And now a word from our REAL Sponsors of Free Speech

The Men and Women who serve,
and have served, our country
are the ones who make sure that
the Politicans and Judges are free to do their job.

We would not have a US Supreme Court
without the protection of the Military.

Politicans and Judges are safe
because of the Military who protect them.

TEST : Call your Senator or Congressman's office
AFTER 5 PM, or on the weekend.
IF you speak to an actual person, ask who's in charge today?

Now look up the phone number
of your local military base.
Call that number 24/7
and ask the live voice you get
to speak with the person in charge.

Send a Thank You while you enjoy your Freedom also.


You will stay right where you are on the thread.
Please take a moment and Thank a Service Man or Woman.

Thank you, Tonk:

You're most very welcome.

Sorry I missed the FRiday Night FReep (01/27/06) due to an early start time (Zero Dark Thirty 0500) for my Reserve unit's Weekend Drill.

The Friday prior to the Drill Weekends are a bit hectic and begin at Noon instead of the Night Shift's usual 3pm. Had to work a little late due to getting three planes and spares ready to fly early Saturday morning.

It sounds like a fine time was had by all (Except the Pink-Os)

Should see you FRiday the 3rd!

Jack.

You said it brother.

Remember who guards your freedom

I want you to close your eyes and picture in your mind the soldier at Valley Forge, as he holds his musket in his bloody hands.

He stands barefoot in the snow, starved from lack of food, wounded from months of battle and emotionally scarred from the eternity away from his family surrounded by nothing but death and carnage of war.

He stands tough, with fire in his eyes and victory on his breath. He looks at us now in anger and disgust and tells us this...

I gave you a birthright of freedom born in the Constitution and now your children graduate too illiterate to read it.

I fought in the snow barefoot to give you the freedom to vote and you stay at home because it rains.

I left my family destitute to give you the freedom of speech and you remain silent on critical issues, because it might be bad for business.

I orphaned my children to give you a government to serve you and it has stolen democracy from the people.

It's the U. S. Serviceman not the reporter who gives you the freedom of the press.

It's the U.S. Serviceman not the poet who gives you the freedom of speech.

It's the U.S. Serviceman not the campus organizer who allows you to demonstrate.

It's the U.S. Serviceman who salutes the flag, serves the flag, whose coffin is draped with the flag, who made it possible for the protester to burn the flag!!!

"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need."
