Today at noon, FReepers of the DC Chapter converged to the front of the National Press Club in Washington, DC.
Traitor, friend of anti-American dictators everywhere, founder of Communist-front International Action Center (IAC), former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark spewed his usual slanders against our great and good country and its great and good military and President.
Clark had previously spoken these lies at numerous of the antiwar protests organized by IAC-offshoot Communist-front International Action Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER).
Free Republic’s DC Chapter has repeatedly opposed ANSWER beginning shortly after September 11, 2001 when they opposed U.S. action against Afghanistan.
The honor roll of attendance at today’s gathering of eagles: Angelwood, Kristinn, and BillF. (Although a larger turnout is always nice, the event was at a bad time and we only became aware of this event two days ago. Under the circumstances, we were pleased to be able to hold any FReep.)
The traitor’s speech was scheduled for 12:30. I arrived shortly after 12 followed shortly by Angelwood. A few minutes later Kristinn arrived.
About 12:20 or so, we had not seen Clark and we believed that he likely had arrived before us, perhaps by an hour or more. Angelwood and I continued holding signs, while Kristinn went inside the building. Before leaving with copies of David Horowitz’ new pamphlet Who is the Peace Movement?, he left some copies of the pamphlet for us to hand out.
Just after Kristinn went into the building, a bus pulled up and quite a few people got out wearing tags saying “Close Up” (I think that it is related to a CSPAN operation). Many were interested in our signs and engaged us in discussion about Clark. They asked for copies of the Horowitz pamphlet and we handed out quite a few.
As other people passed by we shouted “Ramsey Clark traitor is inside now,” “Defender of Milosovich,” “Friend of Saddam,” “Friend of Castro,” “Supporter of every anti-American dictator on the planet,” and similar phrases.
Quite a few people were supportive. Some were indifferent, but I saw no negative reactions.
One guy, possibly a Cuban-American, discussed Castro’s tyranny and he expressed disgust at Clark’s support for Castro.
A guy in a group of men dressed in business suits passed by when we were quiet and said “you should be chanting.” We immediately chanted “IMPEACH RAMSEY CLARK, THE TRAITOR.” The guy indicated his approval.
My sign, based on Sauropod’s suggestion, said::
IMPEACH RAMSEY CLARK – ANTI-U.S. TRAITOR with Free Republic’s web address below.
I’ll let Angelwood describe her signs, some of which were also held by Kristinn.
Kristinn came out of the building about 10 minutes after going in with copies of Horowitz’ pamphlets. He had handed out quite a few while inside.
About 20 minutes after Kristinn returned, I left the scene as a CNS reporter was talking to Angelwood and Kristinn.
Before discussing Kristinn’s activities inside the building, I’ll mention some background. A week back, I had noted in an FR post that Kristinn had appeared on MSNBC’s Scarborough Country. Together with other DC FReepers, Kristinn FReeped the White House Press Corps and handed out Garofalo awards. He then stunned all with his great appearance on Fox and Friends.
In my post I asked Kristinn “When do you land on the carrier?”
In an audacious move, Kristinn had walked up to Ramsey Clark inside the building and handed him the Horowitz pamphlet. I’ll let Kristinn describe the details of handing the pamphlets to Clark and other Communist traitors.
It may not have been landing on a carrier, but I’m in shock and awe.
Kristinn, what cojones! You do freepers proud!
International Action Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER)
Who is the Peace Movement? (this is the Front Page Magazine website with pamphlet listed on page, the link to pamphlet did not work)
If this doesn't work, I'll be tempted to violate FR's rules against violence by giving my computer a warm boot right out the windows.
