Tonight we had a special appearance by Darth Cheney, who was ready to slay liberals anywhere!

THE RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY IS BACK AND IT'S BETTER THAN EVER!

Honor Roll of Attendees:

Tom the Redhunter, A Conservative Realist, Albion Wilde, Kristinn, tgslTakoma, Jimmy Valentine's Brother, Mr & Mrs Trooprally, Fraxinus, Sensi Ern, VictoryNY, Lurker Bill, 2nd Class Citizen, BillF, Plea Deal, Cindy-True-Supporter, VAFlagWaver, PrezUSA222, Brad & April with friend DellBabe68, all from Texas, Ingrid, Eric and daughter Carolyn, all from Hagerstown MD, and of course "Darth Cheney", aka 3DJoy

As is our usual custom, we gathering in the parking lot across from the main entrance to Walter Reed Army Medical Center in northwest Washington DC. We set about assembling our many flags and banners, and before long Old Glory (or should I say Glories?) was waving above the MOAB

Things really got rollong when our greatest cheerleader for the troops arrived, VictoryNY! Here she is, letting out one of her war cries

VictoryNY! lends a lot of enthusiasm to our gathering. Her voice booms throughout the intersection, and I'm sure the Pinkos down the street hate her. So much the better.

The Out-of-Towners

Here is April and her friend DellBabe68 , both from Texas. We see April every month or so when she's in town, but this is DellBabe68's first time.

Something for the Libs to Think About

During all their blather about "peace", have they ever considered the truisms in this sign? No.

They forget that the Civil War was quite controversial at the time, the Democrats having bailed by 1864. Yet who today could imagine not wanting to free the slaves? While today we remember World War II at least partially as a war to end the concentration camps, few thought of it that way at the time.

National POW-MIA RecognitionDay

I didn't know it at the time, but as it turns out, Friday was National POW-MIA Recognition Day

What It's All About

Here are the busses with the troops and their families. No matter what the weather, and whether we are many or few, we make sure we give them the most enthusiastic welcome possible.

If you can't get to D.C. to join us but would like to do something for the wounded, you can find a wealth of ideas by FReepmailing Albion Wilde, Cindy-True-Supporter, VAFlagwaver, or PleaDeal.

Come join us every Friday night between the hours of 6:30pm to approx 9:30pm.

Whew! We wondered if we were going to get this report.

3D’s Darth Cheney was extra special as she was headed back to Florida. Her drt wit will be missed.

I hope everyone gets the Darth Cheney. Someone had to explain it to me. I have to keep up with current events.

Nice job on the AAR, Tom! Dellbabe68 is from NYC though, not from Texas. Although we welcome her any time she wants to come! ;^)

It was great fun and so nice to see my friends, the regulars again. Thanks so much for holding the line on a weekly basis. I can’t wait to return!!

Darth Cheney, you’re awesome!! lol

Thanks to all of you for finding the time and energy to show the troops that there are Americans who respect them and are grateful for what they do.

My mother just passed away today...we had been expecting her to pass on this week sometime, and tough woman that she was, she just hung on.

My two brothers, my nephew and I will be traveling to Washington DC sometime in the next two months to bury her remains beside my father, who has been in Arlington since 2000.

I have suggested to all of them that we join the DC Chapter outside Walter Reed on Friday night when we do come down...and they readily agreed. I hope to see all of you again when we do.

Bless you and your family
as you contemplate your mother's life, rlmorel.
May God give you peace,
and console you with beautiful memories.

I know I speak for the many of us in the DC Chapter who remember you from your past visits, both online and at the Walter Reed FReep, when I say that we look forward to having you with us again, and standing beside you.
