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.

What's a slipped cog? Whatever it is, I'm sure it fits me to a "T". LOL I've been trying to exercise more often because I have that nagging post c-section tummy, if ya know what I mean. LOL After this morning, I think I'll keep my tummy. Screw sit ups.
To: Snow Bunny

Oh yes, it was a fun day.

You've been huggin' and kissin' on me all day. LOL
To: ST.LOUIE1
Hahahahahahaha, feels good though, LOL!!!
I'm glad too, Louie!
To: Severa
"All in all, he's just glad to be home."
HOORAY!!!!!!
To: Victoria Delsoul
Here you go. :-)
To: Snow Bunny
Just for you. : )
Although, Sam keeps you so well supplied...you may already have it.
If so, it's the thought that counts, right? : )
To: Victoria Delsoul

You may see me everywhere you go from now on. LOL

I have to admit that those remarks by a certain person have "gotten under my skin." How dare someone make snide comments about the USO Canteen and the fine people who come here each day. /rant> Just a bitter person. When Louie and I talked about scathing emails - we've both been on the receiving end of them.

You're welcome. :-)

"Just a bitter person."
Yeah I know.
I've heard that this person has also made fun of the USO Canteen on a certain other thread.
That person better hope I don't ever see that.
I don't tolerate any disrepect towards our military OR towards those who support them.
The unamed person can take this as a reminder that I have my radar tuned in.
To: SpookBrat
LOL! Sort of like a temporary brain fart? LOL! Just kidding. Heck at least you can ask them to cut away the extra when you have a c-section! Tell me what to do with the extra stretched out skin I have! Also, just kidding!
Yup....should be doing some extra exercise myself one day, but I agree...screw the sit ups! :)

I don't know how to put it on your doll like Billie and Lori have it.
Maybe Billie will oblige us. : )
Unless you want the scrolling kind. : )
Louie is feeling more popular by the moment. LOL Gosh, I think I'm going to be jealous. LOL! What are we talking about - the little slightly transparent "Louie" on the gif? Geez, I quit putting those on mine after the first dozen or so!
Actually, Victoria - I tried to get Louie to do it (know he can because he's put my name on some of them - he just won't do a Louie signature thingie) :). It's very easy - go HERE and you can add it really easily! I promise!
