Move America Forward will be conducting the “You Don’t 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 Forward’s Robert Dixon: Robert@MoveAmericaForward.org
Free men and women will stand in Crawford......and the cause it is just.

Thank You!!!!!!!!!
For your support of your family, the war effort, and honoring the sacrifice of our soldiers.
Your personal sacrifices are honored and appreciated by many.
Morning Leni, Sure do wish Texas was closer. Would just jump in my pick up and drive down for the day.
That verse of the SPB just about says it all....truly timeless.
Good morning, am getting ready to attend the San Diego Rally. Daughter will be attending with me. Am very excited.
Beautiful
Contact Jim Robinson.......he'll probably agree and use your help.
Great tagline........

The thing these people do not get... If your child was bitten and killed by a rattlesnake, and you had more children. You would go out in the backyard and kill any other rattlesnakes you could find.
You would not say "Well, that snake hasn't bitten anyone yet".
The real problem here is that now we have a fervent anti-war group supported by our media and polls suggesting that the apathetic center is being swayed by them. There are still poisonous snakes and we either will cut their heads off, or they will spawn more snakes and eventually, someone on our side is going to get bitten really bad.
It is beyond "freedom of speech" here, we are talking about aiding and abetting the enemy.

Thanks for the report.
I love hearing reports from FReepers who met the Caravan. Did you get any pictures?
Thanks for the ping, BG
I can't keep up on all of the threads.
I didn't personally, but there was a lady there who was taking TONS of them.
She at least promised to send me the one of me and Jim. :-)
Bet we can talk her out of a bunch more. ;-)
Hi there, Impeach.
Are you posting every night? If so will you add me to your ping list, please?
I made three phone calls last night before I could get thru to Jim and company.
I wanted to make sure they were not still parked at Riverland. :)
Please post any pictures that she sends you. We are all anxious for pictures of this HUGE event.
I have a few more from the Fresno Rally that I will try to post later today.
"The marriage of Move America Forward, Deborah Johns and Free Republic is making this caravan a massive success!!!"
Y'all absolutely ROCK! THANK YOU!

There were bits of coverage on all the local news programs last night and this morning: interviews with Deborah Johns and shots of the caravan pulling in to Buena Park last night. Good going! God bless you all!!
Looking forward to pictures and report. Aren't you going to Yuma today?
Have you eaten all the cheese yet? :)
