ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, MARYLAND - GRASS ROOTS WOMEN'S GROUP W.I.S.P. (WOMEN IN SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT BUSH) KICK-OFF BREAKFAST A HUGE SUCCESS!

Anne Arundel County, Maryland - What was originally planned as a meeting for 25 to 30 people, mushroomed into a standing room only event this morning at an Annapolis area restaurant. 120 women and several men, attended the first organizational meeting launching W.I.S.P., Women in Support of President Bush.

Group founders Gaye Galvin, Tammy Doring and Shirli LoSchiavo spoke to an enthusiastic crowd about their inspiration for creating W.I.S.P. "We found through casual conversation that we were on the same page politically, and we decided to do something about it."

"The attendance today was beyond our expectations and it shows that there is a desire for grassroots efforts to support President Bush."

250 buttons and 250 bumper stickers supporting the organization were scooped up by enthusiastic members anxious to show their support.

W.I.S.P. has received calls from as far away as Washington, California, and New York from women anxious to start W.I.S.P. Chapters in their area.

W.I.S.P. is comprised of women and their families who are dedicated to the re-election of George W. Bush. We believe in the President's vision for America and his strong and principled leadership. We seek to work at the grassroots level to register voters and mobilize support to ensure a Bush/Cheney victory in November 2004.


TOPICS: News/Current Events; Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: bush; election; grassroots; wisp; women; womensvote
This was an amazing event!!! We packed the house. Doro Bush Koch sent us a letter that was read at the breakfast. The response was truly over-whelming. Get the word out!!! One of the attendees called into G. Gordon Liddy talk show to tell him what an awesome event this was and what incredible energy was in this group. We will be at the Crab Feast Fundraiser in Chrisfield, MD with our buttons and t-shirts. We are also having another event in August. We are spreading the word nation-wide. There is more to come! For more information, email me through FR.

Keep up the great work. What can we, as Freepers, do to help spread your organization nationwide?

Does a platform drafted by this organization become a "Will-o-the-W.I.S.P.?

We are "WISPers". We are out to quiet the MOB. But we don't need to yell, because our message is loud and clear! Women in Support of President Bush.
