Thanks for the link. I was happy to contribute to Diane Irey in her race against that drooling old fool Murtha; I’ll be happy to contribute to these guys, even if none of them is from California.

[PlainOleAmerican]

No way to say it better!

BRAVO!

[PlainOleAmerican]

Not funny, but sad!

[PlainOleAmerican]

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for that ping!

If I may make a modest proposal here.

I just wrote a check to one of the guys, and will write one every week to another.

If we could forward the web site address to family and friends, we may be able to really get some funds generated. I just sent out the site to everyone I could think of that might be interested in helping them.

HOT OFF THE PRESS.... ANOTHER IRAQ VET NOW RUNNING:

---------------------------------------
Dear Vets for Freedom members:

David Bellavia, Vets for Freedom co-founder, member of our Board of Advisors, and now a candidate for Congress in New York's 26th Congressional District, resigned from our Board of Advisors Monday due to his candidacy. David will continue to be a member of the organization.

David Bellavia is a great American, who served this country courageously on the battlefield in Iraq, receiving the Silver Star and a nomination for the Medal of Honor. But his service didn’t stop there. Here at home, David co-founded Vets for Freedom, as well as a local organization in his hometown of Buffalo, New York for veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder.

Vets for Freedom wishes David luck in what will be a difficult battle for a contested seat, and we are grateful for the voice he continues to give veterans here at home and those serving abroad. Please make sure to visit www.Bellavia2008.com to find out more information.

Give 'em Hell David,

Pete Hegseth
Executive Director
Vets for Freedom

bump!

[alarm rider]

Cool.

What cost is too high? The cost of one seat is too high if it deprives two other seats the money necessary to win them.

[PlainOleAmerican]

Then, we’ll just have to raise enough money for all of them, won’t we.

[Shelayne]

Excellent!

Thanks for the ping!
