If you support the policies and character that our current President, George W. Bush, stands for, please drive with your headlights on during the day this coming Sunday.
If you support John Kerry, please drive with your headlights off at night.
Join us at the rally we call:
What: A peaceful remembrance of those with whom we served in Vietnam - those who lived and those who died.
We will tell the story of their virtues and how that contrasts with the lies told by John Kerry.
When: Sunday, Sept. 12, 2004 @ 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM EDT
Where: The West Front of the U.S. Capitol Building, Washington, DC
All Vietnam veterans and their families and supporters are asked to attend. Other veterans are invited as honored guests. This will be a peaceful event--no shouting or contact with others with different opinions. We fought for their rights then, and we respect their rights now. This is NOT a Republican or a pro-Bush rally. Democrats, Republicans and independents alike are warmly invited.
Our gathering is to remember those with whom we served, thereby giving the lie to John Kerry's smear against a generation of fine young men. B.G. "Jug" Burkett, author of "Stolen Valor," will be one of our speakers. Jug has debunked countless impostors who falsely claimed to be Vietnam veterans or who falsely claimed awards for heroism. Jug recommends that we refrain from dragging fatigues out of mothballs. Dress like America, like you do every day. Dress code: business casual, nice slacks, and shirt and shoes. No uniform remnants, please. Unit hats OK.
Selected members will wear badges identifying them as authorized to speak to the media about our event. Others who speak to the media will speak only for themselves.
The program will be controlled in an attempt to stay on-message. Speakers are encouraged not to engage in speculative criticism of John Kerry but (1) to stick to known and undisputed facts about John Kerrys lies while (2) reminding America of the true honor and courage of our brothers in battle in Vietnam.
Send this announcement to 10 or more of your brothers! Bring them by car, bus, train or plane! Make this event one of pride in America, an event you would be proud to have your mother or your children attend.

Good morning Sam and Snippy!
For those who would care to know why 'Booneslick' is named thus I will elucidate. West of the Mississippi salt was an expensive and rare commodity. It was a neccessary ingredient in the preservation of foodstuffs and in curing hides along with supplimenting a heathy diet for people and livestock. Naturally occuring saline springs are quite rare and the places where they do occur are commonly called 'licks' since wildlife would frequent these places to obtain the salt. Booneslick was one of these places and the springs there produced a high quality salt in amounts that made their commercial operation viable. I have been there several times and the springs are still as active as they were in Daniels day. The stone evaporation pans are still in situ as well as one can see the foundations of the storehouses and coummuity structures. You can see the general layout of this very important center of pioneer commerce. The setting is fairly rugged but it is a typical Missouri landscape, lush and forested. The springs number at least four fairly large outlets. and are at the bottom of a deep cool hollow. The plants there are of the sort that thrive in a salty microenvionment (pitcher plants, sundews etc.) and are protected by law due to their rarity. If you are traveling thru Missouri I encourage you to take the time to visit this place.
