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!

First report: Everyone's cell phone is going straight to voicemail, LOL!
Hopefully that means they're driving to Crawford and are just in dead spots.

No idea. Could be a few dozen, a few hundred or several thousand.
Reportedly, a radio personality with one of the stations that bailed on their own rally today is holding one in Crawford this morning on his own.
Maybe the two crowds can hook up.

FOX just showed a few seconds, said about fifty pro-Bush people were there. Do we have an honest count on how many anti-Bush people are at "Camp Casey?" From the close-in photos I've seen it only looks like about thirty.
