It was just announced that Friends of America, a coalition of local employers, associations, and elected officials, will host Sean Hannity, Hank Williams, Jr., and Ted Nugent at a Labor Day Rally in Holden, WV. The event will take place on a reclaimed surface mine, just south of Logan, West Virginia.
The rally will feature nationally-recognized musical entertainers and speakers. Featured speakers include Sean Hannity, a nationally-syndicated radio host and Fox television host, and Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science adviser to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
Featured entertainers include country music legend Hank Williams Jr., Halfway to Hazard, Taylor Made and others. American icon Ted Nugent will emcee the event.
The event is free and open to anyone. To register, please visit the Friends of America website by clicking here. The official press release on the event can be found here. There are still some people that love America!

Heck yes!
I teach in Mingo, but planned on coming back to Bport & spend Labor Day with my family. I love my family, but I’m definatley going back to be there.
Where do we get more info
Heh-heh. Allright!
WHOO HOO! I’ll be there!
This is HUGE! Thanks for breaking the story, Roman!
Maybe Hank, Jr. can write a song about WV and perform it like he does for Monday Night Football! That would be great!
Wow!! Me and my Rowdy Friends will be there!!!
What did Doug have to do with this? NOTHING!!!!!
But hey, at least he has the YRs and Blair to keep him company when they sit around the radio and candles in his new Chateau on Greenbrier St.

I will be there. I love America.
Wonder how the UMWA Labor Day picnic will go this year. Union bosses screaming to their flock to support the President and Congress who want to shut the coal mines down.
This event is going to be great. The best part about it is the location: southern West Virginia. The conservative movemen in West Virginia will get a huge boost from this rally.
I will be there!

Country boys will survive!
A great counter to the annual UMW picnic at Racine.
Great news about Sean Hannity coming to West Virginia along with others who feel as he does about our great country. I hope West Virginians give them all a very warm welcome! Most famous people do not visit our state very often. This proves that there are some who really care about us and want us to join them in their cause to save this country. God bless them and be with them when they visit Almost Heaven.
My compliments to all those who have worked to make this event possible. We are blessed to have people in West Virginia who are willing to stand up and step up and bring an event of this magnitude to southern West Virginia. Thank you to all those who have contributed finanacially to this effort and God Bless each and every one involved in this project. God Bless America and we will be there to give Sean Hannity and the entire line up and huge West Virginia welcome!
I am going..already registered
coming from Tennessee to support W VA and the Labor Day Rally. I am a great lover of Sean Hannity Too!!

its about time the colminers are recogines for wht they do for this country without them where would everone be its the miners who make this country for what it is
i live here in the heart of the coalfields, it’s great to have someone to support us and coal
Can’t wait this is going to be awesome
this is going to be off the chian
This event reminds me of Pinocchio. His father sent him to school to learn something useful but he ran off with Lampwick to Pleasure Island where all the rowdy boys could have lots of fun. They did, that is until they all turned into JackAs_es.
I’m sure there will be lots of braying but if your nose and ears starts to go – you better run!
Will follow you there Sean!!!
WV my beloved home state. I am against Socialism, cap and trade. Wish I could come there. Watch & listen to Hanity daily.
I believe in free speech and everyones right to express their opinion I have all races of family in WV and hope that WV finally shows the whole world that we are civilized and accept everyone’s views, even those we do not agree with. WV wake up why do they suddenly want us to be in the national spotlight, is it because the rest of the country has moved on and agree that we are all equal.
This is great, I may have to redirect my route to the great state of West Virginia on our way to Washington for the March on Washington event with the National Tea Party. If anyone can make it, come on and lets take a stand for our freedom. If we do not stand together and now, these carpetbaggers will dictate everything to all of us. God Bless all.
It’s sold out and I can’t come. But, let me just say that I’m with you in spirit and will be in D.C. on 9/11 and 9/12.
As Benjamin Franklin said: We must hang together or we will most assuredly hand separately!
Let’s surround the White House on 9/12 and chant:
“Hey, B.O! Get the B.C. or GET OUT!”
We will be traveling through wishing it wasn’t sold out we would love to be there! We are going to see our son before he goes to Afghanistan he is in the Air Force. We are Foxnews all the way and love Hannity. Praying you have a great day and we are behind the coal miners all the way!!
I am from WV and go Mountianeers!!
Sean is a biggot, Hank is a racist, Fauxnews is BS. Blankenshipt buys votes and peoples souls. I wish you a great peaceful gathering and i hope the sludge dam doesnt break! Good luck peeing or finding water and fighting the traffic.
“Sean Insanity” – You should not have any of those problems considering their might be 50 people in Racine this year. Hope you find “Ugly” if that’s what your looking for on Monday.
I live in KY thirty minutes away from where the event is. I wish I could be there, but I am in Baltimore MD getting ready to board a cruise tomorrow. Of all times I’m out of town. I love Sean Hannity!
I also love coal, it’s what keeps your babies warm at night.
All the UMWA officers that supported Obama will have a lot of support at their rally i am sure!!!!!
I WENT TO THE RALLY. I LOVED IT ALL.
