He is blind so he has a golden retriever named Daisy. After the plane hit 20 stories below, James knew that he was doomed, so he let Daisy go, out of an act of love. She darted away into the darkened hallway. Choking on the fumes of the jet fuel and the smoke James was just waiting to die. About 30 minutes later, Daisy comes back along with James' boss, who Daisy just happened to pick up on floor 112.  On her first run of the building, she leads James, James' boss, and about 300 more people out of the doomed building. But she wasn't through yet, she knew there were others who were trapped. So, highly against James' wishes she ran back in the building.  On her second run, she saved 392 lives. Again she went back in. During this run, the building collapses. James hears about this and falls on his knees into tears. Against all known odds, Daisy makes it out alive, but this time she is carried by a firefighter. "She led us right to the people, before she got injured" the fireman explained.  Her final run saved another 273 lives. She suffered acute smoke inhalation, severe burns on all four paws, and a broken leg, but she saved 967 lives.  The next week, Mayor Guilaini rewards Daisy with the Canine medal of Honor of New York. Daisy is the first civilian Canine to win such an honor. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>The attached photo was forwarded from one of the last U.S. Marine companies in Iraq.

I came upon your website (linked from Duh Goat Man). I am the mother of young man in uniform. Your website is phenomenal. There is no way that we can support our young men and women too much. It seems some times that so many here in the U.S. have forgotten that 3000+ died on Sept 11, 2001. They died not because they did anything wrong, or because they deserved to die. They died because there is an element in this world called hate. Radical Islamists, full of hate, believing a lie, chose to murder innocents in cold blood as they carried out their daily lives. The world changed that day. We have to root out and destroy the evil before it destroys us. We can't wait until they kill another 3000 or 100,000 or untold thousands. </B></div> <div> <B>My heart breaks with the death of every soldier, sailor, airman or marine. One of those could be mine. I have heard politicians (mostly from the left) claim that these young men and women were duped, they are only in the military because they couldn't find a job anywhere else, that they are the lower class and lower intelligence that couldn't make in the real world and therefore joined the military. They didn't join because they wanted to, they joined because they had no choice is the inference. Nothing could be further from the truth. The vast majority of these young people are the best and brightest this country has to offer. In our church alone there are over 20 young men and woman who have joined the fight. My son, in his sophmore year in highschool, saw the towers fall and knew from that moment that serving his country in this fight was his only option. He is a Fire Controlman serving aboard the USS Chosin out of Pearl Harbor. He operates the Mark 86, the Navy's largest gun. (enormous firepower, every little boy's dream) The purpose of that gun is to defend his ship from attack from the sea or air. The lives of everyone on his ship depend on him doing his job correctly. He scored a 28 on the ACT he could have done anything he wanted with his life. This is what he wanted. Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of all who threaten it. </B></div> <div> <B>Thank you for the support of our Commander in Chief and the troops he commands. </B></div> <div> <B>Penney Lyons</B></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><IMG SRC="176ef47a0.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="378" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> There is a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy.25 in rural Iowa. For generations, kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing its character many times. A few months back, the rock received its latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. It's quite an impressive sight. Be sure to scroll down and check out the multiple photos (all angles) of the rock. I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.</div> <div> <IMG SRC="1772b7580.jpg" border=0 width="695" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="1776c0580.jpg" border=0 width="704" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="1777bb580.jpg" border=0 width="699" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="1778be580.jpg" border=0 width="702" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="1779b9580.jpg" border=0 width="697" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="177ac0580.jpg" border=0 width="704" height="600" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><IMG SRC="177de63d0.jpg" border=0 width="486" height="317" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <I><B>"What a Country!"
