U.S. FORCES FUND, A GREAT CAUSE, A GREAT COMMUNITY, A GREAT COUNTRY (P)






















Every once in a while I stray from bashing Barack Obama, especially when it affords me the chance to showcase things that are right with this country... Here is a link to what I consider to be exactly what is right with this country... This is an organization that was started here locally in S.W. Florida, not that there probably aren't similar groups, but this is the one near and dear to me...

The first (unfortunately, won't be the last) recipient of the great work this organization is performing will be Pfc. Corey Kent who was severely injured only weeks after being deployed to Afghanistan... The beautiful part, if there could be any in this situation, is the overwhelming support from our local community... Our local 9.12 group was fortunate enough to have Trey Radel, one of the founders of U.S. Forces Fund come speak at our meeting this past Saturday about their efforts to help Pfc. Kent... As Trey was speaking, and elaborating on exactly what the goal of the organization is, it suddenly hit me, we are Americans, it's what we do... It is in our DNA and it is what separates us from the rest of the world...

Please visit the website, open your hearts and your wallets and donate to this worthy cause...

NOT RACIST... NOT VIOLENT... JUST NO LONGER SILENT...
