Angelwood, thank you for the report full of wonderful images of the anti-antiwar freep. Freepers were valiant and articulate to a degree that makes it rank among the great freeps of all time. Congratulations to all who braved the mob and the cold.

[Taxman]

LOL! "Half a peace sign."

Scumbags.

[Marylander]

I heard your call to Hannity yesterday. You made a great point about the antiwar rant, "Hey, we're patriots, too." Sean sounded off on it very nicely, too.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

I also got really angry at vets marching in the parade.

The only reason you know they were Vets was because the said they were. They offered on bono fides. Next time ask 'em what their service number and MOS was.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thank you for your courageous stand and excellent report, as always.

"Let the Inspections Work," the main thrust of this campaign, is a simple, direct slogan aimed at mainstream support."

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Next Tuesday evening, we will learn that the inspections have indeed worked, and Sodom'sInsane is in Material Breach, and the RATS' dollars will be WASTED!!!

RATS're Ignorant Dolts...and the Sheeple are catching on...MUD

"The only reason you know they were Vets was because the said they were. They offered on bono fides. Next time ask 'em what their service number and MOS was."

EXACTLY, JV's Bro!!! I wonder what percentage of these "VIET NAM VETS" were LYING Like Slick Willie?!!

Any Viet Nam Vet worth his salt wouldn't be joining ANSWER's Blatant Attempt to provide propoganda material for the Axis Of Evil, IMHO...MUD

[Mudboy Slim]

Heh heh heh...and that patriotic lady there could probably whup 9 outta ten of the pencil-necked geeks acting soooo tuff at the RATrally last Saturday...LOL!!

RATS are Poltroons...spineless, spiritless PUNKS!!

IMHO, of course...MUD

[FreeTheHostages]

[Humidston]

FRIDAY: FYI... I got this email from N.O.W. tonight. (Yes, I'm signed up for emails so I can keep up with their latest rants.)

It looks like they're going to hold a little sidewalk rally next week. I've taken the liberty of pasting info here - Just in case anyone in D.C. is interested.

What: Pro-Title IX Sidewalk Rally
When: Wednesday, January 29 at Noon
Where: Downtown Washington, D.C., outside the Hotel Washington, 515 15th Street NW, between Pennsylvania and F Sts.

I'm still working on my report, which will include pictures. :)

[L_Von_Mises]

Great pictures. They came out really well. I guess you had a really good vantage point from the steps so your pics didn't get washed out by the sun as many of mine did. I went through them a couple of times and probably will a couple more. There were a lot of flags and signs that I didn't remember (I was probably too busy trying to engage the commies). One that struck me was the gimmee, gimmee, gimmee (you know, money for welfare, not for war) with the logo for the Socialist Workers Party taking up about a quarter of it. I guess the Dumbo party is socialist afterall. You did a good job of capturing a lot of the black flags and anti-Israel, Pro Palestinian signs as well. Good Job!!

Regarding your comments on being outnumbered, it was very disconcerting but I still think we had an impact. Maybe not with the protesters (most are hopeless) but with all of the media coverage. There is now discussion about who really is behind these protests. Of course, most conservatives have jobs and a life. To the majority of these protesters this is their job and life. Their only other commitment is probably to get to a mailbox to get their check from Daddy Warbucks or Uncle Sam.

Judging by the expressions on the faces of those vets that did show up I could see the hurt in their hearts seeing the continued onslaught of these traitors and noting that the vets did not get the turnout they had hoped for. Seeing that just strengthens my resolve even more to do what I can to expose them for what they are and heckle them at every opportunity.
