We're moving!!!
Miracles happen all the time here at Camp Casey, and this one in particular is
pretty amazing: Crawford resident Fred Mattlage has offered us his land as a
new base for our camp! This land is a gift in more than one sense-- it is more
private and secure than our current location on Prarie Chapel road; it
provides us with more space to set up; and it's a HECK of a lot closer to
Bush's ranch. The land is also adjacent to the church Bush attends while in
Crawford, so maybe we'll get a glimpse of him this Sunday. And who knows,
during his time in God's house he might just be moved to walk over and greet
Cindy! But perhaps this is too great a miracle to expect.
With this new, exciting opportunity comes some new needs. This land has far
fewer trees than the old site, and so we're going to be baking under the Texas
sun. To help us stay healthy and cool, we REALLY need the following:
1. large tents (both the camping type and the canopy type)
2. tarps
And remember, our much larger campsite means that we now have room for YOU!!!
Whether you can stay for a few hours, a few days or until the end of August,
you are welcome at Camp Casey. People keep streaming in from all over the
United States and the world, and we are so thrilled to have them.

Farmers for Cindy
Yesterday, we at Camp Casey had some unexpected yet much-appreciated guests.
Wayne, Buddy and Larry, three farmers from Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas,
respectively, wandered into the Crawford Peace House around 3 p.m. and my
first thought was, "uh oh, these might be Bush supporters." But to our great
relief, Wayne announced in his charming Okie accent, "Hello! We're here to see
Cindy and tell her that we support her and her cause 100%." Goes to show it
doesn't pay to stereotype, and even more importantly, that Cindy supporters
and pro-peace people come from all different backgrounds.
Cindy was at Camp Casey, so they offered me a ride in their F-250 and off we
went down the windy road towards the Bush ranch. On the way, they told me that
they had driven hours in their pick-up truck to tell Cindy that they are very
upset by the negative things some people are saying about her, and that they
are so proud she is standing up for the truth. Wayne, Larry and Buddy are
leaders in American Agriculture Movement, Inc., and they too have taken their
stand for justice by participating in the Tractorcade to Washington, D.C.
When Cindy met them, she was so thrilled by their encouraging words! Wayne's
daughter will be deploying soon as a nurse in the Reserves, leaving her 7
year-old son at home, and so the two of them exchanged words of comfort.

Bedlam at Bush’s Ranch
Alex Jones Goes to Crawford

I’d been to Crawford on the eve of the Iraq war and on its first anniversary,
so I thought I knew what to expect when I traveled there yesterday. Upon my
arrival Sunday morning, I found myself beset on all sides by the massive media
circus surrounding Cindy Sheehan, the mother of Casey Sheehan, a soldier who
tragically died in Iraq while attempting to give medical aid to his wounded
buddies.
