The purpose of this thread will be to pool our resources and ideas to counter the attempted take-over of our nation’s capital and foreign policy.
It is not the place to voice your disgust with those that feel it is necessary to present a street presence to counter the dregs of society seeking to undermine and destroy our country and our leadership. If that is your purpose, please move along.
On January 27, 2007, Thunder90 posted a thread to advise us of the next convergence on our nations capital by the anti-American hate-mongers. This gives us SEVEN WEEKS to organize and strategerize.
While reading Thuder90’s thread and the AAR from the DC Chapter’s counter demonstration last Saturday, January 27th, you will find inquiries in regard to transportation, hotels, metro lines and the like. There were also a number of Freepmails discussing these issues.
For those interested in making our presence known in Washington, DC on March 17, 2007 please feel free to offer what you can.
· If you are driving and have room for others, let us know the general vicinity you will begin the trip. I have an offer now of someone willing to pay for half the gas to share a ride.
· We already have offers of rooms/beds for those that need a place to stay. We can always use more!
· Perhaps you can rally enough interest in your area that renting a van or chartering a bus would be worthwhile. Let us know and we will see if that can be arranged.
· Those that live in the greater DC area or will have a vehicle at your disposal may be able to help shuttle folks from hotels or metro stations.
· We may need wheel chairs and those to push them.
· Those that have blogs, talk shows, columns or access to others that do – please share!
Any specifics should be discussed via FReepmail!
The threads referenced above can be found here:

(D.C. Chapter Report on 1/27/07)
There are no formal plans at this time. Why plan a big rally/counterdemonstration if no one plans to attend?
Rest assured the DC Chapter faithful, with assistance from local citizens and troops, will be in DC on March 17th between 11:00 AM and however long it takes to ensure our presence is known.
The question is – WILL YOU BE THERE?
What is certain at this point is, at The Wall, we stand guard.
BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAHAAAAAAA
Sure thing!
Yes! May I also add that the 90 represents ONLY those that have committed via FReepmail or on THIS thread!
I have neither the time nor the energy to scroll through the umpteen threads there now are.
You're on the list! ;*)
Sounds good!
As I told R. Scott... the 90 represents ONLY those that have committed via FReepmail or on THIS thread!
If some of them are vets and are being counted elsewhere, I have no idea. As soon as I found time I had planned to FReepmail you and trooprally to advise you of what I just told R. Scott...I have neither the time nor the energy to scroll through the umpteen threads there now are.
Having removed myself from a number of ping lists this week in an attempt to remain on top of things, I have found that it did not work! ;*(
The Freep list is the only one I am on - but several friends are on other lists
As I read other threads and see someone coming, I ask them to tell you.
Hope that is working and helping.

I don't know how you're keeping this all straight! But my comment was based on my referring folks from other non-freeper sites to this thread so they could keep in the loop. I thought I spotted 2 "cross-overs" but I'm not sure. [I'm using the same screen name on the forums to make it easy to be identified.] I apologize for any confusion I've caused.

I may have family and friends coming from your area. I'll keep you posted.
I have seen pings from you both, but have been gone so much lately that I have no time to respond and/or ask the folks what they wanna do. ;*)
If they understand the cause and are committed to attending I had hoped they would let me know. Certainly some have, but short of posting their names, which I won't do, we have no way of knowing.
Fantastic!!
:-)
Nope...sorry! I'm planning to pack JAN up in my car after Sunday the 18th. I need her much more then you. Too bad so sad. :)
LOL! You may want to see my house before you claim me. ;*)
Some things just take priority.
Speaking of that....how much time have you spent eating at your computer today Freeper warrior? You did a great job. This is gonna be good. I just know it. God Bless you.
ROTF!
