Can't be repeated often enough!!!
And as to your comment to someone about his daughter and her associates being your sworn enemy.... I'd be honored to stand with you if and when the time comes, and I'm certain I'm not alone.
I was the lone protester on a cold night and the reporters covering the event were po'd about no access to the candidate....
My Scrape the Bottom Vote for Rodham sign and I got the only coverage on the evening news. Got many kudos from my boss and many lefty co-workers the next day for my excellent interviewing skills!
God Bless the many Patriots who represented us all yesterday!
This thread is wonderful. You and everyone who participated just can't be thanked enough for your continuing efforts.
oh and prd50, so sorry to hear about your daughter and that bad crowd she's hanging out with eeewwwwwww!
I'm glad there were people there speaking for American's.
We have about as much control over our countries foreign policy as the Iraqi's have over saddam.
But I'm confident that will change........
Peace
I'm not sure of the next time we will be down, but keep us posted, and we will see if we can get more mid-westerners to join the party.
In God We Trust.....Semper Fi
Well, as much as I enjoyed B-1 Bob, he stretches the last of your comments to the limit. :-) I haven't seen anyone yet mention it, but the crowd turned ugly during his very passionate speech (which I liked!), where he continuously bellowed that the America haters were parasites. It was no coincidence that many of the freaks were drawn to us by that. Soon after Race was running around telling the women to scoot, but fortunately no physical confrontations broke out. The police did a magnificent job, and I personally thanked one officer for being out there.
It's really sad, isn't it? Just proves that lots of folks are "outraged" behind the keyboard or next to the water cooler, but when it comes to actually putting forth some effort...
There is a core group of very inspiring folks here at FR that talk the talk and walk the walk. For them I am eternally grateful.
My other sign on Saturday was an ad for Icehouse beer (We'll make the beer, you make the commercial). We're gonna send Icehouse the footage we shot, and hopefully they'll put us on tv. During the war over the portapotties, one of the leftists was trying to get in, and me and my buddies told her no, and then went into a rant about how she should go cool off with an Icehouse. Every time she asked us a question about why she couldn't use the bathroom, we just told her about what a great beer Icehouse is. It was too funny!
I was mulling over the possibility of bringing a basket of those 'shampoo and deodorant' samplers you see at CVS to hand out to the lefties at the next gathering. Cost effective, too...we could just gather them up off the ground to use at any subsequent rallies.
Over the course of the day; I am personally aware of several officers that asked for "Patriot's Rally for America" buttons. We saw to it that they got them. G-d Bless the police!
When I finally made it over to the Patriot's Rally around 12 noon, I reported to kristinn that WTOP News Radio 1500, the only 24 hour all news radio station in the metro DC area, kept broadcasting the story over and over again that "our side" was holding a "PRO World Bank/IMF counter protest" to the anti-globalization, anti-NWO protests. This probably incited some of the anarchists to pay a disruptive visit to the Patriot's Rally.
I personally hate it when the multinational global capitalist crowd benefits from our patriots being falsely painted as supporters of the New World Order. Several of my colleagues and I were there to show our support for our troops, the U.S. Constitution and Freedom. We were NOT there to support the special interest groups that are now running hog wild through Congress with, unfortunately, help from certain members of the Bush administration who shall remained unamed for now (at least not by me). ;-)
If not us, Who?
If not now, When?
the CSSC,sw
one "lady of the left" had such bad BO, that i kept circling her, trying to find a spot that didn't stink. i was UNsucessful in that effort.
