I was one of about 50 on the bus and another additional half dozen cars that went down there yesterday with Mike Gallagher of KRLD radio here in Dallas..he put it together yesterday in about 2-3 hours. Got a donated bus and food and a bunch of great folks went down and put on a show supporting our President and our troops. We met some folks in Crawford who had driven from the surrounding area and went out to where the goofies were congregated. There seemed to be more press than goofies there until we arrived and then the press came running over to our side of the road.....pretty amazing. The goofies just stood there and looked....you guessed it...goofy.

The ones I observed seemed like the fools that were making one last protest effort before they take a dirt nap. Probably got there start in the 60's..pretty pathetic lot at best....

I was going to drive down today to be with the Freepers...but the bus was too tempting. Side note...a lady who has a resturant in Bellmeade brought over two giant pans of fried chicken and rolls and donated them to us....she had heard we were coming and wanted to make a statement....Made me proud to be a Texan....and of course an American, good folks that they are..

God bless you for being there. Wish I could get away and do the same...and stay for a few weeks like we did in Klamath in 2001.

Mrs. Sheenan is the focus of the press and they and she and her Code Pink, MoveON.org , and Michael Moore friends think they have found an unassailable individual because they are using her status as a grieving mother. Well, here's what the "grieving" mother has to say about her own son's voluntary sacrifice and last full measure of devition:

One of the questions I was going to be asked was: Do I think my son's sacrifice was "worth it?" In answer to the original question Larry: No it wasn't worth it!!

Apparently, she and her son disagreed.

Here are some of her other comments:

This war was sold to the American people by a slimy leadership with a maniacal zeal and phony sincerity that would have impressed snake oil salesmen a century ago.

The 56,000,000 plus citizens who voted against you and your agenda have given me a mandate to move forward with my agenda. Also, thanks to you and your careless domestic policies, I am unemployed, so this will be my full-time job. Being your political downfall will be the most noble accomplishment of my life and it will bring justice for my son and 1125 (so far) other brave Americans and tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis your lies have killed. By the way, George, how many more innocent Iraqis are your policies going to kill before you convince them that you are better than Saddam? How many more of their cities are you going to level before you consider that they are liberated?

George, I must confess that I and my family worked very HARD to re-defeat you this time, but you refuse to stay defeated. Well, we are watching you very carefully. We are going to do everything in our power to have you impeached for misleading the American people into a disastrous war and for mis-using and abusing your power as Commander-in-Chief. We are going to scream until our last breath to bring the rest of our babies home from this quagmire of a war that you have gotten our country in to
At some point...it stopped being grief and it became hate.
