I support VICTORY in the war against Islamofascism, and I'm disgusted by the increasing efforts by Democrats to destroy the war effort.
This Saturday, April 7, 2007, there will be a rally outside the main gate of Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, CO, to support our troops. Fort Carson's troops have been rotating in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan since the beginning of the war, so this is a good place to let them know how much we appreciate them.
I've had three professional-quality banners made that read, respectively, "Honk If You Support Victory", "God Bless Our Troops", and "FreeRepublic.com Supports Our Troops". I'll also have American flags available.
The rally will be held from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Come for as long or short a time as you like, and help hold one of the banners or wave a flag! Even better, bring your own banner or sign and hold it high. You'll be delighted by the appreciation and gratitude of the troops, their families, and passers-by.
Ruin a Liberal's day--come out and rally for VICTORY!
If you're not sure where the main gate of Fort Carson is, please freepmail me.
Please keep me informed. I'll try to be there, if possible.
I live in Springs but I'll be away on a business trip that day. Darn.. I'd love to swing by and support our guys in war.
Excellent, Columbine! I look forward to meeting you.
That is too bad, but thanks for the thought, airplaneguy. I plan to do this again, so I'll ping you on the next one.
Speaking of Eagles, you need to post this on the Gathering of Eagles web site.
Real Good to be “just” Supporting the Troops and not countering the moonbats.

Oh! How do I do that?

I have not mastered the details of using GoE bolding, linking, etc. so you'll be on your own at this point. Unlike FR, I do know that your can edit your own post. Scroll down to bottom and check out options at bottom right of screen.
We use 'trooprally' on GoE also. See you there.
Also, Good Luck.

You GO GIRL...(Prayer for the TROOPS
Okay, I’ll try it tonight. Thanks!
I’ve mentioned to a few of the soldiers and Marines here (all of whom have fought in the war) that we’re doing this rally, and they are surprised, touched, and grateful. It shames me that they’re surprised—these rallies should be held at every base every weekend as far as I’m concerned.
I sent a link to this thread to 850am KOA talk show hosts Gunny Bob Newman, Mike Rosen and Jon Caldara with a request that they mention this on the air.
Excellent!
Eagles up!
But hey, maybe my perspective is wrong, and I'll know how to deal with The Bad People if they show up.
And if we do get a good turnout, and I therefore organize another rally in a month or two, which is my intention, I'll certainly ask you about publicity!
Bump!
Got get ‘em! Show that Ft. Carson won’t sit quietly by as the enemies of our country spew their filth! I will be with you in spirit from Los Angeles! Best wishes!
WalMart is a great source for flags. They have a pack with two nice size flags on long sticks for only $1.84 here in Los Angeles.
