"America's Patriotic Email"...."GOD BLESS AMERICA..LAND THAT I LOVE..STAND BESIDE HER..AND GUIDE HER."....WELCOME To the Thursday "Field of Dreams Today"....The Email that is PROUD to be an AMERICAN!!!........
HOMEPLATE ......Senator Obama has had so much trouble over a flag pin....He was wearing one earlier in the year but removed it several months ago..saying "He didnt need to wear a pin to be Patriotic"...Now that;s true..But in the process he has insulted the millions of Americans that do display the Red...White and Blue.....About 13 months ago my very good friend Rick Gunter - Publisher - Editor of the Crewe-Burkeville Journal wrote a story on the last days before my family turned over our family business to the new owner....You see we held events at Clay's The Graham Retirement Center for just about every patriotic holiday...Memorial Day..Veterans Day....July 4th...Labor Day..etc..We brought vets in
from all over and always had a vet speaker.....We kept our facilty decorated in Red..White and Blue year round...I even challenged other area businesss folks to do similiar events..While aome didnt...If You Start It..Hopefully they will come.....Anyway back to Rick..This was our last official Clay's event.....Rick wrote "......The 17 year former pro baseball executive has painted Nottoway Red..White and Blue since arriving in 2002..." What a compliment!....But Obama insulted millions of us....FIRST ...It just makes sense that we show support while we fight 2 wars......Also it makes you feel good about being born in the USA...I often Thank God that I was not born in France.....Dalfur.....Germany....Iran....The former USSR - France was another France joke).....Since I didnt serve in the military I have always been so in awe of them..I was a baseball executive and know we entertained thousands of people...But folks lets face it WE WERE NOT CURING CANCER.....Our
soilders risk their lives evertyday...EVERYDAY,,Support the wars or not you must support our troops....In my years in baseball a military man or woman NEVER paid to watch one of my baseball games...At Clay's soilders were welcome to eat with us anytime they wanted..Good Home Cooking.....Barrack I guess all of us are "Bitter..Clinging to our Guns and religion".....But you have insulted many of us..All you had to say was I love this country..I am a Patriot..I think each American should decide for themselves......But you are elite...progressive...;Liberal..Far left caracter could not..Your wife says we are a "Mean Country" in 2008....So I will keep the candle in the window for our soilders..I will keep the red white and blue up...I will be part of "Adopt a Platoon".....'"Wounded Warriors"....."Adopt a Soilder"..Etc..Actually evertone of you all here in the Field are part of one of the Adopt a Platoon,,...Senator,,,,You should be ashamed sir .....Can you just repeat
what the POPE did several times last week 'GOD BLESS AMERICA"...."GOD BLESS AMERICA"?...Its an easy thing..But I bet you will never do it..and that is very sad.........PULL THE TARP..GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA......
THINGS THAT BOTHER ME.....The last few week I have had some trouble sleeping the entire night through...After 4 months AT TARA - Colony..I am back as a CEO ts iN EXILE AT TARA - Riverridge.....So at 2 in the morning I see some interesting stuff..INFOMERCIALS.....TV Preachers....etc..I love FOX ..But at that time it is the 5th time since 8pm that Bill OReiley....So I get to DR Phil...Dr Phil is not a MD...He has a PHD...He also was a jury consultant before Oprah discovered him.....I know he is in love with himself....I know he creates half the issues that he brings up...For ratings..I know that he is 57 and sometimes a bully....He's probably a good guy..But the show sometimes riivals Jerry
Springer...So feeling bad lately and not sleeping..I will settle for the Geroge Foreman blender....
TODAY'S IRONY...Today is small business week.....John Kerry was praiswing this week on the Senate floor...Maybe he should have found this fondness for small business in 2004...But he is ELITE..."Progressive"...Liberal.....WOW..Sounds like Sen O......
THIS DAY in 1981...IBM introduced the first Personal Computer...And Ronald Reagan was changing the WORLD....
Today we start the President Reagan Award of the day for positive people and events...Today we salute the folks at Adopt a platoon - see below -
Today's HMMMMM IDEA OR PERSON......Senator JOHN MCCAIN...Someone I support for President...The North Carolina GOP is working on down ticket races..They produced the Wright -Gate Obama problem.....They pointed out
that both dems for Governor had endorsed the "O" man ....Sen McCain has denounced the ads...They have demanded they not run the ads..The Nat GOP has told them to pull it....Sen McCain I like you...You are an American hero...But the NC GOP has every right to run these ads..We conservatives really like States Rights..and frankly YOU MAY WELL WIN THE PRESIDENCY...But in the South your coattails WILL NOT keep us from having an awful year in the House and Senate......For this you are our first HMMMMM winner....

Problems Viewing this Email? Click Here.Dear AdoptPlatoon Supporters,This will be a short, but an URGENT e-mail update from AdoptaPlatoon. Our Troops need us … We have Troops newly deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan waiting to be supported with incoming mail from “home”. If you have the ability to pen-pal or adopt an individual Soldier or send support to a platoon of newly deployed Troops, please let us know ASAP. We have received thousands of new support requests from our Troops asking for individual, as well as platoon support and it’s so sad knowing they wait for the American people to embrace them.

We have received thousands of new support requests from our Troops asking for individual, as well as platoon support and it’s so sad knowing they wait for the American people to embrace them.Now that the holidays are over, support has dropped considerably, but our Troops continue to be deployed and they continue to serve on our behalf. PLEASE consider supporting another Soldier or two. Mail is so important to these men and women who serve so proudly and it truly has a positive effect on their morale when they know they have not been forgotten! If you can pen-pal with a soldier and send letters, cards and news from home, please let us know ASAP! Also, as an FYI, when you adopt a soldier and send a MONTHLY CARE PACKAGE, please know that what you send does not have to be expensive….Gum, candy, toiletries, a pair of socks, plus a letter or card means more to a soldier than words could ever describe. Again, just knowing they stand for “Mail Call” and have their named called for mail is valuable to them.CURRENT SUPPORTERS: Please know that we take extra care with our Soldiers’ mail safety so be sure to read the info below for CURRENT SUPPORTERS requesting another Soldier(s):CURRENT SUPPORTERS: Please know that we take extra care with our Soldiers’ mail safety so be sure to read the info below for CURRENT SUPPORTERS requesting another Soldier(s):
