Awesome job, well done! And just so you know...the Bansheehan Bus will find similar sights along the way! :-)

Great report. Thank you for all your efforts.

Well done and thanks for the report.

[JusPasenThru]

BTTT.

[GopherIt]

Thanks injin for that GSW story. Got there way too late to run into any known FR folks, but spent some long moments at Ft. Qualls. Thanks to you heroes of HOT and my DC buddies for what you accomplished. The folks of Crawford I met were thumbs up and proud of the show you all brought to town.

First of all, of course, is Kristinn. There are not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the contribution he made to this endeavor. Those of you who know Kristinn know what I mean--the rest of you will have to take our word for it. Kristinn is Kristinn and is one of FR's finest gifts.

I will second that about Kristinn. Thank you from my heart Kristinn for all you do.

I am nearly in tears as I type this because I am so happy that all of you went there to stand up for our country and our troops. God bless you all.

[Just A Nobody]

Thank you all for the many things you do for FR and especially our troops. What a wonderful event to show that real Americans support our Military, the President and their mission. Thanks for all the hard work including the live thread.

First of all, of course, is Kristinn. There are not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the contribution he.....makes for us all!

Kristinn and Doctor Raoul, you were missed Friday night. Luckily we found about eight dozen extras to fill your shoes. It was a sight to behold. ;*)

[2nd amendment mama]

Obviously you've never been in a car with her...I have....LOL

[2nd amendment mama]

Excellent report lady! I just wish that I could have been there with you. You, Kristen and the rest of the folks who put this together have my undying gratitude for your support of the troops, our President and our country.

BTW, I told you that you'd get more than 500 to show up....LOL

[Angelwood]

You bring tears to my eyes, a smile to my lips and laughter at your antics.

God bless you and all the others who participated in the Support Our Troops Rally in Crawford. A great big THANK YOU, as well. It was a good day and our messages of support will find their way to the people who matter.

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS, GOD BLESS PRESIDENT BUSH AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!

FReep On!

[McGavin999]

I'm so glad to hear that. Those wonderful people have had to put up with a lot and I hope they made LOTS of money over the weekend.

[basil]

Dear Angelwood I forgot to mention what a hit your buttons were.

For those who don't know, Angelwood makes the most fitting, wonderful buttons for most all freeper events. They are outstanding, and she sent a supply of "Support the troops" buttons to pass out at the rally. They were a hot item!

BTW, Angel--Kristinn is bringing home the bacon.

[AGreatPer]

basil took over the driving for Doctor Raoul. Oh boy, did you just give me some future ammunition.

Basil, you all did a wonderful job. What a difference a week or two makes when Freepers decide to counter attack. I will admit, they caught us off guard early on. Now, they see what they get when they mess with the TRUTH.

Proud of Kristinn and Doctor Raoul for doing the AWAY trip.

Lots of us that couldn't make it were rooting you all on. And guess what, you all suceeded.

No Longer did that griven lady get all the coverage, although the MSM tried to avoid you.

Personally, my take was that YOU ALL SHOCKED THE MSM. They never figured this was coming.

THANK YOU TEXAS FREEPERD. THANK YOU ALL THAT ATTENDED.

[dixie sass]

Wtg Basil and everyone. There was one small mention on the eleven o'clock news on ABC. "...and on the other side of town a counter protest was taking place."

[YourAdHere]

Beth,

Excellent. Look forward to freeping with you on the 24th! I haven't been to a freep in forever. Cannot wait!

Your Ad Here

[Billie]

Thank you, thank you, thank you....to ALL who attended, and all who have posted their comments, reports and PICTURES on other threads! You are all awesome!

[AGreatPer]

Hi dixie, hope your camera is still working (remembe fumble fingers here?).

I saw a nice articles in 3 major Pennsylvania papers here today. OK, they were burried on pages 6-9 but they were good articles. I even saw a picture from the Freeper tent of a lady (don't know her) in red, white and blue. I could see Jim Rob's foot in the background so I know it was us.

All of the Freepers and others that went to this served a major purpose, and that is to let the MSM know that there are other opinions out there. Until our friends took actiion, the MSM was disgusting.

Still lots of work to do. Hope to see you in the future again dixie.

[Chieftain]

Out-freeping-standing FReep! All of you did a fantastic job, I only wish I could have been there with you.

[EmilyGeiger]

Great report! I'm glad things went so well for all of you great Americans. :) Today I went out to eat with my family and the restaurant we were in had CNN playing. I couldn't hear the sound but could see the pictures. They were not showing the rally but were showing the pics of the people tearing up the protest warrior sign. I was so frustrated because i couldn't hear and was wondering how they were spinning the incident. Did any one else see this coverage?

[2nd amendment mama]

Here ya go..... Maybe he's thinkin' of moving to TX???
