MOVE AMERICA FORWARD “KEEP GITMO OPEN” PRESS CONFERENCE A COMPLETE SUCCESS

9/11 FAMILIES AND SEN. JAMES INHOFE ARE HIGHLIGHTS


9/11 Family Member Debra Burlingame addressing the press
conference at the National Press Club in Washington DC


We wanted to keep you up to date on our fantastic press conference at the National Press Club in Washington DC to unveil our new 30 second TV spot alerting the public about the dangers of President Barack Obama’s plan to close the Guantanamo Bay Detention Center for terrorists.

MAF was joined by families of victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and was honored to also host Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma. The room was absolutely packed with press, so packed in fact that people were turned away at the door!


Reporters and journalists packed the room, even some
German, Japanese, Russian, Hindu, and Arab Media!


Pia, one of our supporters, wrote to us afterwards, “I got to the doors of the Murrow Room at 10:03 and was told it was a full house and already begun. I'm sorry that I didn't make it on time and hope it was a successful launch. Keep up the good work.” We wish we could have got you in.


I am about to start the press conference and introduce
Senator Inhofe, who is standing off to the left.


I spoke first and layed out our mission: to protect the lives and safety of Americans by keeping Gitmo open. We have been to Guantanamo Bay and seen with our own eyes the fantastic job our troops are doing in guarding these murderous terrorists. It is simply outrageous for the President to leave people with the impression that our troops have done something wrong. We will always stand up so that our troops can keep doing their jobs; we protect the honor of our brave troops; and we will NOT allow the media or the President to trash the name of Guantanamo Bay unfairly.

Then, Senator James Inhofe spoke cogently and gave some background on Gitmo as well as giving some background about his own legislation that he introduced into Congress which would prohibit the President from bringing these terrorist onto U.S. soil.

Senator Inhofe also reminded people that “there is a surge going on in Afghanistan…we’re going to get quite a few other detainees.” Inhofe pointed out that there are no places like Guantanamo Bay to bring in new detainees taken off the battlefield.


Senator Inhofe answering reporter questions

The Senator told the assembled press, “I wish President Obama would just go there, and take a tour, see what Melanie and Debbie and some of the rest of us have seen, and [he] would change [his] opinion.” We agree on that!

We also heard from MAF’s Debbie Lee, mother of Marc Alan Lee, the first U.S. Navy SEAL killed in the war in Iraq, and four individuals who lost family members in the devastating terrorist attacks of September 11th.



Debbie said to those assembled “My son fought the terrorists over there so that we wouldn’t have to have them on our soil. I knew that he would be so disheartened if he knew that the next president coming in [Obama] would make a decision to bring these terrorists back to our soil.”

Watch your inbox for more updates and comments from Debra Burlingame, Lorraine Arias-Beliveau, Geraldine Davie, and Hamilton Peterson, all who lost family members in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Also please consider making a contribution to Move America Forward so that we can put our ad up on television and bring more Americans the message that Obama is risking our lives by bringing these dangerous terrorists to our shores and putting them in our federal courts system.

MAF Goes to Gitmo



TERRORISTS LIVE IN LUXURY

AT GUANTANAMO BAY


American troops treat them better than

they are treated, while liberal politicians

keep demanding more rights for the accused



I am back home from my whirlwind tour to Guantanamo Bay to give thanks to our military men and women on duty there. We were honored to bring them new movies on DVD, Oreo cookies, Christmas and Hanukkah cards, MAF commemorative t-shirts and plenty of hugs. For the second year in a row Move America Forward was able to spend part of the Christmas holidays with our great military men and women. Last year it was almost two weeks in Iraq, and this year we were in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.



CAPTION: Posing with Kylie Williams, Debbie Lee and a fabulous Gitmo MP

It disturbed me to see how well the terrorists are being treated, and then have to put up with liberal politicians attacking our troops. As one of the soldiers said to me, "It makes us sick when people tell lies about what we do. We are proud to represent America and we do NOTHING to shame our command in chief or the American people." Well, we are more than happy to tell the truth to the American people, which is a job the mainstream media has largely neglected.

