I just returned from the Olympia State Capitol Revote Rally. Across the street we had the Union recruited anti-revote protesters. They tried to drown out the speakers at the podium with their noise. We had a good sound man. They were pathetic with their 200 people. They did not have a single American flag but wore their union shirts proudly. The Re-vote supporters had about 1800.
Overhead flew an airplane with the banner: www.notmygovernor.com

There were all kinds of signs calling for a revote. Some of my favorites were "If I wanted Communism I would not live in Washington. Revote." Another said, "Felons can vote, the dead can vote, but the Military can't vote." There several that said "No Revote than Revolt." There were plenty of American Flags and the crowd had a moment of silence for God's protection of our troops and everyone sang "God Bless American."
We were addressed by Radio talk show hosts Rev. Daniel Lappen, John Carlsen and Mike Segal. We had state senators and state representatives and one Democratic representative. Stephen Sharkansky of www.soundpolitics.com told about a revolution going on with the new media (like the Free Republic) that is discrediting the likes of C.B.S. and the Seattle Post Intelligencer. We heard from Bob Williams of the Evergreen Freedom Foundation. We heard Ken Hutchingson, the pastor of Antioch Bible Church. He got the crowd shouting wildly "RE-VOTE!!", when he said. You have been told to take white show polish and paint "RE-VOTE" on your cars. As a black man I give you permission to take BLACK shoe polish and paint "RE-VOTE" on your white cars!"
It was a very good time for Freedom in Washington State.
