RED FRIDAYS

I just received this in my e-mail this morning. If you browse for “Red Fridays” you will find that there are many organizations that are implementing the Red Fridays demonstrations. I think it’s neat that many people are putting this issue up for discussion in their blogs. Some have even become upset because they thought that by doing that we are not supporting President Bush. Well, I believe this has nothing to do with supporting Bush or his administration in anyway. I think this has everything to do with just supporting the troops. We need to support the men and women who are sacrificing being away from their love ones for so long, who sacrifice their very lives.
Whether it has been by choice because they believe in the cause, or because they are just following orders, fact of the matter is that there are hundreds of Americans overseas and they deserve to be supported in anyway possible. Ironically I am wearing red today. I didn’t even think about it, so I’ll take that as a sign. Have a great weekend!!


I thought this was well worth passing on. I hope you all agree and will follow suit. Have a great weekend!



RED FRIDAYS
Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing
Red every Friday. The reason?

Americans who support our troops used to be called the
"silent majority".
We are no longer silent, and are voicing
our love for God, country and home
in record breaking numbers.
We are not organized, boisterous or over-bearing. We
get no liberal media
coverage on TV, to reflect our message or our
opinions. Many Americans,
like you, me and all our friends, simply want to
recognize that the vast
majority of America supports our troops.
Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our
troops with dignity and
respect starts this Friday -and continues each and
every Friday until the
troops all come home, sending a deafening message that..
Every red-blooded American who supports our men and
women afar, will wear
something red.
By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United
States on every Friday
a sea of red much like a homecoming football game in
the bleachers.
If every one of us who loves this country will share
this with acquaintances,
co-workers, friends, and family. It
will not be long before the USA is covered
in RED and it will let our troops
know the once "silent" majority is on
their side more than ever, certainly
more than the media lets on.
The first thing a soldier says when asked
"What can we do to make things better
for you?" is...We need your support and your prayers.
Let's get the word out and lead with class and
dignity, by example; and wear something red every Friday.
I sent this out to everyone on my email list.
Will you?

WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY BECAUSE OF THE
BRAVE.
THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED-WEAR RED!
MOST OF ALL - GOD BLESS AMERICA
