Move America Forward will be conducting the “You Don’t Speak for Me, Cindy” caravan beginning next week. It will feature military family members who have loved ones serving in the war against terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan. The delegation will be led by Deborah Johns of Marine Moms. (Her son has served in Operation Iraqi Freedom).
Main caravan leaves from San Francisco, California on Monday, August 22nd. Other caravans will depart from around the country. If you want to be part of a caravan, email us with your name and location you will depart from and we will include in our caravan coverage so people in your area can depart with you.
Everyone arrives in Crawford, Texas for a giant “We Support Our Troops AND Their Mission” Rally on Saturday, August 27, 2005.
If you have a loved one serving in Iraq or Afghanistan and would like to join the caravan please contact Move America Forward’s Robert Dixon: Robert@MoveAmericaForward.org
""I just saw that on the local news here in Phoenix. They talked to a women who decided to join the caravan. I wish I could go.""
Glad to hear it was also covered on the local news. It's about time we're hearing how most Americans feel, instead of the biased Cindy coverage. The left doesn't need to spend money on media ads - they get constant free coverage from NBC, CBS, FOX, ABC and etc.
I'd love to go to Crawford too~~!!!
"It was awesome, there was about 400-500 people there and about 12 protesting us. KFYI is reporting about 24 but that is not true. "
I listened to the program on the radio. They mentioned all the flags on the air. All the loud cheering was great~~!!!! I enjoyed Deborah's speech as well.
Welcome to FreeRepublic. You'll love it here.
They felt sorry for them so they doubled their numbers.

D'oh!!! Sorry for the double post.
I just watched all the local 10:00PM news here in Phoenix to see how they covered the rally. ABC showed more on the 12 protesters for Cindy than they did on the "You Don't Speak For Me, Cindy!" rally. Go figure. That really upsets me but that is why we don't watch ABC news.
I heard that there are a bunch of truck drivers waiting in Albuquerque to join the caravan. It will be interesting.
Wow! This story is So off the radar.
I am just heartsick that i can not join this group in Waco this Saturday....I have to go to a family 'gathering' in Mississippi friday. My heart is sick. I want Texas and the rest of the sane USA to show our numbers...and how our numbers dwarf the liberal left in this country. PLEASE..send someone in my place this weekend to Crawford Texas. I was alive in the Vietnam era....and i watched our press and 'hippies' ruin our chance for victory..in fact i would say they killed my best friend.
GO to Crawford this weekend in NUMBERS..let's show the world how little ground the terrorists have truly gained in this country!
It is the Cindy Sheehan's of this world that give the terrorists ground. Sorry folks ..but it occurred to me....a parallel..between 'Cindy' and the terrorist.... the left sends "Cindy' out to do 'battle'....and the terorrists send the mentally retarded out to blow themselves up for Allah!! No apologies.....
They seemed to be very upset about Bush lying which if true, you would think they would love the President since lying was not a big deal with the former one. "I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky" He said in a firm voice as he shook his finger at the American people. It still cracks me up. I guess it would depend on the definition of sex or was it "is"? Not sure, the entire eight years seem to be one big fabrication.
I was also confused to their anti-war stand and how our troops need to be brought home. I wondered why they did not come out during Kosovo, Bosnia, Africa, Haita. Oh dear, can't remember them all, it just seem like the former one was sending our brave men and women all over the world during his rein.
I gleamed the following from this group of misguided poor souls: Death to the innocent unborn; Death to the innocent civilians whether by beheading, incinerated, or blown to pieces. Praise be the tyrants, dictators and despots that murder their innocent masses. Women are above men (those young women in pink are a perfect example) with the exception of those women from Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Africa, Pakistan. How dare these women think they have a right to be educated, to be able to vote, and not be subservient to their male owners. Dont they know the progressive liberal women know what is in their best interest? Man, talk about biting the hand that is trying to keep you in your place.
See the confusion now. How do they ever keep it all straight in their minds? It is one contradiction to another. I guess they can only handle one agenda at a time. Thank God the sixties are so last century and the adults are in charge in this century.
Was able to meet a fellow freeper, "Hi Minnesota" but was disappointed that the caravan did not make it to the rally.
Bump
INCLUDING BRAVE SOLDIER'S BRAVE MOM!!
Thanks .
BTTT!!!!!!!
