As long as I don’t have to take the metro
Hundreds if not thousands of We the People carrying torches in front of Congress on the night of 9/11 will be an image not long forgotten.
“...nice-lookin’ M1...”
Thanks! That’s nice of you to say. The girls are mad at me because the pic is unflattering of them but the M1 is not sensitive.
I particularly like the way you incorporate close paraphrases from fundamental American documents into your rallying cry.
This Saturday, the 27th, at 2:00 P.M., I am one of the invited speakers for a rally in Ripley, Ohio, an old Ohio River town about 40 miles east of Cincinnati. My hope is to not only stir the grass roots to the defense of liberty, but to give the audience the tools to rip the ideological pretenses of the Marxist influenced demagogues and charlatans inside the Beltway to shreds. It is not only the American heritage they trash and dishonor, it is all the lessons garnered from human experience throughout the historic period that they ignore.
What we confront is beyond mere evil, beyond mere stupidity, beyond merely a demagogic power play. It combines all of the above in a movement that would have been given very short shrift by the brave, wise men, who founded America. God grant us the insight to reawaken their spirit and understanding, despite the corrupt media, academia and bureaucracy arrayed against us. America needs to turn these usurpers away from the seats of power.

Jim that was a great post!!!! We plan to attend but it will depend on what the hurricanes are doing at that time since that is right at the height or hurricane season. Hopefully it won’t be an active season and we will see you in DC.
Remember that you could always book your room now at the Sheraton and if necessary cancel later. Here’s hoping we have another season without problems! Hubby and I plan to be in DC even if we have a storm coming! We feel it is always best to be away when one hits anyway! Jean St.Pete,FL
We also plan to attend but we are living in Houston/Kemah TX and Ike got us last season we also will have to see what the hurricane season brings our way at that time and pray it will be all clear. As many of you know our home and boat was damaged and boat was lost last season (see my profile) still a little shell shock here. Been to 2 D.C. events with the FReepers would not miss it.
Exactly! I was thinking the other day that the military need to be reminded (just in case) that they are sworn to protect and uphold THE CONSTITUTION, and not any elected or appointed official. (just in case...)
HOTEL GROUP RATE DEADLINE AND CONVENTION TICKET SALES GOAL:
SHERATON HOTEL GROUP RATE DEADLINE: The FR Group rate will be honored from 9/7 - 9/14. Rooms must be reserved with the Sheraton by Friday, August 21, 2009 to receive the convention group rate of $116. After that, the Sheraton will not guarantee room availability.
CONVENTION TICKET SALES GOAL: There is NO DEADLINE on Convention Ticket Sales. However, we do have a goal to reach by July 1st. PLEASE HELP BY PURCHASING YOUR CONVENTION TICKET NOW AND HELP US REACH OUR GOAL! Thanks so much for your help!
I couldn’t agree more Jim! Unfortunately I won’t be able to march in D.C. but I do look forward to seeing the Tea Party Express in Hartford on September 11th.
Hubby and I plan to be in DC even if we have a storm coming! We feel it is always best to be away when one hits anyway!
________________
We evacuate if the order goes out but we have 2 homes and a business to secure, no easy task. One of the homes is right on the open Atlantic. The boat has to be taken to the marina and pulled out. All business and personal vehicles either driven out or placed on highest ground. Everything outside has to be taken in and secured. It takes at least 2 days to prepare. If there is a storm approaching, no way would we leave. It would be impossible.
Remember that you could always book your room now at the Sheraton and if necessary cancel later.

I think we will do that.
We should be OK for the convention, early September is usually pretty quiet just in case, hubby and I are going to put our hurricane shutters up for the week we will be in DC.
yeah right ... i can just see myself trying to walk that thru security getting out of o'hare
i am, however, working on a multi-piece flagpole made of pvc thinwall for my gadsden flag that will break down and fir my carry-on
“America is a capitalist society. A free society. Our constitution guarantees our God-given unalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, and no Marxist dictator is going to be allowed to deny us what God has granted and courageous patriots before us fought and died to preserve!”
BUMP! :)
I know, I’m in Homestead - just hedging bets we’ll get hit late Sept. early October...
