   Did a squadron pack earlier and it was really slow, but it was a pleasure to wait as that meant traffic was heavy. Soap, lgm raises the hackles on my neck too, but I’ve decided that he is such a nothing that the only jollies he gets in life is to see his name in print, hence the provoking comments he makes, he’s such a loser that if he’d tried to make an intelligent point, everyone would ignore him. The only way he gets attention is to provoke, you recognise that behavior don’t you, I saw it all the time at the pre-school I worked at.

   MAF-1021 “Personal Comfort Pack” – Help 2 U.S. Troops 1 $39.99

   MAF-1020 “Goodies From Home” – Single Pack 1 $15.99

   Total: $55.98

   I truly regret that I couldn’t give more, but I have little to give. Other than church (which I haven’t attended in years), I’ve never given much to charity before (I know, I know, shame on me). But as a faithful MM/Hotair reader, I couldn’t say no. I actually was able to put a little money where my big typing fingers are. In no way does my small form of appreciation equal the sacrifices these soldiers are making for the sake of us Americans.

   I’d say “screw the MSM,” but it would’ve been nice to have their attention so that the totals would be higher. Then again, I think this shows that the MSM is becoming less relevant by the day.

   With this groundbreaking event, Michelle, Melanie, and co. are establishing something that should be emulated and duplicated. Sure, it’s had some technical issues, but for a concept in its infancy, I think it’s been doing very well.

   Despite the criticism you get (serious understatement), Michelle, I know you’ve got a heart of gold. Not only am I proud of our troops, I’m proud of you. Thanks and congratulations.

    Just sent a Goodies From Home large pack. I had been waffling back and forth and went with the Personal Care pack earlier in the day because of lgm’s dumb comment about the baby wipes, which I know the soldiers love. But the Candy Diplomacy thing kept popping in my head tonight so I had pull the trigger on another one.

    And the fact that I was eating the new Coldstone Creamery jellybeans from Jelly Belly may have had something to do with it as well.

I was amazed that even in these hard times {or so i am told by the left } so many were able to reach into their pockets and shell out to support our men and women in uniform. It was a wonderful thing M&M did.
    This just solidifies my desire to put on a charity wrestling event next year for the WWP. It feels so good to give back, its better then any drug.

    If you want to help our troops, you could contact your Senators and Congressmen to urge them to support troops by improving care of wounded vets, increasing pay, and, or course, providing armor.

    LGM,
    I can vouch for our body armor. It works. No issues. Our HMMWVs and MRAPs are saving lives as well. Continuous improvements are being made, as with all things. People can blame them for not thinking of things sooner, but I don’t. These systems work and have saved the lives of many of my friends.
    Improving care of wounded vets: I’d encourage you to visit any Army installation and ask those questions. There is always room for improvement, but the problems are normally internal systems problems, not problems of getting support from higher levels of government.
    Increasing pay: Of course I wouldn’t mind a bigger raise, but I didn’t join for the money. We get a raise about every year or so, with which I’m fine.
    “Contact your Senators and Congressmen”: Why do folks need to involve Big Daddy Government in efforts to support the troops? The President and SECDEF provide the task and purpose for me, and Congress provides the money. Beyond that, I don’t need much from them. I have more faith and confidence in the American people than I do my government. I’ll take a care package for myself or my fellow Soldier over any platitudes of a Congressman. For example, do you think I ever heard from my Congressmen while I was deployed? Do you think I ever got a letter from Durbin or Obama saying, “Dear Deployed Illinois Soldier…”? Nope, but I did get packages from old teachers, strangers, school kids, folks from church, and from one of the local bars who had a tip jar for packages to deployed Soldiers. In the end, all I need from Congress is for them to release our funds in a timely manner and stay out of the way. If you did want to call, you can tell them that.
    I hope this answers your concerns, LGM.

    It’s nice to give to charities, but you’re supposed to do your due diligence on them first. What is their overhead — what fraction of what you donate goes to the cause and what fraction is salaries for the organization? Neither of the organizations involved had any such information.

    If you want to help our troops, you could contact your Senators and Congressmen to urge them to support troops by improving care of wounded vets, increasing pay, and, or course, providing armor.

