There is never a life wasted in the defense of freedom, or to liberate the oppressed. Freedom is something God meant to be passed around, and if it took sacrifice, than so be it. Liberty is much more valuable than any other thing on the face of this earth. Money can't buy it, and lies can't keep it. Truth and justice are it's leaves. Happiness is it's root.

Then, the left hook, the last stanza of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic"..."As He died to make men Holy, I will die to make men free".

He didn't say much, I think he was pissed. I don't care! The other guys in the foursome are on my side anyway and shook my hand.

That's what I stand for!

Do you mind if I commit to memory what you said to your friend? Between now and next November, we all have to speak up. The rule of polite society not to discuss religion or politics has to be amended between now and November. The future course of our country really depends upon have the right people in office. We have to consider ourselves patriots when we challenge the assumptions of our leftist acquaintances.

Whenever I felt down, Ceegar Man made my day. I hope we can do something to lift his spirits. (Tell his wife, I think she's a "lucky Lady", despite all. She has his heart.

Any address would be appreciated!

Thank God for heroes like Gunnery Sgt. Popaditch. Prayers for a speedy recovery. Thanks to him and his family for their sacrifices in our ongoing war on terrorism.

(and I still don't know how you get a screen saver on your cell phone !) I am just thankful that I can usually make/receive phone calls w/mine (not too technically suave).

Prayers for him. I just emailed my "military friendly" email list..as many have commented on Ceegar's pix on my profile page..

Have a nice holiday Jackie.. I am going to a welcome home party for a freeper son that just returned from Iraq. Looking forward to that. Real Flesh with real stories & not the media spin/crap.

I just got off the telephone with the very kind Dolores Popaditch, Gunnery Sgt Nick Popaditch's mother. She stated that GS Popaditch better known to us as Ceegar Guy was still in Germany at the present. She wanted to know if we were some anti-war group. I assured her that we were not, and informed her of our name and who we are. She informed me that they are Republicans.

I began to tell her how we had been following Nick and before I could finish she referred to the April 9th photo. Mrs. Popaditch said that this had been the third time that Nick was in Iraq, this time to relieve the army guys. We chitchat for awile, and then I asked if she thought that it would be okay to send cards to Mr. and Mrs. Nick Popaditch, in which she replied, sure and gave me their address.

If you wish to send this brave American hero a card, etc., please e-mail me and include your FR name so that I will know that you are a member of FR.

I do not want to post their address on the net.

Thanks to Nick, April, and to Nick's parents for giving so much in order to help others around the world.

Most excellent work TK.. and great you talked to his mom.. I am sure that you helped her by your words. Moms are always moms, as you know... and they will always be our "little boys" even as big hunky, marines.

BTW..how is your "little boy" doing?

EMAIL....
