The Media Missed this one!!!!








Denzel Washington, at Brooks Army Medical CenterDon't know whether you heard about this but Denzel Washington and his family visited the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in San Antonio,Texas (BAMC) the other day. This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the UnitedStates, especially burn victims. There are some buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay, for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled most of the time.While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build. He took his checkbook out and wrote a check for the full amount right thereon the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it. The question I have is why does:Alec Baldwin,Madonna, Sean Penn and other Hollywood types make front page news with their anti-everything America trash and Denzel Washington's Patriotism doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of any newspaper except the Local newspaper in San Antonio.

    Oh that's easy. Because the media (exept for Fox usually) is made up of a bunch of bleeding heart, lets all hold hands and hug, left wing, liberal democrats who's one and only goal is to TRY to make George Bush look like an ass. And, if the news of the day doesn't regard lesbian, gays, anti-christian, anti-traditionalist, Rosie O'Donnell, Katie Couric, bull-dookie then it doesn't get put in the news. Its basically that simple. If you are a Christian, you are compared to a radical muslim who blows up the WTC or as being no different from a Holocost denier, if you have morals and values you are judgemental and narrow minded, if you believe that gay marriage is against Biblical principles you MUST be from Mississippi. But, apparently we, the American citizens bend over and let that happen to some degree because those networks , newspapers and other forms of media happen to rule the country right now.

    While Mr. Washington did visit the BAMC and make a sizeable donation, he did not take out his checkbook and donate enough money to build a new facility.
