Scramble, scramble, scramble! Freepers man your planes!
Fifth columnist forces are inbound to your sectors!
Tomorrow, three separate bus tours will leave Crawford and carry Cindy Sheehans worshippers all over our fair land to denigrate our troops in many new venues. Only you can stand up against the sort of people who call Al-Qaeda in Iraq "freedom fighters."
The schedule appears in post 1. I will post new information as I find it.
I would also like to take this opportunity to announce the launch of Operation Hero. This Operation is an effort by FREEPNORAD to ensure that all attempts at troop abuse by the fifth column are counter-protested. Although this will cover any effort to denigrate their sacrifice, please note that the Sheehan bus tour and the Fred Phelps Pig Parade (holding "God Hates [homosexual reference deleted] protests at soldier's funerals) are major targets at this time.
Eagles up and get kills! These heros deserve whatever we can give!
Build them monuments of marble, surmounted with statues of Victory. Cut their names in enduring tablets of stone. Tell of their heroic deeds in story, and sing of them in song. Keep their memories green in our hearts forevermore. And yet we will not pay one half the great debt of gratitude and love we owe.--General Smith D. Atkins, Dedication of the Stephenson County Soldiers' Monument, 4 July, 1871
Thanks to Earthdweller for her help with this (and for standing against Phelps' pigs at a soldier's funeral in Indiana!), to LibertyRocks for the original Phelps heads up, and to MO1 for posting this schedule in another thread and alerting me to these enemy movements.
Joined Cornbread's chat forum and asked there as well. Hopefully someone will know something!
I know that the Ditch Witch herself will be making an appearance at the Airshow at NAS Brunswick in Maine -- I think the headline on FR was something like Angels Above, Protests Below. (Angels being the Blue Angels.) That's why the Fair is my guess.
Here's the link to the post I made at the Cornbread Show website:

I'm assuming anyone who wants to can lurk there and see any answers that are posted. I'm ALSO hoping Cornbread will be all over this. He is VERY Troop supportive.
Too bad they aren't coming to Seattle. We could give her the same kind of reception we gave Hillary's bus tour.
Hi...
NYC here.
I'd appreciate a PING when the Witch in the Ditch announces her NYC location. I have access to a large-format printer- I can make 2x3' or 3x4' posters easily!

BTTT
If cindy comes to Philadelphia, we will be there to "greet" her!
I heard on WRKO 680AM (Boston) this morning that the Sheehan Bus Tour planned to protest the Blue Angels visit to the Brunswick (ME) Naval Air Station. The Blue Angels will be there Sept 10 & 11. So will I to counter protest.
While there are many good poster slogans, I am wondering if an effective thing to do that would get media attention would be to get some purple ink and dunk an index finger in it.
Columbus, OH
Details, Details, Details, please.
Let me know by Freepmail when you get details? That way I'm sure to see it. TIA!
WOOOOOHOOOOO!!! Hubby gave me the ok to join in on Saturday if we can figure out where and it's a safe place. (LOL!) I'm in!!
I like your images.
I don't believe she's going to be able to make the NO tour, unless she decides to walk on water.
Please add bluesagewoman to your St. Louis Ping list.
I'm not her, but she's the leader of the Columbia, MO FReepers who FReep the post office each Saturday. She also led the "Operation Simply Shred" at the air show Memorial Day weekend. She and the other Columbia FReepers can be counted on to help if they know the route and information. They may be able to FReep along I-70 in Columbia, MO = the "socialist" enclave of Missouri. :)
Whaddaya say, can you give this column of Fifth columnists a little hell for me? See post 1 for the bus schedule.
I'm also thinking of a large picture of some terrorists, maybe the guys who killed Nick Berg, and a caption that reads, "Cindy calls them 'freedom fighters.'" Or just plain wording that says "Al-Qaeda in Iraq are not freedom fighters."
Good deal. Here's my latest Houston info:
Houston
September 2nd
Cindy and Iraq Veterans Against the War
Public event and fundraiser for the bus tour
Resurrection Metropolitan Community Church
2025 West 11th Street, just west of T.C. Jester.
If I see anything else, I'll advise you, but keep in mind that I'm going to have to concentrate on getting intercept info out to the cities that will be hit over the next few days, so you guys need to do good local intel in case I miss a change. If you have any other info, let me know and I'll ping it out.
