A pro-troops/pro-Bush rally will be held this Saturday in Crawford, Texas by Killeen radio station KLFX 107.3 FM and sister station KWTX 1230 AM.
The rally will begin at noon and will be held at a parking lot next to the Crawford Bank. Free hamburgers and sodas will be given away until supplies are exhausted.
A spokesman for KLFX said that those who are calling this an anti-Cindy Sheehan rally are wrong. The station wanted to have an event to offer a means for the public to show their support for the troops serving at nearby Fort Hood and their commander-in-chief in contrast to the antiwar/anti-Bush protesters descending on Crawford this week.
The station says the free cookout is meant to tweak the leftist 'hunger-strikers' in Crawford, not make fun of Cindy Sheehan.
Texas Ping for Crawford Rally Saturday 8/13 High Noon!
I will be in the hospital, but wish I could go. This has been getting mention by DUmmies, with the usual mocking. If a big enough crowd shows up they will be hard pressed to ignore it......but i am betting th MSM will try to do so in any case
Way to go.
Wish I could fly down there to participate.
Amen.
BTTT
Thanks for ping DD!
Hey LS! Check this out!
Whatever ;^)
From another link it sounds like this Sheehan lady has been sipping the kool aid. I'll be at my rock pile Saturday, but if there's any way at all I can skip out, I'll be there.
BTW, what ever became of MsAntifeminazi? There was a Freep at Baylor University two or three years ago and I think she was able to contact the campus Young Republicans for a more organized protest.
Thanks for the ping.

Baylor U. (Waco) graduation ceremony starts at 10 am Sat. Hopefully the speeches will be brief.

And a bump!
Hey, this is in your neck of the woods, Squantos. :-) Crawford's within an hour of everything in Texas, right?

Haven't seen you in awhile, hope all is well.

How long a drive is it from Waco?
Count me in!
About 20 minutes
I just returned from a trip to Fort Hood. On the way to the airport this morning I heard all about this Bar-B-Que/Rally. The morning show hosts were bragging about the Bush Burgers (insert your own joke here). They were getting dozens of supporting calls. One woman called the secretary at her office to complain but was too chicken to speak to them on the air. Anyway, sounds like they're gonna have a boat-load of fun. Wish I could have stayed through the weekend.
Yall want to go to Crawford this Sat.?
