Walter Reed - Week 191, December 12, 2008, Busy Season for DC FReepers A very cold Friday night and we broke out cold weather gear including hand warmers to stay warm. Hot coffee helped ward off the chill. Many drivers honked in support of the troops as they passed by our signs and flags. Halfway down a long block several moonbats stood like mannequins with their morbid messages serving as a grim reminder as to why we are there. The bus with its wounded warriors and their families returned at 9:50pm. NEWS FROM THE FRONT GATEPlea Deal wants to share...

Warning - Warning Will Robinson TROOPRALLY, Do not try deep frying a turkey in 30 degree weather!! And don’t leave the turkey outside while it takes 90 minutes for the oil to reach the minimum 325 degree temperature, it will also become super cold, the oil will drop to 50 degrees, never to come back up!! And so dinner started an hour late. Luckily we had plenty of chaffing dishes keeping all the other food hot and ready. But before the official D.C. Chapter Christmas Party started, a hearty but cold 8 Patriots FReeped the "Quackers" in Olney. They were...

After almost two years of the most ethical congress, the economy is in the toilet. But not to worry, Charlie Rangel has surrendered one of his rent controlled apartments in Harlem but claimed a homesteading tax break in DC. Everything is going to be OTAY when ZEROBAMA’S Three Stooges economic team takes over and reinvents...

“Billie” (as in a man that has no manly traits) had to sneak into his book signing event at the All Souls Unitarian Church, even with 3 police officers standing by the main entrance. He was a wussy when he sent out his sheeple to bomb and kill Americans, and he still is a wussy. Kristinn put up a thread alerting him to our protest and that could have been one reason that he moved his event to the church. When the manager of Busboys and Poets Terrorists establishment saw us on the sidewalk, he quickly showed us a flyer...

Walter Reed - Week 187, November 14, 2008, Veteran’s Day Week A misty, damp, but mild and quiet evening at the front gates of Walter Reed. A fitting way to end Veteran’s Day week observances. Many, as I did, visited the World War II Memorial, the Vietnam Memorial, the Iwo Jima Memorial and the Air Force Memorial, which overlooks the just dedicated Pentagon Memorial commemorating those who were lost there during the terrorist attack on September 11. But Friday night found us again at the front gates of Walter Reed honoring our service men and women, and supporting the wounded...

Walter Reed – October 17, 2008, Week 183, Plumber’s Support The Troops, Late BusesBrisk weather has arrived in Washington at last! Gloves and jackets were broken out. A very enthusiastic evening. A sign posted by plumbers union #007 was an unexpected conversation piece. The plumbers who posted it, didn’t stay, but left their plungers. Several moonbats quietly lingered down the block. They kept their distance. We spoke with several wounded warriors during the evening. One of the wounded warriors, Bob, from Wisconsin, had spent two tours in Afghanistan with the 173rd. He has one more operation to go and is...

Walter Reed – September 19, 2008, Week 179, The Troops, Always the Troops A cool Friday night at last, starting off pleasant, but slowly the jackets came out to counter the chill. Warmth was generated by several visits from soldiers, visitors and FReepers. This is the last Friday in Summer, Autumn starts Monday. The passing cars kept up their support with a high volume of honks. And the bus of wounded warriors and their families returning from their Friday night dinner was greeted by a solid group of FReepers with flags, signs and shouts. Dennis from Florida joined us for...

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic will forever admire the courageous stand taken by Linda Tripp to tell the truth during the dark days of the investigation leading up to the impeachment of President Clinton. This was done at great personal sacrifice. It is with great sadness and concern that we learned recently that, while others have profited handsomely from their criminal acts during the Clinton era, Linda Tripp has been nearly bankrupted and is facing foreclosure on her home. She was fired from her government job by Bill Clinton on the last day of his term. Her attempts to ...

The DC Chapter’s Warlord had called a meet but the announcement had gone up late. kristinn informs me that this will be a standing gathering from 1400 to 1600 hours Saturday until Osama bin Laden’s head is on a pike.

Walter Reed – August 15, 2008, MOONBAT MESSIN’ on a HOT SUMMER NIGHT Usually mid-August in Washington is hot, humid and quiet as the final weeks of summer vacation wind down. Severe showers were predicted but only a few sprinkles appeared which didn’t dampen our high spirits. Tonight at Walter Reed, a motivated and enthusiastic group of FReepers, visitors, soldiers and a steady stream of honking cars focused on supporting our troops and their families. Last week, Tom the Redhunter, wrote about crazy man and his demoralizing posters in our area. We took down a couple of posters that had...

