Once again, a brave band of Freepers assembled in Santa Monica outside the Fairmont Miramar at the corner of Ocean and Wilshire to freep John Kerry's $5,000 a plate fundraiser. Deep in the Land of the Limousine Liberal, we attacked the beast with our coolest and most colorful signs and costumes yet!
Ron's organizing skills were paramount in finding this "top-secret" event, but through diligent handling of sources, he was able to scope it out. Follow us, he says, and you'll visit a political world few get to see!
Freeper DoodleLady was already there when Ron arrived. Her SUV was the ideal HQ/changing station for our costumed characters Flipper and The Grinch.
Flipper and The Gtinch, complete with Santa Suit and appropriately mean Grinch mask. A great act!
The motorcade came southbound on Wilshire. Right at 6, we went th the corner of 2nd and Wilshire so we would be sure to get them coming ... And going at our main post on Ocean and Wilshire.
At 5:00 there was Doodlelady and Ron. 5:15 we had Genivive, her friend Al as Flipper the Dolphin. Ryan of the college Republicans was The Grinch. And Kerry saw us all!
I came late, as usual, and got plenty of pictures that will be on the site shortly.
Channel 7 was there and we think we got coverage - watch for us at the news tonight!
I'm posting this during our after-rally party with my t-mobile sidekick. Pictures are coming soon!

How about someone designing a grahpic of kerry 'walking on water" reaching down for Rasmann?
That would make a nice bumper sticker for that car.

Gee whiz.
You would think that Kerry would have dumped this goofy "salute" by now...
...but he is STILL using it (as recently as
