    The Washington Post ^ | Tuesday, October 6, 2009 | Dana Milbank
    It was a scene repeated countless times during the Bush years: A few hundred people massed on Pennsylvania Avenue outside the White House, wearing orange jumpsuits and hoods, holding photos of wounded children or carrying coffins. They chanted antiwar slogans, acted out waterboarding and pretended to die on the sidewalk. Those who refused orders to leave the area -- including ubiquitous activist Cindy Sheehan -- were arrested. But the remarkable thing about this familiar antiwar demonstration is that it occurred Monday, and the target was not George W. Bush but the White House's current occupant. Protesters' signs carried Obama-specific barbs:...

    ...New Jersey and Independence avenues outside the Cannon Office Building was the Band of Mothers on Thursday afternoon, playing patriotic music, waving signs and asking passers-by to write postcards to soldiers as they have done at least 10 times over the past two years. "We give lots of hugs to veterans, too," said Band of Mothers founder Beverly Perlson. But not every demonstration is so warm and fuzzy, she said. Mrs. Perlson told this reporter about the time Rep. John P. Murtha, Pennsylvania Democrat, called the Capitol Hill Police on her last year. She had gone into his office to...

During the commotion a couple of fellows coming from Walter Reed entered the lot to retrieve their cars. Since they were unable to leave the parking lot I had a chance to talk to one of the young men. Found out he was from India....

Armed Forces Day is on Saturday, May 16, but GoE is dedicating the whole week, May 11 to May 16, to Recruiter Appreciation Day. The whole week will give everyone a chance to better plan their Day. The GoE link has a lot of great ideas so be sure to look at it, especially if you are new to this. There have been several One FReeper Recruiter Appreciation visits in the past so don’t think you need a group. Just do it. If the recruiting...

Another Tea Partier came up to me and asked if he could hang his “Don’t Tread On Me” on yellow background flag on my pole. Getting some plastic ties, it...

    <p>Sen. Arlen Specter must feel like one lucky man today. He wasn’t in his Capitol Hill offices when MAF Chairman Melanie Morgan, Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee, Freepers and Free Republic founder Jim Robinson, and other patriotic citizens stormed his office to demand he reverse his position supporting the porkulus bill, aka the Barack-Blowing-Through- Dollars-Scheme.</p>

    Since I don’t watch FOX, or really any “news” channels since the election, the Military channels receive by attention. Military Channels are a lot better than listening to than the dribble about Obambi and his first coming. So I plagiarized the tank saying. This was a good week in Olney. We had 9 Legionnaires, lurkers and FReepers. They were Legionnaire Glenn (USMC - WWII), Legionnaire Dave (Army - WWII) and his friend, Edith, Lurkers Bill and Mike, and FReepers Cindy_True_Supporter, GunsAreOK, iMacMan and myself. All pics are by iMacMan. Since iMacMan got to Olney early this week he got us...

  • Walter Reed, Week 196, Bitter Cold, No Sweat! (or smoke)

    In the face of a bitter cold, but clear and starry 12 degree night, we manned all four corners at the front gate. A decision was made to not put up the MOAB because of the wind and the extreme cold which makes the PVC frame very brittle. Some also discovered a not so well known tobacco fact. That is, extreme cold makes smoking cigars difficult. The cold actually puts cigars out by taking away the heat of the cherry. So one has to keep puffing or keep talking. Can’t do both on a very cold night. Trooprally turned his...

    Our very own iMacMan Cometh to a very, very cold Olney after several weeks being off, after finally getting his car repaired. Along with his appearance cometh his super great pics (BELOW) of passing supporters. In case you are interested, here is the link to the original 1973 movie, The Iceman Cometh starring Lee Marvin. One pic that iMacMan did not get was the lady who took both hands off the steering wheel and gave us two thumbs up. And this is the reason that we are in Olney, and some of us Walter Reed, every weekend. BELOW: Red Banner...

    Our numbers were small and got smaller as 2 of us left early for our Pro Israeli Rally in D.C., but we proudly stood our ground against an unexpected large number (9) of “Quackers”. Unexpected because we thought several of the moonbats would have gone down to D.C. to support Hamas. Patriots in attendance Saturday were Legionnaire Halsey (USMC - Korea), Lurker Bill, 3DJoy, Cindy_True_Supporter, 3DJoy and myself. Cindy_True_Supporter and I left around 11 AM since we needed to be in D.C. early to stake out our position. 3DJoy followed after the Olney FReep which had some excitement themselves ....

    Karl Rove wrote Let's Be Worthy of Their Sacrifice in the Wall Street Journal on 2 Jan 2009. He closed with this thought , “May the New Year bring safety to all who wear our country's uniform, success in the missions they so passionately believe in, peace and comfort to their families, and reunion with all whom they love.” First AAR of the New Year and as you can tell from the accompanying pictures the Goracle was warming up some other part of the world.

    In case anyone missed your pings, or you are not on the D.C. Chapter Master Ping List, the D.C. Chapter will be hosting a Pro-Israeli Rally in front of the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue this Saturday, Jan 10, at 1PM. Some of us will be arriving by 12:30 to set up. Just look for the Israeli flags. We'll also be counter demonstrating ANSWER's Pro-Hama/Palestinian demonstration. They start at 1PM. No end time was on their flyer. We have Israeli flags and some poster-signs. Feel free to bring your own. Snow is predicted which is better than rain. Snow bounces...

We’ll retire afterwards for R&R at Dave’s Bistro. All the Olney FReepers, regulars and occasional FReepers, we wish everyone a safe and prosperous NEW YEAR!!

But with [Mrs] T still recovering from her shoulder operation (she’ll be out this coming Saturday) and Lurker Bill having the flu, our stander bearers...
