TAKE BACK THE MEMORIAL RALLY
Dear Families, Friends and Supporters:
For three long years we have played by the rules as set forth by Governor Pataki, Mayor Bloomberg and the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation. It got us nowhere.
We want a proper, fitting and respectful September 11th Memorial for the 3,000 innocent souls who perished that day. Not a history lesson about tolerance.
The planners of the World Trade Center Memorial have been put on notice that we are going over their heads to make our case to the American people. Please join us for a press conference to kick off our national campaign to enlist the American people in a Fight for Ground Zero. Our loved ones deserve no less.
WHAT: PRESS CONFERENCE & RALLY
WHEN: 12:00 Noon, Monday, June 20, 2005 (Please arrive at 11:45 am)
WHERE: Ground Zero at the Corner of Church & Liberty (rain or shine)
REMEMBRANCE: Please wear black or yellow to symbolize unity, or wear clothing that symbolizes your loved ones affiliation and bring a picture of your lost loved one to hold over your heart.

Thanks, Starfan, but I can't take any credit.
Debra Burlingame is pounding the pavement on this issue.
She and all those who lost loved ones on 9/11 deserve a memorial free of a "Blame America First" museum
I merely posted an excellent MIchell Malkin article.
It's thanks to all freepers, you included, who helped in both contacting media and keeping this visible. ;-)
Good luck to you all out there!
The rally should be starting in about 45 minutes.
Good luck out there!
Prayers that you find a job soon.
Good luck out there today!
On my way from mid-town !

bump! I couldn't go. Frank didn't want me to bring the kids there :(
Ping!
Sorry, I just missed you guys at the FReep. My daughter had a doctor's appt. that ran late (of course). I did talk to these cameramen who said there was a nice size group protesting. I asked if they talked to them, they replied they talked to a lot of people. They were interviewing a man and woman with posters, a big American flag printed with the names of the lost and a picture of a relative. Oh well, looking forward to future NYC FReep ops...sure there will be many. Ping for pictures.
Ah, summer break. ;-)
I agree with Frank though.
Thanks for the report.
I can't wait to hear more and see some pictures!
Except that you disqualified yourself with your opening sentence. That indicates that you are currently, actively engaged in finding new employment. Sorry - no cigar.
LOL good point!
BLESS YOU! GOOD LUCK! GREAT IDEA!
