One More Observation about Camp Casey
Last weekend, some people from Stormfront (if you don't know who they are, think David Duke with a bad attitude) decided to go to Crawford to "reclaim" the anti-war message. (Don't ask- trying to figure them out gives me a headache). Anyway, this was part of their "come and join us" message:
In my post about our trip yesterday, I mentioned that the folks at Camp Casey seemed... organized... professional... there are quite a few of them who are camping there for the duration... good food and supplies... now Mother Sheehan's Mystery Bus Tour...
How many tens of thousands of dollars are being spent in that small town in Texas? And who's paying for it? And why?
The longer this goes on, the more it becomes less about a mother's grief and more about discrediting the President. Then again, I'm not sure it was ever about a mother's grief.
The facilities at the Crawford Ranch Camp Casey are excellent: good food, shade, tents,The gang from Camp Casey who are posting online confirm this. They were joking (on that thread) that, yes, that's all true, but the Stormfront thugs wouldn't get any of it.
water, toilets, parking, and all basic necessities are there in ample supply. Most
supplies are free. All you need to bring is yourself, a good shade hat, and a
long-sleeved shirt.
