Congratulations! Excellent job in Spokane! I'm really proud of you and "my" town - I lived there happily for 14 years. (Would have preferred to work more though, lol) Appreciate your rally report :)

I just saw the reports on our local CBS & NBC. CBS looked like not to many showed up, but NBC showed the crowd. I was too dizzy and weak today and had some double vision, so I was unable to come, much to my disappointment. Hopefull I can get to the one one the 22nd.
You did a great job, and I was very proud of you and Proud to be an American!

I forgot to mention. Both channel 2 and channel 6 had the rally in the first 10 minutes of their 6-o'clock broadcast. They both gave a respectable amount of time to us. I haven't seen channel 4's coverage yet, but I expect to see some since I know I saw their camera there. That and the fact we were across the street from the channel 4 building!
The next rally will definitely have to be on Division St if at all possible. With this many people showing on literally just a few day's notice, the next rally is going to be huge!

Congratulations on a job well done. Wish us luck tomorrow for the rally in Missoula, Montana. Signs are almost done, flags are ready. Wahoo...

God Bless ALL of you.. Keep up the good work!!
My sister and her husband drove to Seattle recently, and they said there were hundreds of people on overpasses PRO AMERICAN!!! They shouted out their windows and tooted their horn. They were so happy to see all the PRO AMERICAN SUPPORTERS out in force.
We will spread the word, since the media won't!!
PS. I bet you had a TON of honks in support just like in Seattle!!

I was glad to represent the few sensible Canadians from the Great Yellow North, and proudly pledged allegiance to Old Glory. Spent the rest of the afternoon with Freeper Born On The Storm King at the local VFW. Had a great time, thanks everyone!
To: Mr. Blond
I should also mention, the response from passing traffic was great, just imagine if we could get them out of their cars the next time to join us!
