Staying home? Voting? Either way, look at this picture
Posted on 11/06/2006 8:09:34 PM PST by Mr. Silverback

For those who'll have trouble reading the fine print, I'll summarize. This is Chief Master Sergeant John Gebhardt, and the girl he's holding is the only survivor of a family methodically executed by terrorists in Iraq. They shot her in the head, too.
If the Dems win tomorrow...well, I'll let Freeper El Gato tell ya, as he put it in this thread:
Cut and run Kerry, and his buddy Bug Out Murtha would leave this little girl to the tender mercies of the human garbage that killed her family.
BTW, a USAF CMSgt is very high ranking NCO (E9). Equivalent to Army SgtMajor, Navy Master Chief Petty Officer, Marine Master Gunnery Sgt. It's a sure bet that he has plenty of other things to do and many responsibilities. But still he gives up his valuable sack time to calm this little girl, allowing her to get the rest she needs to speed her recovery.
Quite frankly, I think the Rats have given us millions of reasons to vote GOP this election, and there are a mess of positive reasons to vote for this House caucus, such as their fight against the McCain Amnesty Plus bill. But this one reason is enough. Pelosi and Reid will abandon the two people in this photo, leaving one to Al Qaeda and the other dazed on the floor after they pull the rug out for the second time in a little over 30 years. They will let John Murtha and John Kerry decide how this all ends. But we can stop them.
This one's a must win, ladies and gentlemen. It's broken glass time. Git R Done!

FReepers need to get pollwatching credentials (from any area GOP campaign), move around on Election Day from poll to poll, have cell phone in hand with the phone number of your STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS number already programmed in, digital still or video camera if possible to videotape the "perps". This will help stem the tide of fraudulent electioneering, etc. at the polls. I do this every two years, and have successfully chased DEM Chicago machine operatives out of the northern Cook County area when I caught them red-handed, handing out campaign literature to shuttle buses of old people being dropped off at the polls from their assisted living residences.
JUST DO IT PEOPLE!

Wow!! What a sobering, and powerful pic !!
It's like the troops are over there taking care of our backs, and it seems like the LEAST we can do for them is to reciprocate back here, by making SURE we support them with our votes !!
Great post Mr. Silverback !! BTTT !!

Thanks for the ping...
Took a friend, she is a rare voter, meaning that I persuaded her to get reregistered and vote in the last presidential election because her only other vote was for Jimmah Carter.
She voted straight Republican that time and I told her that she owed America seven more years of voting to atone for Jimmah.
I called her up last week after jon carry's comments and asked her if she was going to vote and she said she had'nt planned on it but she would if I came with her.
We went on Thursday and she came out grinning cause she went straight Republican ticket, again. I was even impressed with her ballot measures and court picks. ---Whata girl!---
Must say that it was hard to be in that early voting line and not cast my vote---but I had to wait because my husband, daughter and me had plans to meet together and go vote, today. We will be at the voting precint mid-morning and needless to say are all voting straight Republican ticket.

Mr. KSoldier is a busy man holding down the fort in Iraq esp. since Saddam was sentenced to hang!!! So I'll be happy to do the honors.

Thanks for all your support. Here is a picture of us terrorizing women and children in the dead of night after we kicked in some doors... OK, maybe not... Do they really look terrorized to you?

Forgot to mention that I love that picture. I don't post a lot, but I am here with you guys all of the time.
Have seen that picure many times, but it always gets me to see a father's love. I know he is not the Dad of that girl, but a father's (or father to be) love is something special and I am glad that he took the time to bond with that little girl.
