BI-COASTAL FREEP OF LEFTIST PROTEST AGAINST FOX NEWS
me | April 3, 2003 | BillF

Posted on 04/03/2003 1:50:00 PM PST by BillF

Today at noon, FReepers of the DC Chapter left their barracks to oppose Code Pink and associated leftist malcontents.

About 30 leftists had gathered to protest Fox News at the Fox office near Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.

Starting the thread now & will add to later.

Our California cousins, also known as FReepers in the San Francisco area, are invited to add comments to this thread about their activities in the West Coast theatre of operations in opposition to the Code Pinkos attack on the SF Fox office.

Completely outclassing the leftists was a gathering of eagles. Intrepid FReepers Angelwood, Free the Hostages, Kristinn, Jimmy Valentine’s Brother, and BillF made the attendance honor roll.

Among the signs of the FReepers were:

FOX ROCKS CODE PINK STINKS

PEACENIKS QUAGMIRE FOX RATINGS HIGHER

CODE PINK LOVES (i.e., red heart) PETER ARNETT

(with names and photos of Code Pink leader Medea Benjamin and Peter Arnett both labeled as traitors)

“ANTI-WAR” MOVEMENT IN A QUAGMIRE

All of the above signs also included FR’s internet address.

Angelwood had a great sign with Chevy Chase doing the news from Saturday Night Live and with the caption SADDAM IS STILL DEAD.

Free the Hostages had a very inventive sign or costume. She wore a box labeled on two sides. One side said “I ONLY WATCH CNN . . . WHY IS IT SO DARK IN HERE?”. Other side said “I GET MY NEWS FROM THE NY TIMES . . . LOW LEVEL ANONYMOUS SOURCES.” On each side, the second, lower phrase on each side was in smaller letters.

Among the slogans:

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS

ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT IN A QUAGMIRE

CODE PINK IS THE MEDEA DIVISION [Medea is the adopted first name of Code Pink founder Baghdad Benjamin)

JVB shouted several times: YOU TOOK THE BROWN ACID AT WOODSTOCK . . . YOU’RE STILL STUCK IN THE SIXTIES and YOU’RE STRUCK IN A 60s QUAGMIRE.

Several of us were interviewed by the press.

Ah, yes, that old watermelon (green on the outside/red on the inside) Medea/Medusa Navratilova-lookalike gadfly.

For those who don't know, the "Women in Black" are a pro-Palestinian group.

Next time you see them, chant, "We have Saddam airport! Neener-neener-neeee-nerrrr!"

My point is it would have set them off for sure!

Next time, if you want to set them off, wear a "FRY MUMIA" T-shirt.

YOU TOOK THE BROWN ACID AT WOODSTOCK

ROFLMAO. That's definitely a sign or chant for use at the next counter-rally.

I have found someone who can give the belly lady a run for her money. She has promised an appearance on the April 12th.

Honey, she followed me home....can we keep her?

In DC last time, the Code Pink folks started off with a Pagan Prayer Circle.

They've stopped scrificing goats. They were making mistakes and losing too many members.....

BRAVO DC and SF FReepers!

Just curious... exactly where is the FNC studio in DC? I'm always trying to figure out where they are, while looking out their window toward the Capitol. Thanks!

Medusa Benji is really pathetic, isn't she. I feel the need to feed her, she always looks so miserable and sickly.

FoxNews is located at 400 N. Capitol Street, N.E. -- the same building that houses MSNBC and C-SPAN.

You are closer than you think. You're a whole new front in the war against the left. All you have to do it speak out, stand on a street corner. You'll soon be joined by others. I read such stories about Freepers here every day.

Welcome home.

"Maybe we should take the protests to THEIR doors:
National Office:
39 W. 14 St., #206, NY, NY 10011 · (212) 633-6646
info@internationalanswer.org · www.internationalanswer.org

Washington DC Office:
