Live Thread: D.C. Chapter American Sector Inaugural Parade Freep

Freepers Calling In | Thursday, January 20, 2005 | Kristinn

[kristinn]

All systems are go for the D.C. Chapter's American Sector on the Inaugural Parade route.

The weather is cold, but warmer than the past few days. The sun is peaking through the clouds. Snow covers the sidewalks, but Pennsylvania Avenue has been cleared.

The barricades are up everywhere. Small groups of people are walking around checking things out.

I did a recon last night with BufordP after the Freeper dinner. ANSWER has their bleachers set up on John Marshall Plaza at the starting point for the parade at 4th St. and Pennsylvania Ave. They also have a stage and speaker risers right on the sidewalk at Pennsylvania Ave.

For all their wailing about the Presidential Inaugural Committee denying the public access to the sidewalk on Pennsylvania Ave., ANSWER has taken up most of the sidewalk space themselves with their stage and sound equipment, thereby denying their own people access to the sidewalk on Pennsylvania Ave. I hope the courts take that hypocriscy into account if their case is appealed.

Snow covered most of the American Sector last night. For those not sure where we'll be today, here's the info:

The northeast corner of 7th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW. Look for Freepers wearing white Pajama Patrol badge t-shirts with the word 'Marshal' in red letters on the back.

We'll be there from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. We'll have a rally from 10:30 to 11:30. After that, we'll line the parade route in our permitted area on the same block, just a few feet down on the north side of the 600 block of Pennsylvania Avenue.

We'll be calling in updates throughout the day.

BoBilly called yesterday, he'll be in Gambia another week, and then home.
I think he's recruiting for the military now. Seems a few locals want to join the Navy. I talked to my sister, (retired Navy) and there is a program which allows non-citizens to join the military and get citizenship.She told me she had Indians, Ecuadoran, Cuban, Nigerian kids in her unit on the Briscoe.

She was also the career counslor on the boat, and now she has civilian job with Navy, doing the same thing.

Hey, Chris Matthews! When are you going to apologize to Michelle Malkin? When are you going to treat a man like the way you treat women? Why are you such a coward that you have to beat up a little woman?

Race, you are the best! A big ole Marine Corps "Oooorrraahhh" to you!!

CSPAN-2 is running ANSWER's speaches and CSPAN is running live events.......A.N.S.W.E.R is a rabid bunch of socialist SOB's per my view here on the couch......gonna be quite a day.

Great job! Keep up the good work and stay safe.

[dstarr]

There don't seem to be too many paying attention to the ANSWER speaker. He's even getting some booos now. They all do look unwashed and kind of unlike the rest of us. Another planet maybe?

[Feiny]

Perhaps, I am now clean. Will get dressed, walk doggie and buy a bottle on my way over. I really should go to work....sober...but no one is there....hmmmm...I'll check back in after the walk.

[AnnaZ]

I'll check back in after the walk.

Waiting...

What little I have tuned in for has me laughing at the irony. They say they want to end racism, but are in full bore support of the racist attacks on Condi Rice. But since Democrats are doing it, it's all OK.
