Barbara (Mrs. "Friar Tuck" Brant) has asked me to pass along to you her thanks for all the work accomplished on this community.

She's a doll with a real wit and great sense of humor.

She says in part:

"The participants have tremendous energy. By the time, I finish reading the messages I have to take a nap.

"It was fascinating to watch brainstorming at work.

"Actually, it was more like a brain-blizzard. It is incredible what people can accomplish when they have self-discipline and a common goal.

"Since I am just a reader and do not participant in the forum would you
please convey to the members my appreciation and thanks."

Amazing - after all these families have given up over the last months, and they're thanking us.

With what we owe the Swift vets and POWs and their families for their sacrifices, hearing them thank us truly humbles me.

Kerry was dead wrong when he labeled foul mouthed Hollyweird types as the "heart and soul" of America. The real "heart and soul" of America are these guys and their families for their strong stance and placing their lives on hold while they endured the onslaught brought against them all for exercising their Freedom of Expression and Speech.

They are the pure embodiment of what America is all about and have performed a service much of America may never realize.

American History should devote a complete chapter about them and how they rose to the occassion, after the slander we all endured for over 30 years.

BZ, Well Done and Thank Yous are the least we owe them.

Stopping Kerry was one of the most important events in US history as far as I am concerned. All Americans, whether they will admit it or not, have been saved from what most of us shudder to even think about.

God Bless the Swiftees and POW's one and all!

I know that hate is a waste of energy and emotion, but I just cannot help myself. I have to say that there is not enough bad that can happen to that man. I cannot thank everyone here that worked so tirelessly, against such tremendous odds, for such a long time, enough. It is hard for me to convey to you how much fear I had that Kerry would succeed.

When I woke up on Wednesday morning, checked the TV and found out GWB was the winner, I shouted, "It's a great day to be an American". We must remember that Kerry is a sitting member of the US Senate and thus, is still a threat to our National Security. Let's finish the task, get to the truth - no matter what it takes.

I cannot forgive and I will not forget!

Actually, I was commenting on the founders' privacy, their "regular lives," their time when I spoke of all they've given up.

All of them have received varying degrees of spite, hate and invective aimed in their direction - all have had their privacy invaded. All have been vilified and called liars and Republican shills.

And all because they came forward to tell the truth.

Sometimes, "duty, honor, country" requires sacrifice - and sacrifice they have. I hope that they have experienced enough ups to make up for the downs in this election season.

The ABB crowd may never understand what the defeat of John Kerry
meant for the future of this country. What is really sad, they do not
want to know. There IS hope, however, for those who blindly voted
for John Kerry because they are "good" Democrats or because they
believed the white-washing that he got in the MSM. One day, the
truth WILL come out. The more he hints at a 2008 run for POTUS,
the more the MSM will be tempted to reveal what they know about
Kerry. They will manage to get hold of proof of his dishonorable
discharge and will put that on the front page of the NYT. They do not
want another failed Democratic candidate so they will destroy John
Kerry. Those "good" Democrats will be thanking God (or their lucky
stars if they are so foolish as to not believe in God) that Kerry is not
POTUS.
