Brad is on the way to Camp Casey in Crawford to amplify the voices of the anti-war movement and provide us with extended daily broadcasts of The BRAD SHOW. We need your donations to make this mission successful so, please, take a moment and donate what you can.
In the meantime, there is more news coming out of Crawford than we can keep up with. Cindy has had to return to California to tend to her mother who had a stroke. The protestors have vowed to increase their numbers and continue calling for President Bush to answer Cindy’s questions.
Protestors marched to the Bush 1600 acre palatial estate ranch to deliver letters to the First Lady. Emily Sharpe of Crawford Update reports…
…
As we walked along singing “This Land is Our Land” and “God Bless America,” we couldn’t fathom that we were about to do what no one had done before: march up the entrance of the President’s ranch, special delivery in hand, without shots being fired. But we definitely did not expect what was there waiting for us… emerging from behind the beefy Secret Service agents was a Bush staffer ready to personally accept our letters to the First Lady!

Well, I didn’t see mention of any refreshments being offered to the marching group of brave protesters, a basic southern courtesy in many homes.
Not even ‘a glass of ice water and a few kind words’, as my grandpa used to say.
But Nana — those bu$h supporter told us all we need to hear from them. We already knew it, but it’s good to get it on tape.
bu$h Supporters: "We Don’t CARE!" "We Don’t CARE!" "We Don’t CARE!" "We Don’t CARE!" "We Don’t CARE!" "We Don’t CARE!"
Right Kira!! lol, that one tickled me all day. who was the rally coach, Karen Hughes?? lol
"We don’t care!" Somehow, I don’t think it will go down in history as a great rallying cry.
OH my God! You don’t think they knew they were coming do you? Let’s review. Lie about reasons for going to war. Continue the war even though it was built on lies and never take any accountability for being war mongering lying murderers or admit the truth about the Downing Street minutes. Yeah.. the self appointed furer’s wife has a press aid receive a letter from an unignorable group of anti-war protestors. BFD. Actions do not speak louder than the BUSHIT war. Ya all no anyone who would like to shoot first and look for weapons of mass destruction later in IRAN???
Let’s see….the highlights, as far as I can see, from the president’s supporters have been: smearing Cindy; shooting a gun off; mowing down memorial crosses with a pickup truck; and chanting "We don’t care".
If that’s their moral-high-ground behavior I’d just as soon stay down on the low road with you-all.
But wait, Joan! Thats not all!
Today, the PRO-war protesters, about 20 cars drove slooowly by camp Casey. They might do it again tomorrow.
Ah, the commitment! lol Hey, it’s hot out there, and the cars are air cond. and got them little cup holders for your gatorade.
Make them stop, I’m getting the hiccups!
😀 Please refer to the bush residence by its real name. It was a pig farm before bush and it still is a pig farm. please do not insult ranchers by calling a pig farm a ranch.
Sorry BarryG, will keep that in mind. Thanks for clarifying. I didn’t know his ‘digs’ had been a pig farm.
Been a long time since I lived on a pig farm, but I remember the smell!
Thanks for the update, David. You’ve been an excellent guest blogger!
Peace.
Thank you, Fooj!
