Just talked to Basil on site in Crawford, Texas. Currently there are about 100 folks there helping to set up. They have not received word about the caravan arrival in Waco yet. JimRob is riding with the caravan. She thinks it might get to Crawford around 1:00 p.m.
Basil says the stage is set up, the sound system is excellent and they have hung the most beautiful banners overnighted by W04Man on the stage. A big thanks for the banners, they are much appreciated!
Someone arrived early and hung yellow ribbons everywhere.
They have an American flag that is about 50 feet by 40 feet. Children of military personnel serving in the Middle East have written notes to their parents on the stripes of this flag. A very touching thing to behold.
The HOT Chapter booth is being unloaded right now. The will sell buttons made by Angelwood to help off set costs.
Someone rented the Community Center for our use so there is access to AC. However, they also have 10 tents set up. And there is a Moonwalk for the kiddos.
To top everything else there is BBQ on the grill! Basil is the official taster and says it is great!
That is all the news I have at the moment. It is hard to get a cell phone connection to Crawford but when I hear more I will try to update everyone.
BOUT TIME!!!
Kelly reports reporters getting roughed up. I'm deeply saddened...
I just missed it, had it mutted...... please let me know what fox showed in the way of video/pics!!!!
That's not Brit's e-mail address, it's his program address. I doubt very much that he reads those. He has staff to do that.
His personal address is:
brit.hume@foxnews.com
Stick with the troops!
not with the kooks
My only point is that we can't really say its been ignored yet, we must wait for the post event coverage, they are not roaming around with live feeds interviewing people, I would love it but it's just not gonna happen.
Greg was walking on egg shells. He told both sides of funding, etc. What was interesting was that he said Fox would be covering this for the REST OF THE AFTERNOON!! I think the emails and calls were heard.
Bah, gave up on Fox and was watching CNN, and missed the Alert.
I didn't see it that way. He started out saying earnest showing. Only showed her in the beginning and the rest was about us.
ROFLMAO!
Suggestion--now email FOX and tell them THANKS for at least starting to cover it, and ask them to interview some of the counter-protesters. Maybe they're listening--they said they'd have continuing coverage the rest of the day.
ROFL!
Greg Kelly just on Fox, reporting on our guys! That flag is gorgeous, Lots of shots.
Read one of our signs "Stick with the troops, not the kooks!" Says Fox will stay with it!
Thanks, Greg!!!
LOL...we got FoxNews attention...LOL...Greg Kelley has finally reported it...all our emails worked...
ROFLMAO!
Says reporters being roughed up by locals.
Here's something from FOX
Well the reporterette made an effort which coming from the local liberal rag is something in itself.
But you are correct that is incorrect regarding the group name that is going to get the crosses removed.
