I hope you're ready for the flood of new NC FReepers that will be signing up after this rally. I think we will be adding a significant number to our ranks thanks to the media publicity we got that mentioned the website multiple times.

I'd like to thank you Jim for providing us with a "home" where we can hang out with like minded conservatives. None of us would be here if it wasn't for your vision.

Today's article in the N & O. At least she got our numbers right.

Here is the itty bitty part that dealt with our group.

While the peace marchers gathered, about 40 protesters assembled for what they termed a patriotic rally in support of U.S. troops across Salisbury Street from the Capitol. Within an hour, the patriotic rally grew to about 100, and soon they were trading criticisms and chants with a knot of peace demonstrators: "Support our troops!" vs. "Bring them home!"

"These people, they're against war now, but if something goes wrong -- a chemical attack -- they'll blame the administration," said Stafford Patterson, 21, a junior at N.C. State who held a 10-foot-tall flag. He had friends across the street at the anti-war rally, he said, but they were just out to meet girls.

Go Stafford LOL!!!
