God Bless Our Military
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dutchess, Aquamarine; The Mayor or DollyCali and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation’s leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.

~~~~~~~~~~   ~~~~~~~~~~

We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.

Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

thank you"dutchess"

Thanks for another amazing essay. You nailed it again, John--there will have to be a commission to investigate the 9-11 Commission! What incompetence

[Billie]

Bravo, you two. If we could first rid America of dem dam dims, how much easier ridding the World of *terror* would be. Oh, what a day of rejoicing that would be.

[tuliptree76]

Good morning. And thank you.

[DollyCali]

Outstanding job ms D!!!!! great graphics ... (poor JH2 when my turn comes up next)... selection wise & presentation wise. And John wonderful essay as we have come to expect. Thank you.

The little boy is pledge is wonderful.. new one?

I am down to the wire with getting things ready for "hopefully getting mom out".. pray for us FRiends..

[Mama_Bear]

Frontpage magazine nails it: "The movements of Atta prior to the terrorist attack as detailed by 'Able Danger,' if acknowledged, would support statements by the Czech Republic that link Atta, and hence the al-Qaeda attack on America, irrefutably to Saddam's covert intelligence operatives..."

Frontpage nails it, and our JH2 nails it, once again! And our dutchess presents it so well. Wonderful illustrations! Succinct and thought provoking commentary. Thank you both for another great read.

This outcome is so repugnant to the hard Left that it will justify even the most extraordinary suppression of evidence or promulgation of an outright lie in order to achieve its ends."

Nuff said.

Well, not Nuff said IMHO.

Our local "news"paper carried one item last week. No follow-up stories like they would do if Bush were connected to this Omission Commission travesty.

Methinks it's time for the House to convene another impeachment inquiry of BillyJeff. Two impeachment bricks attached to his treasonist legacy is sounds good to me. GRRRRRR!!!

Unfortunately, there are no national holidays celebrated today.

However, some of the events that occurred on this day include:

Virginia Dare, granddaughter of Gov. John White of the Colony of Roanoke, becomes the first English child born in the Americas in 1587.

Explorer Meriwether Lewis was born on August 18, 1774 near Charlottesville, Virginia.

French astronomer Pierre Jules César Janssen discovered helium while analysing the chromosphere during a total solar eclipse in India in 1868. This was the first element detected in space before being found on Earth.

The Wizard of Oz premiered on this day in 1939.

More found here.

1983 - Hurricane Alicia hits the Texas coast, killing 22 people and causing over USD $1 billion in damage (1983 dollars).

I remember Alicia; it peeled the roof off of my school's gym.
