Just checking back in again after posting this thread. I just want to thank a few people...

Thanks for all the nice comments from supporters across the country...

Thanks comwatch for really getting the ball rolling with the media outreach and general organizing. You are truly a force of nature and we were lucky to have you and the other Sacto folks helping us out! Also, thanks for posting the great photos! I may have some to add to the collection within a couple of days.

Thanks to flagbrigade and friends for bringing along the beautiful flags and banners! We held up "GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS" and "NO PEACE FOR TERRORISTS" with pride, plus they made a good barrier between us and the stinky peaceniks!

Thanks to the SFPD for being our bodyguards! I plan on calling to thank them and I encourage any and all to do the same.

Thanks to the hosts of KSFO and KFBK (David Gold, Mark Williams, Barbara Simpson, Melanie Morgan, Brian Wilson, and more) who helped us get the word out! When we work together, we all benefit.

And of course, thanks to all the FReepers and folks who helped make this counter-protest the biggest one yet! Hope to see you all next time...

THANK YOU so much for all you did to help us stand up to the Uninformed Hordes on Sunday in SF!

After all the interviews we did, including extensive talks with at least one Chronicle reporter, I was disappointed to log on to the Chronicle today and discover that there was only ONE counter-protestor -- a "lone hawk in camoflage." I'm glad I complained to the reporters how they've silenced us for so long, and we are 50%+ of the populace -- that's why the mainstream press is losing ground to the Internet and talk radio. Well, they didn't hear us... they are still up to their tricks of trying to ignore our voices. I must admit, it's very hard to stay positive... Maybe we should do a 'post-mortem' to fine-tune before next time.

But being with you all yesterday was a pleasure and a privilege!

BTW, Dave/comwatch, that's me talking to David Gold in your photo! Thanks for including me! -Jerez/Cheryl
