 CRAWFORD, Texas (AP) - War protesters extended the olive branch to their new neighbors in President Bush's adopted hometown by hosting a barbecue Saturday — and a few even showed up.
"You can have a dialogue, but you'll never agree," said Valerie Duty, a staunch Bush supporter who wore a "This is Bush country, by George!" T-shirt. "Both sides do agree about bringing the troops home safely. The difference is the way we go about that."
Locals have been angry since a man bought five acres last month on behalf of peace activist Cindy Sheehan, who said no one in the area would have sold her any property.
