NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

Quote
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

I have to say one of the greatest surprises in the crazed world of entertainment to me has been Gene Simmons. He is one man with his head screwed on right despite the fame and fortunes. His show Family Jewels is one of the very few shows I watch, and the only reality show I watch. He had one episode where his daughter was doing a homework paper on the military, so he took her out to Camp Pendelton to visit. A Drill Instructor ran him and her both through the confidence course. In the background, he got the KISS band together and wrote a new song with a good version of all the military anthems culminating with the Marine Corps Hymn. Then they did a volunteer show on base where they played it.

And besides that, I was most impressed in the days right after 9-11 when Gene Simmons was one of the few stars interviewed saying he fully supported Bush and the wars and his only complaint was that we need to hit back even harder than we did.

KISS is good peoples.
Ace Freely looks horrid in those pictures though.

I saw that same show.  Not one bit of press on it that I recall.  And you knew he was choked up and proud, and meant every dang word.  And to teach that to his kids.  Just Damn.  I wish I would have recorded it.  I can't find it on anymore, or rather my DVR can't.

I agree Gene is a good guy{thinks quite a bit of himself}but a good guy nonetheless. Gene was born and raised a portion of his life in Israel and knows firsthand what we are up against with the GWOT. He's also a shameless Capitalist! ie. they actually sell KISS coffins! :lmao: Love the guy! :lmao:

Peter Criss....the drummer for KISS ...was on Fox and Friends yesterday morning.

He is a breast cancer survivor.

I found it on YouTube - here's the video from the show
at Camp Pendleton. Be sure and watch the ending.
