19. I haven't been able to, unfortunately
but Scott Galindez is still there, blogging and filming. We need to throw a party for that guy when he gets back.

His being there has ensured that truthout is getting out the coverage, and I've been slammed. And starting tomorrow, I'm taking the first real vacation I've had in more than ten years, which I booked and paid for before Crawford popped. So...

:)

I rode back to camp from the Letters To Laura march with him, and that straw one has about had it. :)

21. Glad to hear it - we missed her yesterday
But I'm glad we came to the big tent, Cindy or no Cindy. She herself said this whole thing is bigger than her, so we all need to stick together.

Have a great well deserved vacation!

(I'd ask where you're going, but since you're a covert CIA agent, I'm certain that you don't want that info leaked!)

38. proposal for Cindy
I hope Cindy that your Mother is well.

I hope too that you might consider leading Selma II, the march on Washington. When Camp Casey folds at the end of the month how about beginning a trek on foot to Washington? Wind it thru cities in the MidWest and East collecting an army of mothers on the way,children,boys,girls,men and women. A vertiable Freedom March. A huge gathering army moving East to assemble finally at the gates of a turd-stained White House.

I have been looking around for the next Martin King or Ghandi to emerge and lead this thing toward its rightful conclusion. Your it. You receive the unanimous nomination. It is true and fitting that in this time of wretched deceit and betrayal, brutality and high crime a mother surface to lead a huge band of mothers to spank this Baby Facism back to its crib and then contain it. I ask that you lead a March of the Mothers to the gates of Washington and then with tens of thousands behind you, that you bed yourselves down for the Fall in Mordor itself. Let us know if this is possible.

love,robert

39. Thanks for the update, Will!
I've been gone for several days and I'm tryin' to catch up. It only took being away from my "hold on reality" for a short time to know that it is worth the money to keep the GPS modem card service active! Great news to hear that Cindy's mom is feeling better. Hopefully Cindy is getting a smidge of rest and taking care of herself as well!

I read and soak in as much as I can here, still a posting rookie, but I am familiar with your posts. Enjoy your vacation... hey, is your trip gonna involve clearing any brush? I hear it's hard work! :rofl:

Okay, enough of my smarty pants routine. Travel safely!

44. She has all my good thoughts. All of them.
Hers is a name I won't ever forget. Like Betsy Ross, or Florence Nightengale. I probably won't spell her name any better, but I'll always remember her name, and her son, and the stand she has taken. NO matter what happens.

In my thoughts she is an American hero, one of the few hopes we have now for our nation, in getting the public attention, and the fact that she would probably deny her brave part in making it happen does absolutely nothing to detract from the truth of it. She isn't trying to be heroric, I know, but heros never do.

Thank you for sharing that good news about her with us Mr Pitt. You're a bit of a hero yourself.
