I'm sure there were grumbles and whines from Brian Becker and Mara VerHeyden-Hilliard when they tried to place their permit applications and they found out that the DC Chapter had already permitted the choicest locations!
I remember scratching my head on that day many months ago, when you got up early and trudged down to Park Police HQ - to put in those permit applications so far in advance. No wonder you and Angelwood are the Ringleader and the Warlord. Great advance tactical planning, kids.
;-)
We're sure looking forward to seeing you guys again. Mr. basil and I plann to arrive on Tues and leave on Sat. I'm working on some other Texans to join us there.
Sounds like fun!
I'm going to try to come up but, Lord, I hate D.C. in January.
Don't know if you will be making a moab, but I think if you really want to tick off the leftists, just put God in it. Like God blesses America and George Bush or something else.
An observation -
Four years ago the 'demonstrators' stood in long lines waiting to go through the security checkpoints with their signs on sticks, etc. My sister and I, not being part of a group, and not carrying anything except umbrellas, just walked up to the security and were checked in.
Good work getting permits for these locations.
