Double-MOAB FReep of Code Pink at Walter Reed, Sept 9 (Heavy graphics, Join us Sept 16!)

DC Chapter ^ | Sept 13, 2005 | BillF with photos from bmwcyle

[BillF]

Having done this for six months, I'm calling mandatory FReeps for the next two Friday nights for the reasons given in red below. Those who've never attended and live with 80 miles must attend, unless you have a very good reason for not attending at least once (see below). If you don't come, I'll contact Halliburton to cut off your subsidized gas cards. Also, your docking privileges at the FReeper Yacht Club will be suspended. Your local Country Club and Gun Club memberships will likewise be suspended. I'm taking these actions reluctantly because some of you seem to be stuck to your keyboards. :)

Continuing now for weeks in a row, FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond have outnumbered Code Pinkos at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center, although the numbers were close on this night.  A leftist bicycle rider stopped on our side to exchange words. For at least the second time in this series of FReeps, an object was thrown at us.  As happened previously, two Walter Reed staffers come over to thank us for being there. Also, soldiers leaving the base indicated appreciation for us repeatedly and indicated contempt for the Pinkos.

Before continuing with the report, reprinted with permission of the sender, is a FReepmail below that I received last week from a service member who had read last week's report:

Re: FReep of Code Pink's Quagmire at Walter Reed, Sept 2 (Heavy graphics, Join us Sept 9!)

Bill,
Keep up the *outstanding* work. I am a service member who has seen combat in Iraq and have more than a few buddies that have been injured over there. ***I cannot stress the importance of the role you are playing in the states.*** The war stateside, in the public view and in the headlines will ultimately decide our country's fate. As for morale...we get angry overseas about hearing ppl whine about the war, but when we hear these stories  we are profoundly rejuvenated. I commend you for your service and bringing the fight to the enemy!!
[first name of sender deleted; emphasis added]

(After the sender sent that to me, I asked if I could republish, without including his screen name, if he so preferred. He authorized republishing without his screen name.)

Will you come out this Friday night to help cover the backs of our brave troops against the psyche-ops of treacherous Code Pink and their allies? Will you help our troops become "profoundly rejuvenated?" This is a mandatory FReep. That is, if you live within 80 miles of DC, and unless it is impossible or you have medical reasons or work or family obligations that clearly preclude you from coming out, you must do this at least once. How can you (yes, look in the mirror, I'm talking to you) do anything less for our troops that never let us down?

Pinkos and their allies are waging psychological warfare against our troops. We cannot leave them undefended against being stabbed in the back. Will you help counter this threat to our troops' morale?

OK, I've just been informed that I don't have authority to order a mandatory FReep. Therefore, only come if you believe in the troops and their mission and want to do something in your power to help them.

Code Pink is truly stuck in a quagmire as FReepers severely hinder the Pinkos' cynical attempts to manipulate severely wounded soldiers and relatives in hopes of finding those who will join the anti-war movement and break faith with the troops still fighting a ruthless enemy. Many of the most severely wounded troops from the war in Iraq and Afghanistan are taken to Walter Reed for continued treatment and rehabilitation. Many have lost limbs and many are suffering from post-traumatic-stress syndrome, which will, the Pinkos hope, open them to becoming propaganda tools of the left. Additionally, the Pinkos' other goal is too demoralize those wounded troops, but wounded troops have repeatedly thanked us for our presence as an antidote to the morale-sapping leftist antics.

Incredibly, Code Pink cannot muster enough people to achieve their desired fraud and deceit at their Walter Reed protest in the liberal bastion of Washington, DC, a city filled with left wing activists and where about 90 percent of the people voted against George Bush.

Do you think that the Pinkos are sickos to have an anti-war demonstration at a hospital holding war-wounded? Then please help us by showing up next Friday night per details below.  Stand up against the Pinkos who've endorsed "the Iraqi resistance" (as they call our enemy, see here and here), given money to the other side in Fallujah, and called our troops "killers." Then, the Pinkos demonstrate at the hospital and pretend that they support our troops.

