Thanks for a good report, spacetrucker. I went down to the rally tonight, there were a lot of horns honking in support. Guess this war is not so unpopular in Oil City, Pa.
As for a GOE presence in Venango County, There are 4 of us from Franklin, Pa. who have been to at least 1 of the Washington, D.C. rallies. I wrote an essey, somewhere on Free Republic titled: What good is a free press, if it is not a fair press. The local papers have printed zilch regarding the Gathering of Eagles, it is as if we never existed! However, 45-50 anti-war protesters are worthy of front page headlines.
Absurd!! I would make one more quick point and that is that in the independent Baptist churches, where I have spent 48+ years, patriotism has always been promoted!
David Foote, pastor of Baptist Temple, Franklin, Pa
Thank you so much for coming out to join us and bringing Stephen and Burt with you. It is an honor to stand among such patriotic people...look forward to seeing you again! Gloria’s 81 year young mother stood out with us in Meadville Sat. afternoon- God bless her soul.
