It was a great big "Thank You" to our valiant wounded, and our best Walter Reed FReep yet!

But let's keep the pressure on the Pink melodrama across the street. We succeeded last Friday in outnumbering Code Pink, with their paid leadership and history of agitation, getting them to tone down their negative messages. But their underlying message, that the war is wrong, our President is wrong, the Iraqi people don't deserve our further help, and that the Iraqi combat deaths were for nothing, remained.

We invite the ongoing support of peaceful demonstrators for our messages, such as: We love our troops, we honor their service and sacrifice and we believe in their Commander-in-Chief's Middle East strategy. Common decency is revolted at the sight of leftist whinging in the faces of the wounded and their families.

Join us this Friday, September 2, as we continue our psy-ops attrition strategies against self-absorbed opponents too shortsighted to defend their own defenders.

You folks rock! Well done! I'm the Rear Det Officer for my unit up here in MA and I have 2 soldiers at Walter Reed for noncombat-related injuries. It really sticks in my craw to see those jerks out there. Keep given' 'em hell.

Great job.
Thanks to all who attended

Most importantly, the pressures of increased publicity forced this week’s Pinkos to soften their image – they had ditched all but one of their most shamefree, bloodthirsty signs…….

Possibly in a few weeks they will tone down enough to merge with us.

Pinging two late additions to DC Chapter ping list.

Words damn near escape me!

I am so very proud to be the wife of a US military member and just as proud to be a freeper!

Thank you all so very much!!

The support of our troops by great Americans like you is all they need to finish this job and come home to the honor and admiration that they have so deserved for so very long!

From the bottom of my heart, Thank you all!

[Angelwood]

AWESOME after-action report. Thank you very much. It was such a great gathering of people supporting our troops. Let's do it again!

[maxter]

What a day brightener. Thanks so much to all our military men and women who give so much and the Freepers on the front line as well. What a fantastic bunch!!!

[Taxman]

Taxman Bravo Zulu! to all who attended the FReep and your pics and most excellent report.

[BillF]

five of us wore yellow “marshal” sashes

Shouldn't we have sashes of red, white, and blue and let the lefties have yellow as their color? Maybe next time?

Wonderful report and photos.

[Dustbunny]

For some reason, many of the pics did not load no matter how many times I refreshed.

The DC Chapter of FreeRepublic is, quite simply, shutting down the pinko's at Walter Reed.

Thank you, friends, for all your excellent hardwork and dedication. My dream is to join you for one of these freeps.

[Kokojmudd]

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Hope I can make it out there one of these days.

So many leftists, so little sense. Let's see, first of all, the one code pink guy in training should learn to hold his sign right side up. Code pink obviously only come out in force under cover of darkness, and to the jerk who dares to lie on a sign about us burning crosses, may I remind him that the former KKK grand marshall is in HIS party. And since when do we shoot at peaceful gatherings? The only violence at any freeps have come from their side!

[BillF]

Did the CNN reporters ever come over to interview or video the patriots?

Did any WR protest-FReep reports air on CNN or was anticipation of Katrina such a big story that it blew away all such stories?

[tgslTakoma]

You asked your FRiends for someone to stand with us in your place last Friday, Bill. Look at how many people took you up on the request.

Note to all: The rumor is not true. BillF is not Karl Rove's brother.

[bethtopaz]

The narrative was great -- and funny!! Great pictures! I am so happy you guys did this and so jealous! I wish I could be there!!

Keep up the good work!

[Irish Eyes]

Well done, congrats from Arizona. Thanks for the pictures.

[BufordP]

Great job, AW!

They are tall and muscular, with tanned arms bare to the shoulders.

A bit of the poet runs in you.

If the LEOs hadn't been there, the code pink corner would have been empty 5 seconds after their arrival. They were some serious folk with an attitude. No ancient with a yellow ribbon would have slowed them down. Rolling Thunder said they'd be back.
