Tell me that there are not patriots in those young ranks and I will call you a fool.

Thank you God, You have done a fine job of preserving "The Patriot".

My NCO son's private email address has always been "mfpatriot@xxxx". His mother didn't care for the mf part but I understand his feelings.

Is it so easy to defend our troops on the homefront by finding and getting news out to others using the net. We have to. The press isn't.

Hear, hear!! I really appreciate your efforts in finding and posting the good news. God bless and protect our wonderful troops. The USO Canteen FReeper Style's doors have been open since October 7, 2001. I hope you got to read and listen to FReeper txradioguy's first hand reports from Baghdad. More of our good guy reports. Thanks, again, to you for the effort of finding and posting the GOOD that our military does that the media refuses to report.

**The bad guys are terrified of our . . .warriors. Who knew?


Think Rush knows this yet? Anyway, I'm gonna start e-mailing.

I've posted on other threads that, pretty soon, a lot of liberals and socialist dems are going to have egg all over their faces.

The "public" was/has been so used to klinton bawlin' and squalin' all over the TV, explaining every little thing (uh, if you can call his mealy-mouthed words explanation), that they do not understand that when a president is right, moral, and ethical, the same president KNOWS the truth will come out soon enough.

Brilliant! Bush will let everyone of the naysayers get their foots firmly in their mouths. . .then show the proof, the truth, the american way. Liberals will be known for what they are _______________(fill in the blank yourself! , what they are is many things)

Oberman's show found people to speak negatively about the war in Iraq and the administration. This is in Private Jessica Lynch's home town where they're preparing a hero's welcome!

That's just wrong.

I think of David Asman and his son, often, too. Brave men, both.

You have mail.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

About as verifiable as anything the mass media puts out.

Not true, john. This one's legit. It also validates briefings and reports from the DoD, letters from the troops to family members, military news articles and blogs from Iraq - as well as the President, Tony Blair, Conde Rice, SOD Rumsfeld and 3 months of CENTCOM reports.

You can check the trustworthiness of a source. The military knows how important it is to clearly communicate the facts - their lives depend on it.

The press, on the other hand....you know the history. Click on my Freepname and check out the links at my home page.

This piece was just linked over at AndrewSullivan.com. Everybody be on their best behavior, we're about to get company!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Wow. Thanks, gridlock. Thank you, Andrew Sullivan!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Think Rush knows this yet?

I think he joined the battle yesterday.

I'm gonna start e-mailing.

Thank you!

[Rebelbase]

Bump. I hope its a legit story, a very good read.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Tonkin linked John's radio broadcast to this thread - #15. I listened to him report on Paul Wolfowitz's trip - live - from Baghdad yesterday - awesome. (^:

[windchime]

Bump.

[Jessamine]

Phenomenal. Thank you for posting this. Bump!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

LG, would you mind assuring Rebelbase and other that the letter's legit (leaving out names, ranks and serial numbers, units, locations and e-maill addresses of course)? (^;

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

You're welcome, Jessamine. Please pass it on.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Can you handle any more good news today? Andrew Sullivan linked this letter to his websight. A few more people will get a clearer picture of the troops, Iraq...and the press. What a day!

[MattAMiller]

This matches what I'm hearing from the guy I know over there. And he's actually a bit of natural born griper.

[Radix]

I can also attest to this. I could almost have written the exact same post.

The media has tried in every conceivable way to undermine this Administration, and the war. The only thing that they are really accomplishing is that they are firming up the resolve of a lot of people who really do care about our nation, and importantly the morale of our troops.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Thanks for your contribution, Matt.
