JamesCraven Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Sorry, Tank, but you are wrong on the King Richard the XLIII part. Earnhardt the elder was in the race, but that isn't the answer I'm looking for.

CaolinaJoe Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 First race covered flag to flag on live TV. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
