Property owner will let Camp Casey move there - near W

[eleny]

"There is a meeting tomorrow at the County Commissioner's meeting to vote on closing Prairie Chapel Road and then evicting us. We were all worried about that and planning on being arrested when we got the best news yet. The property owner who owns property near Bush's ranch and right across the street from Bush's church will let us move Camp Casey there!! He has property on both sides of the road...a full acre for us to camp! We are so excited!!! We can fit more people and we will be closer to the ranch. Miracles, miracles."

Sorry if this is a dupe.

1. Way to go!

[I_Make_Mistakes]

2. How can we help?

[bribri16]

51. So how will the Christian Right explain this act of devine providence?

Wonder what Falwell would say...the devil is behind this?

[Fridays Child]

3. Kiss that property owner for me!

And, I daresay, for everyone else here, too.

Better yet, where can we send our thanks?

[eleny]

5. I guess we'll have to wait to learn all about it

[silverweb]

4. Beautiful!

And on private property, freeper creeps can't get close enough to do any serious harrassing or cause any further damage.

This is wonderful news!

[eleny]

6. Across from W's church, too!

[ikojo]

24. He is less likely to see Cindy from the church because

I doubt he visits it very often. He probably visits it when there is a photo op only.

32. it's not chimpy kookkoo banana's church............

Could it be the Cannan Babtist Church, located on property donated by Heinrich Engelbrecht around 1908.

Early services were conducted in German.

Nice looking old church on the high ground.

Note: that big ass white pickup that chimpy drives around really belongs to his ranch foreman, Kenneth Engelbrecht who sold his property to the Lone Star Trust, aka chimpy.

A base camp across the road from this locally historic church could be very interesting and a lot safer that the side of a county road that is now at the discression of the county commissioners. Bet they have been reading up on section 251 of the Texas transportation code. They are god, close a county road no problem, then go to district court.

7. I bet that guy loves the local paper too! This is so great.

This is huge. Bush neighbor can't stand the guy. Talk about payback. What more could be done to comment on how you feel about your "neighbor."

You guys are doing great.

[gardenista]

8. Beautiful. This is wonderful news.

Cindy and everyone at Camp Casey deserve some good news.

God bless that neighbor.

[JaneGat]

9. Beautiful news for Cindy

Bless that Texsan real good. :loveya:

[Generic Other]

10. This is spectacular news.

I will sleep better knowing this is going to happen.

Now, Camp Casey is going to swell exponentially.

[kevinmc]

11. THAT"S GREAT NEWS!!! n/t

[I_Make_Mistakes]

12. Like I said

How can we help?

[mrbill]

40. maybe buy the "triangle" for a back up????

The local tax office has the Vansau tract at a market value of $3200 an acre and a $90 an acre ag evaluation.

Where are the cows???

Offer absentee owners Charles and Marilyn of Clermont, Florida $10,000 for the "triangle".

They would think about it.

Crazy Larry might want to sell an acre at an obscene price.

[Horse with no Name]

13. This is wonderful news

I'm wondering if the neighbor will get a visit from the SS tonight.:scared:

[OneTwentyoNine]

38. Yeah,that property owner is now probably an enemy combantant...

Off to Gitmo,no family,friends or lawyers.....

[lavenderdiva]

14. Woo Hoo! This is fantastic news!

I read on DU today that the sheriff there in Crawford, had asked Cindy to please sleep at the Peace House. He said HE would sleep better knowing she was safe there. With this news, we can ALL sleep better knowing she and all the others who have journeyed to support her will be safe.

God bless this property owner.... O8)

[Rainscents]

15. This is great news!!!

I knew God would be there for Cindy because she is true believer of Christ! God always will take care of his people.

[jbnow]

27. Not to disrespect

God or his love...but if he does take care of his own that doesn't always mean keeping them safe and alive to a ripe old age.You have to figure all little children are his for instance.

But...still I was thinking along the same line. That God moved the heart of this owner, figuring if he had to deal with bush at this church it would be good to have some true light around too.

[faithnotgreed]

48. i agree with you both - God is absolute love but that does not mean

that we are kept out of harms way
or remain alive in a blissful state

not by any stretch

because God is pure love then we have free will and we are given situations to either learn or continue on or...

[girl gone mad]

16. I hope it works out.

Planning on going out there with my son tomorrow. The idea of freepers driving their pickups through the camp was making me nervous.

[Webster Green]

17. That's so great!

What a hero!

Now they have a safe haven for Camp Casey.

[Benbow]

22. Coca Cola sucks - that picture is really shocking

People in Third World countries - where Coca Cola markets relentlessly and rots their teeth - should see that picture. Next year, it'll be a Coca Cola truck in Zimbabwe, with Mugabe's murdering thugs standing in front of it in full riot gear. Or in Baghdad ...

