    We had the largest turnout and most appreciative response from motorists yesterday! At the peak over 40 people were on the four corners of US 41 Bypass & D. Venice Ave. between 1-3PM. The safe return of seven POWs on Palm Sunday morning added to our feelings of joyful thanksgiving. We brought large yellow bows and tied them to the four traffic light posts on the four corners. We also gave away over 200 yellow ribbons to the drivers stopped for red lights. Some returned later to drive by and show the ribbon tied to their radio antennas. Several people...

    Finally the south steps of the Capitol in Austin TX. were covered with American flags and support the troops signs. Lots of support for President Bush. It was thrilling after so long of just a few of us meeting to support the troops to see the place covered with flags, cheering people and many saying we won't be silent any more.

Donations from individuals and businesses will be used to purchase long distance minutes and U.S. Central Command has offered to help in the distribution of the phone cards to the troops.

    Star Telegram ^ | March 30, 2003 | By Bill Bishop and Richard Florida
    When Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines told an audience in London that she was "ashamed" that President Bush came from Texas, she had no reason to think her words would cause country music stations in parts of the United States to boycott the trio's latest album and their best-selling hit single, Travelin' Soldier. It wasn't just that she was caught up in Europe's anti-war spirit; something more profound is in play here. Maines lives and works in artsy, liberal Austin. Her remark wouldn't cause a ruckus among the like-minded transplants who have moved there in droves during the past...

    I have been asked by many family members and others what items our deployed servicemen and women would find useful and appropriate for a "Care Package" or as better-than-issued equipment. With extensive deployed operations expected to continue for the foreseeable future, our troops will require, and deserve, continued support from those of us for whom they are fighting. Regardless of your position on any particular mission, these men and women are doing their duty to you and our country, going in harm's way and sometimes making the ultimate sacrifice. They deserve our unwavering support.

  • Liberal “supports troops”, but how? (Rush Limbaugh)

    Rush's show | Mar 28, 2003 | Rush
    A caller to Rush’s show today said that he was a Liberal, but that he supported the troops. Rush challenged him by stating that if he (caller) voted for a Democrat for any office, he probably voted for someone who doesn’t support the troops, in the form of not voting for pay raises, voting against defense spending and similar actions. Rush went on to mention other people who “supported the troops”, but who publicly denounced them) as did Rep. Conyers). This makes a good point. Those anti-war people who “support” the troops; exactly how do they support them?
