PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DUNCAN HUNTER’S THANKSGIVING MESSAGE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 21, 2007

CONTACT: Gary Becks (619) 334-1655, dlhunter08@yahoo.com

San Diego, CA - - - As Americans all across the country celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday, Presidential candidate, and current Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Duncan Hunter wanted to remind our nation to also remember to thank our men and women in uniform for their sacrifice and service:

“For the past six years, our nation has been involved in a long battle against those who seek to destroy us. Many brave Americans have fallen during this time, and more than a million have served their country in the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Their sacrifice for our nation is added to the long and distinguished list of those who served their country in battlefields all across the world from Bunker Hill to Gettysburg, from Bellawood to Normandy, from Chosin Reservoir to Khe Sanh, from the rooftops of Fallujah to Kabul, Mosul, Tikrit, and a thousand other places of danger.

“On this Thanksgiving, we express our gratitude to God, for not only giving us this blessed land of freedom, but also the brave men and women willing to leave the security of their homes and families to protect us while we are in our homes with our families.

“On this Thanksgiving Day, the Hunter family will also give thanks for another special blessing, the return of Marine Captain Duncan D. Hunter from Afghanistan. We welcome him home with open arms and a thankful heart. May God bless those who serve and may God continue to bless America.”

Where’s Nancy Pelosi’s Thanksgiving message? Or Murtha’s?

They probably put out a Fall Festival Gathering message or something and we are too politically incorrect to realize that was their version of a Thanksgiving Message :P

Regardless of how we each feel about this war, these are the words I want to hear from a president on Thanksgiving. I want a leader. I want Duncan Hunter.

“...And let me tell you something I’m tired of...

I watched the democrat debate,

I watched them say as my collegue has just said....bring them home, come home...

And it was a race to see who could stampede for the exit the quickest.

And you know something, the Marines in Anbar Province, which is almost half of iraq , have turned that situation around. They brought the communities there on our side - fighting back against al Qaida.

Not a SINGLE democrat candidate paused, in their rush for the exit, to say to our Marines..... GOOD JOB, you guys are fighting and achieving with blood sweat and tears what this
country needs....”

There’s a nice Hunter MySpace Thanksgiving page.

One entry:
“ Nov 20 2007 6:42 PM

Sir, I worked for your son in Fallujah. I am back in Iraq now and want to know how I can help your campaign out here. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

And another:

“Happy Thanksgiving sir, we’re behind you all the way... we can still do this thing. We HAVE to. It’s morning in America ONE MORE TIME.

You're back!! I wish my fellow Romney supporters would be reinstated. They did far less egregious things than you, pissant. :-)

I see Duncan is winning the new FR poll! Woo Hoo!

I do like Hunter. Most of his fans are nice too.

Just think, this man writes his own speeches. This is WHO he is and WHAT he stands for! There are no scripts that need to be handed to him. He is as strong as they come and exudes leadership. The best candidate we have had in a LONG time. The man we are in desperate need for.
