Big Texas Thank You

Texas talk 11

 

T&p stationLast weekend - Texas, November 12, 2010

Robert Spencer and I spoke at an event organized by Sara and Dorrie, two powerful, passionate patriots in the Dallas/Fort Worth. They staged an incredible event at the redeveloped historic Texas & Pacific train station, a soaring Art Deco structure built in 1931. (Photo right. Ceiling detail below.)

I have not had a moment's down time -- to say thank you. This was a stunning example of the individual taking the initiative and making things happen.

The venue was breathtaking. The attention to detail was jaw-dropping, down to the name tags. Each one handmade with miniature Post American Presidency icons -- and the table centerpieces were handmade as well, each a huge book at the base. What heart went into this.

The crowd was electric. Good, decent concerned Americans who understand the mortal threat to the West and want to effect change.

And yes we had such a blast. Of course, I forgot my camera (slaps head), but these pics where tagged on facebook by Atlas reader Buster C., who made the trip to see us, so I grabbed his shots. Last time I saw Buster was last year, when he came to McKinney where I spoke to the Collin County Conservatives.

Speaking of Collin County, both Denise and uber mensch Katherine Park (who organized last year's McKinney event) were in attendance, as was Amil Imani, the new head of our Iran Freedom Initiative, Sid Garfield, Cathy Dunson (Atlas researcher on Obama's foreign contributions, Gaza Division) and her lovely son, Mike and Stacy, the 912 Fort Worth tea party leadership, and the Iraq war vets to whom we owe everything.

The New York Times

    "Geller and Spencer are probably the most important propagandizing Islamophobes in the world, these people's voices speak very loudly — not just here in the United States but overseas." Heidi Beirich, director of the Southern Poverty Law Center's Intelligence Project

About

Because


  • "I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline. Particularly when one can't see the details. Just the shapes. The shapes and the thought that made them. The sky over New York and the will of man made visible. What other religion do we need? And then people tell me about pilgrimages to some dank pesthole in a jungle where they go to do homage to a crumbling temple, to a leering stone monster with a pot belly, created by some leprous savage. Is it beauty and genius they want to see? Do they seek a sense of the sublime? Let them come to New York, stand on the shore of the Hudson, look and kneel. When I see the city from my window - no, I don't feel how small I am - but I feel that if a war came to threaten this, I would throw myself into space, over the city, and protect these buildings with my body."
    Ayn Rand
