Nice tag line, I would steal it if I didn't already like mine better. (Besides "Islamophobia" is a nonsensical word like "Cubic-Sphere". It presupposes an irrational fear of something a rational person should be afraid of ! Makes as much sense as "Naziphobia" would have made 70 years ago )
Our adventure to New York, Long Island - was magical. The turnout was overwhelming. The 10AM event at the Chabad Synagogue was huge, the room (which held 200) was overflowing into the hallways and along the walls, easily had 300 inside, and there was another 400-500 outside (that's where we were) watching it on a huge screen, the sound system was great and we heard every word.
Lots of pictures and coverage at http://www.atlasshrugs.com
We got there early and were all set up, there were HUNDREDS of supporters there, like us, with flags and signs. When Pamela arrived around 9:30AM, the place was packed, she was immediately surrounded by the press, lots of TV cameras and well-wishers and supporters. I didn't see any liberals. If they were there, they were quiet and had no signs. The air was filled with decency, patriotism, love, and support for Pamela, her courage and passion for truth and free speech. Also Greg Buckley Sr spoke and he touched many hearts, and educated everyone about the terrible foreign policy Obama is practicing, how our troops are hated by the very people we are trying to help, his young son and 3 other Marines ambushed and killed by Afghans they were training...
I'm so glad I went. Special thanks to Sheepdogs Carol, Howard, and Mick for joining me. The four of us had a great day. We attended two events, one at 10AM, and another at 1PM. Both events were wonderful. Pamela Geller was elated and humbled by the tremendous show of support and love. She truly has built a loyal following of supporters and protectors, grateful for the brave way she refuses to be silenced by liberals and scared conservatives.
If you remember the first time you saw a big-league baseball field, or walked into DisneyWorld as a kid.. how it almost took your breath away. That's how yesterday was. We arrived at the synagogue, not knowing what to expect, but the crowd... the HUGE crowd - ALL PATRIOTS. So many, about 800-900 assembled and smiling and proud to be together to support this little Jewish lady named Pamela Geller. Wow, it gave you a chill to see.
Pamela was joined by Robert Spencer (another “Hall of Fame” Freedom Man) and Pamela Hall - the best videographer and photographer, she covers all of Pamela's events and makes it possible for us to witness her events when we can't be there.
Many many of you sent me emails saying “I can't go, but please tell Pamela how much we love her, she is the best.” - I did tell her for all of you.
We left after the second event and I couldn't stop smiling all the way home.
I'm sure her final event, at a synagogue in Edison, NJ at 7PM was just as heartwarming and crowded. I'm happy for Pamela and I'm proud of her supporters, they did not let her down.
Very Respectfully,
Rich Davis
