The Marriott on N. Michigan Avenue?
Bump and Ping
There'll be more people on that bus than in mother sheehan's entire group(of 30) that "descended" on Washington.
How hard is it to figure out which view is most popular with American citizens?
PING to the Hoosiers - 'Support The Troops' Drill!
Yes, this is what I've been told.
Sending out the message to more FReepers from Indiana! PING ping PiNg.
My final PING for now for the great FReepers of Indiana..
Fellow Hoosiers..I'm leaving for DC today. You guys make me proud down on Monument Circle. Take lots of pictures!
Earthdweller--Our local TV station (WLFI channel 18, the CBS affiliate in Lafayette)--had a story about 30 moonbats from Purdue that will be headed to DC this weekend as well.
Please, please, please drown them out (or just drown them!) for me! I will be there in spirit as will many others of us.
I contacted the Indiana American Legion folks with the bus tour stop and rally info. Plus updated all the TV, radio and newspaper folks with the details of the Monument Circle location and time on Friday.
I wish I could be there.
We're preparing to ride out Rita, and pray that our home doesn't try to change to a different zip code while we're in it.
God bless our wonderful military and our president.
BUMP
Two of my former home cities! Wish I could be there. Go get 'em, y'all.
Thanks for passing along the info. to the local media, AJ. Hope to see you there tomorrow!! Mom and I will be out there once again.
bttt
I'm here in Colorado. I have contacted a number of other groups in the Indianapolis area since my last posting though. It would be great to get a few hundred folks at one of these bus tour stops. Maybe you can call into talk radio and mention the rally at Monument Circle tomorrow afternoon.
Yesterday there was some twit with a huge HONOR OUR TROOPS placard pacing back and forth in front of the State House. Underneath that part that got everyone's attention was the usual litany: BUSH CONDI CHENEY LIED etc.
I won't be able to attend the support gathering on Monument Circle tomorrow but you may want to check to see if this jerk moves from his State House stakeout to protest where you are instead.
I wanted to make a reversable sign of my own that had an arrow on each side and the comment <----THAT GUY IS AN IDIOT----> (or something of that nature) I'd excercise my right to free speech, pace right along with him and change sides on the sign appropriately. Too bad I had to work. :o)
Now is the time for all good men and women
to come to the aid of our country
and show support for our service men and women.
