The Heart of Texas Chapter of FreeRepublic.com is holding a rally in Crawford, Texas today to show America's support for our troops, President Bush and the war on terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere around the world.
The rally will be held at noon at the Crawford Civic Center at 1000 4th Street.
Freepers are coming from near and far to join the H.O.T. Chapter in Crawford. If you live within four hours drive of Crawford, it's not too late to hit the road and get on down there.
Folks in attendance will be calling in to me, Brad's Gramma and Jeff Head with live updates from the scene. I am told that cellphone coverage in Crawford is spotty. However, it may have gotten better of late.
We'll see.
Hat's off to Basil, Doctor Raoul, The Sarce and 2ndAmendmentMama (and anyone else) who've been scrambling the past two days to make this happen. Good luck!
Uh oh, be careful. LOL
I think once or twice - in a throw away line. But, I agree, we are part of his show prep for certain staffers.
And hopefully retract his remarks in his next homily?
He has in the past. He even let us post a FR get back at him on his own page.
The nerve of that priest, I'm sorry!
Keep us posted on if you get a response. I doubt it, but then again, we have our own battles in the Church with these types, no?
Me too, Tx. Now those are parents a warrior could be proud of!
I'd like to 2nd that
Thank You All!!!
While reading these posts .. I'm reminded of this
You got that right. I think I'd be out of my mind if I didn't have FR, living in the People's Republic up here.
Agreed. :)
Y'all done real good!
I think he will respond to my email, he's quite young only 32, he's only been a pastor for 3 years. I thought about leaving, but thought, no I want to attend Mass. I just shook my head at him, he saw me. I'll let you know what he has to say for himself.
AND HIS REQUEST WAS
That we visit the site where you can adopt a soldier. Someone needs to post the exact site. You send the soldier letters, toothpaste, etc. He said there are troops out there who need the support. One of the Moms (Maybe his mom?) hoped that every soldier on the site would be adopted.
Ping me and keep me posted
I have to go run a couple of errands ... will be back soon to post more pictures.
Please let me know, as well.
That guy was great. Humble and meek.
... and he can't wait to go back and kick some butt for a fourth time!
You guys did us proud. Thank you for representing us so well and for showing your support for our troops and President Bush. God bless each of you!
