She saw our rally reported on CNN? Excellent. Are you exhausted ....if not you should be. Totally fantastic job!

[mykdsmom]

I am exhausted, I finally got 8 hours of sleep last night for the first time in almost 2-3 weeks. Last week was really bad, I think I averaged 4 hours per night with one night only getting 2.

Speaking of which, I'm on my way to bed....night all.

I didn't go.

Then again, I don't think it was in Charlotte.

[Overtaxed]

Good Morning!

They mentioned our rally on the morning show WPTF this morning.

[Overtaxed]

Jerks! There were more than 150 to 200 there!

[Constitution Day]

Good morning!

My daughter lives in MI and she saw us on CNN this am.

WOW! How cool.
I never would have known that if you hadn't mentioned it... since I STILL don't watch CNN. :)

[Constitution Day]

There's a name left off of the "Freepers in attendance" list:

2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten.

I saw him in the crowd, and spoke briefly, but he didn't join us at Tir na Nog.
THANKS for coming, 2 Kool!

They mentioned our rally on the morning show WPTF this morning.

Really??
I listened for a few minutes this morning but didn't hear that.

What did they say?

[Constitution Day]

Then again, I don't think it was in Charlotte.

If you keep this up, you will become our official Charlotte emissary...
... whether you want the job or not! :)

[Overtaxed]

What did they say?

Um...that we had one with speakers and all....they didn't name the speakers, though. Mostly they talked about the veterans there and how we were showing support for our troops unlike what happened with Vietnam.

[Constitution Day]

WOW we got 2 whole paragraphs in the N&O...they had more to say about the Chapel Hill Rally which is fine but no quotes from any of the speakers or participants in Raleigh???

Re: the N&O article-

That is the reporter that called me on my cell later Sat. afternoon.
His only question was about the Chapel Hill rally (whether we also organized that one).

I tried to give him further info, but he was obviously in a hurry to get off the phone.
GRRRR!

[Constitution Day]

That's good enough for me, OT. Thanks.

[Constitution Day]

It was a well-done rally.
I was there with my brother and his family and it was very good to see the size of this turnout based on the amount of time you had to put it together.

Hello Bismark!

Thanks so much for your kind words.
I'm sorry I did not get to meet you. THANKS for coming!

Yes, I was EXTREMELY pleased with the turnout and everyone's enthusiastic response.
We are plannning to get some of these photos to the troops as soon as we can.

FRegards,

I'm glad you could join us. We were very pleased with the turnout too!
I hope you'll join us again before you leave NC.

ShaunNC & family were rpesent and accounted for. Great job to everyone. Special thanks to the young lady who sang with such power! WOW!

[Constitution Day]

I'll let you know if Jerry Agar mentions it on his show this afternoon.

I got a chance to speak with him briefly and at one point I said "See...we Freepers are not a bunch of kooks!

To which he said, "I don't think you're kooks. You're just... enthusiastic!

LOL!!!