[nofurylike]

18. outstanding! thank you so much for posting this!! eom

[aquart]

19. Now I can go to sleep.

[flyarm]

20. absolutely wonderful!

for every one asshole there are hundreds and thousands and millions of wonderful americans!

hugs to the property owner!!
may you have some peace down there in crawford!

[Gasping4Truth]

21. Great but

will the roach on the abandoned pig farm still be obliged to run the gauntlet every time it decides to go into the outside world for e.g. kissing a millionaire donor's ass?

If Camp Casey moves away from Prairie Chapel Road, doesn't this take a lot of pressure off the roach, even if the camp will be technically closer to the abandoned farm?

How often does it go to church anyway? I remember reading somewhere last year - in the context of the presidential campaign - that it wasn't very often. At least not every week.

[cornermouse]

23. Then again, this could be nothing more than a change of tactics

by the Bush contingent. A trojan horse, more or less.

[Tari]

53. They cynic in me agrees. I hope the guy is sincere.

[steve2470]

25. this is a miracle, that's great nt

[bejammin075]

26. Suuuuuueeeeeeeetttt!!!!!

[Kickin_Donkey]

28. I'm not sure what this means, though ...

until we get specifics on location.

If it's on the same road, but closer to the pig farm -- cool.

But I'm not yet convinced that it isn't some ploy by the * gang to remove Camp Casey to more isolated site on a different road and therefore less of a nuisance to * (even though it may be technically closer to the pig farm).

Something tells me it might be like one of those "First Amendment Zones."

Need more details.

[Extend a Hand]

46. I don't think you could get much more isolated

than where they are now. The news will follow Cindy. I hope they'll be safer. There were a few freepers driving trucks thru the camp (I think on purpose just to harass).

[laylah]

29. Yes,

miracles do happen! WTG Cindy/et al!
:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[HeeBGBz]

30. Rock on! Great news!

Glad to see there are some good neighbors there.

[lildreamer316]

31. Whohoo!!

I just woke up after seeing the crosses news before bed last night and this is GREAT to wake up to!! yay!!

[SheepyMcSheepster]

33. excellent! eom

[OneTwentyoNine]

34. Bumpppppppp...........n/t

[mogster]

35. Time to stop the harsh criticizm of Texans

They, just as everybody else, has opinions that not necessarily match our picture of them from a distance ;-)

[OneTwentyoNine]

39. Yup,got an uncle in San Antonio,can't STAND Chimp and his policys...

You can't judge all Texans by their cover,especially the one giving up his land for use by Cindy and supporters.

[tibbir]

49. Thank you.

It's difficult to get lumped in with all of the * radical supporters who live in my state.

[Vinca]

36. Great news! It should be safer.

[OneTwentyoNine]

37. Bawhahaha.....Land on BOTH sides of the road!!

I'm guessing that leaves the Freepers out in the cold if they close down that road. Oh wait,don't tell me....the road will be reopened for Freepers to set up camp. Wait and see....

[Catchawave]

41. This is great news.....

I worry about her safety with liquored up thugs who drive pick-ups.

[bearfan454]

42. That is super !

There are some devout Democrats in Texas. The entire state isn't red.

[tk2kewl]

43. Now that would be the neighborly thing to do!

Yay for the good Texas neighbor who knows something about America!!

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[Catherine Vincent]

44. Good news!

Now maybe our dear friend Larry can stop shooting his rifle off.

[anarchy1999]

45. I just spoke with Dick Underhill in Austin about this very issue.

It is great to hear that one of the Crawford locals is doing this.

Dick and I were talking about the townspeople and how we are being received and how they were going to handle twice as many this weekend. There are many locals that do not support Bush and are sympathetic to our positions but have remained silent out of fear of speaking out in "Bush country", reprisals from others and well you all know the rest.

So this is wonderful news. I believe if we handle this in positive and loving ways more locals in Crawford will find the courage to speak out knowing they have so much support from around the country.

Thanks all.

Also spoke with Kay and she asked me to express her sincere thanks to all that have contributed so much.

[faithnotgreed]

47. hi sherry - absolutely "if we handle this in positive and loving ways"

that really is it
and since that is how cindy seems to conduct herself every time then i am sure the people must see this (those who are open anyway)

and the conduct of everyone in the face of protestors etc has continued to be a thing of beauty

thank you each and every one for representing peace in all ways

[endarkenment]

50. So is there anything we can do to return the favor?

Seriously, if this is for real, somebody in Crawford has done something rather courageous.

[burrowowl]

52. How can we

snail or e-mail him to THANK him!
