Dears, I'm telling you, the weekend is going to be TOO LATE. |

If this Cindy thing makes it to the weekend consider that battle won. The sooner they can make her go away the less likely the MSM will cover. In fact, now that I think about it, THAT's why the meida is not reporting...they've been tipped off that it won't be news; that somehow she's not going to be there anymore. I know that sounds tin-foil hatty but you've gotta read the signs. Go NOW if you can. Contribute NOW if you can. It comes to a head by tomorrow or thurs. This is a critical time, and we should see the opportunity this is --no politicians to comprimise and do things by procedure. It's coming down quick.Let's go.
ON EDIT: I'm not trying to discourage anyone from going, just want ya to get there as soon as you can!!Sorry for any misunderstanding.

1. Hate to disagree with you but look around |
|
we have the momentum. Higher profiles are going down there. Some of the media has already reported on this and if Cindy is arrested it will become BIG NEWS. I see this lasting the whole month. Not sure why you keep doing these sky is falling posts but take it easy, there is no way to lose in this situtation. Bush is backed in a corner, anyday now I expect to see T-Shirts that say: Chickenhawk, Chickenshit, whats the difference ;)

thing about Thursday is way important. That one image (if it happens; I really don't want her to have to go through that) will do more for this than any other media can. It's an emotional thing. If they don't do that on thurs.then great; lots of exposure. But I think critical mass for them getting the story quashed or not is in the next 2 days. You really can't spin a picture of a mother of a slain soldier being lead away in handcuffs; I don't care WHO you are. But IF it happens the image needs to be out there immmediately.

5. what if they held a revolution and nobody came |
|
the reason that this is powerful..and i just jumped out of the shower trying to make the very decision about whether now is the time or not ..to do just that...get on a plane and go stand behind and with this woman and our children...she may very well be starting a revolution..one lone mother guided by all that is decent and humane....this is not a political candidate or party.....this is one of us....begging to be heard...and you know what....the more bush refuses to acknowledge and dialogue with her..and her reason is justified..he looks like a coward...why should he care...he looks like crap to most of us anyway...but i think this is the call...right now....i could send money...which i will if i dont go...or supplies or something..but im thinking this is way important...in part because of its impromptu beginnings...each of us has to follow our own instincts...but if a million people showed up in crawford...wouldnt that be something...wouldnt that just be something...what if the 70% of us who wanted out of the war just drove to crawford to stand with cindy sheehan...i know im dreaming...but wouldnt it just be the start of something grand...

7. It is going to happen. |
|
There are a TON of ppl planning to be there by the weekend. I am just trying to get as many there before Thurs as possible because there is a rumour she will be arrested then,and we need documentation if this happens. The MSM seems to have been warned off the story. We'll see...

They now have a permit and people can all congregate there.. This thing isnt ending anything soon, Bush isnt known for his intelligent actions.

But the greatest opportunity is now when we are fighting to get coverage. I find it strange that all of the MSM interviews were pulled and then the rumor. Basic logic: the quicker they quell it, the less chance to have coverage. By Sat. its already going to be on the air.

But it isn't craphead who is calling the shots.
Most likely that is Rove, wherever he is. Or the Dickster. Or Poppy.
