Supporters of U.S. Involvement in Iraq Plan Caravans to Texas

Move America Forward will be conducting the “You Don’t Speak for Me, Cindy” caravan beginning next week. It will feature military family members who have loved ones serving in the war against terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan. The delegation will be led by Deborah Johns of Marine Moms. (Her son has served in Operation Iraqi Freedom).

Main caravan leaves from San Francisco, California on Monday, August 22nd. Other caravans will depart from around the country. If you want to be part of a caravan, email us with your name and location you will depart from and we will include in our caravan coverage so people in your area can depart with you.

Everyone arrives in Crawford, Texas for a giant “We Support Our Troops AND Their Mission” Rally on Saturday, August 27, 2005.

If you have a loved one serving in Iraq or Afghanistan and would like to join the caravan please contact Move America Forward’s Robert Dixon: Robert@MoveAmericaForward.org

Wow. So their brother/son was a baby killer, but Cindy's son was not? Their logic is unbelievably twisted. Did they get the cross back? Gosh, I wish I was there to help!

"If you served in Vietnam I bet you were one of Kerry's soulmates."

Actually, he didn't say he served in Vietnam. He said he served during the Vietnam war. It could have been stateside.

Are they still scheduled for talk radio in Fresno?

Jim will you be joining the caravan? We need someone to call Ray Apppleton today or tomorrow. Maybe he will help out with this.

Keep us informed of anything between Fresno and Visalia. It would be great to be able to show our support. I may be able to get a few others to join us.

We don't have a lot of time to plan this.

Jim ..... any suggestions?

Have you noticed how these trolls hit and run? (namely billyfd and Rational Citizen). They don't have the courage to stick around and defend their foul statements. Typical leftist cowards.

Did you see/hear this? a mother and sister of a fallen soldier who were there trying to remove the cross with their son's/brother's name on it. They didn't want that cross to be a part of Cindy's protest of the war and other rants. The caller said that Cindy's group surrounded the mother and daughter/sister and had the sister in tears because of their "baby killer" chants against her brother.

I can not believe I missed Rush today!!! I thought it was Saturday.

Hey All,

Here are two quotes coming out of the Administration. What has happened in the last year to change their minds??? Were they wrong then or are they wrong now?
And a better question for all Americans is what the hell do we do now? Stay the course? It is starting to look more and more like the outcome of the war will be an Islamic republic closely allied with Iran. I’m thinking “kick their as and steal their gas” just ain’t getting the job done.

"Administration critics are what we call the reality- based community, people who believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality. We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. We're history's actors ... and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."
~Senior adviser to President Bush –NYT Magazine, Oct. 17, 2004.

"What we expected to achieve was never realistic given the timetable or what unfolded on the ground," "We are in a process of absorbing the factors of the situation we're in and shedding the unreality that dominated at the beginning."
~ Senior US official involved in policy since the 2003 invasion -Washington Post; August 14, 2005

So, Amy, you aren't up to driving us to Texas? I 'd be willing to take a small loan and pay for the gas. LOL. ;-)

Syncro, you have all the fun!

We can't go to Texas, but Amy is trying to organize a get-together where we can welcome the caravan with flags, cold drinks and support. She is talking about doing it at the rest stop near Riverland/Kingsburg, I think. It will be on this coming Monday when the caravan comes through?

What if every military family in America requested 5 minutes with Cindy...

"We just want to talk with you for 5 MINUTES!"

And it could have been french fries! :)

Oh, I'm so happy that you will be there. I hope you can get some of the guys from the VFW to join you.

Is there any way we can give the caravan a heads-up?

Probably. But, heck, just look at how educational it would be for her to be a part of something like this. ;-)

Where do you get the idea we are stealing their gas? You been reading up at DU again? If we WANTED to steal their gas we damn well could.
