Here is a copy of an email I received re: Denzel Washington. Nice to hear
about
the good things people do out of the goodness of their hearts and not seeking
attention for it. My hat is off to Mr. Washington.

Don'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 United States, 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
check
book out and wrote a check 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.
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.
