My fellow DC Freepers,
Click here to read the article that the Harpers Ferry Panhandle Chapter will be handing out at our rally Saturday in Martinsburg, WV: SEATTLE - Large anti-war protests come with a hefty price tag Money is needed to rent or buy stages, sound systems, permits and portable toilets, and tabs often run as high as $200,000 per demonstration - much more than the average grassroots peace group will ever have in its coffers. So who is picking up the tab? "The major anti-U.S. government demonstrations are organized by people who have been around for a long time, particularly the Workers World Party, ...and you know the rest Kristinn. It's a great article and I would highly recommend it for distribution. The printer-friendly version fits nicely on two sides of a single sheet of paper with a nice bit of spare room at the bottom to insert WWW.FREEREPUBLIC.COM . Now go get 'em guys!

PS: I'm not abandoning the DC Chapter - just recruiting support troops.

Yeah, but the Worker's World Party is just a group of a few people in NYC domestically. If they've got $ to fund this stuff, you best believe it's coming from their foreign government sponsors.

Which would explain why ANSWER keeps having someone from North Korea's "Ministry of Truth" on stage at these rallies.

I think it's great that you're doing one Saturday in Martinsburg, WV. I'll be too busy leafletting here in DC that day to come, but I'd love to come to one of your rallies some other time. Great that you've started the chapter!! That's not "abandoning" us: that's building on success. :)
