I have made a commitment to myself. As long as Swiftvets keeps up the fight I intend on helping. Every two weeks is payday and for me it will also be Save America Day. I will donate something every payday until the election.

It's two weeks later and it is that time again.

I am posting to this same thread so that others in this forum might consider the "every payday" as a possble idea for themselves. The steady flow of donations must be very disheartening to the Kerry camp.

Anyway, like I said just an idea.

P.S. Doesn't it feel good to be a part of something that is so important to the future of our nation and the welfare of our families?

Question What do you think? Should we make massive donations right after Bill O'Reilly's interview with John O'Neil to send a message to the media as to who the American people find the most credible? Huh? Wadya think?

I was planning on making a donation this week but I thought maybe i should wait 'till imediately after the interview. Or maybe i could split in half. Any ideas ?

I hope that this post is not annoying to some because that is not my intention. My intention is to promote an idea. This is my fourth biweekly donation done on my payday. It's easy and I feel great doing it.

Let's keep SBVT funded and complete the mission of keeping John Kerry out of the White House and informing America the truth about our Vietnam veterans service.

My finances are more sporatic but I am donating whenever money comes in. Next donation will be in about 3 days.

If you have friends and family that are supportive of the SBVT ask them to make a donation too even just a few dollars. Some people don't realize yet that every donation no matter how small is a significant help.

My roommate has been oblivious to the entire election and all the issues surrounding it but she contributed when I reminded her that her Dad was a Vietnam vet and asked her how he would be reacting to the SBVT if he were alive. She said "he'd be right there with them, do you have a link to the donation page?"

I'm not offended by this post either.

I decided to give every pay day until the election myself. It's a small donation as I'm the bread winner with 2 small children at home.

If I could give more I would and I have never felt this way about a cause. My sleep is interrupted and I wake up thinking what can I do to help? How can I make a difference? Who do I need to spread the word to?

I know of a few other people that feel the same way and they are people who don't get upset by this stuff. This time it's different and more important then ever.

I am retired and have send monies to RNC, President Bush and other Republicans all across the country. I think the money that I send to the swiftees will do more for America and my party this election. I am lucky to be able to send more money when I have the itch. Thanks swiftees for helping America again. I love you all.

I think this makes my fifth biweekly payday. The last ad is really to the heart of the matter. John Kerry is not a good person. We simply cannot allow such a blatantly dishonest individual to lead this nation. I am absolutely honored to be a part of something this important.

thanks for all the support! We really appreciate all you rich texan republican sending those big checks. Wink Seriously - thanks with all our hearts. Without people like you who donate what you can it makes it more of the people will to get the word out about John Kerry and helping the swifties get the word out. Thank you...it is very much appreciated by everyone.
