I just got off the phone with a contact who has been helping organize the event.

He said they are just now opening the wall to more space for the crowd, which he estimates to be 1,000 with supporters still arriving.

Hopefully, I can coax a pic or two out of him for a scoop. If not, I'll at least get a heads up on the proceedings.

Looks like RP's hometown is hunkering down for an outstanding reunion. :D :cool: :)

nothing about illegal immigration? I'm with you on this issue Lord Xar. I'm also a member of ALIPAC, and have been contributing to them for years. I spend most of my time on this on this forum these days though.

I don't remember him talking about Illegal Immigration specifically. I would like him to focus on that more often as well.

Well I can't talk for other areas but illegals are non existent in western PA. That may be why he didn't talk about it here and there were no questions taken.


There may be some but isn't a problem at all.

We actually sat down with Lew and asked him to make sure that immigration and national security were mentioned more often, as it is a major issue.

I can't believe that no one has the full length video (this would be the 1st time) from the Pitts rally. I'd rather watch 54 minutes of video than just listening to the audio.

There were a bunch of cameras there, but I can not find any full length videos. I don't know how long it takes to download a video.

Dr. Paul speaking to the crowd.

Two videos before Dr. Paul took the floor on my youtube page. I only had an 8mMB card in my camera so I ran out of memory fast.

I had a great time! Sam caught me off-guard for a brief interview on Ettaro live, and Out of the Box News and Views also did an interview with me at the after-party, so check them out if you're interested in seeing me.
Both of these should be available, if not now, then soon.

Also, I know I said this to Tom in person on Friday night, but just to say it again, you did a great job with the afterparty and such, the location was just wonderful.

NOT true about the illegal aliens in Western PA!

The local building trade union business agents are screaming.

I have personally seen more than a few south of the border illegals in the Robinson Twp. Allegheny County area at coffee and fast food restaurants. These individuals that I have seen seem to be working the lawn care and outside seasonal work industries.
