I believe anything that would brighten a soldier or Marine's day, even for just a moment, is a good thing, but I have a suggestion for those who can afford as little as $5.00; knowing even as I write that not all of us has that much left at the end of the month:
Joe Scarborough (Scarborough Country, MSNBC, 8PM CST) is encouraging listeners to donate money to an organization that sends phone cards to troops in Iraq,
Our soldiers are paid so little; if they are married and have children, their families are forced to apply for Food Stamps. A phone card that would allow them to call mom and dad or wife and kids might be the best Christmas gift anyone could give them.
It's the weekend now so I won't be able to get website or contact info until Monday night. When I get it I will add it to this post.
(Mods; I never read TOS or assembly instructions, so if I broke a rule I will understand if you have to delete the commercial. You will be sent to Hell, of course, which is good and proper, but I will understand)...Vic
