“Out of Iran” Moonbats’ Parade Rained On By Freepers, Eagles, Patriots - Wash. D.C. Aug. 2,2008
August 4,2008

Posted on 08/04/2008 5:21:40 PM PDT by trooprally

We gathered on the north side of Lafayette Square at 2:30 to scope out the terrain. The moonbats had permitted Lafayette Square and the sidewalk in front of the White House. Not that the less than 100 “Out of Iran” and pro-Palestinian groups needed that much space. All in all, their small group looked pitiful in light of their claim that a majority of Americans supported their anarchical views. Even when the moonbats persuaded some on lookers to march with them for a short time, they were pitiful.

For you D.C. FReepers, the regulars were there, Squeegie, Princess (in leather drag), Wuke, and Chief Grumpy from Olney. The head Code Pinkos were noticeably absent. I guess after their failed attempt to get us out of Iraq, they didn’t want to support another failed leftist cause.

We had all of Pennsylvania Avenue to spread out on. Our group of Patriots included 3DJoy, BufordP, Cindy_True_Supporter, DaveLoneRanger, Eager, Fraxinus, Pasquale, RongKirby, sauropod, [Mrs] Trooprally (aka [Mrs] T), myself and two Vets.

Pics and videos for this report were by [Mrs] T

As everyone knows, it takes only one FReeper or Eagle to rain on the moonbats parade, no matter how many moonbats show up. Our group did a great job today. We were able to walk around Pennsylvania Avenue, talking to the crowd, verbally attacking the moonbats’ message and just giving them a hard time. The only American flags on Pennsylvania Avenue this day were ours. We also had a lot of tourists who had their pictures taken with out signs. WE had a good time, but not sure if the moonbats did.

The moonbats held signs about “No Sanctions”. Well, the complain that Bush was a cowboy in Iraq, and now that he is going through the UN and has sanctions on Iran, they still complain. They just have an un-health hatred of Bush and the U.S.

Several of our signs were courteously provided by FReeper davidlachnicht who has a really great collection of posters for our use. Close ups of the ones we used are below.

The below poster was changed a little. We replaced the “!” after Iraq with a check mark, and put “IRAN ?” To the right. You can see Cindy_True_Supporter holding it in our group picture.



These are the other two we used:



There was one poster that no one used. It was from the Carter era. It said:
Made In America
Tested In Japan
Harm One Nation
We’ll Drop It On Iran

5+ Minute Video HERE on a new conservative site called EYEBLAST.TV. [Mrs] T had to swat away the bull horn from the loud mouthed Code Pinko when she got too close. There was an officer close by, watching the action, who told the Pinko to move back after [Mrs] T defended her space. We also had [Mrs] T’s back so if the officer didn’t step in, we would have. But [Mrs] T was holding her own.

And a 2+ Minute Video HERE

HERE is the photo file for the day.

BELOW: The Initial FReeper Roll Call of Patriots (L-R): Me, RongKirby, Fraxinus, Eager, BufordP and Cindy_True_Supporter. While holding the U.S./Marine flag pole, Eager had a lot of Vets come up to him and thank him for being there. While not a Vet himself, he was a forensic police office until being medically retired.



BELOW: The Final Roll Call of Patriots (L-R): Eager, RongKirby (also GoE), sauropod, Vet, DaveLoneRanger, Fraxinus, BufordP (in shadows), Vet, [Mr] Trooprally (me), Cindy_True_Supporter, 3DJoy. Pasquale had already left. Davidlachnicht signs were on the back of BufordP’s large signs and on several smaller poster size signs. The “No Nukes For Kooks” sign has a picture of Ahmadinejad.



BELOW: Moonbats/anarchists at their first “coming out of the closet” moment, heading from Lafayette Square to the White House sidewalk.



BELOW LEFT: RongKirby being not-so-covert. BELOW RIGHT: RongKirby: “Just having some fun officer. Can’t let them Protest Warriors all the fun”



BELOW LEFT: Sauropod and Pasquale. Pasquale’s sign says “Remember the Embassy - 1979" with a picture of the U.S. hostages. BELOW RIGHT: DaveLoneRanger and me.



BELOW LEFT: Two Vets who joined us taling to a moonbat. Yes, that is one of my good smoking cigars the Vet on the right has. BELOW RIGHT: BufordP coming into frame on left, Cindy_True_Supporter (dark shirt) standing next to 3DJoy with flag, and Sauropod with “How About” sign.



BELOW LEFT: The Palestinians were there. BELOW RIGHT: The idiots who don’t know that we are not at war with Iran.



BELOW: The leftist complained about Bush being a cowboy, so he had the UN put sanctions on Iran. And a blockade is still a non-violent option. Now they don’t even like what their beloved UN is doing.



BELOW LEFT: Chief Grumpy was there. (Right side of frame in dark shirt). BELOW RIGHT: Any one remember her from the Olney FReep on Sept. 06,2006? She had cut ‘n run long ago from there.

Yep, that’s what the idiots are saying. Not sure why, but they wouldn’t be idiots if they made sense.

It was good to have all of Pennsylvania Avenue to float around and talk the the ones that want to talk. Maybe we can change some minds. We usually do and that is why the moonbats’ numbers are down. We let the fence sitters who come out hear the truth.

Thanks from the D.C. gang.

Re your "I still don't get why the moonbats are protesting a war in Iran."

Maybe they have a bug in Chaney's war room.

nice pic. Eager did well for his first time. Unfortunately due to a stroke he has a hard time with shouting loud comments or quick come backs, but he stood his ground when confronted. And he enjoyed the Marines and soldiers that came up to him.

In big crowds, the U.S./Marine flag has become a rallying point for the D.C. Chapter members. It is highly visible.

As with all hard working conservatives, I can only give my support from D.C. But we know people in Texas that can help.

I’m sure the moonbats have infiltrated Texas.

we could enjoy Iran’s loss of nuke funding as the price of oil dropped.

It's not going to drop *that much*. In fact, over the medium haul, I expect we'll be doing well to keep it around $100, probably a bit more. They'll still have plenty of petro-euros to fund their nuke program.

Salted, the best. Just don’t salt then too early, we don’t want them melting like the slugs they are. :-))

" That little Norm Chomsky wannabe in the middle had better pause and listen POLITELY to those two vets."

Excuse me if I have misunderstood, but who is Norm Chomsky? Did you mean to say NOAM Chomsky perchance? :-)
