Bouhammer Poll: What precludes you from buying at the Bouhammer Gear Store?

I have seen a lot of traffic on the Bouhammer Gear Store but I have not see a lot of purchases. This is quite disappointing because for all the T-shirts (except for the #militarymon Twitter shirt), 100% of the proceeds go directly to four great charities.

Not Alone, www.notalone.com
Fisher House, www.fisherhouse.org
Soldier’s Angels, www.soldiersangels.org
Books For Soldiers, www.booksforsoldiers.com

The #militarymon Twitter shirt has all proceeds go directly to Soldier’s Angels Project Valour-IT

So I am reaching out to you, my readers, to see if you have looked at the Bouhammer Gear Store, what was the reason you did not make a purchase?

Can we win in Afghanistan without Victory?

President Obama recently stated that he doesn’t necessarily think we need a “VICTORY” in Afghanistan to be successful. So I wanted to poll my readers and hear what you think. Do you think we can do what is needed in Afghanistan without a victory over the Taliban? Do you think that there are only two outcomes to war, win or lose? Here is your chance to be heard.

Is achieving Victory important in Afghanistan?

  • Yes, nothing less is acceptable (83%, 43 Votes)
  • No, because it is an outdated term (17%, 9 Votes)
