The Heart of Texas Chapter of FreeRepublic.com is holding a rally in Crawford, Texas today to show America's support for our troops, President Bush and the war on terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere around the world.
The rally will be held at noon at the Crawford Civic Center at 1000 4th Street.
Freepers are coming from near and far to join the H.O.T. Chapter in Crawford. If you live within four hours drive of Crawford, it's not too late to hit the road and get on down there.
Folks in attendance will be calling in to me, Brad's Gramma and Jeff Head with live updates from the scene. I am told that cellphone coverage in Crawford is spotty. However, it may have gotten better of late.
We'll see.
Hat's off to Basil, Doctor Raoul, The Sarce and 2ndAmendmentMama (and anyone else) who've been scrambling the past two days to make this happen. Good luck!
Hi!
Better you than me!
See ya!
See Ya!
Bye, troll.
She already got a chance to talk with the President. And she even got a kiss on the cheek, which makes me rather jealous.
Go crawl back under the rock from which you came.
Thanks, and good luck.
PS... You did the right thing by staying through Mass to receive the Eucharist.
That's what its all about.
God Bless +
If the President agreed to meet with Sheehan AGAIN, I'd bet in a matter of minutes he'd have a line of other anti-war people demanding to meet with him.
Of course, then, the pro-troops, pro-America side would want equal time and I would ask to meet with him. LOL.

Consoling a mother is never easy
Excerpt:
"George W.'s gift is his stubborn and determined persistence in not allowing sacrifices made in Afghanistan and Iraq to be squandered by those who have no stomach for the fight now that the fight is rougher than expected. Democracies wage war only with difficulty. Mackubin Thomas Owens, a Vietnam veteran and associate dean of the Naval War College, observes in National Review that the Athenians second-guessed every decision their leaders made in the Peloponnesian War; Lincoln had to contend with Radical Republicans who thought he was a bit of a weenie as the commander in chief.
"But neither the Athenians nor Lincoln had to contend with a smug, detached mainstream media," he writes, and " ... it is hard to conduct military operations when a chorus of eunuchs is describing every action we take as a violation of everything for which America stands, a quagmire in which we are doomed to failure, and a waste of American lives." Certain earlier presidents would agree."
Wake up and smell the fact that HE HAS ALREADY MET WITH HER!!!!! Do your homework, don't focus so much on the man himself, and smell the truth, and what is behind it.
On my way from Crawford to Waco, I pondered how much it must grate on the anti's to have to travel on George W. Bush Parkway, past Bush Drive, and Bush Industrial park. I hope the majority of them went that way. :)
That might be the site they mentioned. I didn't have time to write it down but I think soldier was in the title. I'm sure someone from the rally will verify.
Very true!! He'd be surprised as well. God Bless to you and yours as well.
One of the troop supporters out at the "triangle" had a very large picture of Casey with the word HERO under it. The Cindy crowd could not have missed it. I talked to him - he is a member of the Texas delegation to RNC.
Remind me to tell you of the doozie I talked with (a patient I worked with these past two weeks...). A very warm and nice lady, but sadly far to the left.
"Wake up and smell the lies."
Take a dose of realism salts. Then read THIS. If you dare.

You, my friend, are a TOOL. They are playing you. Do you understand that???
'lots of people living out the experience through FR'
Amen! Thank you, Jeff, for helping to bring this awesome Freep to those of us who couldn't get to Crawford. Freepers are just the best people!
