Hello! I'm going to have the photos done later today. Freepers Up, if you have the time, maybe you can help me later? It may be a little while, because I have to uncover my car from the 2inches of ice we got last night.
There was an article in the Grand Rapids Press this morning, that put the crowd at 900. Maybe someone with a faster computer can post a link? I'll be back later with photos....

Porter is there but not Sherman...this was in Lincoln's visit right before the fall of Richmond as they are thinking of how to handle the surrender of Lee's army.

I have the painting, but don't know how to post the photo.

Ooops...Sherman is there, but he's 3/4 away from frontal. sorry.

Freepersup is available for image posting duties and will be happy to do it. I haven't read the article fully yet, but I know that if Karl Rove came to town, Michigan's electoral votes are in his sights. Illinois's electoral votes are prized as well. FWIW- Karl Rove was a strategist for US Senator Peter G. Fitzgerald's successful Senate campaign which resulted in the defeat of one of the most liberal US Senators in America: Carol Mosely Braun.

Thank you Tomas, for an insightful and entertaining report on the Wizard of Washington. I mean the other Wizard, not Michael Jordan, but Karl Rove. See my post # 7 to photogirl about Karl Rove's 'touch'.

Our President has a knack for surrounding himself with high caliber people, and in turn these same people recognize the leadership qualities of President Bush. The old saw, birds of a feather flock together, rings true in sizing up the personnel performing the people's work, and the bottom line (results) is certainly bearing fruit.

While the Democrats have begun to campaign earnestly, President Bush decided to hold off on campaigning until the war was successfully prosecuted upon Iraq. This isn't to say that the preliminary work being conducted by the President's team is a violation of this pledge, as the work is suttle and is less effective than were it to be an all out race to the finish line.

FWIW- Around 50 local patriots met in Springfield, Illinois, for a Support Our Troops rally. Yours truly only had to drive a mere 30 miles to attend this rally.

Take care my friend- Semper Fi- All the way and then some-

re: post # 8- Around 50 local patriots

That was supposed to be 'around 500 local patriots' attended the rally.

Hello, the power has been out most of the day, but has just been turned back on. The photolab said my pics should be done by 9pm tonight. I'm on the slowest computer ever, so we'll see how it goes. :) Thank you again for your help, I think I owe you a couple of beers for all your work!! Let me know if you're ever up in G.R. again.

Wow excellent!

I was supposed to go to this and I had a Lansing Rally packet (pics etc.) all made up but I have had a very nasty barometric pressure induced headache for about 3 days and have been almost totally out of commission
Good Job!
