Posted on 02/15/2003 7:24:35 AM PST by Cacique

Just got off the phone with Firebrand. The NYPD is jerking us around as usual. We are allowed to go through only on 40th street and will have to converge at the corner of 41st street and 1st avenue.I am updating the hotline 917-387-8865 of any changes.

I will try to post with my pocket pc from the location as soon as I get there. Getting in my car and will try to drive into Manhattan.

Disappointed freeper here- I attempted to travel on the interstate in central Illinois in order to reach Lansing, Mich., today (320 miles). Roads were dangerous. At times I was the sole vehicle on the highway. Speeds of 30mph to 50mph. Roads were snow packed with an ice base as it rained, then sleet fell, finally the snow arrived as predicted. Good luck to all.

Bump-

Go get 'em guys. We are cheering you on. BTW, you would not believe (or maybe you would) the breathless coverage on CNN of this anti-American stuff. It is just awful.

FWIW I did drive the 320 miles to Grand Rapids, Mich., on Jan. 29th. President Bush came to town, after the State of the Union address the night before. We- 25 strong, took on about 500-1,000 leftists.

I stayed up all night making signs for today's main event. Here are my latest creations...

Send Our Inspectors Army Navy Air Force Marines

Wage Liberation Free Iraq Remove Saddam

Liberate Iraqi People In My Name Freedom

Dear Old Europe War Solved Hitler

The UK march will be at least as large and hard for Tony Blair to handle.

Save your signs. Unfortunately, you will probably be able to use them again.

And this just appeared in Maine:

Thursday February 20th, 2003 Weekend of February 15th & 16th, 2003

How about if we all set aside a little time this coming Thursday evening? What if we just take an hour on Thursday evening and with a few, Born Again washed in the Blood of the Lamb Christians, friends, and family members go to the Lord in prayer. Asking in His name, for His help, guidance and protection for President Bush, his administration and our brave young men and women as they rid the world of saddam hussein. Let us go to the Lord thanking Him for removing clinton, his ilk and minions from power and replacing him with one who starts the day not with pornography and underage girls, but on his knees in prayer.

Let us go to the Lord in prayer thanking Him for giving us the ability and the power to remove one of the world's greatest threats, a man who sponsors with financial aid, weapons, intelligence and areas for training, those who attacked our Embassies, tried to sink the USS Cole, and on September 11th 2001 murdered over 3,000 men women and children in the USA.

Let us go to the Lord in prayer asking Him to bring to salvation our men and women, to forgive us as a nation for our past misdeeds, to forgive us and bless us for what we are about to undertake. To guide our men and women to their targets with as little risk to themselves and the civilian populations of Iraq, Syria, Iran and North Korea as possible, as they free those peoples, liberating them from the horrors of dictators that use them as fodder for their experiments, that torture, rape and enslave them.

And whoso shall receive one such little child in My name receiveth Me. (Matthew 18:5)

For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst of them. (Matthew 18:20)

Whosoever shall receive one of such children in My name, receiveth Me: and whosoever shall receive Me, receiveth not Me, but Him that sent Me. (Mark 9:37)

Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in My name, that can lightly speak evil of Me. (Mark 9:39)

For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in My name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward. (Mark 9:41)

Whosoever shall receive this child in My name receiveth Me: and whosoever shall receive Me receiveth him that sent Me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great. (Luke 9:48)

And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it. (John 14:13&14)

Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it you. (John 15:16)

And in that day ye shall ask Me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My name, He will give it you. At that day ye shall ask in My name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: (John 16:23&26)

On Thursday February 20th, 2003, it would be nice, it would be fitting and it would be right, for you and members of your family and friends who are Born Again Washed in the Blood of the Lamb Christians, to join with the President of these United States in asking the Lord God Creator of all things help, guidance and protection for the President, his administration and our troops.

If you live in the Oxford Hills area and would like to join our prayer group, call me at xxx-xxxx or email me at (I removed the email link.) With this in the subject line: Info on the Thursday prayer service.

God blessed America when she feared Him, now it appears, she may face His wrath.

A great big bump for you NY folks! I'll be waiting to hear reports from the field. Kirstinn is up there and will catch up with you all at your rally, and he can give you my cell # for call-in reports. I'll be home for most of the day, baking and cooking and watching the snow fall down here and checking in on your thread; so I'll be happy to post updates for you.

Godspeed all!

I'm up here in beautiful Manhatten. Just finished a live studio interview with the Canadian Broadcasting Company's Newshour program. It's supposed to be repeated at noon if anyone gets it on their satellite dishes :-)

It went well. I asked where were all these demonstrators when we were bombing Yugoslavia in 1999, or when the slaughter in Rwanda happened--pointing out their double-standard for demonstrating against "war."

The interviewer asked about our numbers today. I told her we didn't get our permit until Thursday, so we have no idea how many. I pointed out that we show our support by going to work, paying taxes and voting.

She also asked if it was worth the potential for large numbers of Iraqi and American deaths and a drawn out conflict. I reminded her that the media said the same thing about Afghanistan--body bags, quagmire, etc.--and it didn't turn out that way.

I told her we are not going to war against the Iraqi people, but to rid Saddam's regime of WMD and to rid Iraq of Saddam.

She asked if we should continue "talking" with Iraq. I told her that we have been and continue to "talk" with Iraq, but that we would not be at this point with the inspections were it not for the pressure and leadership of President Bush and the American government.

Well, I'm off now to the Tri-State Chapter's rally. I appreciate their work in putting it together and hope we have a good showing today. See you all later.

EAGLES UP !!!

See, you can still use your signs.

When the war starts, we are going to fly the flag. I will be looking for FReepers in my area for that one.

We will be flying it in support of the United States of America and all of the wonderful military that make it, "The only country on Earth worth living in!"
