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!
MARINE MOTHERS FOR BUSH were at center stage during a pro-Bush, pro-U.S. troops rally outside Pirate Field in Crawford Saturday.

ABOUT 50 PRO-BUSH SUPPORTERS came out to Pirate Field in Crawford Saturday to rally for the families of U.S. soldiers who believe their mission is not yet accomplished in Iraq. The event was organized by FreeRepublic.com, a conservative news discussion website. — Iconoclast Photo By Nathan Diebenow
I won't hold my breath. I did tell him to keep his politics off the altar. The parish has quite a few men and women serving in the military, some in Iraq, he really stepped in it. We are a working class neighborhood, not liberal, the majority of the parish supported the president.
Anyone got the link to that?
The lady sitting down is Waco-K
Absolutely I'll keep you posted. Thanks
Even the Catholic Church has its share of liberals. Amazing.
Will do.
A yahoo search only nets a couple of sites. Not sure which one it is.
There is always www.americasupportsyou.mil where we can send direct messages of support to the troops.
Thanks for posting that transcript. I was driving into the fever swap when I heard it live on the Northern Alliance radio show - my absolute favorite of the week! Taxpayer's League is a close second.
Next time I'm in Texas, Coffee Station is where I want to be!
Maybe I'll fling some Dr. Scholl's Odor Eaters at the Birkensotck wearers at the Peace House.
(Which brings up the question: How do lefties afford Birkenstocks? I was at the store on Grand in St. Paul last fall, about $100 for flip flops, yikes!)
How about we all adopt Casey Sheehan. He deserves more respect than he gets from his own mother. We could have a monument made in memorial for his service to our country and see if the Pres would like to have a comment inscribed on it?????
The Catholic Church has more liberals than conservatives I believe. Especially in the bigger cities and the East Coast.
When we see a man like Bush as faithful, and devout in his faith, I find it inconceivable that a priest could attack him, or be a party to someone that has trashed President Bush's character.
I am glad you sent the information.
Thank you!
Let us know if you get any response back.
God Bless.
Yes, I found that out today when I asked around. And these were our kind of people. I was amazed that we were not a household word. We should be.
The MARINE MOTHERS FOR BUSH... Those are the women I saw on our local news yesterday! I called several names out of the phone book in Houston but couldn't locate anyone.
I did leave a few messages so maybe someone will contact me once they rest up from the trip. I hope someone introduced them to FR.... Then again, maybe they already know!
You really don't even have to label the anti-Bush groups and the pro-troops pictures...
There is definitely a dearth of American flags in the top three pictures....then you scoll down, and voila many, many flags!!!!! BEAUTIFUL!
Yes, please. Keep us posted, thanks.
Ping for rally news. Hey, I got my "1 second of fame" on Fox! LOL
