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.

It's so great to finally get to chat with you! How are things in your neck of the woods??? It has been a glorious spring day here. It was 82 degrees this afternoon - perfect weather! I suppose in about 3 months it will be 182 degrees. Oh well, I will enjoy this nice weather and not worry about the future. lalalalala

Some lame-brain college student thinks the 2nd amendment doesn't apply anymore.

Gun lovers are not patriots, period

Thanks for putting the words to that song up. Now I can sing to the music.
Just to tell you how bad things are going today , when I typed in the URL to that song I typed in the wrong one and when I clicked on the picture to preview it a porn site came up! Yikes, and it was a really bad one. If I hadn't previewed that picture and song before I posted it I could have become the new Canteen sleazebag. LOL!

I've been trying to find this story all day, I believe it came from one of Who's sources, and I just can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm going to have to try to dredge it up from memory. I think it applies to several earlier posts...!

Sara was well into the fourth month of her pregnancy, was beginning to show, and was starting to get depressed. To make matters worse, Seth had insisted on taking her to the beach this weekend. Sara was so afraid of how he'd see her with all the other pretty girls running around.

Sure enough, a sweet young thing, about 14 years old, came strolling up the beach in her bikini. Seth eyed her for a minute, then turned to Sara. Sara was on the verge of tears, and finally blurted out to Seth, "Oh, I'll never have a figure like hers again!"

With a knowing look in his eye, Seth turned back to the love of his life and simply replied, "That's okay, Darling. Neither will she!"

LOL... Yep, we are kind of like Laurel and Hardy when we are doing things. We watch Bob Villa and think - hey, we can do that and then 2 weeks later we call in the real contractors. hahaha Really though, kneezles is very good and he knows his limits. It's me that thinks I can do anything...hahahaha
