New Yorker BUMP!

My friend, who collaborates with GOE, sent me this in an e-mail a few days ago.

I think their needs to be a specific addressee in your letter/card though.

Edit: I think there needs to be an addressee to forward the letter to, but there are some people who are screening the letters, then forwarding them to the soldiers.

Sad

From your link:

Aides to Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., are offering to accept letters, screen them through the U.S. Capitol mail operation, and get them to members of the armed forces.

To send one through Senator Sessions' office, you must include the notation "Christmas Cards for Our Troops," sending it to:

U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions
335 Russell Senate Office Building
Washington, D.C. 20510-0104
Attention: Christmas Cards for Our Troops

Thank you Senator Sessions!!!

YOU are one of only 3 worth anything in the Senate.
God Bless you, sir and have a very Merry Christmas!

No, this is not the case with these cards. No names are required. You may write Hero, Troop, Service Member, Military Member or leave blank.

MAF are handling the mailing and delivery of the cards with respect to this article.

Okay, now I understand.

The Soldiers and Sailors' Club is a great New York-American Institution.

It provides low cost, temporary accomodation to servicemen and women returning home.

It's also where the NYYR Club meets every month.

He's definitely one of a kind!

I think we should all be thankful that there are men like him-as well as Inhofe, Coburn, Barrasso, DeMint and Vitter-still left in an otherwise unremarkable institution.

Bumping this thread

Anybody know if this is still going on, despite possible adverse weather for tomorrow?

Glad we got that cleared up. ;*)

THANK YOU for the link to that great article. I did not know this existed. Awesome!

Q: In closing, sir, what would you like to say to our men and women now serving in the armed services?

A: Well, first of all, I do that everyday of my life that the Good Lord gives me, I say something good to them. However, if I could speak to the general public, I would tell them to listen to our soldiers, hear what they have to say, be understanding and compassionate.

You know, the irony in all of this is that they enlisted, so they are where they want to be, they went there for our country. I do not have to tell them to hang in there because I know they will, but they have asked me to tell everyone to hang in there, get behind them, and support them.

Do you hear that CONgress???

As far as I know.

GOE doesn't seem like the type of organization that will be deterred by a little inclement weather-even the horrible weather we've had in NYC for the past couple of weeks.

Hi Justa! I LOVE Sen. Sessions! He tells it like it is....I just love when he uses facts to challenge the Dims on the Senate floor. I’m sorry I can’t vote for him, but, a while ago, I sent donation for his reelection campaign.

If only we had A LOT more Senators like Sessions!

YES!!!!!

I just spoke with the MAF folks. They are just arriving at their hotel now.

The rally will be held regardless of weather!

Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet...will keep them from their mission!

Have a great time!

Yeah, that's what I suspected.

Weather Update

I'm going to try and head out there early, although I don't know how well mass transit is going to be running tomorrow.
