Gael Murphy's (Code Pink) Blood Pressure Hits a New High

This is a quick post to provide an after action report for the DC Chapter Freep of Code Pink at Walter Reed. It was a night to remember and I did not want to keep everyone waiting. There will be a full report with all pictures later on in the week.

It was a normal but cooler night as everyone arrived for another evening of countering Code Pink. Down the street came the sound of a single motorcycle. The Rolling Thunder scout arrived to announce the news of more bikes to follow. The first scout went accross the street to talk with the Code Pinkos. The police came rolling down the street. We are not sure the exact details of what went on over there but it was not pretty in pink (land). The scout was asked by the police to come back over to our side.

The rest of the Rolling Thunder group arrived and they parked right in front of Code Pink. Gael Murphy had a fit and the police were very nice. They ask the guys from Rolling Thunder to move to our side. The bikers walked back over to their side a few times just to taunt them. When they went over to the otherside we would chant, "Hug A Vet".

Gael had a group meeting at the end and she was mad as a wet hen.

I just came home after the weekend at the hospital. He is complaining of shortness of breath and he may need a second operation to clear the remaining infection so we are not out of the woods yet. We appreciate your prayers.

Use the force

[Landry Fan]

I did use the Force, the second time. I don't know if it worked.

I wish I were there, but I had duty at Sector Baltimore the next day... God bless the Coast Guard!

Next Friday I don't have duty and I'll see how my health holds up.

Vets Group Declares War on Protesters

bmw - while I think Newsmax may have stretched a little in that headline, I followed it throught to the actual Resolution 169 from the AL and it looks pretty good.

Here is an excerpt:
American Legion Resolution 169 Booklet (in PDF format) from pages 21 & 22
Antiwar groups began demonstrating against military action even before U.S. troops began to strike back at our enemies. The antiwar group Act Now to Stop War and End Racism actually held its first antiwar rally on Sept. 29, 2001– before U.S. forces began the liberation of Afghanistan, before the first terrorist was jailed at Guantanamo Bay, before the war in Iraq, even before the fires stopped smoldering in Manhattan...

...No one in the Legion family wants to stifle the right to public dissent; however, it is fair to ask those who disagree with this war to do so responsibly.Opponents of the War on Terrorism can voice their dissent in several ways that are not harmful to the troops or helpful to America’s enemies.

This may deserve its own post

Any chance someone can turn his robe pink, or would that be too much pink?
