With pleasure!

Unfortunately, I won't be able to go this Friday. I've been to 17 of the 18 FReeps as I missed one when helping a relative with a medical problem. I would ask all who read this to go in my place this Friday if that is at all possible.
DC Chapter co-leader kristinn has confirmed that we shall continue FReeping the Code Pinkos every Friday night until they stop their obscene blood dance outside the hospital of our war-wounded. If you agree with me that it is outrageous for Code Pinkos to demonstrate at a hospital with war-wounded troops inside, please come out and join us in a peaceful counter-protest.
One of the amputees told me months ago that he doesn't want other wounded troops coming into Walter Reed and seeing only the Code Pinkos at the gates. He explained that the FReeper presence there was extremely important to counter the Pinkos. Please join us and be a part of our peaceful counter-protest to Code Pink.
Please don't let the troops think that regular Americans are too busy with TV, ballgames, movies and other recreation to peacefully counter America-hating leftists.
Being there with us in spirit is great, but we need people to hold the MOAB (Mother of all banners), other signs, and flags. Maybe you can't come every week, but please make it your patriotic duty to join us at least once in the near future.
As always, the DC Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect.
Briefly, they are: No violence. No profanity. No racism. No provocations. Obey the law. Treat all law enforcement officers with respect.
Start at 6:30 pm and go to about 9:30 pm.
Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 7200 Georgia Ave., at Elder St., NW
Code Pinkos have been setting up on the southwest corner of the Georgia Ave/Elder St intersection. We've been setting up on the northeast corner across the street from Walter Reed's entrance gate.
FReepmail me or post a reply to get on or off the list.
Injured Walter Reed patients, including amputees, have repeatedly told us how important it is for us to be there to counter Code Pink.
If we can sufficiently outnumber the leftists often enough, embarrassment may cause the leftists to stop these outrageous morale-damaging ("Maimed for a lie" is one of their signs) demonstrations at the hospital.
The same FReepers are doing almost all of the these FReeps. We do so gladly as a labor of love for our brave troops fighting terrorists over there, instead of waiting for the terrorists to come here. We FReep especially for those wounded in combat. However, some FReepers' family vacations or other obligations may prevent some of them from coming this next Friday.
Our troops are bold enough to face bullets, mortars, IEDs, and suicide bombers. Are you bold enough to get out from behind the keyboard, FReep in person, and stand up for the wounded troops at Walter Reed?
If you're in the DC area and don't have family or work considerations that keep you from FReeping, can you spare a few hours on a Friday night? Will you?
What a tearjerker. Thanks for sharing - GR8 pic ... and thanks for such a detailed description and call for support. Hope you have 30 next time.
Bless you D.C. Freepers for standing up to what's RIGHT about our country.
That's not possible. It never rains on the DC Chapter.
I forgot to ask you to do your magic last week.
How about it this week?
Right, the rain ended before the FReep. During the FReep, it was so insubstantial that it wasn't even a mist, but I think that a very small drop hit my lens to produce the weird bubble around the leftists effect. Also, I felt two mini-droplets, but then maybe there was a bird above me.
Hope that you can make it this week, even though I can't.
Bump! Are you and the Doc going to Crawford?
I can't go to Crawford or the Walter Reed this weekend because I've got something else going on.
I'm not sure about Doc. I think that he is going.
BillF misspoke. He had experienced a high humidity event. According to my friends, rain is what you experience at times in SEA.
Thank you. Thank you to all of you and your chapter.
I sometimes think I live in the Belly of the Beast up here in Massachusetts, but you folks have to take the cake.
Please keep up your good work, all of you. I try to make a yearly trip down to DC to visit my father's grave in Arlington National Cemetery, I am going to try to plan my next one to coincide with one of your counter-protests so that I can participate.
The Code Pink cowards called the police again. They call after they leave and two police cars come rolling in. We explain to the police that they are phony calls calls.
Did you make enough pictures of the ones with the Club gitmo shirts on to send to Rush? It would be neat if he would post them on his website with a description of what you are doing at the Walter REed hospital. You might could have a large crowd like the one at the bake sale!
Excellent job!! Thank you.
LOL - good one Bill.
Great report. I would like to give a special thank you to Halliburton for the "Rover" (what an appropriate name) and the "facial recognition" software. It is a great addition to our cause.

These "people" (using that term lightly) are shameless.
I hope all the Club Gitmo people sent Rush their picture. I'm sure he would love to post it on his website.
Yes, they sent a group photo. IIRC, she said it has not made the website yet.
I told my husband and he is making sure his schedule is clear - we have to bring our kids if we make it though - I am assuming that is OK.
