LIVE THREAD: H.O.T. CHAPTER'S CRAWFORD SUPPORT PRES. AND TROOPS RALLY (8/13/05)
Link to Announcement Thread ^ | Saturday, August 13, 2005 | Kristinn

Posted on 08/13/2005 6:55:59 AM PDT by kristinn

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!

Thanks for the update kritsinn...I had just Fremailed you.

God's speed to those in support of our troops and the ideals upon which our liberty rests.

President George W. Bush waves as he prepares to drive his pickup truck away after speaking to the press on his ranch in Crawford, Texas

If you can capture any photos of our people at their support rally...please do and post them here. Or, if they need to be hosted, I will be happy to do so, so they can be posted here.

Alas, I'm stuck here in the Houston area, Jeff. Had to miss this event so I'm posting blind as well... :-(

Heavenly Father, we return to thank You for the deep love of God and country You have given to our Freeper family ... may this love be manifested today in Crawford for all the world to see. Hinder every attempt to shield the public from seeing or hearing about patriotic support of our troops and their mission ... use every means to bring this day to the hearts and minds of Americans, that we might see and understand that the enemy of our country is formidable, but greater are You, O God. Grant journey mercies to all who are traveling ... grant success to their efforts ... turn hearts and minds back to the foundation on which our beloved United States has been established ... love of God and love of country. In the Name of Jesus, may it be thus, O Lord, may it be thus ... Amen ...

Amen, Pegita.

That is a beautiful prayer that bears repeating!

You're welcome. I believe that was yesterday or the day before. I am waiting for pictures from today from folks on site. It'll be hard unless they have camera cell phones and can get coverage.

LOL! What's that from? The DUmmyland beauty pageant? Or is that "Ms. Liberal 2005"?

I had hoped we'd be able to make it down to Crawford today, but family matters require we stay near home...*sigh* ...we are there in spirit though and will keep an eye on this live thread throughout the day!

BTW, at least one of the local TV news stations in Dallas ran a story about the 100 Pro-Bush ~ Support the Troops group who showed up in Crawford last evening!!

How long do you think Cindy would stay if the press went home?

Have a feeling her cause would suddenly not seem so important to her.

And Amen once more.

My heart is in Crawford also and my hands are on the USMC flag that will wave. Thanks to the generosity of Freepers-
Deep, deep gratitude.
