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!

Thanks 4, we are doing fine. We have about a foot of water in our back yard, 4" in the storage building, and I don't know how much maybe 4" of water in our front yard. But believe it or not it could be worse.At lease we didn't have any hail with it. There are people all over that are being evacuated or have water in their homes.

Well my friend, I'm off to bed. I hope y'all have a great night. I will see you tomorrow.

"so I am doing the honors by proxy"

Please tell Pray4USA I said hi.

[SassyMom]

I heard there was a lot of flooding already in Tenn. I hope you all are spared from the rains this time. Maybe Texas got all of it and the clouds will be dry by the time they get your way. :) We can hope.

[WVNan]

Yikes! The rain falls mainly on the plain in Texas, and it's headed this way. We're getting our share already here in the mountain state. And, when we get rain we get floods...big time. Oh....hello everybody.

[whoever]

Oh, Dave, what a precious memory. That is just wonderful.

[SassyMom]

I have to add one more thing to my whining post. I am TRULY thankful that all of that water is in my backyard and not my house. *giggle* I know that it could be much worse.

I'm sorry if I was whiny, I am really tired. Thanks for listening. :)

[4TheFlag]

WOW, that's a BUNCH of water, I would hate to equate all that to snow, UFDA!!!!!!

As long as there are NO snakes in the water...UUGHHHHHH, I HATE snakes (BTW, and you guys don't LAUGH out there or I'll kick your butt, damb, Pray4 protects ME from them)

Embarassing, huh....

[WVNan]

Nighty night SM. Be watchful and don't take the water for granted. It has a nasty habit of sneaking up on you. I'm not sticking around tonight either. I'm turning in early.

[SassyMom]

LOL... kneezles doesn't like snakes either. He had a 9 foot python get into his house. It happened about 20 years ago in Houston. He was NOT a happy camper!

[4TheFlag]

Ohh SM, whining never crossed my mind, you are dealing with nature, and very well I might!! Sleep well and safe my FRiend, SWEET DREAMS......

[4TheFlag]

Hey Nan, where did you sneak in from, darn, i didn't see ya here...How is Jack tonite??

[4TheFlag]

9 foot Python

I would still be running....20 years later....

[HiJinx]

Wow! Reading over 4's shoulder here, looks like you guys may have just barely missed out on a whale of a mess.
Reminds me of the time in DeKalb (near Texarkana) when my sister-in-law's car floated away on the flood!
Ummm...nobobdy on here has bought a gold '94 Toyota Camry from NE Texas, have you? ;^)

[SpookBrat]

Big red suburban here. I'm a Republican, thus an SUV was in order. LOL

[SAMWolf]

I think 4TheFlag has Pray4USA stashed in his basement and using her to keep the snakes away.

[HiJinx]

AwRight!!!! A Chevy Sub-Division!!!!
You're not going to float away any time soon!!

[HiJinx]

Nah, it's too cold up there for snakes now. He only needs Pray4 when it heats up....
Wait a minute, did that come out right...??

[4TheFlag]

Nobody on here has bought a gold '94 Toyota Camry from NE Texas, have you?

Uhhhh, HJ, it didn't have tinted windows did it?

[whoever]

..Ours is the only country deliberately founded on a good idea ..

and based upon Judeo/Christian principles and ideals.

Great county!!!

[HiJinx]

Not after they pulled it out from the crick...!
