To our fellow Americans:
We have given much thought to the values and characteristics that make a great athlete. Our lives have been spent trying to run farther, push further, and jump higher than the person beside us, or across the field of our chosen sport. With years of training and exhaustive competition beneath our belts, we have identified the values necessary to compete and win--values like personal strength, determination, a sense of fair play and faith.
The same qualities that make a great athlete make a great President--the determination to do what is right, regardless of the latest polls, the personal strength to bear the weight of the nation on your shoulders, and the faith that a higher power will direct the actions of good people.
We see in President Bush these same qualities.
In 2001, our nation was attacked without cause or provocation. The President's values saw us through those dark days after the terrorist attack. The economy was rocked by the dual blows of the terrorists' cowardly action and the reckless disregard of the rules by a few rogue executives. But President Bush's decisive, principled leadership has moved America forward, and today our nation is safer and our economy is strong and getting stronger.
The fight against terrorism takes decisiveness. It takes continued support for our troops and first responders. But most importantly, it takes courage and inspirational leadership in the White House. In these critical times, our President has had the courage to stand up and do what's right.
For that and for his unwavering character, we choose George W. Bush as our President for the next four years. He is a leader we can depend on to make the tough decisions and the right decisions. Please join us in supporting a candidate of courage, President Bush--a leader who backs our troops defending our nation and shares our values.
Sincerely,
Roger Staubach is one of my all-time personal heroes. He is the reason I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan even though I've never been to Dallas, and the closest I ever came to Texas was to drive through the panhandle on my way from New York to Los Angeles years ago.
I didn't know who to root for tonight... the Astros or the Cardinals.
After seeing Beltran and Biggio's names here, now I know.
Go ASTROS!!!
Isn't he a Chinese citizen?
Ummmmm he signed it dude.
Sometimes it's good to hit 'View Replies' before responding.......
Yep, I got it.
Mary Lou Retton, Lynn Swann and Roger Staubach -- alright!
Kerri Strug... interesting. She was the one that won the team gold for the U.S. on a bad ankle. Tough girl.
They got Spielman. That covers it.
New campaign slogan.
KILLER BEES FOR BUSH!
Let's vote, too!
- Ernie Banks
:-)
If he were a Dem, it'd be 'Let's vote two'.
I'm very happy to see Biggio and Beltran on there. Go Astros!
Do you realize that at the conclusion of todays Cards/Astros game we might have two fall match-ups between Houston and Boston?
One match-up might be spread over seven baseball games. One match-up takes place on the first Tuesday in November.
Go Astros! Go GWB!
what class. but Beltran? arrrg!!!!! now i have good feelings for him as well. i just wish it could have waited until the after tonight. oh well, some things are more important i suppose.
GO CARDS!!!!
Don't forget Jim Kelly, JC Watts, 99% of NASCAR and....Don King!
Ernie would say: "It's so nice, let's vote for Bush twice!" off his baseball saying when he came out on a really nice sunshine day, "It's so nice, let's place twice."
WOW! That almost feels biblical. /goose bumps!
