The organizers of our rally in Houston repeatedly made it a point to emphasize this was a Pro-America rally, not a Pro-Republican, Pro-Bush, or Pro-War rally. Several prominent Democrats were given personal invitations to attend. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee was the only one to attend probably because the site of the rally is in her district and she is a notorious publicity seeker even at the risk of bad press. It tells us all a lot about liberals that other prominent Democrats invited to come out and celebrate the goodness of America didn't show up.
I was also pleased to see that our local TV network affiliate stations covered the rally in a positive light. Their reports emphasized the patriotism angle rather than the conservative partisan angle which would normally be their approach.
Odd that she would accept your invitation if she knew beforehand the nature of the rally.
