Someone might...
"...wondering if someone might post the picture."
I wish I were able to do that. But just follow this link to be reminded of Operation Iraqi Freedom's Betty Grable:

Unfortunately, she wasn't there today...... ;o)
'sok. Any excuse to post the pic...
Hey Nea!
I have my W-04 sign on my car, and my flag with "Freedom isn't free" and my yellow support the troops ribbon. The only time I take them off is when I'm going to the People's republic of Seattle. =)
It sounds like Fun, and You sound brave, and resourceful...:-)
WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!
Good Job!!!!!!
Well, to start with I have never seen so many unwashed, sloppy, scraggly people together since the 70s... NOT ONE AMERICAN FLAG DID THEY CARRY!!! No flag pins, not red white and blue clothing... The first thing that happended after the 1 finger salute is that a short, angry, middle aged woman told me I couldn't follow her on the sidewalk. (We were walking up to the next block.) When I pointed out I was just walking up the street, not talking to her, she stuck her butt into my sign to stop me - going from side to side as I tried to get around her. LOL Dang it's fun to watch liberals fall apart!
To add to SW's report, there were LOTS of vulgarities. As I left one guy read my sign and then spat at me as I walked by, lots of fingers, and 100 times more hatred of Bush than affection for Kerry. Gross sexual innuendos...do these people have a secret yearning for our president in the carnal sense? One funny one: a woman came by and became so incensed by our signs that she started screaming the Bush didn't serve, was AWOL, was a traitor and NOT EVEN AN AMERICAN! Unfortunately for her about 10 of us burst out laughing. Not an American? These peole are going to need serious mental attention after he wins the election and gets another 4 years.
Attending WA politicians list: John Landenburge PC Exec, Patty Osama-bin-Mama Murrya (who Joh Kerry said they had to fight for) Head of the D Party... Also campaigning for judicial positions: Armijio? somebody and Linda Lee. Also Dick Doresett was there, campaigning for the seat of Harold Moss at the County Council. He's a Dem, but would be much better than Tim Ferral.
A strange thing happended, many people left before Kerry arrived and even walked out as he began speaking... Even Linda Lee whose running for judge... LOL I asked one lady why and she said she had to go home, but it was odd. And of course we razzed them a bit he he he
Wonderful SW6906 had the winning one liner. The police were starting to move and talk on their radios saying that Kerry was only his way. Then SW yells out to the one policeman we'd been chatting with - "So, are going to see a presidential movement now?" After he said it the double meaning occurred to us. The policeman was turned away, but when his face was visible again I could see he had been laughing.
Also, I think I might have met Shotocan in a red car. As I walked across the street about 8:45, this guy asks me about the waffle breakfast. I asked if he was Shotocan, but don't think he heard me and he said his name was Joe, then drove off. I must have missed something in our exchange... LOL
When Kerry came in they played "He's simply the best" which seems to go very nicely with the words "He's simply unfit," which I proceeded to sing and dance to. (Much to the annoyance of liberals everywhere. No one in our group was hurt, we were well protected by Tacoma's finest.
I admit I didn't listen to all of sKerry's speech. BUT what I did hear: IF our troops are sent to fight they should be well outfitted. He accidentally forgot to mention that he voted against their body armor funding... BTW, Did you know Kerry served in VIetnam? LOL
Also the new buzz word is health insurance. Seems everyone pretty much has health care (of some kind) so now we all need health insurance - which is convenient since 43 million Americans do not have blah blah blah... Also, every person (American?) needs the kind of coverage that the Senate has etc. (It was a very frightening feeling watching the great unwashed all round me giving thunderous applause to the novel idea of taking other people's money to pay for for their goodies.
BUT HE HAS GOOD NEWS! (Geico, LOL) Kerry says he can fund it all by
1. Getting rid of those tax cuts for the rich (applause by morons who also get tax xuts but but don't understand it)
2. He will take back the free money given by the government to companies who send jobs over seas... Huh? Anyone aware of $ that government GIVES to companies who go overseas? Anyway, in sKerry's world, when we take away the rights of American companies to compete freely in the international marketplace we'll have all the $ we need to have wellness care, kids going to college, etc. (Thought we already had that.... ???)
I'll sign off here and let someone else report in, but I want to say thanks everyone for coming, and for hanging in there through the pretty awful first hour of the FReep when the wrath of the pastor was drowning out the message! BTTT FReepers ROCK! So do Protest Warriors, brave pubbies, and our Bridge friends!
Agreed. Have you seen their forums? They have Communists--the kind that think the USSR wasn't practicing true Communism--swarming the place trying to troll them into submission.
President Bush makes remarks during a public rally at Troy Public Square, Saturday, Aug. 28, 2004, in Troy, Ohio.
Way to go guys and gals, you make us all proud.
Citizens, not spectators! I hope that you at least ruined some of the Kerry supporters moods, and it sounds like you surely did.
When Kerry got near me, he had his glasses down on his nose, reading our signs. He must need bi-focals, but it looked so arrogant, them slipped down on his nose as he looked down his nose at us. Not one of the "people," certainly... I had my sign for George Bush and had a thumbs down. That small expression of disapproval earned me the finger from someone in an official vehicle that followed. Perhaps the Press Corp SUV van. (YES, SDKerry WAS in a large van type SUV!) The left is uncivil and unravels easily. My second sign said John F'n Kerry: Unfit for Command. It drove tham mad. Must have hit a very raw nerve... BTTT
I wouldn't dare put a Bush bumper sticker on my car. A friend had his car keyed and windows smashed in 2000 - he had a Bush sticker on the bumper. There are just too many DU / crazies in the Seattle area.
I have put my bumper stickers on magnets. I took them off and put them in the trunk for the rally, but slapped them all back on before I left he parking garage... ;)
Looks like you had them surrounded and contained.
Great Job!!
"PHOTOS PLEEZZZZE! We gotta See da pictures. Which MSM van and ego flipped you off? I'm sure it would make a great news item for Sean H and Laura I would just love to talk about it come Monday's show I'm sure."
Photos and vids PLEASE! I've said this many times before but it needs to be repeated. Take photos, take videos, to be even more effective have the cameras separated with each of this audio/visual Freepers wearing the opposition's shirts, anti-bush shirts, etc. and standing away. The libs will just think the costumed freepers are fellow travelers.
I know this is easy for me to say since I'm not in a prime Freeping state (NH) but if I could, I would.
