QUOTE OF THE DAY: Since we last met, soldiers of the Third Infantry Division have fought in Afghanistan, you have hunted terrorists in Pakistan. You've launched the coalition offensive into Iraq, defeated the enemy in Najaf, you took the Saddam Hussein International Airport and seized his palaces -- and you led the fighting into Baghdad the day the statue of the dictator was pulled down. (Hooah!)

Following that day of liberation, Third ID soldiers have helped the Iraqi people to recover from years of oppression, and to begin the work of building a free Iraq. Two months ago, the Sergeant Major of the Army, Jack Tilley, spoke to the Third ID troops in Fallujah. He said this -- he said, "Be proud of who you are. Stand up straight. You made history." As Commander-in-Chief, I second those words. You made history. You've made our nation proud. And you have earned the Presidential Unit Citation. (Applause.)

(Any picture that makes me smile as much as this one does deserves to be #1!)

It was great hearing the President listing the military VICTORIES! I was cheering him on, as I know this is in answer to the absolutey despicable lies the 9 dwarfs plus the PIAPS are spreading about them. This must have lifted their morale quite a bit. I feel for these boys and girls because they must feel so unappreciated when they hear these attacks on them and their CIC

Thanks dear OWF for the wonderful thread this evening. My thoughts and prayers are always with you and Eric!

I am so angry! My hubby just called me from the Fresno Freepers rally for the troops. It appears someone alerted the police to the fact that a "Hate Group" was out there, so they of course went to investigate! The news came also, so they interviewed Jim Robinson and JustAmy! We knew that an ugly leftist website is threatening to invade our annual tailgate picnic tomorrow, and I have a feeling this is who is behind this despicable act! GRRR! Prayers for us tomorrow if you would please ladies!

Psalm 84

1 How lovely is Your tabernacle,
        O LORD of hosts!
        2My soul longs, yes, even faints
        For the courts of the LORD;
        My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

        3Even the sparrow has found a home,
        And the swallow a nest for herself,
        Where she may lay her young--
        Even Your altars, O LORD of hosts,
        My King and my God.
        4Blessed are those who dwell in Your house;
        They will still be praising You.Selah

        5Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
        Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.
        6As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
        They make it a spring;
        The rain also covers it with pools.
        7They go from strength to strength;
        Each one appears before God in Zion.

        8O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer;
        Give ear, O God of Jacob!Selah
        9O God, behold our shield,
        And look upon the face of Your anointed.

        10For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand.
        I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
        Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
        11For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
        The LORD will give grace and glory;
        No good thing will He withhold
        From those who walk uprightly.

        12O LORD of hosts,
        Blessed is the man who trusts in You!
