Save the Walter Reed Vigil
Appeal to Our Vets and Active Duty Soldiers Inside Walter Reed
The Walter Reed Vigil is a very discreet, dignified project taking place for two hours each Friday evening between 7 and 9 pm. We want those who have paid a terrific price for their country to be kept close to our hearts and minds. We don't call for you to be honored with parades and flags; others will do that. We are calling on the country to honor its veterans, active duty, reserves, and National Guard, with full benefits, commitment to long-term health care, and an economy that will provide good jobs, hopefully union jobs.
We understand from talking to some of those inside Walter Reed and other soldiers, the importance of the bonds you have with the comrades still in the field. You worry about them; you pray for them. So do we-that is why we want them home again. Whether you agree with that solution for the situation we are in-or not-we hope you can come to trust our sincerity. We try to prove it with the consistency of our little vigil outside the main gate of Walter Reed. You proved your commitment to your brothers and sisters in arms and to your country. We stand by the main gate each Friday evening for just those two hours as a commitment to you, that we will not forget you, and we don't want the rest of the country forgetting you either.
NOW TODAY, there are some who are so unsure of their own position that they feel they cannot tolerate even our small, short, weekly vigil. These people wave the American flag but they have lost the essence of what it means. They say God Bless The Troops but they don't understand what it is that you and your comrades fought for, are fighting for. Their goal is to silence us, and what will they do then?
HOW DID it come to this? That a small, humble vigil of ten people or so, should turn into such a storm? What are we saying that gets them so angry? Support Our Troops. Full Benefits for Our Vets. Bring the Troops Home.
PLEASE HELP US. If you believe we have a right to our simple vigil, if you can trust us not to ever do any of our veterans harm, please join us some time between 7 and 9 pm any Friday evening. Show the world that you don't believe in the lies told about us, that you believe in our right to have our vigil for our soldiers. Some of us are mothers of soldiers. Some are veterans. Some of us are simply citizens who want to do a little thing for people who have done so much for them.
Thank you.
How could you let me forget "SLANDER"
Would it sound like this? "RANT RANT WHINE WHINE LIE SNIFF BLAME SCREAM RANT CURSE WHINE WHINE CURSE LIE"
"What are we saying that gets them so angry?"
The $600,000.00 donation to the terrorists for starters...
What has rotted their brains? Lack of use?
There's something familiar about the way that guy writes those reports... he's got such an exaggerated spin of what actually occurred that he could be a Washington Post reporter.
They could do what they did on Mother's Day, when they told everyone else to hold a protest but didn't do anything themselves, even after suggesting using signs that say, "Mothers Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Killers".
They could post pictures of someone else's protest and claim they held a protest. Just like they did on Mother's Day.
Talk about "cheap rpopganda", The Pinkos used photos which were clearly NOT Mother;s Day. It showed people in coats, winter hats and mittens. Sheesh, they don't make Communist Propoganda like they used to, eh Comrade.
Yours in Peace, Rage, Solidarity, Direct Action and Love,
Raoul
Peace Out.
You're right!
Now that you mention it, you NEVER see Bruce Wolf and Dana Milbank together.
Or it could be the Brown Acid.
LOL!
The night before there will be many events going on in the Washington area for the many people coming into our city for this special time. Among these will be a special edition of the Walter Reed Vigil.
My spy inside Code Pink tell me that Cindy Sheehan is their special surprise for WRAMC on Friday.
Moonbat's out of the bag, grrrrrls!
Cindy who?
Thanks for the ping.
She'll only be there if she secures a huge media contingent to follow her every move...
Oh wait, they're only there to hold a vigil for better benefits... silly me.
She's not too busy trying to get the military to stop helping Katrina victims?
Never posted a barf bump before! Seems appropriate here. Asylums, come get your pinkos!
I sure do question their support of the troops..... however, I would like a reporter to go over there and take names, ranks and specific branches and dates of the veterans in the group conducting those "peaceful vigils"
Are there really verterans with code pink? or is that another lie?
If they really wanted to make these vigils produce some kind of results they would be advertising their vigils instead of doing it quietly with 10 people and hurtful signs facing the hospital.
surely there is a special place in hell for them.
Friday she's Code PinkO's super secret surprise weapon against Freepers. We are supposed to be surprised, dumbfounded, disillusioned, and converted to Leftist Moonbat-ism by her mere presence at WRAMC. (In their minds) This is to be the straw that causes all of us Freepers to give up our WRAMC counter-protests and surrender to the pinkos.
Maybe after we surrender, then Cindy can go save New Orleans from the US military.
LOL!
