Bump!

I hope this snowballs along the way! Wish it was coming through my town. Minnesota would be quite a detour however. There in spirit.

I wish I was able to set up a support demonstration for one day over the weekend in my own town...unfortunately, I haven't any idea how to go about it...nor do I think I would have the ability to finance such an undertaking.

I know I could get the media coverage...I just don't know what all is involved in setting it up!

Kaza was interviewed by a Fresno Bee Reporter. I'll look for any comments in tomorrow's edition and try to post them back here.

Thanks for the update, sure wish we could have been there, but we have a housefull of guests! Glad so many showed up. Tell me, if you know, did Ray Appleton show up? He said on air today that he might.

So you were there? Maybe you can answer my question about Appleton? Someone called his show today to mention the rally but I didn't get the name.

So, did all the hub-bub get ironed out yesterday for you? I didn't follow to the end of the thread.

So, you hung in there after getting a verbal beating from some here on FreeRepublic yesterday?

Good for you! Keep us posted!

I don't remember the name of the caller either. I didn't see Ray there either.

The article was in the Bee today, but Kaza comments didn't appear.

I made contact with a number of College Republicans in Texas this morning. They all sounded enthusiatic about getting at least a few people to the rally. Thankfully there are no Texas A & M or University of Texas college football games this weekend. I'm going to call the Texas A & M Corps of Cadets office in a few minutes to see if they have any interest of promoting this event to their students. Won't find a more patriotic group of college students anywhere than the Corps of Cadets at A & M.
