I'll be representing PW-and by extension, the patriotic, conservative perspective-in Central Park.
The people united, will never be divided!
Let's do this thing!
-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)
I'll be traveling from DC area to Fayetteville to FReep'em down there. ANSWER, United for Peace and Justice and Code Pink (see Flora McDonald's great graphic below, also a sign that really makes the Pinkos mad) are chartering buses to launch their major East Coast effort in Fayetteville, but they will deploy at numerous places from coast to coast.
Stick it to the "anti-war" protesters!
Give them an ear full from me!
I'll do my best.
One of my proudest personal achievements was the moment when I confronted that wildebeest, Leslie Cagen, head-on, during Operation Liberty Rising.
She was so cowed by my scathing remarks that she abruptly cut short her fluff interview with N.J. Burkett-or Chuck Scarborough, I forget which one-and fled back into her rat's warren.
:0)
-good times, G.J.P.(Jr.)
Please don't get arrested. I don't want to be riding the bus to come visit you now :o)
LOL!
Tonk,
I wouldn't give Kerry the time of day much less a free pass. We're still on him like stink on $h!+. I should be able to make it to this rally - God willing and the tolls don't rise...
Please tell what happened or provide a link.
Medea Benjamin was momentarily a deer in the headlights during my direct encounter with her as follows:
. . . when Medea Benjamin, leader of Code Pink, arrived very late and walked about 25 feet from us. I just happened to see her as I turned to my side.At the top of my lungs I chanted:
MEDEA BENJAMIN YOU CAN'T HIDE,
YOU SUPPORTED SADDAM'S GENOCIDESHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON YOU
USING WAR DEAD AND WOUNDED FOR PROPAGANDA.Angelwood and tgslTakoma added their own shouts as Medea, who turned to look at us, nervously smiled and waved from about 60 feet.
Above quoted from this thread (click here).
That was the second day of a leftists' obscene blood dance in 2004 exploiting our war dead and wounded as propaganda tools. They actually staged a mock two-day funeral march from Dover Air Force Base (protesting there) to Walter Reed Army Hospital (protesting there with Iraq war-wounded recuperating inside) to the White House (protesting). They were FReeped at all three locations.
Doctor Raoul had conducted a solo FReep at Dover AFB at the first stop of the leftists' obscene mock funeral parade and he had an up-close personal encounter with Medea Benjamin. After Medea fled from Raoul's devastating, but peaceful, barbs, a police officer intervened as Benjamin's’s peaceniks closed in on the solo FReeper. See Code Pinko Medea Benjamin Flees When Confronted by Doctor Raoul at Dover AFB, (click here for that thread).
Thanks Brother!
Some get it, some don't.
The ones who were never there may not ever get it.
You could get in touch with "Laserlock", who was patrolling the same picket line as me that day.
Your experience sounds just as rewarding.
There's nothing like leftist cretins scurrying back to their cubbyholes, after being bested in a one-on-one debate.
"Dr. Raoul" is definitely first among equals, as far as staging impromptu Freeps.
I'm just sorry that he couldn't make it to Operation Liberty Rising, at the RNC.
If you'd rather not discuss it, that's OK.
Still, I don't understand why I need to get in touch with Laserlock to receive your account of your interaction with Leslie Cagen.
I'm really NOT from Rio Linda as Rush would say. I'm just tired.
What am I misunderstanding here?
I didn't mean to give you the runaround.
It's just that he, along with Kphockey and God luvs America, comprised the main contingent of FReepers that were present at the counter-demonstration.
The extent of my participation-with the exception of that one picket-was very limited.
Here's the anecdote, in full.
Cagen and Co. had established their offices down the street from the apt. in which PW had headquartered its operations.
They were giving a press conference on the Monday of the week of the Rep. Nat'l Convention.
As Cagen was reiterating her litany of timeworn, anti-American, Marxist platitudes, I engaged her in direct verbal combat.
She was visibly shaken, and after concluding her interview with a local news anchor she retreated to her earlier position.
That's the sum total of what occurred that day, as far as I was concerned.
Well done! You're a true patriot!
What I'm trying to do is to convey to all the FReepers is the excitement of FReeping in person. You haven't really lived until you've FReeped the leftists at one of their protests.
Often, the leftists are stunned that someone actually opposes them in the street. They often chant "Whose streets? Our streets." Then they get a rude awakening from FReepers or Protest Warriors showing up and peacefully countering them, stepping on their media oxygen hose.
They really hate it when conservatives peacefully counter-protest them. However, if enough people did so, the media would stop promoting the leftists protests and their anti-war movement follow Saddam's unlamented regime into the ashbin of history.
You have the opportunity to conduct the first known FReep down under.
From following the links of the anti-American United for Peace and Justice, I found a group in your country: http://www.resistance.org.au/campaigns/iraq/nomoretroops.shtml. I'm not hyperlinking it on purpose, but copy and paste into your browser.
The left will be out in several cities across your great country. Closest to you they will be in:
Melbourne: Fri March 18, 5:30pm.
State Library, city. Organised by Stop the War Coalition. Ph (03) 9639 8622.
Here is the Australian message board to promote a counter-action and here is a list of Australia-based FReepers who you can ping if you are inclined to hold a peaceful counter-protest.
You can see my #38 reply above for some ideas, but you may want to hold Australian flags rather then U.S. flags.
Incidentally, when my brother in the U.S. military was over in Qatar and Iraq in 2003 for the efforts there, he was staying next to some Aussies and loved dealing with your countrymen.
If your work and family responsibilities allow you to FReep down under, please let me know after the event. If not, maybe you could be so kind as to pass the info onto to others who can mount a peaceful counter to the leftists.
make sure you post pix! I want to see some people dressed as fedayeen terrorist soldiers (sp?) holding 'anti bush' signs.
I can't describe the ebullient feeling that I experienced when some of my fellow FReepers-along with approximately a hundred other like-minded patriots, most of whom were drawn from Protest Warrior-were able to march through midtown Manhattan-in essence, to reclaim the streets-with the protection of a police escort.
It's something that I can't put into words.
