This is my third little diary to try to MOVE people to attend a vigil tonight!
Perhaps this diary will motivate those of you that are still sitting on the fence! The press is calling me, they will be in Oceanside, there will be a LIVE 5 p.m. FEED from AT LEAST ABC.
1360 A.M. according to someone who signed up for the vigil said that Stacy Taylor said OCEANSIDE VIGIL IS THE PLACE TO BE!
PLEASE RECOMMEND THIS DIARY, we all know that the PRESS monitors DailyKos. Let's keep it up for the next 5 or 6 hours!!!
Below is my final PRESS RELEASE...REMEMBER THE MANTRA: "THE POWER OF ONE...THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE"
AN INVITATION
&
PRESS RELEASE
Vigil by the Sea III will take place on the beach at the north side of Oceanside Pier tonight (March 19th).
Setup of luminaries in a giant peace symbol will begin at approximately
5 p.m.
Lighting of candles of the luminaries will begin at dusk...individual candles to follow.
Tomorrow is the FOURTH ANNIVERSARY of a war that has gone on too long.
THE COST HAS BEEN HUGE
Over 3200 UNITED STATES Troops have made the ultimate sacrifice
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of Iraqis have died
Tens of THOUSANDS injured seriously
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of Troops now suffering from PTSD
Substandard care for our Veterans
Gas Prices over $3/gallon
Continuing failure of our infrastructure, schools, etc.
OVER ONE HALF TRILLION DOLLARS SPENT
WHO IN OUR GOVERNMENT REALLY "SUPPORTS THE TROOPS"
IT IS TIME FOR US TO PUT AN END TO THE TRAVESTY
I hope you will attend.
