C-SPAN2 TO BROADCAST BLUE STAR MOTHERS RALLY ON MONDAY 3/15 AT 8 A.M. EST
C-SPAN ^ | Sunday, March 14, 2004 | Kristinn

The Blue Star Mothers of America Support our Troops Rally will be broadcast on C-SPAN2 Monday morning at 8 a.m. EST.

The two hour long rally has been edited down to one hour for broadcast. Set your Tivos and VCRs if you're going to work or sleeping in. There were many excellent speeches given, all of them to be precise. But we'll see what survived. Hopefully they had the decency not to edit out Bob Dole's surprise appearance.

They'll probably leave in my stage fright moment where I forgot the words to the pledge of allegiance. No chance of a second take for that.

Here's the final line-up as cribbed by me as the rally went on:

Presentation of the colors by the Rolling Thunder Virginia Chapter #3.

Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem.

Susan Naill, President of the Blue Star Mothers of America.

Kevin Martin, Project 21.

Kathy Mizner, Blue Star Mother.

Arthur Foss, President, Chapter #s, Rolling Thunder.

Nofel Al-Jazairi, Free Iraqi.

Senator Robert J. Dole.

Niger Innis, Congress of Racial Equality.

Kerri Whalen, Blue Star Mother.

Nikki Mendicino, Nikki's POW/MIA Vigil.

Kelly Jefferson, Operation Free Spike (Capt. Scott Speicher.)

Capt. Frank Davis, USNR (Ret.)

Kristinn Taylor, Co-Leader, D.C. Chapter of Free Republic.

Thanks for your support of the Blue Star Mothers. It was a great rally and I'm glad it'll be seen by more people on C-SPAN2.

Ping DC Chapter.

Kristinn says he had a moment of stage fright. I thought that he was just testing the rest of us on the pledge. You know, like a rock star who stops singing a song momentarily so he can hear the audience singing the words for a line or two.

Good news!

Alas, I don't have cable anymore.

I'll have to rely on a kind-hearted soul to let me watch his copy...