Please help Move America Forward tell the story of our U.S. troops to the American public. We need your financial support to keep going. Please click here:



The worst comment from an American politician came from Illinois U.S. Senator Dick Durbin. Here is what he said:

"If I ... didn't tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners [At Guantanamo] in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets In their gulags, or some mad regime, Pol Pot, or others that had no concern for human beings. Sadly, that is not the case. This was the action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners." (PBS' "The Newshour," 6/17/05)

In reality, the terrorists have better accommodations than our troops. They live in air conditioned state-of-the art new buildings; they have more recreation time than American school children; they get prayer rugs and Qurans, which no non-Muslim U.S. soldier can even touch. They get six different menus to choose from; among their offerings are Baked Tandouri Chicken Breast, Mustard-Dill Baked Fish, Lyonnaise Rice, and Fish Amandine. I don't remember seeing that on the menu at Nazi concentration camps or in Soviet gulags. I doubt Pol Pot offered them in the killing fields of Cambodia.



CAPTION: Liberal U.S. Senators Patrick Leahy and Richard Durbin
have been critical of U.S. troops at Guantanamo Bay.


Or, how about this comment in the Congressional Record by Vermont U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy:

"Now that may sound like an experience from some oppressive and authoritarian regime, something that may have happened under the Taliban, something that Saddam Hussein might have ordered or in the fiction of Kafka." (Congressional Record, 9/28/06, p. S10356)

It is just disgusting what some American politicians are willing to say to appeal to the far left anti-military crowd in the United States. When terrorists decided to smash their TV and the TV room because a Palmolive soap commercial came on that revealed a woman's arm, what do you think our response was? Yes, we got them a new flat screen TV - although this time it is encased in hard Plexiglas so they couldn't destroy it again. Let me put it to you this way: if you children destroyed your family TV because they were mad about something, how long would it take for you to buy them a new one? Or, is a better question, how long will it be before they turn 21 and can buy their own?






CAPTION: Here we are with some of our outstanding men and women
of the military. We will stand by them forever and proud and honored to do it.


Please help us to defend our American heroes at Guantanamo Bay, in Iraq and Afghanistan and across the globe. Please click here to help:



The talk we hear from President-elect Obama about closing Guantanamo is ridiculous. In addition to the detention facility, it plays an important part of refueling for the 4th Fleet and in drug interdiction. Instead of junketing around the world, some of these politicians should come down to Gitmo and see for themselves before they start spouting off. With all due respect, I would recommend President-Elect Obama cut his Hawaiian vacation short and head down to Gitmo to see and thank the troops himself before he decides to move some of the terrorist killers to our shores.

To see more pictures from our trip to Gitmo and our nationwide bus tour, check out our blog by clicking here

Even though we are only a day away from Christmas, many people still have not purchased their care packages for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. We decided to keep packing and sending them throughout the rest of the month. So this will still give you an opportunity to say thank you to our troops during the holidays.

The goal of our nationwide tour was to travel across America and encourage Americans to sponsor care packages for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Please click here to sponsor care packages for our deserving troops:

Move America Forward and 12 Days of Christmas


As a special holiday treat Move America Forward will mark our 12 Days of Christmas by chronicling the gifts that American troops have given to us since the first days of our Great Country. Each day we will tell the story of that gift and why we must celebrate our troops.


“On the Eleventh Day of Christmas, Our Soldiers Gave to Us . . .





Safety from Terrorists !!!”

Following the brutal attacks of Sept.11, 2001, men and women marched down and signed up to protect America from her enemy: radical Muslim jihadists. It was the worst attack ever on American soil.

Americans from every corner of life stood up as one against the murderers who took 3,000 innocents that day. But as some Americans got tired of the war, our brave troops continued the fight to keep us safe. Even as politicians and others criticize our troops, claiming that the troops have lost the war in Iraq, our brave American men and women put their lives on the line to protect us.