This was twenty-first Fabulous Fun FReep of the Code Pinkos as FReepers continue to frustrate the Pinkos' evil scheme. For the first time in FReeper history, we simultaneously deployed two of the MOABs (Mother Of All Banners) designed and built by tgslTakoma.

As we have done on a number of these FReeps, we ate pizza on site at the FReep.

The honor roll of those in attendance (lurkers are marked with an asterisk*):  3D-Joy, Apple Blossom and daughter*, April from Texas (!!!)*, Bill from MD*, bmwcyle and daughter*, BufordP, concretebob, Conservative Conspirator, Coop, David, Doctor Raoul, Ethel*, George*, Jack Deth, JBB, Jimmy Valentine’s brother, Joan*, Justanobody, kristinn, Landry Fan, mr.sarcastic, mrs.sarcastic, profg, SonOfTGSL, tgslTakoma, Tom*, a very special guest (SG)* whose name cannot be given and BillF.  This was our third highest attendance with a total of 30.

In view of the large number of participants, many of whom we were happy to see for the first time (and we hope not the last), I may not include names for some of the FReepers and lurkers in photo captions if I don't remember them. Sorry about that, but I'm happy to have the problem of so many people that we can't keep track of them all.

The event was so large that I can only present that part of the story that I saw. If you were there, please describe your own experiences at the FReep.

[CLICK ON A PHOTO TO OPEN A LARGER VERSION IN A NEW WINDOW except those marked "not hyperlinked." Click on another photo and its larger version should open in the same window that the first enlarged photo did. Or you can simply close the window with the enlarged photo and click on another photo in the report to open a new window with an enlarged photo. Note that some of the wider photos may open in a window wider than your screen and you can use a horizontal scroll bar to see parts. Photos will be interspersed in the report. As it got progressively darker, my telephoto lens shots became less clear, requiring software enhancement. You will notice that people look more like cartoon characters in my later telephoto lens photos. tgslTakoma and bmwcyle are both taking better photos than I, but there are difficulties in me getting the raw photos from them.

Unless labeled otherwise, the photos were taken by me, but many photos, marked with an asterisk *, were taken by bmwcyle. (bmwcyle has his full outstanding collection of photos here.) I've cropped some of the photos. Next week I hope to be able to incorporate photos from both outstanding photographers, bmwcyle and tgslTakoma.]

Opposed to our 30 patriots, the Pinkos managed to get 27 America-hating traitors and their well-meaning, but incredibly-misguided, dupes. The dupes do not realize that their Pinko organizers have endorsed "the Iraqi resistance" (see here and here), given money to the other side in Fallujah, and called our troops "killers."

One of two corners occupied by FReepers and a MOAB. Additional FReepers lined up about ten yards north of the left of this photo.

 

Doctor Raoul and BufordP closest the camera, the southeast corner had the other MOAB.

With Mr. and Mrs. Sarcastic closest the camera, here is another view of the SE corner MOAB.

Lurker April came from Texas. (*  = photo by bmwcyle). If she can attend, why not you?

Jimmy Valentine's brother (R) and others, sometimes as many as 3 or 4 additional occupied a location about ten yards north of the north-most MOAB.

A purple-shirt biker (photo right) was quite angry talking to the FReepers as he passed along the SE corner. "There's such a thing as righteous anger," he snarled. Bush-Cheney are a murderous junta  in his view and Clinton was a liberal Republican. Apparently he tried to get FReepers to read more of his words of wisdom on his website, but I didn't hear what it was. (The site might be good for some laughs.)  He biked over to join the Pinkos or at least talk with them a long time. A car pulled out of Walter Reed and turned in front of us. The passenger on our side waved grateful acknowledgement, whereas FReepers could see the driver giving a one-finger salute to the Pinkos on his side. Those were beautifully illustrated reactions of our troops to FReepers and Pinkos respectively. Another driver, who apparently was one of the troops, drove along giving a top-half-of-his-body-out-the-window one-finger salute to the Pinkos. Although we don't encourage flipping people off, the troops certainly have earned the right.

