Great idea! Nice find.

It came from a buddy of mine that came home from Iraq a couple of months ago. I haven't searched this here on VJ and can't remember if anyone, particularly those most in favor of having this War on Terror (specially when it was THE patriotic thing to do while criticizing it meant you wanted to appease the terrorists), have suggested doing so...

But wow... soldiers are STILL coming home wounded. I am surprised none of these real American heroes have chimed in... but have plenty of time to drone on about Ft Hood and how low Obama bows to the Chinese.

Great idea!

P.s. The people complaining the most about the handling of the Fort Hood tragedy and/or Obama's bows never wore a military uniform.

Great idea - but leave out the politics. The card is good no matter who it comes from. Some people just do it quietly and don't make a fuss.

Hal opened that can of worms & I guess I cut the lid off, but you are correct... sorry &

Indeed- politics should definitely be kept out of this. My gripe is merely observational, that's all, and I agree completely with Major nowhereman on his assessment, albeit on a more statistical level.

Thanks for that Hal!

Of course, you don't have to wait to Christmas to send your regards, thanks and seasonal greetings to the troops abroad ... Xerox is running a FREE service at http://www.letssaythanks.com/

No matter which politics you (or they) support, all our troops deserve some comfort while they're in hostile and foreign lands.
