Move America Forward will be conducting the You Dont Speak for Me, Cindy caravan beginning next week. It will feature military family members who have loved ones serving in the war against terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan. The delegation will be led by Deborah Johns of Marine Moms. (Her son has served in Operation Iraqi Freedom).
Main caravan leaves from San Francisco, California on Monday, August 22nd. Other caravans will depart from around the country. If you want to be part of a caravan, email us with your name and location you will depart from and we will include in our caravan coverage so people in your area can depart with you.
Everyone arrives in Crawford, Texas for a giant We Support Our Troops AND Their Mission Rally on Saturday, August 27, 2005.
If you have a loved one serving in Iraq or Afghanistan and would like to join the caravan please contact Move America Forwards Robert Dixon: Robert@MoveAmericaForward.org
BTTT!!!!!
BTT!!!!!
BTTT!!!!!!
I'd be interested. Is there a southbound rest area there? Is that somewhere around Riverland?
BTTT!!!!!!
Thank you.
I believe it is near Traver.
I've seen it several times but will need to check it out for easy access. There may be another area which would be better. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Oh lookie here - another one!! Geez the ozone is thick today!!
Did you catch Rush today? I didn't get to listen to it all, but I did hear the caller who was at Cindy's "event" (during part of the time Cindy was actually there instead of at her motel room). The caller told about a mother and sister of a fallen soldier who were there trying to remove the cross with their son's/brother's name on it. They didn't want that cross to be a part of Cindy's protest of the war and other rants. The caller said that Cindy's group surrounded the mother and daughter/sister and had the sister in tears because of their "baby killer" chants against her brother. (Anyone who doesn't think they've pulled out the same rule book from the first time they got by with this crap is delusional!)
I plan to grap the mp3 of that segment later so I can listen again! Sometimes we need our anger!
Hey, MarineBrat, haven't talked to you for awhile. This is a great idea, isn't it? We can't go to Texas, but we can show up and welcome and support the caravan as it goes through.
I know there is a northbound rest stop before you get to Fresno, I think it is near Riverland. Don't know about southbound.
OMG - you have GOT to be kidding me. What a bunch of media sluts. I didn't hear Rush at all - wishing now I had!!
Wow... what to say... If you served in Vietnam I bet you were one of Kerry's soulmates.
God bless those who honor, love, support, serve, and protect our country!

Monday August 22, 2005
6:00-8:00am Melanie Morgan KSFO
8:00am Press Conference in San Francisco
8:00-10:00am En Route to Sacramento / Press Event in Vacaville
10:00-11:00am Sacramento Media Appearance
12:00-1:00pm Press Conference/Sendoff
9:00-12:30am En Route to Fresno (up dated to 1:30/2:00pm En Route to Fresno)
That is the schedule for Monday.
I am going to hook up with the first leg of the caravan, and document it through Vacaville to Sacramento and then shoot ahead of it to Fresno. I think it is about a 2+ hour drive from Sacto to Fresno.
I don't see anything planned for when the caravan gets to Fresno late afternoon, but maybe they will have something planned by then.
I am waiting for a reply from Robert Dixon at Move America Forward for help organizing something.
Hay, Cool Guy! My first caravan was one you organized back in '00, want to come along??? LOL
These are sick, vile, evil, angry people. Be wary of them. But don't let them keep you silent. God bless you.
Welcome home!!!
That's it? You signed up for that?
The only Rest Stops on Southbound 99 that I'm aware of are located just south of Turlock and the one near Kingsburg.
We're headed for Central Oregon that weekend - otherwise I'd be there with signs and Old Glory to greet the Caravan.
DRATS! gonna miss this gathering and the FResno FReeper picnic on Sept. 10th.
Oh, no!!! What could possibly be more important than the FResno FReeper picnic??? We will miss you.