Leftist in purple at right biked through SE corner and exchanged heated words with several FReepers, but kristinn tried to talk him into moving along..

Kevin McCarron in yellow shirt was the one who held the "Maimed for a Lie" sign in the past. Like all the Pinkos, he had toned down
the signage after a few elements of the press reported on the Pinko blood dance at Walter Reed.

Kevin McCarron, a leader of Code Pink ally and co-sponsor of the protest, Veterans for Peace, was back this week. He wasn't noticed last week following Code Pink's claim that inappropriate or insensitive signs may have been held by infiltrators. That Pinko claim, an obvious attempt to blame FReepers for Code Pink's own sickeningly, indecent displays outside a hospital,  was revealed to be yet another Pinko fraud. Specifically, it was revealed that McCarron, a leader in the Code Pink sponsored protest,  held the "Maimed for a Lie" sign. (Click here for the CNSNews story.) 

On this night, various FReepers shouted warnings across the street to Gael Murphy that the infiltrator McCarron was still in their midst. If he worked for Karl Rove himself, he couldn't be doing a better job of undermining the Pinkos. First, he holds the "Maimed for a Lie" sign. Second, he lets the Pinkos issue a statement blaming infiltrators, without warning them that he, one of their key organizers, held the sign that puts the lie to the infiltrator claim. Or maybe he truly is an infiltrator on Karl Rove's payroll?

Pinkos in the early stages.

They managed to find an unburned American flag.

"QUIET ZONE Soldiers Healing" sign was just added in the last few weeks when Code Pink got a well-deserved black eye for their
psyche-op blood dance at Walter Reed. Yet, somebody still needs to tell the guitar player under the Pinkos new "Honor the Troops"
mini-banner. *

BELOW NOT HYPERLINKED

I added the purple arrows indicating a phantom lower part of a person at right and a phantom car at left to this photo * taken by
bmwcyle. I want to assure all that these were simply artifacts from the camera aperture timing. There is no truth to the rumor in
leftist' circles that our cameras have been modified by Halliburton to include GITMO beams which teleport people to GITMO. *

For the first time in memory, maybe the first time in the series of FReeps, Blue Pony-Tail Guy, wore something other than a blue shirt (see photo at right). This guy provided us with numerous laughs on earlier occasions when he held a sign that said: "Workers and Soldiers United." If  Karl Rove paid an infiltrator to make them look like a bunch of commies, that is the sign the infiltrator would bring. Jack Deth commented that "Code Pink is responding to us in that Blue Shirt Guy changed the color of his shirt to black and it looks like he actually took a bath this week."     Exhibit A for apple in the attack on Doctor Raoul. * Quoting bmwcyle's great capation for this: "The apple that hit the doctor. An apple a day won't keep this doctor away."

Blue Pony-Tail Guy has a shirt that isn't blue. Who knew?

Past the Pinko announced 9 pm quitting time, and after the leftists had abandoned the Northwest (NW) corner and were packing to leave from the Southwest (SW) corner, Coop and at least one other FReeper went over to stand on the NW corner. One of the Pinkos came to them and claimed that they had to leave because the Code Pink permit goes to 10 pm (even though the announced time of their blood dance is 7 to 9 pm). The FReepers went back over to what the soldiers call "the good side" (they call the Pinko side "the bad side").

A short time later when most Pinkos were just going to their vehicles, BufordP darted across the road with a FReeper sign to the NW corner and did a jig reminiscent of the end zone dances of wide receivers following a touch-down in years past (before the NFL rules' changes). Unfortunately, the darkness of the night prevented us from getting any photos. BufordP quickly came back to the FReeper side before any Pinko again ridiculously asserted any permit rights to a corner that they had long sense vacated.

Some guy in a vehicle exchanged words with Doctor Raoul. Then he drove back again and threw an object. All were relieved that it was just an apple that hit the Doctor of FReep on his instep. The police were called, lest the perp return with a stone next time. Doctor Raoul told the officer that we could show him the apple in case he wanted to dust it for prints or wanted it for his lunch tomorrow. Raoul told the officer of having tangerines thrown at him years ago, leading to the perps' arrests on numerous drug charges for the contents of their vehicle. I told the officer that Raoul had thus been victimized by a drive-by fruiting before. However, humor aside, all agreed that the police should pursue the matter further to reduce the risk of more serious attacks. The officer was given the license number of the vehicle.

