The first word my grandson (now 10) learned was "Bush." I know this because he saw the name on TV and said "Grandma, that's the same as on your signs!" This was in 2000, when we were fighting to get him elected.

This grandson went on to write an essay for the school paper in 2004 saying why George Bush should be elected. I was one proud grandmother!

Keep notes and start compiling a record of these times for your yet-to-be-born grandkids. It is important, because leftist historians will try to undermine the President's record.

Thank you. Sorry you have to put up with low-life disruptors...

Thank you :)

FR is blessed with an abundance of good decent people. Compared to them, a troll is insignificant.

Since I was a math major I was able (with the help of a calulator) to determine that your grandson was 4 when he noticed that the name on TV and on your sign were the same.

Pretty dang smart, I'd say.

Some of you remember that years ago we had tried to see “W” in Indianapolis. Too many tickets were issued and the people in the twenty plus buses that Mike Sodrel brought with him, were unable to get in. After the event, Mike got on each bus, apologized and promised he would bring our president to southern Indiana. He a man of his word.

It was a WONDERFUL day with my dad. I owe him so much. He got me involved in politic at an early age. Attended state conventions, pulled the lever for him in the voting booth, shared reading materials……...Raised a good conservative daughter.

We started early this morning, driving through the beautiful Hoosier countryside. I commented to him how surprised and proud I was to see SODREL sign in my neighbor’s yards. Many of the farmers in this area have been democrats for generations. But obviously Mike/W have gotten through to them with the death tax issue.

We arrive just before 10, the doors were to open then. There was already a long line out front waiting to get in. Young, old, truck drivers, farmer, people in three piece suits, blue jeans, etc. We didn’t see ANY of the disruptors that were reported on the Louisville TV stations. Just GOOD folks.

Although we had tickets that would have gotten us closer to the stage, we would have had to stand up the entire time. Therefore, we chose to sit in the bleachers. Were originally in the front row, next to a lady pictured on the thread, but moved up a row and down a bit so dad could see better. A gentleman dad’s age (also an Army Air Corp Vet) Sat in front of us. They had a lot in common.

The crowd was pumped. We had our own flags, but flags and pom-pom were distributed. There were several speeches given by state candidates. Indiana is finally back in the black and on the RIGHT track fiscally. SSP sung, and prayers offered.

Finally we saw the caravan, pass by the outside door. “W” was in the building. One of Sodrels grand=daughters sang “God Bless America” For a little girl, she had a fantastic BIG voice . The other led the pledge and recited a poem about 10 steps to success. Would like to have a copy of that…

Then Mike came out from behind the curtain. His work shirt sleeve rolled up. He immediately introduced our President. ROAR! You all can read the transcript. It was a great speech. What you can’t hear is the crowds reaction to his comments. With almost every phrase the audience answered as if it was an ol’ time church tent rally. Lots of uhuu and yes, and other things you’d hear the congregation utter in response to reaffirmation. Once a fellow in the back yelled out very loudly “AMEN“! W swallowed as if to not laugh. There was a lot of cheering etc. too.

People were so kind and considerate of each other. Gentlemen assisted dad up and down steps and to our car after the event. We met a couple at a restaurant after the event. She pretty well summed it up. We greeted each other like long lost friends when we saw each others sticker from the event. “Wasn’t it wonderful! All the joy! All the wonderful, nice people! It’s just as I imagine Heaven will be!”


Dad listen intently to every word!


The crowd goes crazy!

I’ll add more pictures later…..It’s taking forever to upload them to shutter fly.
