BCRW October Meeting Posponed – Attend Forum Instead

The Bastrop County Republican Women’s meeting scheduled for October 16th has been postponed and will be combined with the Bastrop Country Republican Party’s meeting on October 27th in Bastrop at the First National Bank Training Room, on Hwy 71.

Instead, the BCRW encourages everyone to attend the important Political Candidate Forum sponsored by the Bastrop Business & Professional Women’s organization and the Bastrop Chamber of Commerce. The forum will be held Thursday, October 16 at 7:00 PM in the Bastrop Opera House.

BCRW President Marilyn Etzel said “Our organization exists to support our local Republican candidates and we felt that it was very important for all our members and the public to attend the Candidate Forum that was scheduled at the same time. We appreciate and thank the Business & Professional Women and the Chamber of Commerce for giving local candidates the opportunity to meet and speak to the Bastrop Community.”

Enthusiasm for Republican Candidates in Bastrop texas

Bastrop County Republicans did great at Bastrop Market Days today. We raised some much needed funds and LOTS of McCain-Palin signs were given out. It was amazing to see people swarm to our booth to get signs. Sometimes they were being snatch up as soon as we could put them together.

Many signs for local candidates were distributed as well. Even more bumper stickers and information cards were picked up.

Thanks to everyone who helpd make this event a success and that helped us “get the word out.”

It was an encouraging day. If you watch the Media you would get the impression we don’t stand a chance, but it was really great seeing the support we have in the community, for the Presidential Race and on down the line to our local candidates.

I have heard Sean Hannity from FOX News is having a very special report on Obama on Hannity’s America this next Sunday night (10/12). The information below was emailed to me from a friend.

Please watch if you can:

Sean Hannity of Hannity & Colmes ~ Fox News, is going to air a very important documentary about Barack Obama, Sunday Night (10/12) at 9:00 PM (6:00 PM PST). He stated on the air this evening that no one in the news media was willing to do this.  Hannity is going back to Obama’s earlier days, showing even then his ties to radical professors, friends, spiritual advisers, etc.  Hannity stated this evening that he will show in detail Obama’s ties to Reverend Wright for 20+ years (which we all know);  how he was participating with this man, and not for the reasons he states!  He has uncovered more of Obama’s radical leaders and we will see things that no one in the media is willing to put out there.  This will be a night that you will learn more about Obama than ever before.  Hannity is very passionate about this program and asked that everyone please watch

~~ Sunday night 9:00 PM (6:00 PM PST).

Thank you again to everyone. We gave out a lot of signs today, so if you can donate to help the party replenish our stock of signs or donate to a candidate to help defray some of their costs I know it would be greatly appreciated!
