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 much tin-foil do you think they have to wrap around their heads to get such a level of oxygen deprivation that they see things that aren't there?
Maybe we should sell of some of our Halliburton, Bechtel, Fox News stock and invest in aluminum company stock?
Needs to be said again!
Bump!
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.
Rotten, sick, twisted, perverted LIARS!
Dear Code Pink Wackos,
You don't give a damn about the welfare of these brave soldiers (without whom you would have no right to protest). You are out there because you hate America. All the lies in the world you may spew cannot deflect from the truth of what you are. We have not, nor will we ever "forget" our troops. We would, however, like to forget YOU! NO GO AWAY!!!
NOW go away, even.
Bahahahaha!! The bad press is getting to them.
Expose the terrorist supporting PINKOS!!!!
See you there.
Are YOU KIDDING ME!?
This could be the crowning opportunity for FReepdom's DC chapter to discredit her AND Code Pinko all at once and in a very big way.
IF Rolling Thunder would kindly show up with even more reinforcements...carrying flags and spiritedly singing the Army, and Navy Anthems and the Marine "Battle Hymn of the Republic" along with out national anthem and "America the Beautiful" to drown the shrill wenches out...think how overwhelming and inspiring a statement that would make!
the pinkies need an involuntary overdose of the "patriotism drug" to send them into fatal paroxysms of leftist/communist misery...
Cindy Bin Sheehan just needs a prefrontal lobotomy, some electroshock therapy, and regular dosages of Thorazine.
A.A.C.
...Maimed for a Lie, Enlist and Die for Haliburton...
She's nuts! Why doesn't she just swim to Cuba and leave America the hell alone?
So, Cindy Sheehan's round-the-bend choo-choo is chugging into Washington, eh?
Man, I have got to find a babysitter!
Sheehan has gotten into bed with the lowest of the low when she joined the former Black Panther in Louisiana. She really needs to rethink her position and who she is associating with. The Code Pinkos are supporters of the same people who killed her son. They have never met a communist or dictator they didn't love.
HD?
Dignified?!!!
You think we're about to break them?
ping to #51
This weekend is going to be very interesting in DC. On Saturday, the Mall from 7th to 14th street will be covered with huge tents full of people at the National Book Festival.
I guess Code Pink, ANSWER, NION, et al will claim that these thousands of festival participants are there to End the War.
Yes, please do!
tgslTakoma,
Great job! We'll be there Friday ...
Yep! Funny ... the Book Festival on the Mall is hosted by First Lady Laura Bush. Hhhhmmmm ... think it was a coincidence that Code Pink and their sycophants chose the same weekend?
