Oh, it was the perfect "place and time" alright: some folks just need to learn to think and read before they act.

Now, quit slobbering justifications about what happened (there are none), and let us all move on. This effort is about bringing focus to Sheehan's idiotic crusade and showing support for our troops at the same time, not assuaging "eastforkers" tender sensibilities over one remote, isolated misunderstanding.

THANK YOU!

Thanks to all who attended and voiced their support for our troops.  And thanks to all who couldn't be there but still care and do what they can.  Let our message ring loud and true throughout the world:

"Freedom is everyone's right - and everyone's responsibility!"

And most of all:

THANK YOU FOR SERVING TO ALL  PAST AND PRESENT MEMBERS OF OUR ARMED FORCES!

You got that right. There's never a good time to assault anyone for any reason. Just let the signs do the talking. Kind of what happened. Almost.

Was I snide to you?

Actually, I have a fairly extensive repertoire, of which snide has at no time been more than 50%. Some freepers bring it out more than others. I am a just poster.

"also let them know how we feel about them not covering the event today"

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe the MSM had the nerve to NOT cover this. What a bunch of useless, worthless, PROPAGANDISTS! Even FOX is not balancing it's coverage. It's 90% Cindy, to 10 % of the Support the Troops rally (not the "Anti-Cindy demonstration" ) . I am livid. That is not fair, and it's rotten considering that the all-Cindy reporting even showed up on Al Jeezera.

It would be nice to have both sides given equal coverage. It would be nice if our troops could see that they do have support from Americans. It would be nice if the Islamofacist's could know that our troops, and their mission, are supported by American citizens. It would be nice, but, it's too much to ask of our propagandists-for-the-DNC fake press.

That being said: What an awesome display! I'm so thankful to everyone who went to Crawford. The pictures are great! Even though the MSM has its fingers stuck in its ears, and its eyes shut tight, trying to ignore this- Our troops will see what you guys did. It will be so good for them to know that not everyone buys into MSM and leftist BS.

What a great idea to counter Cindy and the hate-America crowd. WHOOOOHOOOO- Well done.

Have you all been following this?

Good stuff!

You can bet I am! LOL!
Been gone most of the afternoon and evening and am attempting to read the whole thread before conking out. GREAT STUFF!!

It's killin' me that we couldn't go to Crawford. But I've done my small part to counter Sindy and her cronies by hammering the news outlets the past few weeks. Thanks to FR and the investigative talents of many FReepers, I've had a LOT of "ammo" to hammer them with.
And like others have done, I've sent this link to my military email pals overseas so they'll know what's really been going on in Crawford this weekend.

Kudos to all who attended these rallies. Absolutely awesome!
And thank you, Jim, for FR! Some of the best minds around the world gather at this forum, and FReepers make it happen time and time again when it really counts.

Now to check out the rest of the thread for more reports and PIX! LOL!

Voted. :-)
Looks like the DUmmies may have found the poll, though. grrrrrrr! Our side was in the lead earlier but the dark side has squeaked ahead just a little. It's still close.

The anti-war protesters 47%
The Bush supporters 46%
Neither 7%
Total Votes: 95,453
