Spirit of America

One more day to contribute to SoA. I know you want to make that last minute tax-deductible contribution. I received this e-mail from Jim Hake of SoA today:

VISIT WITH PRESIDENT BUSHOn Thursday, Omar and Mohammed from Iraq the Model and Friends of Democracy,Kerry Dupont from SoA and I met with President Bush in the Oval Office. It was a half-hour meeting with the President. Paul Wolfowitz was also there. I'll be posting more information in the next two days but here are two items.About half way into the meeting the President said to Omar and Mohammed, "I want you two to know that we are going to stay until the job is done. It doesn't matter what the rest of the world says. It doesn't matter what the UN says. We are going to stay until the job is done. It's important that your country knows that." It was a powerful and moving moment. After talking about Spirit of America, Pres. Bush turned to Omar andMohammed and said, " You see gentlemen, that is the beauty of America. I never met this man before but he's out there helping to win this war on terror just as much as Wolfie here. That's what I believe in." He went onto talk about the importance of private-sector, grass roots initiatives like SoA.

Emphasis mine. SoA is doing great work and deserve as many donations as they can accrue. Go here to donate to a good cause.
