Hundreds of Bikini Models Look to Restore America’s "Fading Patriotism"

Six years after the start of combat operations in Iraq, one volunteer organization is still going strong, and looking to expand.

The Patriot Girls currently operate in 38 states, and hope to spread their unique brand of stars and stripes boosterism to all 50 states by the end of the year, as they train the spotlight on the sacrifices the troops and their families are making.

And how do they attract the spotlight? With their stars-and-stripes bikinis, of course.

"You need to look good in a bikini," says Patriot Girls founder Amy Vitale

According to The Patriot Girls spokesmodel, pro-wrestling diva Amy Vitale, the "American Flag bikini is the standard attire" and the some 200 girls do everything from posing for calendars to creating military-themed merchandise (like men’s and women’s swimwear, posters, and collectible dolls) to waitressing and washing cars in their red-white-and-blue swimsuits.

By promoting events like "Game Day at the Playboy Mansion" for the Super Bowl, a model contest in the Dominican Republic for Spring Break, and an "Official Ring Girls for the WPAL National Golden Glove Championship" in Pennsylvania, the teams of young hotties raise money for soldiers and their families, with funds going to foundations such as Wounded Warrior Project and Operation Troop Appreciation.

Both Missouri gals make me proud to be a Missourian...sigh

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Really don't care for flags being used as clothing.

It smacks of disrespect.

The girl from Tennessee does it right

[chuck_the_tv_out]

see now I know that’s not true.

God Bless America!!!

It's easy to see how they would  :-)  In addition to their Patriotic sentiments and their jaw-dropping physical attributes, they are both giving lovely smiles, something which most of the other girls featured in the Fox News article don't seem to want to do in their photos.  They are delivering Missouri Friendliness, which rounds out the package quite nicely  :-)

[neocon1984]

Thanks.

They are also waaay above the norm.

[Stoat]

Thank you very much for pinging your list  :-)

 

[WakeUpAndVote]

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO AND DO THAT!

[Slings and Arrows]

You’re welcome.

On Saturday [August 13, 2005], actress Raquel Welch will be honored by the Vietnam Veterans of America for entertaining the troops with Bob Hope back in 1968.

Thank you so much for posting....I wasn't aware that she had received that award, which she of course richly deserves.

"America's Favorite Bombshell" ....no such thing as too many Raquel Welch photos, in my view  :-)

I like the chick from PA. We need more sexy modesty in this world.

 

 

I agree.  A lady who knows how to present herself can turn a potato sack into an incredibly sexy photo....showing lots of skin is, in many cases, unnecessary and is used as as an easy crutch.  It's all in the mind of the beholder, and leaving the imagination completely out of the picture is oftentimes counterproductive.

It appears that Miss Spain 2008 may agree:

 

 

Miss Spain, Patricia Alonjo, is judged in the beach wear section of the 2008 Miss World in Durban, South Africa, 29 November 2008

Once can see that her competitors all chose the traditional bikini presentation:

I think Florida would be my first choice, but Alabama would do as well.

The problem with this thread is, not enough pictures.

WE NEED MORE PICTURES :)
 

With threads like this, it's best to bookmark them and check back occasionally, as they 'usually' tend to improve over time with lots of great additions from other FReepers  :-)

"You need to look good in a bikini," says Patriot Girls founder Amy Vitale

OTOH, it is more important to take a good look in their bikini, to make sure they look good.

[cardinal4]

Of course, Missouri has the hottest babes..

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

But what's up with Tennessee?

She looks underage to me. If I had a teenage son, I might send him after her.

[WhirlwindAttack]

Sadly, I am afraid that I have reached the age where I am “too old to vote” for most of those fine, young patriots.

I'm 18 years older than my lovely wife and I have a hard enough time keeping up with her.
Although I can't afford to drive any newer "sport models"
I still like watching them run around.
So like an old dog with bad teeth, I'll just sit on the porch in the sunshine and bark. :)

Is it true that she (Raquel) got her start as a weather girl?

A "weather girl"? You mean like Bernardine Dohrn! :)

Seriously, I did notice the temperature around here seems to increase whenever I look at her photos.

Raquel Welch Biography:

Birth Name: Jo Raquel Tejada
Date of Birth: September 5, 1940

Chosen by Empire magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history in 1995, Raquel Welch had her first taste of the entertainment world by entering beauty contests as a teenager.

Funny, but these links now only exist in 'cache' versions (the originals expired or were taken down).

Wow! 18 years younger. I gotta think that is the ideal female to male ratio. I’d bet that a young woman keeps a guy young! Oh, well. No complaints here. (mutter, mutter).

I simply meant, that under the circumstance a few of these “Patriot Girls”, attractive as they may be, a couple of them are just that “girls”. Whether they are chronologically qualified they haven’t reached their full potential as “Patriot Women”.

Obviously, they’re still blossoming.

[TomasUSMC]

My Patriotic is rising.
