What the Media Won't Show You

In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime Minister, Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in and how many want out."
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.
One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.







I read the comments of Tony Blair on an email. I don't always know what to believe when I receive emails like that, but if Tony Blair really said those things - I appreciate it. I also found these pictures on-line. I am so thankful to be an American!

Isn't it interesting that those who have had their freedom bought with the blood of thousands of GIs, like the French, Dutch, Italians, Germans, etc., are the least appreciative and least supportive of Americans doing the same for others.
