The Troy-Clawson Republican Forum held its annual Christmas Dinner on December 13th at Shields Restaurant in Troy.

To show our support for the Iraqi people and their quest for freedom, we took a picture with all of us holding up our "purple fingers."

In the photo, you can see Councilwoman Broomfield and myself. My son Alex was in attendance but was more interested in the racing car game than in posing for this photo.

This photo was picked up by radio talk show host Bill Bennett on his web site.
