I read here quite a bit but post very little so I doubt if many (or anyone) will recognize me, but I'm concerned about something that the Dummies are up to and don't know exactly where to post this (or if I even should)--
Don't know if anyone's aware, but the Pentagon has put together a TV channel that's intended to keep the people in the military and their families informed--From what I've been able to determine, they're making it available free of charge to any sattelite company willing to carry it--Sounds like a right fine idea to me in order to keep people in touch and help families stay informed about what the troops are doing and, hopefully, help those who are "over there" to feel a little more connected--
Some Bozo over on DU, however, is mustering the forces over there to make a big stink with DishNetwork because they've decided to carry this new station--True to form, they seem determined to undermine the troops and the war effort in general--Gawd, I wish they'd manage to get a life--
Where would be a good and/or appropriate place here to post this information to, hopefully, get some DishNetwork subscribers (of whom I happen to be one) to voice their support of this good program?--I generally ignore the bizarre "urgent requests" over there for everyone to "DU" this or that stupid online poll, but I'd hate to see that bunch of weirdos to have an adverse impact on this--
Any suggestions as to how I can best get the word out?--Thanks bunches--C
I guess that means it would be wrong of me to question them sending roses to Bag Lady Boxer on Valentine's Day to thank her for calling Condi Rice a liar and then taking credit for being nice to the soldiers at Walter Reed when Boxer sent the flowers over to the hospital?
Personally I think sending money to charities that actually help the wounded soldiers and their families would have been a better use of their money
But hey .. what do I know .. I'm just a right winger
