From the after-action report posted by daviddennis on www.amazing.com:
Support Our Troops Rally - 8 February 2003
Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, time to once again counter the leftists and support our fine military forces in their upcoming liberation of Iraq.
Our group of about 100 charming, chanting people was united in the cause, and morale was sky-high. Support from the public was excellent, with almost constant honking from the cars. A few big trucks joined in with their mighty blasts, an impressive sound indeed!
Ron was there with his Saddam mask and toy missiles which he enjoyed flaunting. I think we need to get someone to dress up as a weapons inspector to follow him around!
Homeless activist Ted Hayes was there as well. It might seem strange to have a homeless activist at a Republican rally, but it was clear that he was with us all the way.
Ted is a very interesting person. He brings a welcome breath of fresh air into the homeless debate by actually doing something about it on a personal level instead of waiting for our creaky old political institutions to help him. He has created a dome village as an alternative living environment for the homeless. I'm not sure how it works, and the web page, sadly, is not much help. But I like the overall idea very much even if I don't quite get the details yet.
Most of the signs were designed by the Young Republicans on a central theme. Unfortunately, I didn't see as much creativity in sign design as I've seen in previous events. Particular thanks must go, then, to the fellow who invented the "Saddam is a Smoking Gun" sign. Great work, guy!
All in all, it was an impressive event. There was total harmony, with complete silence from the left. Perhaps they were off in a more supportive venue...

Regarding Hillary on the Armed Services Committee - you are right on target. I was horrified when I learned about it. We can only hope the other Committee members keep her in line. Regards.

Need a sign around your neck, "Rodham Hussein".
You guys did great. I'm jumping up and down as I type.LOL!
Jennifer - from OCYR (who wrote the original press release that I posted here earlier in the week) said that she was VERY impressed to get a message on her answering machine from some guy in Washington, D.C. who saw the thread about HER rally on Free Republic......She said that he told her about the Patriot Rally that they held in D.C. last month, and that he was REALLY fired up about what we were doing out here in California!
I wonder who that "mystery caller from D.C." was...
Great pix and great job, RonDog ... you make a difference!Thanks!

Eagan [MN] man makes 'Liberate Iraq' signs to counter antiwar ones
The Minneapolis Star Tribune ^ | 2/8/03 | Eric Black
Posted on 02/08/2003 5:22 AM PST by Gothmog
Signs reading "Liberate Iraq" may be appearing in Twin Cities yards and windows thanks to a retired soldier who was getting frustrated with the proliferation of "Say No To War With Iraq" signs.Joe Repya, 57, of Eagan and his wife, Deb, were riding home from church a couple of Sundays ago thinking about how to respond to those "Say No" signs that have become popular with opponents of President Bush's Iraq policy. They decided to print 250 copies of their own sign. In addition to "Liberate Iraq," the sign encourages people to: "Support Our Troops, Call Your Congressperson!"
Repya, a retired lieutenant colonel and veteran of the Vietnam and Persian Gulf wars, is a military analyst on KSTP-AM radio, and he used one of his on-air appearances to announce that he would give out the signs in front of the station's St. Paul headquarters Friday morning.
Business was brisk, despite weather that was even more brisk. Most of his customers took multiple copies, saying they had relatives or neighbors who would display them.
Richard Olson of Faribault took two signs because he has two sons already posted to the Persian Gulf.
Mike Keenan of Shoreview took five signs, saying his brothers each wanted one. Keenan's reason for wanting the signs reflected a sentiment common among those who drove up to Repya's stand: "I've been riding around, seeing the anti-war signs, saying to myself, 'This is crazy.' But I had no way to fight back -- until now..."
