Great time at the rally today! We began around 4:00 pm and had people jumping out of their cars and grabbing signs and American Flags. What a great freep! We had approximately 65 people on our side of the "aisle" compared to about 10 "peacenicks". Thanks goes out to David Chu (freeper) and his wonderful "LIBERATE IRAQ AND SUPPORT OUR TROOPS" signage,American flags,and photography,the Republican Womens Club of Santa Rosa were in force,many business people just getting off work in the downtown area joined us, and other patriotic Americans. People were honking in support of America and our troops and it was exciting to see the silent majority jump in and participate, and more to come next Friday. In addition, we had TV 50 the local news station! If it can happen in "lalaland" it can happen anywhere!!!

    Personal note: I was apprehensive about protesting in my own town, even though I have a nephew and cousin in the Marines, but you have to EXPAND YOUR COMFORT ZONE and more will join. Remember "if you build it, they will come!" We shall not be the silent majority any longer!

    We saw a large number of people giving us the thumbs up, and some were giving us the "peace" sign, otherwise known to us as the "VICTORY" sign, a few gave us the one finger peace sign, and we were even "MOONED" by one loyal lefty!

    It's good to know that God still has a few in the leftward land who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

    Good for you. You're right. If you get a turnout there, you can get one anywhere.
To: cali5
    It is really important that we Freep in the Blue states. They are the only ones that the 'media' recognize. Way to go! You will make all your silent supporters feel like speaking out themselves, by seeing your actions. 
Americans really do not want the voice of dissent to be the voice that speaks for all of us.

    BUMP for a job well done! That's great that it went so well. Maybe some of us SF folks can join you one of these Fridays?
