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!
You are fast! We just watched it. So sad that they ran out of money and had to turn off their phone.....
I understand your objection. My motive for a single monument to him is due to the desecration of his memory and his service by his own mother. It is not every soldier who's own mother figuratively spits on their son's grave. A son that died for freedom. The same freedom that allows his mother this lunacy. Hope you understand where I am coming from. I was not trying to disrespect our other heroes nor a monument to them.
Cindy IN Crawford:
I've gone out to the forum a couple of times today and they're hitting hard and fast.
That's OK. We're faster. Ha!
you all are so kind...unlike the folk I encountered on my way back to Dallas from Crawford. They had the "Meet Cindy" signs in their windows and kept cutting me off and gesturing. After passing the "Peace House", I couldn't help but notice how these folks had very nasty and foul appearances let alone the attitudes. When you are nasty on the inside it can't help but cloud around you.
Reminds me of the idiots near Livermore California who raided a chicken farm in the middle of the night fifteen or more years ago and "liberated" about five hundred chickens. Birds that had been living in relative comfort who promptly died horrible deaths on the freeway adjacent to the farm...or were eaten by local cats and dogs.
What a bunch of numbskulls!
Our FReep struck a nerve with the smelly trolls. It always does.
freeperkiki, super photos! Welcome to FR!
Basil, and all that were able to attend....you did us proud. Thank you, one of these days I'm going to be able to make it in person, but I'm forever standing with you in spirit.
Bookmarking this wonderful letter...
KEYE just finished their hit piece...
Actually, it's as close as I ever got, too.
I was baptized by fire myself. I actually enjoyed it, hence, I stayed.
Thank you, and all the others who attended and/or posted today!
I hope President Bush and company, and the troops, and... enjoy the support and pictures as much as I did today.
I also pray for strong follow-up to not let the momentum die!
LOL---Why am I NOT surprised that you are the one to post those two pics together...you quack me up!
Until they got 54k to pay off the mortgage.
Nice screen shot from Fox News. Now aren't you glad you wore the clean shirt today?! ;-)
The Peace House? LOL! Maybe Cindy can help them out a bit financially, seeing as she's currently using her son's life insurance $$ to fund this little field trip, and that moonbats all over the nation have been sending her money. Who was the senator who sent her $500? I forgot, and am too lazy to wade through this entire thread to find the exact post.
"But that is how we are supposed to do things in America giggle giggle" LOL!
