I just want to give a huge shout out and a big thank you to all of you
here at DU!

Thanks for all you've done in helping get out the word of the Vets for Peace National Convention and today's event in Crawford.

Thank you over and over from all of us.

We'll be putting up the pics tomorrow.

Once again, thank you all.

(you might not have been able to make it to Dallas or Crawford but all of you were damn sure here in spirit. You all kept me going the last few days as well as for everyone else.)

Thanks for the good work. I know it's hot in Texas right now. And we're keeping the heat on the administration.

2. Jim Hightower this evening absolutely rocked the house. I've seen him
many times and heard many of his speeches and read everything he writes.

He blew the lid off the tent tonight. IMVHO.

I saw 2 or 3 videoing the speech so I am certain it will be available soon.

I just can't wait to share it all.

Tomorrow is the end with a ceremony at 10:30am at the tower or in the tent at University of Dallas.

5. Thank you but we're just one very tiny cog in a very big wheel.
It is all of us together that get to make a difference. Hightower spoke of it tonight.

6. Looked good on CBS and ABC
Didn't see any NBC coverage (may have missed it watching the other two) but it looked awesome to see the national coverage Cindy got.

Kicking :kick:

13. As I've said many times, thanks, but we are small potatoes.
Edited on Sun Aug-07-05 04:24 AM by anarchy1999
I'm inspired by everyone I've been privileged to meet and to spend a moment or two with, including Cindy and oh so many others (no name dropping until I can get the pics up).

We all are going to see this through with Cindy and it is oh so wonderful to be able to count on DU'ers. Thank you 1000 times.

(there is even a "movie star" in one pic (just a hint, he was a recruiter in Michael Moore's F 9/11 film), plus oh so many others. It's hard to stay quiet.

Vets, Whistle Blowers, IVAW. You all are going to love it.

19. The echo machine does work
and we're figuring out how to use it. From recommendations on Yahoo! and cross-posting to/from blogs to all the e-mails & phone calls generated from DU we're getting the MSM's attention. We just need to keep it up.

Thank you for all that people like you and Cindy have done to help keep us informed. Keep up. America will hear us.
