    Support the Troops

    With American servicemen and women in harm's way around the world, our troops and their families need our support. The resources below (most courtesy of the Department of Defense) let you remember the fallen, support military charities, send greetings to the troops, and more.

    Note: The groups listed below are independent organizations and have received no formal endorsement from the Department of Defense.

    Today's Mantra

    "It's not a timetable; it's victory. It's victory, which I have always predicted. I'm not putting a date on it. It could be next month, it could be next year, it could be three years from now."

    John McCain, on U.S. troops leaving Iraq, on May 15, 2008.

     
    Church and State to Merge
    Despite record low approval ratings for both President Bush and the direction of the country, the unending Democratic presidential race keeps John McCain and the GOP alive. Threat level unchanged.
     
    The Avenging Angel

    Lurita Doan,  President Bush's reliable GOP operative at the GSA, finally learned the end was nigh.

    For months, Doan has faced a House probe over her dubious awarding of no-bid contracts to friends as well as possible Hatch Act violations for wrongly using her office to help "our candidates" in upcoming elections. Doan finally resigned on April 29th.

    History's verdict on Doan as well as the "great president" she claimed to serve, the Angel notes, won't be kind.
