Saddam, Flipper FReep Kerry/Streisand Fundraiser in L.A. [PICTURES] (6/24)

Posted on 06/25/2004 8:00:47 PM PDT by markv840

Californians Give Kerry a not so warm welcome

John Kerry had a major fundraiser dinner this Thursday in Los Angeles; Kerry and friends, Neil Diamond, Barbara Streisand, and others met at the Walt Disney Concert hall, where they hosted an event for which tickets ranged from $2,000 to $25,000. This was of course, a great chance to show Mr. Kerry that not all Californians support him, and that when he comes here he’s sure to encounter some resistant. As it has become almost a tradition around here, Kerry’s presence brought on a grandiose demonstration of the FReeping abilities of us Californians.

This amazing demonstration was organized by our ferocious leader RonDog; the FReep went without a hitch. There were about 30 of us, the most notable were of course Saddam (played by RonDog), and Flipper the dolphin. Another highlight of the FReep was a pick-up truck adorned by several conservative messages, e.g. “Kerry is Unfit”; and a group of pro-lifers not far from where we were standing (and they had HUGE signs).

The media was everywhere, and they did several interviews. We all know that the most important thing in every FReep is to get our message heard as loud and clear as possible; and from this point of view this was clearly a success. One of the major advantages we had during this demonstration was the location; the Walt Disney Music Hall is one of the most dazzling buildings in Downtown L.A. and being across the street from such a place gave us a chance to sort of “cut in”. We made a lot of heads turn, and as usual we also made a lot of middle fingers rise. All together, this was everything you’d want a FReep to be like.

If THIS banner looks familiar:

...it is because we also used it at our "High Noon" FReep of the "cancer from A.N.S.W.E.R." - in Hollywood last March.

Kids these are professionals, don't try this without the costumes provided by the LA Freepers, they are without a doubt the best dressed Freepers I have ever seen.

some industrious & talented FReeper should make a bunch of the flipper costumes for the next few months use. Sell for 100. Good use of $$ & some good pubbie can make a little $$$

Not quite. :o)
We DID have lots of "flip flops" at this event, but we did not use them very much.
For security reasons, we needed to assemble ACROSS THE STREET from the concert hall, and SMALL objects were not very easy to see - from that distance.

Note, for example, the small "flip flop" sign above the "COMMIES (heart) Kerry!" sign - below:

It was a SMALL version of THIS wonderful idea, from:

wonderful post, signs, FReep! Thank you.

Ron, were you the one who coordinated the Rallys for America last year? if yes, you are the one who contacted me & first told me about FR. I was on Glenn Beck's site & there was a forum. I recall a "nice, helpful" guy from California told me about this "group". I truly did not investigate it until a few months later for the Vally Forge RFA

Great Freep! The 'Flipper' dolphin costume and sign is comical.

Also, it looks like there were a couple of inflatable dolphins to add to the mix. That gave me an idea, perhaps future Kerry Freeps might want to use helium balloons that are fashioned after 'flipper' the dolphin:

The balloons could appear to leap into the air if using two puppet strings. One string at the nose and one at the rear fin, that way one could anchor the tail to let the balloon rise to certain height and pull down on the nose at the top of the arc to simulate a head first rotation. Or, maybe such balloon operation would get too cumbersome?

I haven't been able to get "just a gigolo" out of my head, it's driving me nuts; I guess that's what happens when you listen to a song fifty times in a row :o)

Greetings from dc chapter. You guys did a fabulous job.
