I haven't visited much since '04 but the SVPT folks have never been far from my mind. I just want to wish every one of you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous '08. My posts back then were under "Tom Poole," a moniker assembled from letters of in-law names. After a long respite, I forgot my name and created this new one. However, both of "us" wish the best to you and yours.

in from zippo.. me too

Good morning to all my fellow Americans and our
allies in the War On Terror.To our brave on
battlefields around the world,God bless you and MERRY
CHRISTMAS.I hope our two million eight hundred
thousand Americans of the Jewish faith,who stand
beside us in the war,have a safe holiday practicing
your own beliefs.I would say the same for the one
million and eighty thousand Buddhists and those of
other faiths,not at war with us.
To the one million one hundred thousand Moslem's in
America.I would say Merry Christmas and quietly remind
you of your obligations to support the United States
of America over any and all others.The same goes for
those of the majority religions,including those
professing the Christian faith.To that minority of
Americans who believe in nothing,all thirty million of
you,may your minority view be expressed without
infringement on those of faith.

The one hundred and sixty million Americans of the
Christian faith take great pride today in carrying the
burden of allowing all others to practice their
faiths.But make no mistake we are the vast majority in
America and your acceptance DEPENDS ON YOU and not
us.On this the day the majority of Americans celebrate
the direct gift from God,HIS OWN SON,may you all have
a very MERRY CHRISTMAS.May our Soldiers,Marines,Airmen
and Sailors know that their cause is just and at least
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY MILLION OF US WILL PRAY FOR
THEIR SAFETY TODAY.

To those in the media who daily promote the idea
that we Protestants and Catholics will soon be in the
minority,buy the world almanac and brush up on your
numbers.So today if you want an X instead of CHRIST in
your holiday,carve it in your own forehead and not on
the store window. For an example,see the Manson Family
going to court and honoring their false idol.To the
vast majority of my fellow Americans; MERRY CHRISTMAS
AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!! ZIPPO


I am Major Mark A. Smith,US Army,Retired and I approve
this message and do not care if anyone else does.

A very happy Christmas to all our board denizens!

For our uniformed brethren far away from their families and familiar things, and for you families who wait, prayers for your comfort and safety - this Christmas Eve and every day.

God bless you all!

My wife and I wish each and all a Very Merry Christmas today and add hopes for a better 2008, espeically to those who are so far away from home without their families and loved ones.

Without them we would not have a Christmas.
