UPDATE: Iraqis to Join D.C. Chapter's Rumble at Rumsfeld's Round III, June 5
D.C. Chapter ^ | Friday, June 4, 2004 | Kristinn

Posted on 06/04/2004 7:01:17 AM PDT by kristinn

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic invites all FReepers and lurkers in good standing to join us at two events we will be holding on Saturday, June 5, in D.C. to counter the "antiwar" rally and march being held by International ANSWER that day.

We will be joined by Iraqi exile leaders and some of the men who had their hands amputated at Abu Ghraib on orders of Saddam Hussein.

At 10 a.m., we will hold a media availability on the north side of Lafayette Park at 16th Street and H Street, NW.

From 2 p.m. to about 5 p.m., we will gather outside the home of Secretary of Defense Don Rumsfeld in the 2200 block of Kalorama Rd., NW, and hold a peaceful demonstration of support for him, President Bush, our troops and their mission fighting the war on terrorism in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere.

The ANSWER march will arrive at Rumsfeld's between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m.

We have a permit from the D.C. police for our demonstration.

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

Link to original announcement thread.

Link to Washington Post article with a brief mention of our freep at the end of the article.

Let me get this right. I go up Connecticuit Avenue and it will be the first left turn after Wyoming Avenue? Is that correct?

If I can make it. Will know in the next hour or so if I have to work or not.

Anyway, have a great Freep all.

Wake up, Ms. Takoma!!

"Right Cares 'Bout Liberty!!"
(To be sung to Neil Young's "Days That Used To Be")

Sheeple say, "Don't rock the boat...
Let Slick go on his way."
Justice usedta seem so Right...
Still, Bill Clinton hasn't paid!!
I wish Right would stalk RATS' fool...
House should RE-IMPEACH!!
'Cuz there's very few of us left, my FRiends,
Who still care 'bout Liberty!!

FReepin's such a noble thing...
We follow Righteous dreams!!
RATS' transgressions and obsessions...
Mask the Unborn's silent screams!!
Left drags US down...
'Cuz DemRATS now're...
Traitors to our security!!
Bush should never have...
To make those deals...
Right still cares 'bout bein' FRee!!

(Guitar-strummin' interlude)

Live with it, my Lib'ral FRiends...
Right shall win this War!!
Best be happy with...
Yer ignored rants...
Hanoi John's a falling star!!
RATS won't git US where we wanna go...
In oh-eight, we'll git Hillary!!
Left's just another impediemt to the FRee...
Right cares 'bout Liberty!!

That looks correct. If you come down Connecticut Avenue from the Beltway, turn right at the ChiCom embassy on Kalorama. Hope you can make it.

Thank you for the wake-up song, Mudboy.

It'll be good to see you again out on the street.

Now, with an idea in my head, I'm off to the workbench ...

See you on the street!

I don't know. Gotta throw addy into Mapquest.

Don't know if i have any blue face paint.

BTW, FNC is reporting that Reagan's health is failing... He may be on the way out.

If it's his time, I hope he can go on June 6th (anniversary of D-Day). I think that would be fitting for such a great president.
