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!

Isn't that the southern side of TaxRelief, second from the left?

I just want to be thought of as sophisticated. Everyone the REAL sophisticated people swear all the time. :-)


(seriously, the first time I went there I couldn't believe the language they used. I don't go there a lot, but I really can't think of anything like I'd call debate going on there. Unlike Freerepublic.

[Brad’s Gramma]

I just found a VIDEO!!!!!!!

Missed the live thread today. I went out and had me some fun. So, I will need to catch up.

But, a

Big Ceegar

to all who got this most excellent Freep done on very short notice. I do believe that Cindy is going to have a lot of company for the duration.

I think I heard that she might be coming to DC later?

Pity the fool.

Have your gone to the Sequipedalia site yet to see the words to befuddle the left with. They spend the next two years trying to find out what any of them meant.

[Grampa Dave]

Great link.

Too bad my grandkids blew out my sound board on my computer.

[Jeff Head]

I believe that video is from Michael Gallagher's rally yesterday.

Look what else they have there:

Whoops.

Carry on.

[Tax-chick]

BTTT for Dr. Raoul. He makes the leftist moonbats so MAD!

[Grampa Dave]

Was that a freeper in the MSN video of our people? If so who was the one with the mike?

[Jeff Head]

It's okay...people from all over are responding and the more the better. I hope to see a Fox News or other outlet video of the FR rally as well.

[Brad’s Gramma]

I don't have Flash installed on here, so *sniff* I can't watch it.

Nor do I WANT to install it. (I think)

[Jeff Head]

I believe that was Mike Gallagher, a talk show host from Dallas who arranged a rally yesterday. It was not of our FR rally, but it is just indicative that more and more people are realizing what is going on and are not going to put up with it...and that is very good.
