The Captain's AMERICA


A note from the Chairman

Your Company
EAGLES TO THE FORE!!!!
 
As we bask in the glory of our recent triumphs in Washington, DC, we have suddenly come to the startling conclusion that we are out of funds. Dang...
 
The one thing I hate most about this job is having to ask folks to donate money, but from time to time I have to suck it up and beg for it. Now is one of those times...
 
And if we’re going to continue to grow like we’ve been doing, both in numbers and effectiveness, we need to have more money than ever before. Put succinctly, we’re working our one “semi-paid” employee to death and eating a lot of reimbursable expenses at the same time, and we have to do better than that... 
 
Someone said that your finances follow your heart, and that is the case with so many dedicated Eagles. Hundreds of you pay your own way, and here I am asking you to help our “National.” I can’t help it. I’ve got to do it...

I hate to poor-mouth us, but we’re broke, and it comes at a time when we are in a position to be at our most effective. Specifically, we already have permits for a prime piece of real estate on Capitol Hill in April to welcome General Petraeus and simultaneously put pressure on Congress to put away any cut-and-run thoughts our elected officials may have... 
 
We especially want to make it impossible for Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid and the other anti-American nincompoops to obstruct the proper execution of the Iraq War. Our servicemen and –women have already paid the price for victory, and we need but tough it out a while longer to demonstrate that the victory is essentially won already...
 
We need easily $10,000.00 to pull off the type of action we are planning in April...
 
Eagles, we are desperate. We are at the stage where we HAVE to have more financial support if we are to realize our potential...
 
Here’s an example of how we’re stepping out on faith: Eagle Robert Gowan, who is a Kona coffee grower on the “Big Island” of Hawai’i, has initiated a program that is already providing coffee to hundreds of troops in Iraq. He has now taken on the Marine Corps as a “client.” We haven’t given him a nickel, and he’s running a successful program... 
 
With support from “National,” Robert could expand that program to include much larger numbers of troops...
 
Check the website in the next few days, and you’ll see a piece about the great work Robert is doing with the help of Irene Holland in Charlotte, NC, and a few other selfless patriots...
 
Tell you what. We’ve been promoting Scott Swett’s and Tim Ziegler’s great book, To Set the Record Straight, the definitive account of our Viet Nam vets defeated John Kerry. If you would like an autographed copy of that book, send me a hundred bucks or more, and I’ll send it to you. Now that’s a deal...
 
If you send $50.00 to $100.00, I’ll send you a copy of that great DVD of that great day of March 17th, 2007—GOE I!
 
If you donate by PayPal, be sure to inform me of that and send me your street address or PO box number...
 
PLEASE, PLEASE open your pocketbooks like you’ve opened your hearts and give us the means not just to stay where we are but to grow! We have a message that America needs to hear and that America LIKES!
 
Thank you.
