      <![CDATA[<p>Denzel Washington on occasion will make political pronouncements that make me wince, but not often.  And even if he was the Moonbat Baldwin or Streisand are, I'd forgive much for this.</p>

<blockquote>Danzel Washington was visiting BAMC (Brooke Army Medical Center, in San Antonio) the other day. This is where soldiers that have been evac'd from Germany come to be hospitalized in the States. They have buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a hotel that soldier's families can stay at, 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 to the brim 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 got his check book out and wrote a check out for the full amount right there on 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.</blockquote>

<p>As is my habit with things like this, I checked <b><a href="http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/denzel.asp">Snopes</a></b>, where they have more on the story.  Mebbe I'll go watch <b><a href="http://video.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?ean=43396041837&userid=My7VkbxA1R&frm=0&itm=1">Glory</a></b> again...</p>]]>

        This is very cool.  I hadn&apos;t heard this and it does raise my opinion of him considerably.

        Only to ensure that the correct facts go out with this wonderful story, remember that he didn&apos;t &quot;just whip out his checkbook&quot; but DID make a substantial donation to that organization.
Doesn&apos;t lessen a classy move by a classy gentleman.

        I already have respect for Mr. Washington&apos;s quiet responses when various talk show hosts have attempted to lump him in with the Hollyweird left, and he has denied them with his responses and attitudes.  But this is a pro-active step that outwardly shows his support - and I applaud him!!  There is more support from the celebrity areas than ever gets reported - we need to spread this one far and wide :-)

        <![CDATA[Regardless of Nationality, whether grand or subdued; it is uplifting to hear of such gestures/acts of support to the soldiers 'toeing the line'.
I have always been under the impression that the Canadian public could (should) take an example from the Americans in support of their troops.
I'm pretty sure that you could ask the average Canuck if they have ever heard 'King Marko', or to make it easier Sgt Marc Leger they would come up blank. (God bless, buds.)

Whether or not one supports the confict, one should always support the troop.
Job well done.