    How about applying those same standards to your government? You question how much “overhead” a private charity has, but don’t question the overhead from government bureaucracy for money forcibly taken from the American people.

    Aside from coaching local kids’ sports and supporting my local house of worship, I contribute thousands of dollars a year to organizations dedicated to American values — the constitution and freedom: the ACLU, Amnesty International, NARAL, Doctors without Borders, etc.

    I wrote an article a few months ago that may resonate with a few of you all. Here’s the intro:
    “In the past few years, ‘We Support the Troops,’ has become a sort of cliché
    whose meaning has never really been discussed. One hears it all the time: on the radio, on billboards, those little yellow-ribbon magnets, from politicians on the stump, from store marquees… It makes people feel good about themselves. One doesn’t win an audience by saying, ‘We Don’t Support the Troops.’ The question though remains: What does it mean to ‘Support the Troops?’ Speaking for myself, it means three things; 1) Supporting their mission, 2) Encouraging more of-age men to enlist, and 3) Encouraging our troops, not by showing their sacrifice, but their accomplishments.”
    You all are doing these things, for which I must say: thank you.

    Send Me #233: Golly, your unit is so lucky to have someone like you and our country is so blessed to be protected by someone like you. Twenty years in the AF, with some years in recruiting, I hope I made some small contribution to your meaning of supporting the troops. You’re officially on my prayer list.

    Great job Michelle, you make a difference. I would love to see an article from you about the emotional compact of the web-a-thon. Would you do it again and if so, do you have a better understanding of Jerry and his kids?

    Also Michelle, thank you for the ‘Chesty’ mention. I had the honor of shaking this Marines hand.

    Thank you for all you do, it helps diminish the memories of returning home from Viet Nam.

    My family came from Cuba to stay in this free nation. The troops are what keep this nation free and prosperous. They deserve so much and the least I can do is contribute. I can not thank them enough nor the people who organized this event.

    Great job everyone … especially by M&M … I saw a few of you (Sgt Tim, William Amos, Azygos, starlight, see-dubya, gatewaypundit and others) in the chat room they had at UStream alongside the broadcast …

    was fun to see that many other people we had never heard of before and realize there are many more of us than the MSM would like the world to believe … (and yes … just like here … we got “spammed” and “trolled” a couple of times) … but we hit their room limit of 1000 people more than once …

    Hope to see this be only the first of many such events … but right now I am still waiting to hear about the great response on the news … not even F&F mentioned it this morning … maybe they are waiting for Michelle to get back from CA or be available for an interview …

    if not sooner I feel sure it will be on radio from Rush and Hannity and on TV with Laura and Hannity tonight …

    Also found out about a number of troop and military family support groups and websites I was unaware of before … lots of good people out there …

    Again … thanks to everyone …

    Apologies to anyone that I failed to mention that was on the ustream chat … I know I left jennybea off the list … I also realize that some of you might have had to use a different login id there …

    Afternoon DL,

    I wanted to chat but couldn’t log onto UStream. UStream feed was better than the link here for those of you who were not happy with the streaming on MM.com

    soap …

    agree on the feed … hopefully they learned a lot and will do better next time … the advantage of getting into that chat room was that we were giving suggestions … such as putting the phone number on the screen … showing the contents of the packages … etc. … sorry you couldn’t get on there … had a 1000 person limit … it went up and down but you had no way of knowing when to try to sign on …

    were you able to see the comments without being signed in to the chat?

    Congratulations Michelle et al. I teared up when I saw the total at midnight.

    Some have mentioned the lack of reporting on this by the MSM. What a surprise! However, how wonderful to have heard from the White House, the office of Gen. David Petraeus and troops from Ft. Leavenworth!

    Well just sent another 2 packs, 1 in honor of Chap’s brother in law, the other in honor of Soap’s son.
    Here’s a piece of advice when dealing with Tricare and doctors (I’m not sure if I can spell correctly or not- been a crazy 3 days at Walter Reed with the Princess) don’t say you’re taking your kid to St. Jude. Goes over like the proverbial lead balloon.
    Good night all and job well done. I do hope we can do this again sometime and sorry I wasn’t able to catch the audio. I thought it was on the page with Rush’s picture put no dice.
    Have a great weekend!
