Op Infinite FReep: Fresno Support Our Troops/President Rally - 09/03/04 - Photos
Fresno/Central Valley Chapter ^ | 09/04/04 | JustAmy

Posted on 09/04/2004 6:26:53 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

We had a very successful rally last night. The weather was not too warm and we had a large enthusiastic group. Doctor Raoul sent a karaoke machine so Amy's niece Marissa used the mike to lead us in chants of USA, USA and Four More Years. We played patriotic and country music throughout the evening. As usual, the motorist response was overwhelming. For the most part, they are happy to see us out there.

In addition there were several people who joined us from a Jewish Republican Group and a couple of families who heard us on local radio last month.

A very special surprise was a visit from a soldier who is home from Iraq for two weeks. He is getting married Tuesday and was accompanied by his finance and her son. He thanked us for all the support. He wanted to let us know how much our support, packages and letters means to the personnel serving in Iraq.

After the rally, we met at Lyons for dinner and an informal chapter meeting. Setting up a chapter web page, the picnic and the inauguration were the topics discussed.

And as you can see that there isn't a single American flag among the peace crowd. They are so un-American it makes me sick.

I love that they "clock out" at 6:30 sharp every time. We need to find out who has them on their payroll and why.

Thanks for the post, Jim. Sounds like you were joined by some very interesting people -- what an encouragement that must have been! Also good to read about the chapter plans. And always, THANKS for this wonderful website.

LOL! After all this time, you still act like a n00bie FReeper.

You're looking good BTW.

God bless you Jim.

I will get a few more posted when I can get them organized. We had a fantastic time Friday. It is always fun when another group comes to help show our support of our military.

Friday was the first Friday of the month, so the peacenics were out in force on our corner. As we have been doing, we were there to counter their protests with our Support the Troops Rally.

We are having our annual picnic on the 11th so we will be out showing our support again on the 10th. If any of you will be able to attend the picnic, we would love to have you join us.

I have a few more pictures from Friday night; hope you enjoy them.

Hope to see everyone next week!!

For a moment there, Mr. Robinson, I thought you were talking about John Kerry...
