Welcome back. You missed some good times.

Any pics of your travels? Private FReepmail would be good.

"One moron came up behind us and started yelling "War not hugs", but I thought he was yelling "War not hogs," and I failed to get the connection."

LOL! Awesome job. I hope everyone had some chicken soup when they got home!!

"I told everyone that we were going to lead this march on to Pennsylvania Ave, with our signs, and to make sure we stayed IN FRONT of the police car escorting the march."

Good job!

Doesn't matter. I'd just be re-exposed on Friday evenings. I'm hopeful that my body has built up a strong immunity, but...

Thanks for the photo from the dark side. That was after some of us had left and the others were off marching in front!

I would say there were between 1,000 and 3,000. That seems like a wide enough range.

LOL! That is quite a large range. My range would have been between 400 and 800. ;*)

Thanks for the reminder! Make new sign!

I wish there had been a photo of all of us together.

"Time for the real conservatives on FR,
be it Republicans, Independents or Democrats
(like Zell Miller and John O'Neill) to band together
and oust the looney left and RINO's"

AMEN!

What was refreshing from my perspective was the reception we received from the tourists around the White House as we stood waiting for the "marchers" to arrive.

Two foreign exchange students from Argentina loved seeing us and asked if they could have their picture taken with us. One held the sign that said, "W THREE MORE YEARS" while his friend took a picture. Laughing they switched places so they each had their own photo. I asked if they supported President Bush. They looked at me as if I was nuts and said, yes of course and we support America!

A little later a group came up behind us. They were all laughing and talking very fast in a foreign language. Suddenly I heard a word I recognized...Osama! They managed to ask by gestures, if they could have their picture taken with our Osama head on a pike! They were great fun and very exuberant!

After they took turns with Osama photos I took group photos with several of their cameras with the WH in the background. IIRC, they were from Brazil.

Individuals, couples and families would stop and read our signs. They would then clap for us and thank us for being there, some posing for photos with us before moving along.

There is a lot more.....

Oh, I am sure there are photos out there. I mean a photo of ALL of us that were there. I don't think we were ever all together at one time.

Well done! I am proud to be associated with people like you through FR.

Thanks for the ping, JRios. I always enjoy seeing our own getting it done and sticking it to the wackos. :-)