I am wondering if there is a move afoot to "demonstrate" to Putin's people that what he is doing is an unconscionable. I understand that everyone who works at the Pentagon has to put up with an every-Monday protest by local long-haired, maggott-infested, dope-smoking, FM-Type; Neo-commies.

The passing motorist really showed their support this Saturday. With the weather in the low 80s and humidity down, no dog day of August this Saturday, the passing cars and trucks were just overwhelming us with supportive waves and honks. Even the trucks were blaring their air horns. A great day to be supporting our troops. Below are some of the pictures of our supporters. [Mrs] T got a lot of Double and Triple waves today. And lastly, a Patriot from Connecticut: And then there were the 9 Patriots who stood on the corner. We were: Legionnaires Glenn (WWII -...

MAJOR McCOOL REQUESTS SUPPORT FOR TROOPS AT CAMP ARIFJAN, IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FReeper's and GOE just received an e-mail from Major Dennis McCool requesting items that our troops can use immediately. He recently led the Resolve to Win march from North Carolina / South Carolina to Washington, DC. He is now the Director of Installation Support at Camp Arifjan (Kuwait). Camp Arifjan is where troops deploy to Iraq and Afghanistan. Major McCool is a 60 year old Army retiree, (10/65 – 11/85), a Vietnam Veteran, who was voluntarily recalled to active duty, and served in Iraq from December 06 to...

PleaDeal, John Miska, Chris, CTS PleaDeal, CTS, Chris Before we got situated, Chris and Dan, both patients at Walter Reed paid, us a visit. You can see them pictured in the upper left photo. Mrs T and VictoryNY talked with them for a bit. Found out they both grew up at Schweinfurt Army Garrison as a couple of Army brats. They were friends growing up. Both enlisted and went their separate ways. They both ended up together again as patients here at Walter Reed. Weather was...

FIRST ANNUAL CHRIS PLANTE / WMAL / HAPPY FREEPER NIGHT WMAL Reception Recently, about 50 WMAL radio listeners were invited to a meet and greet reception with radio host, Chris Plante, at McCormick and Schmick's at Washington DC's new National Harbor.

The reception was held outside overlooking the Potomac below the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. It was a grand time with a lot of positive interaction with people on the “same page”. We...

A protest planned by MoveOn.org against the ongoing House GOP floor protest became a surreal scene Tuesday when right-wing activists showed up outside the Capitol to protest the protest protest. The conservative activists, numbering about 20 and affiliated with Free Republic, stood behind the MoveOn speakers waving signs along the lines of “Pump Rage? Thank MoveOn” and “It’s the Supply, Stupid.” The MoveOn crowd countered with their own pithy “Drill and Spill, or Surf and Swim?” and “Just Say No to False Solutions.” The FReepers chanted “Drill! Drill! Drill!” as MoveOn’s Ilyse Hogue tried to speak into a bull horn....

<p>They come wearing motorcycle leather and business suits. They sport crew cuts and ponytails, some wearing long un-trimmed beards, others clean shaven. They park their Harley’s, Gold Wings, and three wheelers in rows flying the Stars and Strips and the black POW/MIA flags. Many bear scars and tattoos commemorating their service in Vietnam .</p>

We gathered on the north side of Lafayette Square at 2:30 to scope out the terrain. The moonbats had permitted Lafayette Square and the sidewalk in front of the White House. Not that the less than 100 “Out of Iran” and pro-Palestinian groups needed that much space. All in all, their small group looked pitiful in light of their claim that a majority of Americans supported their anarchical views. Even when the moonbats persuaded some on lookers to march with them for a short time, they were pitiful. For you D.C. FReepers, the regulars were there, Squeegie, Princess (in leather...

July 25, 2008, Soldiers and Visitors Drop ByA mid-summer’s Friday evening, not too hot, but a little humid. Traffic seemed not as heavy as normal due to vacations. Our group was enthusiastic and the passers-by honked their support throughout the evening. The moonbats did whatever they always do, generally be obnoxious. (More about this later). We have identified one moonbat as a paid traveling loser. He travels with his suitcase and catches the Greyhound on Georgia Ave to the next paid protest. We were joined by Danny, her sister Mandie and Danny’s three children. They are from Alaska and moving...

Gathering of Eagles has posted an Eagles Up Alert. Friday, AUGUST 1 and Saturday, August 2,2008, the moonbats are planning mass demonstrations against the possibility of America taking military action against Iran. Check out the Stop War on Iran Schedule for planned demonstrations. While GoE is taking the lead on this, FreeRepublic.com can do our part in helping GoE in countering this ridiculous protest. Log onto GoE and email your State Coordinator to see what is planned. Local D.C.

