A funny thing today in Crawford.

[mourningdove92]

I forgot to mention it in my earlier post.

There was this guy in a Red Pick Up that drove back and forth, back and forth, continuously during the rally blasting Toby Keith music.

How funny!! My brother was with me. He is a former Bush supporter who eyes are opening. He was really offended at that guy. I took that as a good sign.


We saw the Red Truck guy on TV during the coverage of Cindy Sheehan. He hates us. Surprise, surprise.

[ClassWarrior]

1. Why does he hate Americans?

NGU.

[sakabatou]

10. Well, since the driver hates mourningdove92...

The driver must hate Americans.

[ClassWarrior]

13. Yes. It was irony. A Progressive version of...

..."Why do they hate America."

Get it?

Aww, nevermind.

NGU.

2. Toby Keith! That'll learn ya!

You know better than to mess with red truck guy! :scared:

I have never wanted to be somewhere els so badly in a long while.

A salute for all the peace workers. :patriot:

3. First they ignore us

then they laugh at us......then they fight us, then we WIN. I say let them be their own downfall. Every last one of them needs to be over in Iraq.

Im glad that your brother sees the light. You've done well!!

8. Yes, Ghandi had that one exactly right.

[classof56]

4. I suddenly had a terrible thought...

Most of the pickup drivin' "men" down thataway have guns and plenty of ammo. Please be careful. Cindy and all of you are the ones with courage and strength. Stay safe!

Blessings!

18. There comes a time my friend, in the course of human events when

personal safety becomes secondary. If you fear them, they win.

I've been shot at before, it doesn't disturb me anywhere near as much as watching my country die.

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. I wish I cuodl be over there with you

and if they start shooting, them are not mosquitoes.. DUCK!

Oh and been there done that, don't relish it, but I have decided that if I need to pay the ultimate price so my nephews live free so be it.

[w8liftinglady]

20. Most of them are Pussies,too

They talk big until they are face-to -face....

[liveoaktx]

5. I saw that guy at the park when we first pulled in-what a dope

couldn't hear him at all during the park rally though, boo-hoo

[speedoo]

6. I'd like to see someone give two enlistment forms to RedTruck..

asshole.

One for him and one for the "patriot" Toby Keith.

Two cowards, who support the Crawford Coward.

[Fridays Child]

7. Toby Keith? Well, that changes everything. God bless the red pickup man.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

9. Was it the guy that was on the news tonight saying the people with

Cindy are trash? Tell him that statement shows he doesn't support the troops! I guess he supports the continued abuse of our troops by the criminals at the White House.

[Generic Other]

11. Such colorful locals...just some good old boys...

Hope they don't all get liquored up tonight and crash the camp.

[orpupilofnature57]

12. Probably, one of the idiot's shrub praises, for policing our borders

[FreedomAngel82]

14. He actually said something nice about her too

And he said he cared. I'm surprised actually. Wow.

16. Guy in a pick-up, playing Toby Keith? Anybody shaking in their boots?

As Shania Twain might say, "That don't impress me much...". (Sorry, I just had to...)

By the way, to us Canucks watching from a distance, Cindy Sheehan is absolutely beautiful. Strikingly brave, wonderful woman of heart and mind, who, ironically, has * "shaking in his (phoney) boots". You go girl. Canada loves you, Mrs. Sheehan!!!

Disclaimer: The "Mrs. Sheehan" is my show of respect for this woman. She could be my next door neighbour, which makes her so special.

[SammyWinstonJack]

17. Pick em up trucks and Toby Keith=bush Country!

These red neck Texans embarrass us sane Texans!

[carpetbagger]

19. Too bad my shuttle ride had the windows up when we passed him.

I only got to hear the drive-by rantings of the beige pickup teens.

[progressivebydesign]

21. I have a song for everyone with Cindy in Crawford.

I hope it's okay to post lyrics here, this is the absolute most perfect for the week:

How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they’re forever banned?

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

How many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist
Before they’re allowed to be free?
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn’t see?

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
-props to Peter, Paul, and Mary.

23. I wonder how Toby Keith feels about his music used to harass Ms. Sheehan.

TK is a Democrat, although he sings like a bushbot. However, at some point he had a heart-to-heart with Willie Nelson and kind of changed his tune. Maybe TK would not appreciate it that some ignorant jerk is attempting to harass a grieving mother by blasting Toby Keith's music at them.

I'd really like to know how TK feels. For some reason, I think he respects motherhood more than he does the a** of whoever happens to be in the Oval Office.

[SledDriver]

25. Think it would be worth trying to contact TK?

[chookie]

24. I saw him on tv tonight!

He said something like -- "Them people ain't frum 'round here none. In these parts we support the war, the troops, and the commander in chief."

The footage that I saw, apart from this freeper dude, looked very energetic and crowded, like a lot of good people had assembled. My respect for Mrs Sheehan increases with every anecdote I read. I wish I could go to Crawford -- it really is the place to be.
