NEW THREAD: TAKE BACK THE MEMORIAL RALLY, JUNE 20, 11:45
June 17, 2005 | firebrand

Spread the word!!

“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 one’s 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. ;-)

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.

I suppose being unemployed does qualify me as an official democrat protestor ;-)

Except that you disqualified yourself with your opening sentence. That indicates that you are currently, actively engaged in finding new employment. Sorry - no cigar.
