D.C. Chapter's Rumble at Rummy’s LIVE THREAD

Posted on 06/05/2004 12:07:00 PM PDT by StayAt HomeMother

Despite the wet day, some DC Chapter and other FReepers are out there again today. As Mudbay Slim wrote on a previous thread (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1147442/posts?page=1), “Only evil Leftists melt in the rain...come rain or shine, sleet or snow, FReepers will be there!”

Partly because of the weather, the Lafayette Park gathering was not well attended this morning. Maybe 500 from the left, and a hundred of them skipped the ANSWER program to watch the FReepers instead.

BillF said Fox and local channel 7 (ABC) interviewed Kristinn, who was also preparing for a possible CNN interview. Anglewood reports AP was out taking pictures and the ANSWER staff kept trying to get their protesters to go back to the rally site and stay away from the FReepers.

Here are the morning on-scene FReepers as reported to me:

They are Rummy's house now. More to follow...

Thank you all for the reports. Really wanted to be there today but it just didn't work out.

I find it absolutely amazing how such a small band of Freepers can single handedly deminish what was, in the past, bands of thousands.

You D.C. Freepers are helping this Country simply by shouting the truth in the face of evil and lies.

"Some of them rant away, shouting and spitting out their venom or their sound bytes - trying to accomplish what, I don't know ---- but it is almost amusing to watch."

When I have the pleasure and time to join you all in D.C., I do the same thing. Sit back and watch them.

As mature as I am, I still don't get it. What are these people really protesting? Is it America? Is it Bush? Is it Freedom?

I have found these people just to be preaching to NOTHING. They seem to have no purpose except to shout.

ALL FReeps are good FReeps!

The Gipper would be proud -- you stood up against the Forces of Evil, and prevailed! Now, we have to go out and win one more for the Gipper in November.

They'll be even smaller next time. A lot of their marchers got their first reality check that ANSWER doesn't hold the majority view in this country.

Nice job, SAHM. I'm glad to see all arrived home encouraged by the experience. It was really a thrill to meet the men from Iraq. They seemed in good spirits and eager to have their stories reported. We probably should have told them how hard it is to get any press coverage of things that might reflect favorably on America.

After seeing the men in the flesh, those in the crowd who were well-meaning peaceniks had to be thinking maybe they should put a little more thought into their affiliations.

Apparently so...and the Iraqis wanted to meet and talk to him, but he refused to come our way.
