Is anyone else wildly jealous...
of everyone who can go to Crawford right now? I would LOVE to go but I just can't swing it. Three small boys at home, no money for air fare, community commitments, etc. I wish I could just ditch it all and go stand by Cindy's side.

My hand's in the air...
Small kids at my house, too, that just started school. My heart's there and if I could swing it any possible way, I'd already be outta here!! Can't keep away from DU to read the updates!

2. You're supporting her in spirit!
And in numerous other ways and she appreciate it! I am grateful that I am only 3 hours away and can finally do something in person. I can't go to DC on the 24th but I can drive to crawford to stand with Cindy! I feel fortunate to be able to do that!

5. Damn right I wish I could be there!
This is looking bigger every day,
and I wish I could look back in my old age and say "I was there."

There are stiil other ways to support her without going down to
Compound W, so a lot of us will have to be content with those.

Send money, supplies (if you can) or just keep the story alive.
Get the word out!

6. Naw! I'm just glad I can support those who can go.
Sure, I wish like hell I could hop in my car and go!!! But, I can't. So, I'm sending money for food and the "potties" :P

7. Yes, I wanted to go, but got my bank account
Edited on Tue Aug-09-05 05:27 PM by Cleita
wiped out by a broken tooth and the need for a new crown. I'm sure there will be other causes in the future though as long as George is our king.

8. Yes I am a bit jealous, but
Cindy would want us to keep our kids well cared for. Plus there are lots of things that we can do at this end in other ways. Email anyone and everyone until Bush meets with Cindy. Go shopping a lot with freedombills shopping lists with Cindy info on them. Just remember not to forget them in your shopping cart when finished! hahah
Email your local news outlet and ask them to run articles on this. We have time to think of more things to help her.

9. Many other things you can do to help!
Check some of the links on this thread. People are sending food and water, helping rent porto-potties, sending flowers, postcards, money, etc. Some are even planning local events in their own communities. And don't forget the ones who are threateniong to go to their local police and demand to be arrested if Cindy is!

You can find a creative way to help!
