USO Canteen Freeper Style

War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil.  We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.

On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.

William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."

The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.

This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."




We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.



This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.

Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!


"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

I am so HAPPY JR is putting a link on the 'front page' for the Canteen. This is such an awesome site. You gals have put so much work and continued effort into making it truely "Dynomite".

I've got a VCR here to hook up to the big screen TV,,,,are there any volunteers? I can't make my own VCR quit flashing 12:00, so it's not likely I can hook this one up. I thought perhaps someone could bring some movies in.

Boston is my favorite city and Copley Square is so neat. I spent hours and hours at Copley Square.

I love hearing about your freep.I wish I had been there I would have stood right there with you. And FallGuy would have been there with us too.

Thanks again soooooo much.

What's plan B? (^:

How about billboards everywhere that says WE BELIEVE IN OUR TROOPS, WE HAVE TIME, WE ARE PATIENT, AND WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS!

You say that would cost too much, then we'll go on to plan C.

You do have a plan C don't you? :}

When I have an answer to EVERYTHING they spew from their pie-holes, they take to personal insults***

Typical Leftist M.O. They can't argue, so they try to cow you with ever shriller insults. Usually, if you stand your ground and argue calmly their heads will just about explode and they let off with a flurry of their deadliest weapons - "F-U!" "F-U!", "F-U!", repeated ad nauseum.

Keep smiling tolerantly, as you would at an insane elder uncle, and it drives them, invariably, to flee. It's great!

That would be great but that is up to Jim Robinson and the artist Billie to say ok. I could get them done but I would want all proceeds to go to FR to keep it up and running. If it weren't for FR there would be no Snow Bunny. hahhaa

I would be freeping in a veggie garden with FallGuy . giggle

I love camel inside or chocolate covered cherries. All of those you have here look awful good though.

Snow Bunny, Brava! for your post #175. I'm not a Boston Freeper, I just played one on the Canteen thread.(^: The credit for that Freep goes to Electric Strawberry, Little Bill, and friends. It was so great to read about the people in Boston saying thanks to our Freepers for standing up to the peacenitwits.

Florida Freeper hugs. (^:

That's a darn good idea, swheats. Workable, too. Are you volunteering to head up the project? (^:

Wow, having the Canteen banner on the front page. It's certainly a tribute to the great work you and Billie are doing.
