LIVE THREAD: H.O.T. CHAPTER'S CRAWFORD SUPPORT PRES. AND TROOPS RALLY (8/13/05)
Link to Announcement Thread ^ | Saturday, August 13, 2005 | Kristinn

Posted on 08/13/2005 6:55:59 AM PDT by kristinn

The Heart of Texas Chapter of FreeRepublic.com is holding a rally in Crawford, Texas today to show America's support for our troops, President Bush and the war on terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere around the world.

The rally will be held at noon at the Crawford Civic Center at 1000 4th Street.

Freepers are coming from near and far to join the H.O.T. Chapter in Crawford. If you live within four hours drive of Crawford, it's not too late to hit the road and get on down there.

Folks in attendance will be calling in to me, Brad's Gramma and Jeff Head with live updates from the scene. I am told that cellphone coverage in Crawford is spotty. However, it may have gotten better of late.

We'll see.

Hat's off to Basil, Doctor Raoul, The Sarce and 2ndAmendmentMama (and anyone else) who've been scrambling the past two days to make this happen. Good luck!

Thanks! My folks would love that since one of my relatives is going for his third tour and my brother is going back in November. My dad was pretty broken up during the prayer today...he could hardly deliver the remainder of it. This means more than ya'll know.

Yes! Great job Doc! Great pic too. By the way did you meet that oustanding American caught over your right shoulder? Hope you got her to sign up at FR! ;-)

For reference:

On a larger screen, the image is still blurry, but it appears to be her hat and one of her great signs from Fayetteville!

I couldn't help but notice how these folks had very nasty and foul appearances let alone the attitudes. When you are nasty on the inside it can't help but cloud around you.

I can only imagine...

Welcome to FR! And thanks for your photos!

Jeff-been away for a few days-this is the first thread I hit thanks to your ping.........JUST WOW! And Jeff, the pictures are terrific. This is really lifting me, and WAY MORE importantly, will lift our terrific, courageous, wonderful troops (hopefully, if this patriotic group hits the air waves) !

Again, thanks, and please keep me on your ping list.

She said she was a freeper when she arrived. Maybe she'll give you a call?

To be fair, most of them did flash us peace signs. Though a few did some weird things. One group stuck tongues out and put them against the window. Very mature.

"She is Catholic."

This is very disturbing to me, a Catholic. IMHO, she is either a sKerry/Kennedy Catholic and/or she doesn't practice her religion anymore. Or, perhaps the poor woman has just fallen off the deep end. Regardless, I'm sorry and I pity her.
