We went back to D.C. to show our support for the troops with Families United and had a great time. This trip full filled a dream of mine and my wife. It was a great pleasure to meet Kristen and just no body on this trip. It also was great to counter Code pink and the Iraq vets against the war.

We start this trip on a good note flying to D.C. on this plane.

It was a good omen to start our trip.

The first morning we get to hear from Congressman Baird that is taking heat from his own party for his veiws on the troop surge.

After tours of the Pentagon and Arlington Cemetery we had quite a big day coming the next. A breakfast at the White House. This was a surprise and a dream come true, It also was fun to see Kristen there and 600 hundred Families of Gold Stars mothers and Blue Star Mothers and Fathers having a great time with our CIC.

Here is Kristen giving the Vice President a SURGE TO VICTORY BUTTON.

This next one is of my wife and a gold star mother getting a dream come true , a thank you from the CIC and it shows.

This was a trip of a life time. I even had some fun debating with the Head of the Iraq Vets against the war. This made our trip complete and the best ever.

Thanks for doing that for us.

I was sitting in my unit in Iraq (again) and surfed through channels. VOA was broadcasting the Gathering of Eagles rally, and it was great to see/hear Kristen, Raoul, and the families fight back!

Pinging to some DC Freepers who were mentioned in the article.

{PS: What the heck kinda spell checker did you buy, JimRob? This one is telling me that "Freeper" is not on its list of recognizable words. I know, I know. If we donate more $$ at Freepathon time, you can afford to buy a REAL spellchecker. :-) :-) )
