Spirit of America -- The Denouement I
Look at these numbers ! Castle Argghhh! Fighting Fusileers for Freedom! $16,714.49 The Victory Coalition $13,092.44 Liberty Alliance [the Liberty alliance has a nice round number, there -- does that mean they don't have any cents?] $6,060Grand Blogger Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $35,866.93
How very encouraging is that? Look around at the blogs in the links below -- you'll find an amazing variety of people on all sides of political questions, life questions, from all over the country and beyond. Ok - no moonbats, but still -- a wide variety. These people have come together, given of their time and energy, given of their precious possessions and talents, given of their humor and goodwill. All to help another amazing group of people, Marines, SeeBees, Air Force, Special Forces, and many others to improve lives and create a place where free people can prosper and grow.U.S. citizens serving abroad, civilian and military, have always been the strategic "face" of America. They are our country's front line representatives in the world's most troubled places. Increasingly, they are charged with maintaining and building peace in countries where the needs, and the challenges to stability, are enormous. The success of those serving America abroad depends, in part, on their ability to tangibly demonstrate American goodwill.
To do this effectively, resources are needed. That's where the bloggers have come in.
The three competing blogger alliances above have decided to work together toward a significant goal: we would like to raise our donation level to $50,000. This particular push will be over at midnight tonight. While you can give anytime, and I'll be leaving the link up on the side, now is a particularly good time to dig deep and join other Americans in expanding the freedoms we take for granted -- human freedom in the world.
Bloggers are offering some pretty unusual premiums and items at auction for donations. Why not meander through the links below and see if you can find yourself some further encouragement to donate. And read the blogs you find, too. That will be your lasting gift to yourself.
