Well, I didn't see the same CNN piece but saw one earlier.
My biggest gripe with ALL the press coverage is: GET OFF THE HORSES PICS!!! That doesn't come close to representing our side!!
Who are these producers???? Why didn't they show the 80 year old WWII vet.
Or the moms, dads, wives and children that were there to support the troops!
Geeese! I'm getting worked up about this and still not satisfied with FOX's coverage.
Slowly, slowly catchee monkey. That's the first coverage we've had and Cindy's been hogging the airspace for three weeks. We'll do better. She's leaving on Wednesday. Can't be soon enough for me. She's so damned smug (greiving? not bloodly likely) and I've the urge to smack her face but...we're all just frustrated. There ARE more of us than of them, the election proved that and that was only the ones who voted...so be of good cheer. It's just as someone said...when the left protests...the right works to keep the country moving. The left collects welfare...the right punch in at work so the left just has a natural advantage in the protesting game. But we'll get better!
Your post made me think of something...
My son and I drove in from Crawford from the south on 317 .. On the very edge of Crawford we saw a fellow on the side of the road with his pick up truck and 3 or 4 flags... and signs saying Support the Troops and Support the President (or something to that effect). As we approached I thought it was Leapfrog - because there was a Marine flag. As we drove by it was an elderly fellow... with his oxygen tank... just waving at people as they drove by.
I was continually amazed at the cross section of people at the rally ... average Americans really... it was heartwarming .. and truly made me proud that we are speaking up!
I really think we need to keep it up - letting people know we are NOT the SILENT majority this time!
Yes the horses had the "cute value" for the press but the real story as you say are the WWII vetrans and young people with children.
