The quotes all together are awesome. Can't get to the end without misty tears. Thanks.

Yes, a great list of quotes. This one is my favorite. I had seen it earlier in an article but had forgotten it. I'm glad to see it again. It's really beautiful.

"Ajami Saadoun Khlis, whose son and brother were executed under the Saddam regime, sobbed like a child on the shoulder of the Guardian's Egyptian translator. He mopped the tears but they kept coming. 'You just arrived,' he said. 'You're late. What took you so long? God help you become victorious. I want to say hello to Bush, to shake his hand. We came out of the grave.'"

I posted this a bit earlier when looking at pics of the GW today, but it happened again. The relief is overwhelming.

I don't know, but I've had some of the strangest emotions in the last few days. I sat and looked and these quotes - listening to "Have You Forgotten" on repeat. I wept tears of joy. (As a grown man, that doesn't happen too much to me. The last time I remember tears was the week of September 11, 2001.)

I want to thank Jim and all of those other Freepers out there. Together, you've (we've) changed the world. For so long, people like us were told the silent majority wasn't there. Well, it is - and FR proves it.

THANK YOU ALL.
