Vietnam veterans and patriotic Americans from across the country will be rallying in our nation's capital to show support for their brothers and sisters in arms as they fight the war on terror and prepare to defend us from outlaw regimes like Iraq and North Korea.
The members of MOVEOUT! are "insulted by the leftist Sixties retreads and wannabes who are raising the specter of Vietnam in conjunction with the current "anti-war" demonstrations as if they are the sole voices from that era."
“These veterans are proud of their saving South Vietnam from communist occupation during the longest war in our history, a war that saw not one major battle lost, a war in which the enemy’s losses compared to ours were the most lopsided in history, a war that was lost by everyone BUT our troops AFTER they had gone,” stated Joel Kernodle, spokesman for MOVEOUT!
Mr. Kernodle, a retired CEO from Indianapolis, Indiana, served in Vietnam during 1967 as a Lance Corporal in the Marine Corps. Among the decorations he earned is the Purple Heart.
Following the rally, participants will gather along the march route of the "anti-war" group, IAC-ANSWER, at the Marine Barracks, 8th and I Street, SE, starting at 11 a.m. to peacefully exercise their right to observe a public parade and offer their opinion of it.

Question A.N.S.W.E.R.
The A.N.S.W.E.R. is "They're Commies"
Markers are for amateurs, real protesters use poater paint abd a foam brush. For a normal sized posterboard (22" by 28"), use that half inch or maybe one inch wide brush. Anything bigger is to big to make letters.
When you paint, put enough pressure on the brush that you drag the foam behind at a 90 degree angle. You may have to do two coats. Dark paint on neon posterboard works best. White on dark needs three or four coats.

Though it's an "anti-war rally", their FAVORITE sign is "Fuck Bush", so a little "Guck Fore Then Fry Mumia" might be appropriate, sore losers that they are.