Memorial for fallen buddies, our heroes

They do not forget. They have lived the worst: the war, thousands of miles away from home, and have seen their buddies give up their lives to protect our country. But our troops don't quit because true Americans aren't quitters. These military men and women are the best we have, and we at MAF will never forget.




Caption: Troops in Afghanistan remember the 9/11 attacks


Move America Forward marks the Days of Christmas by highlighting some of the gifts our soldiers, Marines, airmen, coasties, sailors have given us since the beginning of our great country.

The veterans of World War II and the Americans who worked to keep the country safe as Nazis and Imperialists plotted our overthrow are called "The Greatest Generation." This generation of troops, who have protected America and fought against radical Muslim Jihadists since that infamous day of Sept. 11, 2001, are "The Generous Generation of Selfless American Heroes."

American troops all volunteer. They give their lives to protect you and me. They sacrifice in extreme ways. So today, on the Eleventh Day of Christmas, MAF salutes them for their work keeping America safe from terrorists.

America's homeland has not been hit again since Osama bin Laden's maniacal murderers attacked on 9/11. We owe this safety to our troops and our intelligence services under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief.


SUPPORT OUR TROOPS

WITH A CARE PACKAGE FOR THE HOLIDAYS





Our men and women today, and during every war, have continued to defend our security. We have to continue to defend and support them. There is no better way than by sending a care package of goodies that they will really appreciate.

Most important, you can write your own personal note to an individual military man or woman in Iraq or Afghanistan. Your personal comments will go with the care package. Our troops can get lonely during the holidays. They are thousands of miles away from their families and their homes in America. Your personal note will lift their spirits during the holidays.






MAF has also produced a commemorative T-shirt for this year's tour. Theyare limited edition, so make sure to get yours now!! You can wear them and they will make a terrific Christmas gift for your loved ones.







To commemorate our 6th nationwide tour, Move America Forward has created a
limited edition t-shirt. Wear it with pride or make it a perfect Christmas present. Order a limited edition t-shirt NOW!

Thanks so much for your support.

Code Pinko's Retreat From Berzerkeley

Cross posted from WUA.

 Many might remember the disgusting actions of the Berkeley city council when they tried to call the US Marines unwelcome and unwanted in the town of Berkeley, to which cause a firestorm of support to show up, enmasse, for the Marines until the Council decided to rescind and reword their resolution.

Another cancer in Berkeley was the Code Pink as they harassed the Marine recruiting office, chaining themselves to the doors, vandalizing their building and spewing their venomous hatred, trying to force the Marines to leave, again, they failed as more support showed up for the Marines.


(right- Melanie Morgan faces off with Code Pinko member Medea Benjamin-left)
Melanie Morgan, Chairman of the pro-troop organization Move America Forward sent me an email showing that the Code Pinkos of Berkeley are leaving!!!!!!
We hate to gloat, but . . . .
Code Pink, the leftists anti-American hippies who dress in Pepto Bismol pink and who tried to run the Marines out of Berkeley, have retreated. We at Move America Forward lead the charge against them when they attacked our Marines. Now Code Pink is having a “going out of business sale.”
From Code Pink:
We must close our CodePINK office, 1248 Solano Ave., Albany. Come to our EVERYTHING MUST GO Moving Sale from noon until 7:00pm Tuesday Oct 28th thru Thursday Oct 30th!
All the office furniture, display cabinets, tschotkes, and all the wonderful outdoor furniture and fixings as well - not to mention CodePINK memorabilia and merchandise - will be on sale!
Come get your treasure and help us close this part of our chapter.
This is what I call good news to awaken to on a Monday morning!!!

Thanks to Melanie, Move America Forward, every veteran, family member and friend that showed up in support of the U.S. Marines in Berkeley for everything they did and their consistent show of patriotism.

To the Code Pink chapter in Berkeley- Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Too bad Code Pinko doesn't take the Berzerkeley city council and the rest of the commie scum with them.

From Melanie Morgan - Move America Forward Freedom PAC

OBAMA ATTEMPTS TO

STOP U.S. TROOP WITHDRAWAL



DISGRACEFUL ACTION TAKEN IN IRAQ

FOR POLITICAL ADVANTAGE!


