Our Rally was attended by 12 patriots. Most of those who attended were parents of sons and daughters serving in the Military. Three said they had children in boot camp.

We gathered in front of the Daily Camera Building on Pearl Street.

This is Boulders Daily Paper. The local conservatives have christened it The Daily Comrade.

"Colorado Gathering Of Eagles, Rally in Boulder Before Joining Move America Forward Caravan in Wichita Ks Boulder, Colorado, September 9th, 2007, 7:00 am to 8:00 am, Rally at 1048 Pearl Street

(BOULDER) – With General David Petraeus set to report to Congress by September 15th on the progress of "the surge" of U.S. troops in Iraq, supporters of Operation Iraqi Freedom are preparing to launch a massive public effort to show support for the missions of U.S. troops in Iraq. Colorado Gathering of Eagles and others are holding a early Sunday morning 7:00 am to 8:00 am Rally in Boulder before joining with Move America Forward in their cross-country caravan called the "FIGHT FOR VICTORY TOUR". The caravan will stop for more than 25 pro-troop rallies along the way. Thousands of Americans have already signed up to join the tour in just the first few days since it was announced online.. Colorado Gathering of Eagles III Rally and "Fight for Victory Tour" .

The caravan left Carson City Nevada on September 3rd, and was described as "History may yet record that crowds that came from the small towns to America's Capitol with one patriotic voice that finally overcame two centuries of hysterical anti-war rantings". Petraeus's Protestors by Catherine Moy Posted 08/03/2007. The Daily File Blog has live reports and pictures from the caravan."

We were all really "shocked and surprised" when none of the press showed up to cover this amazing story.

Why Amazing?

Well, Boulder County actually has some conservatives living in the People's Republic of Boulder!

We had a wonderful hour of fellowship together.

We started with a prayer, said the Pledge of Allegiance, and then sang The Start Spangled Banner. Then we went around the circle and everyone introduced themselves. Told why they took the time to come to a rally at 7am on a sunday morning, and shared thoughts and feelings about the War, Friends and loved ones who are serving, and insights into political conservative activism.

We signed a huge flag to be given to injured soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital, and we also made cards and posters for our troops.

All in all it was a very good rally.

When pictures are ready I'll post them here, and also include links to vids, Dale taped the whole thing.

Eagles up!

Please spread the word, 12 people gathered in the belly of the "Progressive" beast in Boulder Colorado....

It was a pleasure to meet you today and it is no surprise the media will not cover this. It will be as just a surprise when the eagles land in D.C. this next Saturday and take the wind out of the left again as it was in March.
We will fight them after the 15th in the halls of congress.

He is documenting the whole Fight for Victory Tour and daily uploading pictures every night.

Here are the first of his slide shows and this collection link will eventually contain all of the pictures from all of the Rallies, including DC.