LoRo, Greg, Matthew, TomTheRedHunter Lurker Bill, PleaDeal, Chris, and VAFlagWaver LoRo, a Freeper, has been very busy working as an intern for the Heritage Foundation. She was able to join us on a fairly regular basis last summer. A few weeks ago she did a little recon and saw that we were still out here keeping Code Pink pushed down the street away from the gate. So she sent out an email to all her associates and friends at Heritage and asked if anyone wanted to join her at Walter Reed on the 11th. We were fortunate that she...

Click image to enlarge. hat tip: Kristen, Free Republic The more candidates call for "CHANGE!", the more they stay the same. Barack Obama--who has repackaged failed liberal ideas in a shiny rhetorical package, sold it to the young and historically-ignorant, and parlayed it into the Democrat presidential nomination--has used his FightTheSmears.com campaign website to publish an Enemies List. By tagging conservative activists as part of a "smear", Obama has re-defined the word to mean "those who do not agree with you". Obama's site doesn't say that the activities the activists are engaged in are illegal , immoral (to anyone other...

WOW and DOUBLE WOW is the only way I can describe the Patriotic Americans that attended the Walter Reed and Olney FReeps. It’s Saturday afternoon as I started this combined AAR and my heart still pounds with pride over all those who came out, especially to Walter Reed on the evening of the Fourth. Since I’m honored this week to write the Walter Reed AAR and usually write the Olney AAR, I had to combine the two because of their similarities. Several weeks ago a question as to who will be at Walter Reed came up. About 4 or 5...

The D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic.com invites all Freepers and lurkers in good standing, as well as veterans and their families, to join us as we stand with our FRiends the Gathering of Eagles and Band of Mothers against the pro-terrorist group Code Pink this Wednesday evening in Washington, D.C.Code Pink leader Medea Benjamin attacked Vietnam veterans last week in an interview with the Politico published last week:"I wouldn't characterize anybody who fought in Vietnam as a war hero," said Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of the theatrical anti-war group Code Pink. "In 23 bombing sorties, there must have been civilians that...

The Trooprally's drive in heavy rain on the way to WR In a few weeks PrezUSA222 (Chad) will no longer be able to stand with us at Walter Reed on Friday nights. He's got new responsibilities. Responsibilities that will require 12 weeks of basic training, several months on job training, and then a probable tour in Free Iraq. Chad answered the call. He's in the Army now. We presented him with a plaque of a photo montage of most of the troop support signs we've used over the years. The montage is an original creation by iMacMan. After I...

The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of terrorists to get access to our courts, illegal aliens can stay even when they agree to leave, and ruled in favor of child rapists. Based on this I wouldn't put it passed them to rule against law abiding gun owners if they ruled against an 8 year old rape victim!!

A few weeks ago we had a series of very powerful thunderstorms that sent trees tumbling all around the region. One was on the easement by the street just by where we put up the MOAB, and in typical Washington DC fashion the government hasn't gotten around to doing anything about it. If we'd have been out that night our MOAB would have gone the way of Dorothy's house. However, tonight was a nice evening so we got the MOAB up no problem, and soon the flags were flying behind it Honor Role of Attendees Your author Tom the Redhunter,...

JUNE 13, FLAG DAY AND US ARMY BIRTHDAY WEEKENDThe Friday evening, before Flag Day and the United States Army’s 233rd Birthday, saw our enthusiasm high with a continuous stream of honks and waves from passing cars. No rain ( a change from the recurring Friday night showers this past spring), but a very warm and pleasant night with cooling breezes near dusk, and good camaraderie among the twenty-three FReepers and visitors.. We carried plenty of flags and signs announcing the 233rd Birthday of the United States Army. The moonbats were restless as June approaches its full moon and a code...

FRIDAY EVENING, WALTER REED FRONT GATE:A sultry evening, hot and humid, typical Washington summer weather, albeit earlier then usual. But we had plenty of ice-cold water and sodas to help combat the heat. It did cool off at dusk and no one wilted. As we were setting up, VictoryNY, with only a sign, began to capture the attention of drivers and passengers. Throughout the evening we had positive participation on all four corners. RonGKirby didn’t disappoint as he continued to bring a relevant sign for the day. Tonight, of course, his message was to thank the WW II soldiers for...

