When: Wednesday, March 30, 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Where: Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 7200 Georgia Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C.

TRAITORS AT THE GATE

Members of Code Pink, a women's peace group, hold a candlelight vigil at the entrance to Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Friday, March 25, in Washington. The group vigil is to honor the sacrifice of the troops and bring to light the seriousness of their injuries. According to the group, the wounded troops returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, arrive to Walter Reed at night and after the hospital's clinics are closed. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais)

Crimmy she's not over the target area!

You can't arm the MOAB prematurely.

DC Chapter (read tgslTakoma) practices and promotes safe MOAB use at all times.

The anti-American left loves dead and wounded American soldiers. They are their favorite props.

How dare they share their traitorous faces anywhere near our troops. Infuriating! This is the same scum that will damn them as "baby-killers" and "murderers" in another arena.

Wish I could be there, will be in spirit!

(para) Never aim a MOAB at something you don't intend to hit - with the truth.

Liars hate hearing the truth.

And they especially hate seeing the truth in 12' tall letters.
