1. How badly I wish I could.....

But on such short notice.....

[Midlodemocrat]

2. I can't go.

I don't have anyone to watch my kids. I did send her some money, though and I am sending her story to every news outlet in the US.

Best I can do from here. Sorry.

[BlueWolff]

3. I am trying to arrange it now..

I just can't sit here anymore and hear the pain in all these voices....

[adarling]

4. I get done with summer school on friday

then i head back home to Dallas. I might just go down there for a day with my little bro. We'll bring them supplies :).

6. I am writing to Boxer (my Senator)

Conyers and Kucinich to see if anyone in Congress has the guts to formally come out in support of her by showing up!
Other possibles are Maxine Waters, Barbara Lee, Charles Rangel...Any others you can think of?
And what about Howard Dean?
I don't know about people like Kerry, and I don't think Hillary would ever consider taking such a precise action.

Cindy just gave the Democrats an incredible opportunity. Will they grab it??

[Tempest]

7. The Dems should stay out of it

Cindy's crusade should not be politicized and give the rightwing ammunition to discredit her.

She'd doing fine all by herself.

[MeDeMax]

8. good point, i have to agree...

let her take him on his turf we can make ourselves available to assist should she ask for help.

[Tempest]

9. How the Dems can help

When Congress reconvenes, set up a hearing and have her testify.

Let the Repugs not show up, I dare them.

[AuntPatsy]

11. I agree except for one point, she needs more people behind her...

Sincerely, she cannot do this herself, the recent actions of the propaganda machine in full force is evidence of that...

I think its time the people took back their country from those who continualy abuse it's very basic principal..."Freedom"

[Tempest]

12. She's not alone in Crawford

From the pictures, there's Iraq war veterans against the war, two other mothers of U.S. soldiers against the war and a few other groups.

You can bet the numbers will increase as the weeks go by.

13. kick

[TheCentepedeShoes]

14. I agree and I wish I could be there.

I don't want any "names" to show up because then it becomes all about them. Masses of anonymous folks make a bigger point than a couple of celebrities or politicians.

[Rebellious Republican]

15. You make a good point, she is a registered republican and has

veterans to support her. Makes it real hard for the Neocons to attack her on any front.

I have sent money though! You can never have enough of that kind of support.

[judy]

16. I hope you are right...

And of course in my view, this is not political. A few Republicans sitting in with Cindy would be even better!

What a field day for the heat,
Million people in the street.....
