Rain Day Festival in PA: first planned Vets For The Truth / Boot Murtha & Operation Street Corner (OSC) activity
by OSC District 12 Exec. Director Nikki A.C. Sheppick
We enjoyed ourselves immensely that this special Annual Greene County event, which has been taking place here in Pennsylvania since 1874. The day was cloudy with the threat of rain - but it never did - at least in Waynesburg, PA, during the Rain Day festivities. The VFTT - OSC was blessed with a nice corner space and the town officials were not in any way non-supportive of our right to free speech about our Pro-Troops, Pro-Veterans, Pro-America position. We had many visitors, friendly and otherwise, most who wanted information, some respectful and wishing to discuss the issues, one who was rude, and many veterans who wanted to speak their piece about the need of Murtha to shut off and not politicize the troops while they are on the ground in combat territory. 98% of those who stopped and spoke to us were supportive of our efforts to get the truth out about Congressman John Murtha. Anyone wishing to make their own Operation Street Corner display and hit the streets, events, or anywhere contact me, Nikki Sheppick, at osc@bootmurtha.com Or visit the website www.operationstreetcorner.com to learn more. (It's easy!) I have included photos of my own display (see below). There are A LOT of people here in John Murtha's Congressional District 12 who need to see, hear, and know the truth about this mid 70's-year-old, 32-year career politician who is has been afflicted with "loose lips (that) sink ships"... all because he has political aspirations to move up in the Democratic Party. And let me add the great news: The official VFTT-OSC mailer has gone out to multitudes of veterans in PA, and beyond! If you are a vet in District 12 and have not received your mailer, please contact me and I will send you one pronto! This is a tremendous endeavor we have undertaken. Vets For The Truth / Boot Murtha is appreciates the generous $$$ contributions we've received from people all across the country. To all of you, we say "THANK YOU!" We appreciate your involvement so much! John Murtha is not just a PA District 12 problem. He is an all-American problem. His misguided views hurt our country and encourage our enemies. This man needs to go... BOOT MURTHA! Sincerely, Nikki A.C. Sheppick OSC District 12 Executive Director (Operation Street Corner) osc@bootmurtha.com Photos from the Rain Day Festival July 29, 2006 in Waynesburg, PA The OSC (Operation Street Corner) Executive Director in John Murtha's district 12, Nikki A.C.