Officer and FReepers joked about the "drive-by fruiting," but agreed that there should be a serious follow-up.

As happened in the previous week, two medics, who work in Walter Reed, came over to personally thank us for being there to support them and the patients.

The Pinkos came close to equaling our number this week, but fell just short. We need more people coming.

We absolutely must keep the pressure on Code Pink and keep showing the wounded soldiers at Walter Reed that Code Pink doesn't speak for the nation. If you live in the DC area and haven't yet come out for one of these FReeps, please do so this next Friday. 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" was one of their commonly-used signs) demonstrations at the hospital. What about you? Can you spare a few hours on a Friday night?  

Can you give up next Friday night at the movies to support troops who've given up limbs for your freedoms? Will you?

This FReep is rewarding, fun and important for our troops and our nation.

big ol' bump and hope to join this week!

[Just A Nobody]

I posted the same info with an absurd title about naked models and genitals.

OH MY GOSH ... I meant to yell at you Friday night for pinging me to trashy threads!!! I never clicked it to see what it was. I thought you were just some pervert disguised as a troop supporter. LOL!

Here's a bump!

[Coop]

I never clicked it to see what it was.

You were one of the few. :}

[Just A Nobody]

It will be good to have you back with us nina!!!

[NRA1995]

Yah mo be there, as James Ingram once sang......

[Just A Nobody]

Clearly! With 9370 views it says things I don't want to know.

Go ahead and unleash Coop ... it is good for the soul!

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

Thanks for passing on the e-mail data. We all know that Code Pinkos and company are are out to undermine our troops morale that are taking it to the enemy. Their strategy worked 30 years ago. We must not let it succeed this time as our very survival is at stake.

My little AZZ HATS sign was a tip of the hat in response to a note that BillF received wherein a soldier currently healing in WRAMC referred to the lefties as A**HATS

[Dutchgirl]

This isn't a bump...it's a drive by saluting...

[Just A Nobody]

I could come but one of those pinkos would go home wearing an azz kicking.

Don't worry about it ... come on out!!! They are more fun to laugh at than beat up.

Kristinn and BillF keep things under control with a matching set of depleted uranium neck collar and chain to discourage any from roaming too far off the curb. I think they ordered them from Halliburton after Buford made a run for the other side last week.

I think I saw a new case of duct tape floating around as well. So ... no excuses then, huh? ;*)))

[Just A Nobody]

Ohhhh...awwww!!!

Thank you so very very much Dutch! This one is going in my favorites!!!

p.s. Love your tag .............. lol!

[Coop]

With 9370 views it says things I don't want to know.

It was a thread on the Freedom Walk. But it just goes to show how much more interest is sparked here by T&A or macabre subjects as opposed to defense of our freedom.

[Deetes]

Amen , bump. bump bump.

[Just A Nobody]

I realize that now. I should have finished my sentence.
.....about some FReepers!

[loudzoo]

Thanks BillF,

DC Chapter is doing great work. You all have my thoughts and prayers.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Excellent point. We definitely shouldn't block them. I'm also not sure I'd want to sacrifice a car. I don't think otherwise there would be an issue with parking cars in designated spaces that were on that corner but not blocking their area.

I remember the week they decorated a bystander car.

[Aquakat]

BUMP

[conservatrice]

bump-o-matic

[Our man in washington]

Coop, I am offended and won't even justify your posting with a bump.

Oops, I just did.

And I'm totally kidding, Coop! Great post!

[EmilyGeiger]

Do you think one of you could ping the Day in the Life freepers to this thread? What this group of people do is very important and they are wanting the thread to be continually bumped in order to get a good crowd on Friday. Thank you. :)

[patton]

well, exscuse me! I was in Boston!
