All in all, a fairly standard Friday evening of waving to honking cars; shouting our thanks to those exiting from Walter Read.
But who shows up after we just settled into our routine and ordered pizza?
Little Miss 50,000 KW herself Victory NY
Well the next thing you know every other car is leaning on their horn like theres no tomorrow. Were yelling our fool heads off. Took me till Monday to recover I tell you.
BufordP and mgta remind us that our wounded heroes on Friday nights ride this bus:
Thanks to The Aleethia Foundation. Who is The Aleethia Foundation? Glad you asked :
mgta writes, "Just wanted to update you on the Friday Night Steak Dinners for our injured service members recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. As you recall, Hal Koster, former co-owner of Fran OBriens Steak House, started free steak dinners back in October 2003 and in April 2006 the restaurant lost its lease at the Capital Hilton Hotel location. Your group and other military bloggers fought a great battle to assist in getting the word out in hopes to overturn the Hiltons decision and Hal greatly appreciated your efforts.
Hal founded The Aleethia Foundation, a fully volunteer organization and through many challenges Hal has been able to continue these dinners. Since May 5, 2006, it has been a moveable feast. Several venues including the Capitol Hill Club, City Club, Mortons Army Navy Club, Washington Golf and Country Club have offered space for the dinners. Corporations, AEI, Ambassadors of Italy, Australia, Taiwan, Israel, and many others have sponsor dinners at their facilities. On this Friday, October 17th, we will have our 5th year reunion of the Friday Night Steak Dinners, with many of our first time service members returning to DC."
We'll be back out at Walter Reed Friday night, October 18, from 6:30 until at least 9:30 at the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Elder Street, NW in Washington, D.C. The wounded warriors inside the hospital are heartened by the sight of ordinary citizens cheering for them and displaying our thanks for the service and sacrifice they've made on our behalf.
Directions to our Walter Reed freep location from the Takoma metro station,.
Thanks to BufordP for Keeping the BIG LIST: All DC Chapter Walter Reed FReeps

What, you mean Obambi has been lying about it? Well I never...
Just heard this on the Gallagher Show. This scares the daylights out of me. Reminds me of lies to move the masses in the earlier part of the 20th century. This is right out of an earlier playbook. The issues here go beyond an election...
Um, um, JVB, actually, I said, “Grab ‘em in a headlock and noogie their heads!”
For sure, at future McCain-Palin rallies, some moonbat will infiltrate the crowd and rather than shouting "Bush lied and people died" they'll shout racial epithets and/or calls for violence against Obama.
And JVB, Thanks for another great WR AAR. You look good with your Churchill cigar.
[Mr] T
Did not!
You specifically said an Indian head rub followed by the claw.
bump
Thanks Legs. Now, if I can just get Mrs. T to use that slimming lens.
Well, I said that too! And followed it up with, “NEENER, NEENER, YOU POOPYHEADS!” You must’ve missed the noogies part.
...on the phone with Mrs T, of course, since I wasn’t there.
[Mr] T (and who else would it be? [Mrs] T doesn't need the "slimmer eye")
Oh but they thought it and that is grounds enough to shut you down..... in the Obamanation
William shatner make a political statement on Boston legal episode.

I just got home from a Sarah Palin rally in Bangor. Not a soul asked to hang, shoot, or hurt Obama. Just vote him out.
How was the rally?
Oh Oh sounds like an AAR is in the works!
Of course no one said anything like that. It’sn only BHO’s in your face minions who are prone to violence.
Is it snowing there yet?
The rally was wonderful. There was a packed crowd with good music (Lee Greenwood). Sarah gave a great speech that was right on the money.
Did she bring up Ayers, Wright or Rezko?
