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!

I personally like the idea of dressing up as SANTA CLAUS...

...to shift the focus from the difficult to resolve (he said, they said) issues about Kerry's fraudulent medals...

...to his PROVEN lies about "Christmas in Cambodia" ...

Kerry visited us (Washington) yesterday. I watched the 11 o'clock news last night and they just showed a couple of meek and mild Bush supporters that showed up to protest Kerry's visit to Tacoma, and they made a point to contrast that to the tens of thousands who showed up to greet Kerry. The pictures are hilarious and I thank you for the reality check.

Great job and great pictures!

I, Jeann Le Jacquestrap Kerri, would never lie about my heroic efforts in Nam. Just look at my medals, that I didn't throw over the fence.

...they were greeted by members of the Hollywood Resistance Force (a.k.a. the L.A. Chapter of the Free Republic Network) - and a few of our FRiends...

As has been the case for MANY of our recent FReeps in southern California, we were joined by quite a few "not yet FReepers" - who are not (yet) registered to post on this forum.

Some I know by name, and some I recognize from previous encounters.

Plus there ALWAYS seem to be "new faces" who heard about us from a friend, or via a forwarded e-mail.

Here is the "honor roll" for this rally - as best I can remember it.

FReepers:
