(Admin Moderator -- please leave in Breaking News. Hannity holding up a FReeper sign is big breaking news after the recent little battle.)
===================================================
FReeper blurblogger just dropped me off a few minutes ago. We were at the 4-hour event in Redondo Beach, CA put on by the KABC talk show hosts.
When blurblogger gets home, he will be posting an amazing photo. He and I are in a picture with Sean Hannity, and Sean is holding up a sign that says I LOVE FREEPERS.
What a fun event. Doug McIntyre, Larry Elder, Al Rantel, Mr. KABC, Sean Hannity, and new overnight host Kevin James put on a great show for us. There were some sparks between McIntyre and Elder over free trade, outsourcing, and tariffs. There were also some sparks involving the lone liberal on the stage, Mr. KABC.
There were boos when DemocRATS were mentioned.
Although we disagree politically, I am going to give big kudos to the MC, Brian Whitman. Brian is indeed a lovable liberal. He was a little upset a few weeks ago when someone reported to him that I had called him a Kneepad Knight. Hey, it was in good fun. Just like Monica was literally on her kneepads, the liberals were figuratively doing the same for their guy. Brian accepted my explanation, and we are friends again.
For those who listen to Hannity on Friday afternoon, it is Brian Whitman doing the voices of Bush 41, Bush 43, Michael Jackson, and the guy who got impeached. Brian is funny as hell and is a great talent. If more libs had his talent and sense of humor, perhaps we would get along better. His Michael Jackson stuff is superb.
Blurblogger brought some sign material in his car, and got it and his magic marker at a break. We managed to eventually work our way to a front row seat and were in position to get with Hannity at a break. I introduced myself as FReeper Doug, and he asked why I haven't called in for awhile. Hey, I've tried, but the line is always busy.
Sean autographed blurblogger's I LOVE FREEPERS sign, and a guy took our picture with Sean holding it.
Look, if someone comes on this thread to bash Hannity, I am going to find you and rip your throat out. Really. Go do your own thread. Yes, Sean promotes his books. Good for him. That's capitalism, and you would promote yours if you had a book and marketing sense. I promoted my book, A CHILD'S EYE VIEW OF JOHN KERRY, by giving a few copies to them.
Sean is a great ally on our side. He exposes the left's hypocrisy, uses their own words against them, and gets in their faces. He also has helped raise millions of dollars for families of fallen warriors.
Good news for us, uncleshag. Sean is waiting for his copy of YOU'VE BEEN FREEPED, Vol. 1. So is Whitman.
By far the biggest round of applause during the evening was for a member of the audience. Captain Michael Pierce is returning to Mosul on Friday. He thought he had a month off, but they cut it two weeks short. There was a big time standing O for the captain. At the end of the program, he was called up on stage. Michael happened to be at the Hollywood FReep recently. Godspeed, Michael. Go kick some more butt and make it home safely.
Did any other FReepers attend?
Stay tuned. The picture will probably be up by about midnight.
Yes. Does that mean I can't be a normal man and drool over Laura?
Well, I am not a big fan of his, but I respect him, especially for the friends he keeps. Boortz, Elder to name a few.
Doug, I've heard of you. I remember now. It was from Shag and other from the Canteen. LOL Congrats on your C.D.
Keep up the fight.
Thanks for the kind words. Uncleshag put in an incredible amount of work on YOU'VE BEEN FREEPED, Vol. 1. We are hoping that it will get some airtime. I am still smiling from being able to plug it on Sean's show yesterday. I appreciate that he let me do it.
That will probably do you a lot of good. Good for you. It's a tough business.
I've been unable to visit FR for as few days, what is this book?
I've been just fine -- but, I moved to a new home so I have been busy away from FR most of the time during the last two months. Thanks for asking.
"It is actually a parody CD that eviscerates several of the DemocRATS. YOU'VE BEEN FREEPED, Vol. 1."
Doug, the term 'eviscerates' implies that they have guts. You really wanna give them that much credit? ;^)
Well, Michael Moore has the biggest gut around.
...come to think of it, all the Dems' thinking comes from the gut and 'feelings' and not the brain. So, I stand corrected!
This is a funny thread!
And that's a great picture--it looks like you had a great time. :)
This is CPT Pierce. To the FREEPers, keep the faith folks we will do our jobs. That is my promise to you all. Watch our backs back here in the world. Right now we are waiting for transport north. And for obvious reasons I cannot disclose much more than that. Thank you for your kind words and your support. They mean a great deal to my men and myself. I sign this to you folks ... socomofficer. God bless America and all those who understand that freedom comes with a price tag.
Capt. Pierce, THANK YOU for doing your job. I am proud to know you and that many thousands of AMERICAN MEN and AMERICAN WOMEN are valiantly serving America and fighting for truth and freedom overseas. Men and women are free in the MidEast that have been oppressed for centuries. And other oppressed people are hearing it, seeing it and WANT IT. You are the torch-bearer, the messenger of the Bush Doctrine.
Captain, I PROMISE YOU that I and other FReepers will be fighting tooth and nail here, against the enemy within. We can't deal with them in the same, summary way as their comrades in Fallujah's spiderholes--but the ideologies and even much of their propaganda are the same. We will make the enemy within GREASE FOR OUR TANK TREADS by relentlessly torpedoing them with truth, outing their lies, posting photos of liberated Afghans, Iraqis and soon Lebanese and others and NEVER letting be forgotten Pearl Harbor, D-Day, 9/11 and moral cowards like Ward Churchill and frauds like Hillary Clinton. We will not rest, we will not retreat. We will push the lying enemy into the sea with our keyboards and faxes and boycotts and counterprotests and votes.
(I'm choked up.)
Godspeed and God Bless you, Captain. I salute you and all our military. Forward, march we all.
I met you in Redondo Beach, Captain. I have a beard and had on the OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM Navy ballcap. Let us know if you guys need anything. We will take care of the anti-war bastards here; you take care of the terrorist bastards over there. May you and your men all make it back safely to your families. Godspeed. You will all be in our prayers.
Hi, Socomofficer!
Wanna buy a burka?
