DC Chapter ping! Please bump this thread to keep this on top of the latest posts.

FReepmail me to get on or off the list.

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 some leftists to stop these outrageous morale-damaging ("Maimed for a lie" was one of their signs) demonstrations at the hospital. At the very least, we can peacefully and lawfully minimize the effect of their psych-ops against the troops.

Our troops are bold enough to face bullets, mortars, IEDs, and suicide bombers. Are you bold enough to get out from behind the keyboard, FReep in person, and stand up for the wounded troops at Walter Reed?

If you're in the DC area and don't have family, work or medical considerations that keep you from FReeping, can you spare a few hours on a Friday night? Will you?

There are several additional upcoming activities to consider, beyond the usual Saturday afternoon FReeps at Olney, MD.

Fred Phelps and his cultists, best known for demonstrating against troops at their funerals, will be at Bethesda Naval Hospital on Saturday, April 29 from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm. FReepers will likely counter-protest, but details should follow later.

Later that day FReepers will gather to FReep the press and pundits gathering for the White House Correspondents Association dinner. Details should be posted in next few days, but the FReep will likely start in the late afternoon to early evening.

REAL GREAT POST!!

I think you out did yourself this time. Thanks, especially for the connection to the Olney thread. You were up late last night.

See you tonight.

Thanks for the ping, BillF. I've been told that we may also have some MilBloggers joining us at some point during the evening tonight, though many are planning to have dinner at Fran O'Brien's. Also, there are still a few places open, if you haven't registered to attend the first annual (hopefully) MilBlog Conference tomorrow, April 22nd, in downtown DC.
