Whew! I've finally caught up on this thread...

I wanted to offer a huge "Thank You!!" to everyone who worked on making this rally happen, to everyone who traveled to attend this rally, and to everyone who kept the pings going on this thread and posted photos and live reports.

This rally was a huge success, regardless of the fact that the media has mostly poo-pooed or flat-out ignored the size and sentiment of the speakers and attendees.

I haven't heard from any of the rally "officials" as to the final head count, but I'll just use the 3,000 number...

Every one of those 3,000 people has family, friends and co-workers who they are going to share their photos and stories with. And those people will know that the MSM is not reporting responsibly. And those people will pass photos and stories around to their friends, etc. The MSMedia bypass will continue to grow - and the MSM will be left behind.

Standing in a ditch.

It was an epic event and we were honored to attend.

I have more pix to post and will do so when I get home,
I'm still sharing a laptop with Eaker and Flyer and TheMom
and it's cramping my (debatable) style.

And those people will know that the MSM is not reporting responsibly.

In Los Angeles, nbc4 reported that "hundreds" of "pro-war demonstrators" were in Crawford... ABC world news reported "over a thousand." The local Fox outlet nearly buried the story and you could have missed it if you blinked. All "reportage" that I saw showed haphazard clips of the patriotic rallyers without any narrative of who they were and why they were there, but emphasized "dueling demonstrations!" They all, including Fox, showed Cindy front and center -- plenty of air time, etc. So thoroughly disgusting.

There is no way that ANY MSM is going to show anything that might stir or affirm feelings of patriotism. Media is thoroughly anti-American.
