WR FReep #69: One Beautiful Night!
08/15/2006 | PleaDeal

Posted on 08/15/2006 3:39:46 PM PDT by PleaDeal

Tonight we crushed the Pinkos in numbers: 38 to 7 1/2!

Other than that, nothing really happened. (Somebody please step in and refute that statement!)

The weather was phenomenal for D.C. in August (low 80's with low humidity!) which probably helped to bring out extra FReepers. We couldn't quite understand what kept the commie Pinkos away...

Attendance was extremely high this week, but it can always be better! The following FReepers and FRiends came out to celebrate tonight:

Just A Nobody, 2ndClassCitizen, 3D-Joy, Just A Nobody, Albion Wilde, Bill * from MD, BillF, Blueblade (also a member of Protest Warriors), BufordP, Just A Nobody, Christopher Lincoln, Cindy_true_supporter, Citizen SMASH, Daughter of TGSL, Just A Nobody, Fraxinus, Freeping_In_Silence, Gavin * from MD, George* & Ethel* from MD, Gretchen15, Just A Nobody, GunsAreOK, InGodwetrust1, Jack Deth, Jesse * from MD (formerly Iraqikurd), JoyjoyfromNJ, Just A Nobody, Ken * from VA, Kristinn, Landry Fan, maica, Just A Nobody, Olga * from VA, PleaDeal, Sensei Ern, Just A Nobody, TFroatz, tgslTakoma, Tom the Redhunter, trooprally (Mr. & Mrs.), Just A Nobody, trueblackman, Victor5* from VA, W04Man and Just A Nobody

Did I mention that Just A Nobody was here? Of course she was! She's here every week! She's just invisible... to cameras, that is :)

Pics this week provided by PleaDeal and the VERY MUCH MISSED Trooprally [Mrs]. Blue-bordered pics are by Mrs. T and her collection can be viewed here, with PleaDeal's pics here.

I really don't know why its so hard to get a good pic of this bus, but I just never seem to get any.

Trooprally [Mrs.] gets a good shot of the passengers tonight.

We'll be back out at Walter Reed next Friday night, August 18th, from 6:30 until at least 10-ish at the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Elder Street, NW in Washington, D.C. Let the troops know that regular Americans aren't too busy with TV, ball games, movies and other recreation to show their thanks and support to our brave troops and to peacefully counter America-hating moonbat-Pinkos.

Maybe you can't come every week, but please make it your patriotic duty to join us at least once in the near future. This FReep is rewarding, fun, and important for our troops and our nation.

As always, the DC Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence. No profanity. No racism. No provocations. Obey the law. Treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

Keeping the BIG HISTORY LIST: All DC Chapter Walter Reed FReeps - c/o BufordP.

Thanks for the words of encouragement from you and the other far flung FReepers. While the weather is great, we'll need your continued encouragement when the weather gets cold.

There were several Fridays this past winter that the pizza was frozen before we left the corner. Thankfully tgslTakoma brought some hot chocolate.

Your visits were also a lot of fun. Thanks for coming when you could.

I tried to think of a less offensive name for that corner, but the brain wasn't getting in gear. FReeper Ward is perfect!!!

I'm glad you like the ceegars! BufordP thought they were a little too manly :) I gave the rest away to a Marine... I'll bring something different this week.

Maybe you and others can make it down for the BIG FREEP 9-23-06.

I'm sure there will be space for you all "somewhere".

The weather was phenomenal for D.C.

And the DC Chapter is phenomenal!

The low pink turnout is obviously inversely proportional to the previous
efforts of the Protest Warriors and the WR FReep.

I'm sure it is hard to get pink sheep peeps to turnout just feel intimated.

Great FReep as usual, DC! Kudos from AZ!

I am unfortunately, on call that weekend. I work one week on, one week off, and the gentleman I work with has that weekend off.

Sigh. I really WOULD have come down for that.

Thank you very much for the ping, the pictures and all that you do. I will be there on the 15th of Sept. until at least 8:00PM and am looking forward to meeting the gang.

Long haul up from the FT Bragg area but I'm ready to go.

Please notice I was not in the "Freeper Ward" picture. I was out racing the 17 second countdown on the traffic light walk signal and doing my best Tim Conway "walk".

( if you remember the arm moving..."we're really getting moving now", barely a shuffle...that he did?)

Thanks for the humor!

If you wonder the number of times for Just a Nobody to be listed, you must not have ever felt the power of her wrath at being "left out". LOL
