May I be added to the DC ping list even at my vast distance? I'm going to try very, very hard to be there for this rally and to pass the word as well.
Any recommendations for which outlying (outlaying??)metro stations in MD are best to park at/ride in on for those in PA/NJ/NY if they come that way? (I'll probably try to go to the Friday night WRAMC freep as well and stay over for this rally.) The info is for use in persuading others who don't want to drive all the way in.

I recommend the Greenbelt station. It is North of the Beltway, just off of Route #1.
It is the Northernmost subway station.
There may be a better station. This is probably the best one if you are coming down 95.

This thread needs a bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was in Iraq last week trying to assure the troops that they still have the support of the American people. The troops are aware of what happened during Vietnam and they are concerned the country will do the same to them. It is imperative that our men and woment in uniform KNOW that we support them!
All they see in the news overseas is antiwar protests because our side doesn't turn out in sufficient numbers when when pro-mission rallies are held.
It's not just overseas.
Thanks for getting this up so quick.

YES please - I plan to attend the Sept 23 rally and hope to bring friends. Thanks BillF - and to all of you regular DC Freepers - for working so hard to keep people in the loop.

Penciled in. Last year was just wonderful, riding with "Doc's posse". Tremendous speakers, awesome music, an unexpected fly-over by Pres. Bush, and I stole a kiss on the cheek from JimRob!

I know that there are people who believe that we shouldn't go counter protest because they feel that lends creedence to the protestors. I disagree. When you've been standing there, as I have, against the moonbats, and had a Gulf War vet come up and say that he was upset by the demonstrations going on, and then he took heart when he saw you standing there with a pro-troop, pro-mission sign...well, you just know you're doing the right thing. I challenge anyone who disagrees with counterprotesting to go do it once. I doubt they would keep their same opinion -- if indeed it's an honest opinion and not just an excuse to not do anything.

Trains come in from the north and south to Union Station. From their you can get a metro train to where we met last year.
Also, there is a metro train from Reagan National Airport to downtown D.C.
I'm sure local FReepers will also work with you.
Make hotel reservations now.

Ping - reserve the date and ping your lists.
We need lots of "boots on the corner" for this one for the MSM to give us coverage.
Lets show our troops we care.
