DNME, the Trooprally’s and their team of DC Chapter Freepers have been fighting back more than 99.9% of us who are mostly keyboard warriors.

Their group has spent close to 300 straight Friday nights in front of Walter Reed counter-protesting the hateful leftists who, years ago, began protesting the war and the military from Georgia Avenue out front. Our conservative bretheren go out there EVERY SINGLE FRIDAY NIGHT for up to four and a half hours, no matter the conditions.

While most of us are watching television, surfing the Internet, eating at restaurants, going to parties or visiting friends on Friday nights, those folks stand in front of Walter Reed for the purpose of letting our wounded warriors know that the hateful Code Pink types don’t speak for all America.

Their reward is the cars that drive by, driven by everyday AMERICANS who take a moment to honk, wave and even stop to talk. Their reward is a visit from wounded soldiers who make a trek out in front of the hospital just to say how grateful they are that SOMEONE is on their side, and that SOMEONE is saying thank you by interposing themselves between the leftists and the wounded.

They are out there in broiling heat, freezing sleet or snow, rain, you name it. And then, you know what? They get up the next morning and counter-protest the Leftists in Olney.

I suspect you didn’t intend for your post to carry the message that it did...the Trooprally’s and their like don’t stick up for themselves, they are too humble to do so. But I think you have them all wrong, my FRiend. If other Americans like you and I could do 20% of what those folks do on a weekly basis, we wouldn’t be in the situation we are today.

I hope your comments about spineless behavior were not directed at the Trooprally’s and their friends because they are part of the few who are actually showing their spine and doing the heavy lifting.

Thank you for supporting the group.

We part-timers are best able to do that!
