~Call to Prayer~ Heavenly Father, The hour has come and we are now at war. Our nation has looked to You during every war of the past, and You have never failed us. We lift our eyes to You now. We ask that Your mighty armies would surround every one of our troops so that no weapon formed against them will prosper. Father, hold up our President with Your mighty arms. Be his strength, his shield, his strong tower, that he may provide the kind of godly leadership so desperately needed by this nation. We commit all this to...

Walk, drive, take BART to take a stand in support of the President of the U.S., our troops and our actions in Iraq. When: Thursday, 3/20, 12 Noon (try to arrive by 11:45) Where: San Francisco's Civic Center Plaza by City Hall, Van Ness (look for other "Common Sense Activists" at BACK of anti-war protest) I've confirmed on the Intl' ANSWER site that the "blame America, hate Bush" crowd will be gathering at this location at noon Thursday, inevitably followed by a horde of media cameras. We won't be able to match them in numbers, but the collective IQs, big...

I will keep posting as a reminder. Please bring an American Flag, Armed Forces Flag or sign to help show Support for our Troops. Meet at the Worthington Green (Worthington OH, corner of 161 and High Street, Saturday March 22 at noon) Look for the Support our Troops signs as there will be many anti war, anti troop protesters there as well. It's time now more than ever to show our Support for Our Troops. The final hours are upon us. Thanks for all your support! GOD BLESS THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE UNITED STATES MILITARY.

I just wanted to help spread the word about these rally, yard signs and bumper stickers. I sent a post to find out how I can get some of these signs. Just like the American Flag (finally) started to pop up all over after 9/11. I'd like to see how many of these signs will pop up in yards and on the bumpers of cars all over the country. Good luck to all the Support Our Troop rallies taking place.

Just got back from the Support Our Troops Rally in Milwaukee. LouD started us off with an inspirational speech (could you post a link or repost it here?). Charlie Sykes, Jeff Wagner, and Scott Walker made speeches and a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient was recognized.The wind howled and the snow began to fall, but spirits were high and attendance was outstanding.

Over There Johnnie, get your gun, Get your gun, get your gun, Take it on the run, On the run, on the run. Hear them calling, you and me, Every son of liberty. Hurry right away, No delay, no delay, Make your daddy glad To have had such a lad. Tell your sweetheart not pine, To be proud her boy's in line. Chorus Over there, over there, Send the word, send the word over there-- That the Yanks are coming, The Yanks are coming, The drums rum-tumming Ev'rywhere. So prepare, say a pray'r, Send the word, send the word to...

Please excuse me if I make an error...this is my first post here. I'm ecstatic to have found y'all. The coverage of the protests got me so mad that I've spent the last two weeks trying to find websites of like-minded folks... I had some trouble at the get go, so wound up making my own -- http://www.geocities.com/regime_change_in_iraq I'll look forward to reading further through the site, and watching the news links. Thanks, all!

going to be on soon

Who would have thought that conservatives, much less conservative activists, could inhabit the land of Osama-in-Seattle Murray and Jim McDermRAT? But this is the happy truth in Washington. And these once-quiet voices are now out in the streets every Saturday standing up for their Commander-in-Chief, supporting troops with flags flying, and being wowed in turn by thousands of other previously quiet patriots who wave wildly and play their horns like energetic marching bands.

Where is he when we need him? President Clinton's statement TEXT OF THE PRESIDENT'S BRIEFING ON IRAQI AIRSTRIKES.Editor's note: The United States and Britain Wednesday launched "strong, sustained" airstrikes against Bagdhad. The attack comes one day after U.N. weapons inspectors released a stinging report accusing the Iraqis of refusal to cooperate with disarmament efforts and a month after Saddam Hussein's last standoff with the United Nations. Good evening. Earlier today, I ordered America's armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces. Their mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons...

MADISON, Wis. -- After getting a phone call from her 20-year-old son who is stationed in the Middle East, a local mom began collecting chapstick, lotion and batteries to send to soldiers.Zack, an Army specialist with the 3rd infantry, told his mom that soldiers desperately need lip balm and lotion for dry skin, reported News 3's Toni Morrissey.

OPERATION INFINITE FREEP opened a new front tonight in Louisville, KY!! My thanks to bluesagewoman, Trteamer and all the honored FReepers out there who gave me great ideas and advice for tracking down the website of our local peace wackos. Their http://www.louisvillepeace.org site gave me all the intel I needed to get us organized. They conducted a rather quiet candlelight vigil/war protest in front of U.S. Rep. Anne Northup's house. I met up with a fine young man from Bellarmine University who is the President of the campus Republicans and we got our FReep on. Thanks to the Colorado FReepers...
