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!
WOW! Great to hear she is back into reality. What college brainwashed her?
BTTT
FNC LIVE UPDATE COMING UP!!
"If you're saying you disapprove of these "Support the Troops" rallies, then we disagree there. The anti-war nuts get free publicity with or without our presence. But our troops and their families like to see us standing up to those America haters."
What I'm saying why are we "following them"
instead of being there and elsewhere 1st.
Live report coming in on Fox in just a couple of minutes on the counter protest.
Fox news is going to have this story about this right after the break -- that Page woman just announced it.
The name of the college is really important.

Thank you!
I'm out looking for news stories on the net.
VallerieUSA will be heading back to Austin with a bunch of photos and should have those posted by around 5 PM. CNTTXAN indicates between one hundred and one hundred and fifty p[atriotic, flag waving supporters of our troops now there. I could hear Dr. Raul talking in the background as CntTxan gave his report. Go RAUL! CNTTXAN indicates that vehicles are backed up on the main road in fornt of the rally. Lots of drive by support too.
Everything is going very well, very smooth, very well behaved. Have had a few taunts from anti-protestors, but they are being ignored. They are letting their numbers, their enthusiasm, their flags and the speakers do the talking for them.
Again, let's all make sure we give these guys our full support. BUMP the thread often. Post comments and pictures you may find.
God bless these guys for their support of our troops today.
Next update at 2:00 PM
