The DC Chapter is planning a counterprotest to the anti-war groups who will be gathering illegally at the White House on April 20. Care to join us? It would be great to see you again.

I'll definitely think about it. It would be good to see all you folks again. I keep an occasional eye out and am always impressed with all of you and miss my time up there a lot.

I support the actions we are currently taking but I am concerned over the future course and possible repercussions for the country in a very long term war atmosphere. Personally, I think a war on terrorism would be much more effective if done on a black ops basis. I know this kind of thing is going on but I fear politics have basically emasculated our capacity in this regard. I also think the recent drastic lowering of the bar on the use of nuclear weapons in this conflict is troubling.

With all that said, I know the mindset of the anti-war types who will be at the WH on the 20th and know I would find plenty to disagree with them on and have at least a 50% rational discussion with. Besides, I loved going to the March on the Pentagon they did way back when bill was bombing Kosovo. We had the same purpose in disagreeing with the bombing but entirely different reasons. It was a lot of fun shining some light on their delusions and group-think gobbledygook. This one would be different since I support what we're doing now but I'm sure it would still be fun.

Thanks for the offer and I'll definitely think about it. Tell Kristin and everyone else I said hello.
