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!
Congratulations on the role that each of you played today. Reviewing the thread this evening, the quality of your character stands in marked contrast to those on the other side. The photographs show well-adjusted, happy and hard-working people who would happily take the time from their schedules to make a small but important gesture for their country. For many of you this is mission and ministry, of sorts, and that also shows.
Your actions today make our country proud. You showed the respect, dignity and reverence that are so much a part of the American character. You touched many people, and planted more seeds than you will ever know about.
Eagles up!
March of the Penguins!
What did you think of the movie? Its playing up the
street from me. I don't see but a few movies a yr.

stuff.

Ditto.
A prolonged stay at Club Gitmo with their buds? :)

Welcome to Free Republic...thanks for freeping!
"But what’s a million times worse than a mother who has gone nuts with grief is the whole political movement that’s congealing around her like she’s the patron saint of crazy and they all want to be pilgrims."
Bears repeating over and over
Good point about Weldon not resting in August!
I like my COngressman a whole lot, he's a great guy. But Weldon sure is the one I'd want if I didn't have him and could choose.
Great group of bikers, Val! Thanks for sharing that! And lookey there--Miss Liberty! I salute the ones who were there in Crawford....that includes you, Val!
Huh! Go feeger! They haven't locked gunner up yet?
Wow! :)
Well I'm heading to bed now, but may I ask you to ping me if someone answers and the response comes to you? I can definitely attend in two weeks; possibly next Saturday, as well.
Well, g'night. I am so proud to be a member of the FReeper family!!
LOL---You saw the picture with the three Crawford Police...
they were probably there searching for ole humblegunner!
Good night, getmeoutta! Sleep well, and thanks for supporting our troops!!!!!!
Valerie, if you hear of another FReep, can you post it and ping getmeoutta??
I keep insisting to all you Freepers out there. In addition to events, we need to put the pressure on our Congressmen and women. You know the ones that will listen (not MA or NY)
Okay, here come the tears! Darn! God rest their souls!
Mebbe gunner is locked up --- that's about the only acceptable excuse for not attending today....
Good night...Fl...
I have a feeling that if Cindy is gonna stay, then there will be freepers down there, also.
AAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhh.......NOW I got it. Thanks for the tip.
did they find him?
