Me, my wife, and our 3 year old daughter went to this rally last night...it was a remarkable showing, considering our small size, and the fact that we were a Blue Gore state (for SOME reason).

*bump*

It may only take 50 minutes to drive the length of our entire state, but we got spirit! LOL

Lastly, the article doesn't mention it, but the turnout was a little over 400 strong!

"a Blue Gore state (for SOME reason)"

You don't by any chance have a large semi-legal immigrant population, do you?

Wow neat! - Thanks for going and being counted! - Did you snap any pics of the event?

Good old Cranston! My Mother and Father side are both from there. God Bless those wonderful Italians! They love America!

[Corin Stormhands]

Bravo!

Why yes we do!

It's called "Central Falls" (ri humor...lol)

I'll have some pictures up, but not until next week, unfortunately.

My digital camera pooped out on me last weekend, so I had to use standard 35mm film (How barbaric!). Additionally, my scanner is still at Lexmark being repaired...which, according to them, will take approximately 20-30 years. lol

...Sen. Jack Reed, who was joined by Representatives James Langevin and Patrick Kennedy...

Damned America hating commies, the three of them. Smart enough to see which way the wind blows, though, unlike the cheese eating puke, Chafee.

"Patches" Kennedy was there? Do he understand what it was all about, or did someone have to explain that the U.S. and Iraq are at war?

WTG IOTN! Where's your pics?

[SuziQ]

Great turnout!! Glad y'all were able to be there!

I couldn't believe it myself...there may be hope yet for Kennedy. Although I'm sure the only reason they were there was for the face time.

Chaffee was actually speaking at the Brown(shirts) University "peace" protest with all the other Bush-hating malcontents.

His wannabe Republican arse will most surely be voted out next election.

The paper's picture is a great one! - Imagine that kid looking at that old newspaper when he grows up! - You know his folks will keep it!
