Yesterday Charles had the opportunity to go meet with Senators at the Capitol to discuss the war in Iraq. He heard about this opportunity while listening to C-SPAN, so he took the day off and went into DC. Along with other members of the group, Vets for Freedom, Charles was able to tour the Capitol and Senate buildings. He was really excited about all the sights! A really cool thing is a subway that runs underneath the buildings to transport the Senators. Charles even got to ride in a Senator only elevator. He was really excited about being in the different Senator offices and meeting Senators Lieberman and Martinez. He had lots of stories to share!

Thanks so much for going to Washington, D.C. to make Congress listen to those who support our troops and their missions - including the mission in Iraq. Vets for Freedom has done an awesome job the past few weeks. I invite you and your readers to join us at Move America Forward as we launch our national, cross-country "Fight for Victory Tour" this September 3 - 15 ending in DC where we’ll have a rally with a collection of pro-troop groups including Vets for Freedom, Gathering of Eagles, Military Order of the Purple Heart, Free Republic, Protest Warriors and others. It’s a vital time for us to be mobilized and speaking out and it’s for such a just, worthy, noble, and pertinent cause. So let’s kick some butt and stand up to those who wish to force surrender terms upon our troops! http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org