Dear Friends:


It is almost impossible to believe Barack Obama can be this arrogant. But
sometimes the worst about politicians is true. It looks like Barack Obama told the Iraqi government to halt negotiations on troop withdrawals until after the election.

Obama is putting his own political objectives ahead of the safety of U.S. troops in Iraq. Apparently this all happened during his celebrated trip to Iraq - yes, the same trip where he refused to meet with American military personnel in the hospital in Germany because they wouldn't let news camera crews turn the visit into a circus and political stunt.



Iraqi government sources have revealed to the New York Post that Presidential
candidate Barack Obama demanded that Iraqi officials stop negotiations
with the Bush Administration to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq. Read
the story for yourself by clicking HERE.

Fearful
that the success in Iraq would harm his political aspirations, Obama
sought to keep U.S. troops in Iraq so he can continue attacking the Bush Administration for not imposing a timetable for withdrawal. If these allegations prove to be true, it should be the end of the Obama campaign. The report says this was a demand Obama made to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari.




(Zebari with Secretary of State Condi Rice)


You can bet the mainstream media will try to smother this story and keep Americans from finding out about what happened. Only Fox News has reported it so far. That is why we have to get a television commercial together ourselves. But we need your help to produce and air the TV commercial. Please help by contributing now:




Obama should have the decency to recognize that he lacks the moral character
to serve as Commander-in-Chief, and he should withdraw from the
ticket. I have never heard of any candidate deliberately trying to get
Americans killed to prove their point.

According to the New York Post story, not only did Obama seek to get the Iraqi to stop negotiating with Americans on the troop drawdown, he also tried to bully General David Petraeus to agree to a hard withdrawal date.





The hypocrisy of Barack Obama - to say, in the United States, that he wants
a speedier troop withdrawal date - while telling the Iraqis to stop
negotiating is appalling. Even supporters of a quicker U.S. withdrawal
must be sickened by his conduct in Iraq. If there were ever a candidate
who has demonstrated the lack of character and leadership to represent
the United States in foreign affairs, it is Barack Obama.


Please help us to get the facts to the American people. We need to get this
ad produced in the next 24 hours and cannot do it without your support:







Our TROOPS and Our NATION will thank you for it

Some great news to pass along to you - as of this morning we have surpassed $100,000 in care package sponsorships as part of Move America Forward's effort to send the largest care package shipment to U.S. troops in history.

You're making history folks.  The news media and our political leaders are going to be stunned by this outpouring of support for our troops.  Please keep it up, and ask others to join in.

FBI To Address Attacks

Dear Pro-Troop Supporters:

I have some great news to share with you!! Please also pass along this information to others who will appreciate the good news.

As you know there has sadly been an increasing campaign of violence against military recruiting centers across the nation - conducted by anti-military radicals (who are erroneously referred to as "peace activists" by a sympathetic media). We at Move America Forward researched the vast array of these incidents and compiled them together in "The Sedition Report" which we provided to members of Congress and law enforcement.Today Move America Forward's legal team received an official response from the U.S. Department of Justice criminal division:

"This is in response to your letter to the Criminal Division dated April 3, 2008. on behalf of your client, Move America Forward, Inc., recounting a number of incidences of vandalism and other activities at military recruiting stations."Much to our delight, the letter went on to say that they had agreed to direct our formal request for an investigation (and appropriate prosecutions based on the results of those investigations), "to Federal Bureau of Investigation headquarters for review and appropriate action."

We at Move America Forward will keep pressing forward on this issue. We will not allow our troops to come under attack here on home soil from those who express a seething white hatred towards our military men and women.

Over the past several weeks thousands of patriotic Americans provided the financial support that has paid for our legal team to press forward with these efforts. You and other patriots also paid for a television commercial that documented these attacks that has already aired across the nation.


VIEW THE AD - HERE

Thank you all so much for your continued support of our troops and helping us at Move America Forward to make great progress in our pro-troop efforts.

Fondly,

Melanie Morgan 
Chairman, Move America Forward
