Need to add homage to Gathering of Eagles this year to the Freeper Lore.
GOE (Gathering Of Eagles) - A huge push back against the left on the war on terror (specifically Iraq). Veterans Groups, Move America Forward, FreeRepublic, Michelle Malkin, HotAir, etc etc. organized themselves and mobilized to Washington DC to protect various memorials (especially, the Vietnam Memorial) and counter the left, which had defaced memorials in previous war protests, on March 17, 2007 (Iraq War anniversary). Despite having professional PR firms etc involved, the moonbats eked out a paltry 10,000, and were faced by about 30,000 'eagles' (in a rapid grassroots effort). Local GOE rallies were also held in support of the DC rally for those unable to travel to the big show.
