Just talked to Basil on site in Crawford, Texas. Currently there are about 100 folks there helping to set up. They have not received word about the caravan arrival in Waco yet. JimRob is riding with the caravan. She thinks it might get to Crawford around 1:00 p.m.
Basil says the stage is set up, the sound system is excellent and they have hung the most beautiful banners overnighted by W04Man on the stage. A big thanks for the banners, they are much appreciated!
Someone arrived early and hung yellow ribbons everywhere.
They have an American flag that is about 50 feet by 40 feet. Children of military personnel serving in the Middle East have written notes to their parents on the stripes of this flag. A very touching thing to behold.
The HOT Chapter booth is being unloaded right now. The will sell buttons made by Angelwood to help off set costs.
Someone rented the Community Center for our use so there is access to AC. However, they also have 10 tents set up. And there is a Moonwalk for the kiddos.
To top everything else there is BBQ on the grill! Basil is the official taster and says it is great!
That is all the news I have at the moment. It is hard to get a cell phone connection to Crawford but when I hear more I will try to update everyone.
Well, Heck just froze over.
Check your freepmail
yeah, and not just about the Swifttes either. hell, I remember them trashing Zell's speech as too heated! Then it came out the American people loved it!
I keep noticing the AP taglines: "Thousands of anti-war protestors and pro-troop supporters...blah blah blah," lumping the numbers together to intentionally misrepresent the facts.
Just for grins, I actually Googled your literal link name, 'neo nazi + useful idiot' and Google responded with close to 58,000 hits!
LOL! No way am I going to go down that entire list to see if any actually resolved to 'David Duke + Cindy Sheehan'.
CNN just announced their upcoming report from Crawford and are going to be airing a story about the Pruett family. (The family that Pres. Bush referred to)
Turn to CNN, live report on now.
check your mail...
"Unless I'm uniformed, MAF, doesn't have near the supporters with near the wealth (such as Soros) as mov.org and there is no comparison. It just fries my eggs that they can't show the rally and when they finally report on it, they can't report the truth. I thought Fox was different, but, with a few exceptions on that station, they're almost as bad as the rest of the MSM."
Great post! I totally agree with you! George Soros, the billionare, has way too much power in this country. The MSM gives him and his ilk constant free coverage.
I can't believe this....better coverage for our side from CNN than from FOX...
3 PM Pacific Time and Foxnews finally showed maybe a 10 second snippet about the counter rally. Real lousy coverage and they have heard about it from me.
Cindy Sheehan is supporting to the terrorists. How many more have to die because she is giving support to the enemy?
I was suprised they showed that! Awesome message and TRUE!!!
Another invasion of DC!
Lots of thumbs up all around!
Yes, just Cindy...... taking camp casey to congress.... ha!!
How truly sad; a much better and fullsome report on CNN than on FNC. Thank you CNN for your fair and honest report; no thanks to you FNC for ignoring this story all day long.
Quite true! Truly true! CNN put the estimate of those arriving today at 2500 but they left the sheeple with the impression that it was equally divided. At least that statement gave that impression. It was the best reporting from CNN I've ever seen. Which isn't saying much.
Is it me or did that CNN guy seem shook up?
