Our Ferocious Home-Front Warrior: Melanie Morgan

Most military folks I know, even the Navy Seals and the Marines, admit that no war can be won without a lot of behind-the-scenes home-front help. Of course, there's home-front help, and then there's home-front battle.

A lot of us are cut out for the former, and do our share of helping in myriad ways. Our troop-support efforts are as varied and ingenious as is the spirit of the American people.

But only a few of us seem to be cut out for the home-front battles, those necessary confrontations with the anti-military leftists, the Cindy Sheehans and Medea Benjamins and the summer-soldier malcontents.

We ought to just call it like it is. A home-front warrior is a different breed than the home-front helpers.

She is the equivalent of a female John Wayne. With enormous appeal to the opposite gender, she mixes ferocity, tenacity and meets the foxhole test with feline ease. More like Annie Oakley, with a dose of Lois Lane.

As one of the co-founders of Move America Forward, Melanie has managed to juggle her duties as a daily-talk radio star with regular rumbles with the loony leftists of the anti-military crowd, from Berkeley, CA to Crawford, TX to Washington, D.C. Melanie has gone to the war zone twice, once on a speaking tour directly with our soldiers on the ground in Iraq, and again with in-transit soldiers in Kuwait.

Great article!

When Hillary was 24, she was ensconced safely at Yale Law, planning a political future and studying defensive ploys to aid the Black Panthers.

Maybe Melanie Morgan should be running for President now, and Hillary Clinton should be in boot camp.

I have struggled to frame the words for a link to AmericanThinker.com and author Kyle-Ann Shiver who describes me as the 'John Wayne' for fighters for our heroic troops.
I am truly speechless right now.

We have truly wonderful news to report!
Former First Lady, Nancy Reagan, has announced her endorsement of Move America Forward's "Candy Diplomacy" program that will bring 100,000 bags of American goodwill to the children of Iraq & Afghanistan.
In a statement being released today, Nancy Reagan said that her husband:

"...would often break the ice in meetings by passing around his jar of Jelly Bellys. It had a way of putting a smile on everyone's face and putting them in the mood to work cooperatively. I know the Iraqi and Afghani people will feel the warmth and goodness of the American people when they get to try these treats."

Nancy Reagan believes that President Reagan would have loved this program.
The Jelly Belly candy packages are being sent over to U.S. troops in Iraq & Afghanistan - included with the care packages MAF's supporters are sponsoring.
Please, join this effort by sponsoring care packages and have "Candy Diplomacy" jelly bean packages sent to our troops to give to the children of Iraq & Afghanistan.

These "Candy Diplomacy" packs are being sent as part of our drive to send the largest shipment of care packages to U.S. troops in history.
We are honored to have Nancy Reagan's support for this effort!
