You beat me to it, I was just getting ready to post the same article.

Our rally was a success. If we had not been there, the lefties would have gotten ALL the press. Thanks for doing such a great job talking to the reporter. See you April 17th to welcome our troops home.

Our local Army Reserve Unit has just left Iraq for Kuwait. I have a friend in the unit. God Bless them all.

I'm looking forward to the April 17th celebration.

I think the article was fairly balanced. The reporter appeared, during my discussion with her, to be making a good faith effort to research the story despite what also appeared to be her identification with the anti-war marchers. I'm pleased with her story.

Since there were far more anti-war protesters than there were of us, it makes sense that they had most of the press. You're quite right - if we had not been there, the leftists would have gotten the entire coverage.

Therefore, my stated goal to the reporter: we demonstrated to show that there was an alternative voice to the anti-war crowd - was accomplished and fulfilled by the press itself. A nice convergence of efforts.