May 31 was another great day for the DC Chapter Free Republic as we brought Operation Chaos to the Banks of the Potomac River. Kristinn and I decided to join in on the fun outside the Hotel where the Democrat National Committee's Rule Committee was meeting. While Kristinn hung out in front of the hotel to get a good spot, I decided to do a little picketing and photo recon in the nearby park and sidewalks, where Hillary Clinton Supporters were ralling and confronting some wayward Obama Supporters that dared to show up. Several Hillary Supporters I spoke to were...

<p>"Support the troops, bring them home now." "Money for wounded - not for war." Like "Free Tibet" bumper stickers, these are the "feel good" signs and phrases the apPeacers exclaim. What President Bush aptly described as the "false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history." 161 weeks running we've averted attention away from their bogus message.</p>

At lunch time, May 16, 2008, several members of the DC Chapter of Free Republic thanked the military recruiters at the Silver Spring, Md. Military Recruiting Center (MRC) and at the L St., NW, Washington, DC, MRC, for their service to our country. SILVER SPRING MCR REPORT:At noon, Mr and Mrs Trooprally, Cindy_True_Supporter, Kburi and PrezUSA222 carried pizza, soda, patriotic balloons and Certificates of Appreciation into the Recruiting Center. (Pics are by [Mrs] T). We spent some time talking with Navy and Marine recruiters. It was a good break for them and gave us a chance to express our thanks...

Hope you can listen in and opinions are welcome here.

May Day, the communists' day of celebration is a day that the moonbats look forward to every year. This year they were especially thrilled with a flashback to their early days. Fraxinus (BELOW) wore a different style t-shirt this Saturday but from across the intersection, it was a flashbcak to the psychedelic, intoxicating, 60s. Bringing this thread back to reality, we had another great visitor to our FReep. Frank is a marshall from the Gathering of Eagles events. While not loggin to GoE, he was at the WWII Memorial during that bitter cold, windy March 17, 2007 day. And he...

DC Chapter repudiated, repudiates, and will continue to repudiate Code Pink. We repudiated them when repudiation wasn't cool. We didn't wait for Code Pink to demonstrate the ravings of a lunatic before the Detroit Chapter of the NAACP. We didn't wait for them to embarass themselves before the National Press Club. We never belonged to the Church of Hate AmeriKKKA. They didn't marry us, convert us to black liberation Jimmy Valentine's Brother, typical freeper person hateology, or baptize...

The D.C. Chapter's Tenth Annual FReep of the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) Dinner took place on Saturday afternoon and evening on April 26, 2008. In attendance were Kristinn, Staytrue, gunsareok, Doctor Raoul, Jimmy Valentine’s Brother, Angelwood, Mrs. Trooprally, BufordP, bmwcycle, Rongkirby, Discodave, Dinosour. Our theme was "An Inconvenient Truth" where we pointed out many truths the media may find inconvenient. I think pictures and videos do a better job of reporting than a narrative so here they are. (all photos are courtesy of Mrs. Trooprally). First up is Doctor Raoul and JVB manning their customary position on the Northeast...

This is the time of year when when FReeping is easy. Temperatures are in the mid 70s during the day, dropping to maybe 65-70 at night, and humidity is low. The sky is partially cloudy, so you're not hit with a blazing sun, but neither is there a threat of precipitation. There was just enough of a breeze to keep you pleasantly cool, but not so much to tear our MOAB. In other words, it was a beautiful evening.

The moonbats (BELOW) brought in their reinforcements today. They totaled 8 hardened, grumpy Quackers. Our faux marine was again AWOL but that is to be expected from him, and they lost their American flags.

Finally, SPRING arrived in Westminster! PatrioticMarineMom and I were blessed with beautiful blue skies and sunny warm temps. Not much excitement for this particular FReep/Rally, but we did get our share of beeps, waves, thumbs up and a few conversations. One young girl driving by held her military cap out the car window. An Army wife walking by stopped to praise us and tell us she was an Army wife and they needed to be supported too. We agreed. Too bad all you male FReepers missed this one. The warm weather brought quite a few ladies out! A few said...

Blue Star mother Bev Perlson has a permit for a demonstration at that location for all three days. Anyone arriving on site should check in there from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. to stand...

This is my story and Hitlery's handlers are not going to get me to change it and B. Hussein O. can't "change" my mind by spouting his "typical" dribble. Where is Doctor Raoul's gas mask when we need it? The three moonbats that showed up today had all 16 patriots shaking in their boots and ducking for cover when a strange green cloud blew over to our side of the street. It was so bad that several patriots had to deploy to the other two corners. Luckily the brisk wind soon dispersed the strange odor and we we back to...
