Be careful guys.

Thanks, SAHM, for doing the thread.

I'm not able to be on site today, but tgslTakoma reported to me that there were 17 FReepers, et al. there and one more arrived before we finished our conversation. We have 18 at Rummy's house and more attendees are on their way.

It was noisy already and the FReepers were busy getting tgslTakoma's MOABs in place. Won't Brian Becker be surprised when he marches and the MOAB comes into view? LOL!

The MOAB (Mother Of All Banners) is two-sided and looks very impressive. I can't wait to see the pictures.

Thanks for doing the honors for the DC Chapter again today with the live thread. We really appreciate your efforts.

On Scene Report #2 - Marylander reports from this morning at LaFayette Park:

As directed by the authorities, the five FReepers were across the street from the Park, on the north side, away from the White House. Freeper chants included “Why call it ANSWER? It’s the Worker’s World Party” and “ANSWER supports Nick Berg’s killers!” This latter chant really upset the leftists.

About a hundred of the ANSWER crowd left their program to watch the FReepers. They mostly restricted themselves to disorganized shouting, but one man came across and asked Marylander to read a book he had. Marylander responded that she would read his book if if would carry her American flag back into the ANSWER protest. He refused. Marylander was carrying a Stay True sign that read, “Never Forget!” and had pictures of the burning World Trade Center towers, of the American contractor hanging on the bridge, and of Nick Berg just before decapitation. The man hit Marylander’s sign a couple times with his book. Kristinn told him that was assault and talked him into going away. Kristinn and Dr Raoul also talked to a young woman who came across, but for the most part it seems to have been a shouting match only.

On Scene Report #4 - more from Marylander: Today our Freepers are stationed about two houses down from Rumsfeld’s. Also on the scene with the FReepers are a lurker or two and a “lurker to be,” No Frill’s son, who was born in Iraq and is translating for the five Iraqi men being interviewed by CNN.

Stay True’s signs include “Rumsfeld YES, Al Zarqawi NO” with pictures of both and another sign with a picture of Osama that says, “My Best Friends are the American Left.”

The main ANSWER contingent was preceded by five “cheerleaders.” Marylander said someone else would have to describe the appearance of these odd-looking creatures. Waiting for the next call...

On Scene Report #5 - Marylander’s last on-scene report: The lefties are leaving, and she never even heard their sound truck. The lefty crowd was 500 -1000, and many seemed confused when faced with facts. They thought they were at an antiwar rally.

Even before the Park this morning, Marylander had met a couple of them at McDonalds. After she explained what ANSWER really is, the couple apparently changed their minds about attending.

Marylander reports the news crews seemed more interested in the FReepers today than in the lefties. [Maybe because we are more interesting?]

One of Marylander’s favorite chants of the day was at the end, scolding the lefties to “Pick Up Your Trash!” Some protesters turned around and did just that!

Marylander is, to use her word, “exhausted,” and a bit hoarse. Twenty FReepers CAN outshout 500 protesters, but I think they deserve a nice, soothing hot drink ...

Thank you for posting this thread. It is always exciting to get the reports in real time.

Glad to see GottaLuvAkitas1 and Mudboy Slim were there to represent us Richmond FReepers, lurkers and patriots. Way to go, guys!

Just got back. Took lots of video.

Four broads showed up before the main freakshow arrived. They were dressed in red, white, and blue, they had on kinky underwear (at least their tops) and they wore missile phalluses, which they waved around with great glee.

Thanks to all who made it, especially our large number of lurkers. And also the FReepers who brought along friends. You folks made a difference today.

A large number of impressionable youth would have come, marched and gone home believing ANSWER's lies had you NOT been there today. Now they know that ANSWER doesn't speak for all of America. Your chants and signs have given them something to think about. ANSWER's next rally will be even smaller. Their "march" didn't even fill a city block today.

In the past, they came marched, ranted and spewed ANSWER's hate speech without any reality check.

Thanks too for all those out there offering prayers for the effort and words of encouragement.
