RETIRE ROCKEFELLER! JAY WOLFE for U.S. Senate

Well, it almost didn't happen. This whole Freep idea came about Friday afternoon after I got home and saw an article in the local (toilet) paper that both Rockefeller AND Byrdropping were speaking at a nearby GM plant the next day. I called everyone I knew and FReepmailed y'all and posted an emergency FReep notice (click here) but no one was available. I still had two people left on my phone list but kept getting busy signals and hoped to try again in the morning. Then, I got a call in the middle of the night that my sister was going into labor two weeks early so I didn't get back to sleep until 6:00 when she delivered her new baby daughter.

Saturday morning I called Tom, the last person on my list, and he said he was unavailable due to company. It looked like this opportunity was going to slip us by. It couldn't have been a minute after I hung-up the phone that he called back and said his wife said he didn't have to be there. Hot Damn, it's a go!

So Tom and I went to campaign headquarters to get the signs and arrived at the intersection of the GM plant access road and Rt. 9 in Martinsburg around 11:30. Then, Murphey's Law strikes! As we were positioning Tom's truck as close to the guardrail as possible, his ignition switch broke. We called Triple A and awaited a service call since he needs this vehicle and was adamant about getting it to the dealer for service ASAP.

Aah, but the stars were properly aligned. In the meantime, I called around and got a hold of another friend, Curtis, who, ironically, was about to call me back saying that his plans had changed and he was able to do some politikin' afterall. Curtis showed-up at 1 PM with his truck. His wife Laurie had followed expecting him to just drop the truck off to me, but they both got all caught-up in the excitement and stayed all day. TWO new FReepers, hooyah!

JUST IN TIME! Rockefeller was scheduled to speak at 1:40 followed by Byrd. We transferred everything from Tom's truck and set-up the display. Pink signs saying "Retire Rockefeller" were waved at passerbys on their way into the plant. The response was VERY GOOD. All the truckers sounded their airhorns. Got way more thumbs-up than down. Almost all the blacks were enthusiastic! (interesting)

Turns out that Rocky and Byrdropping were already there before we displayed, but we DID GET Rockef***er good on his way out. He was preceeded by two patrol cars, so we knew it was him coming. As soon as they saw us, they accelerated pretty quick through our gauntlet.

We waited and waited but didn't see the porkman leave - suspect he took the back exit as later recon revealed many cars leaving that way. Then, the three of us got everyone again plus those we had missed as they were exiting! YEAH!!

Funny sidenote: the dimwits were parking vehicles in the mud and reports were that many bacame stuck as was verified by all the muddy sides and tires of cars we saw. dimwits!

The pink "Retire Rockefeller" signs were VERY effective. I think people recognize him as a politician, know the name and his association to this state, and assume that because his name is associated with money that he must be a "good" porker like Byrd. Most people who did not elicit a positive response probably do not know that he's up for re-election and don't know his true record on the issues. We got a lot of "Why do you want to retire him?", which is good because it creates an opportunity to explain why he is wrong for West Virginians and present Jay Wolfe's positions as the viable alternative.

RETIRE ROCKEFELLER PINGS )))))))

[What Is Ain't]

Excellent work, freepers!

[folklore]

Great job RFP! IT'S A NEW JAY IN WEST VIRGINIA!

[itzmygun]

Beautiful.
If this State would oust Rottenfeller, I'd probably injure myself jumping for joy.

[ironman]

Good for you. Excellent Freeper determination.

[mountaineer]

Good job! Sorry we're on the opposite side of the state and couldn't assist in the freepage, but if either of our esteemed senators gets within freeping distance of the N.Panhandle, we'll do our best to be there. Now that our Jay has won the primary, I'm going to compile a "Jay vs. Jay" list of positions on various issues and will disseminate it. I'm sure many West Virginians will be shocked when they see some of the leftist votes the carpetbagger has cast.

[Temple Owl]

Great! Wish we had you in Pennsylvania!

[Militiaman7]

Excellent FREEP!

Thanks.

Praying that your efforts pay off. Many said that (now VA Senator) George Allen couldn't unseat Chucky Robb. Hoping Wolfe can give the pink slip to Rockerfeller.

[Militiaman7]

Rockerfeller = Rockefeller

ATNFS (All thumbs, no fingers syndrome)

[MadelineZapeezda]

Great job. Sorry that I couldn't join you. Opposite sides of the state.

Great report, for starters. I thought I'd comment on this particular line. What the sheeple don't seem to realize is that the Rockefeller bunch are closet socialist "do-gooders" from way back. It was the mama of the original Rockefeller who was in thick with the founder of the Planned Parenthood operation. I guess they felt guilty about hoarding all that money and found ways to keep it from going into the hands of the US tax coffers when income tax laws were first passed in 1913. Yes, let's work hard to DUMP off-his-ROCKE-r-FELLER!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

BTW, would it be safe to say that Wolfe is a FReeper Senate candidate? Should we assume he is one of "us"? I can't think of a more worthy level (Senate) to support here on this board and work hard, very hard, to get a sane candidate elected.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Funny sidenote: the dimwits were parking vehicles in the mud and reports were that many bacame stuck as was verified by all the muddy sides and tires of cars we saw. dimwits!

This brings new meaning to the phrase "stick in the mud". (grin) Rockefeller is the best example of a "Limousine Liberal" I can possible think of.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

No doubt Rockefeller and/or Byrd are going to show up at some function in the Wheeling and other western areas of the state. Consider this high encouragement to keep your eyes and ears open for such appearances and get them announced here on FR as activist FReep opportunities!

[countrydummy]

Great job! Wish I could have been there! On two occasions I wrote him and asked quite clearly for him to vote against CARA, what do I get? Two letters from him thanking me for my support of CARA! I was and still am ticked!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

By the way, the Jay Wolfe for Senate campaign can count on me for a donation in about a month. Right at this moment, our cash supply is a bit low, but things are turning around and definitely looking up. I plan on supporting as many candidates as I can whose platforms are conservative in nature - pro 2nd amendment for starters.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Anti-globalist/anti-closet socialist FYI bump!

RE: ...a "Jay vs. Jay" list of positions on various issues and will disseminate...

Mountaineer, it's already been done. Just go to the website and click on "Jay vs. Jay Poll". Then, do multiple print-outs and/or make copies. I like to do multiple print-outs, flip the stack over in my printer and then go back and print-out the "I Will Help" page from the www.jaywolfe.net website on the back page of the poll.

THANK YOU for all your support. Wouldn't it be great if EVERY Saturday there was a similar "Retire Rockefeller, Wolfe for Senate" display at a major intersection in EVERY county of the state? It CAN be done!

[RFP]

RE: give the pink slip to Rockerfeller

HEY, THANKS Militiaman!!! You just gave us a new campaign slogan!

GIVE ROCKEFELLER THE PINK SLIP, which goes hand-in-hand with the pink "Retire Rockefeller" demand.
