WR Freep 161 -DC Chapter counters Code Pink's "false comfort of appeasement." Obama takes offense!
DC Chapter | 22 May 2008 | BufordP, Mrs Trooprally, PleaDeal

"Support the troops, bring them home now." "Money for wounded - not for war." Like "Free Tibet" bumper stickers, these are the "feel good" signs and phrases the apPeacers exclaim. What President Bush aptly described as the "false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history." 161 weeks running we've averted attention away from their bogus message.

Four guys on motorcycles from the Wounded Heroes Foundation came all the from Chicago to deliver 250 loaded backpacks to the patients at Walter Reed. They had 250 more to deliver to Bethesda the following day. They saw us on the street and decided to join us for about an hour or so.

The weather started out great. A little too windy to chance putting up the big MOAB. Later in the day the clouds rolled in and looked a little threatening. But we lucked out. It didn't rain.

Honor roll
Me, CindyTrueSupporter, Fraxinus, Lurker Bill, PleaDeal, PrezUSA222, RonGKirby, Satin_Patriot, [Mr and Mrs] Trooprally, VAFlagWaver, VictoryNY, kburi plus 4 guys from Wounded Heroes Foundation.

Lots more pictures at:

If you can't get to D.C. to join us but would like to do something for the wounded, you can find a wealth of ideas by FReepmailing Tom the Redhunter, Cindy-True-Supporter, VAFlagwaver, or PleaDeal.

Come join us every Friday night between the hours of 6:30pm to approx 9:30pm.

How 'bout "Money for wounded, not for agriculture subsidies to rich corporate farmers"?

Spirit - Just keeping the corners warm till you and others can make it out again. I see that Spiff, aka Carl Rove, might be joining us in July. Good deal.

Looking forward to seeing you both when you can make it.

I neglected to include kburi on the “Honor Roll”. Would you be so kind to add him to the list. Please and thanks!
