The Field ^ | Friends of DC Chapter -- That's YOU!

[FreeTheHostages]

DC Patriots Rally Counterprotest begins at 9 a.m. today We have a Freeper volunteer -- Pippin -- who will take reports live from the field and post them on Free Republic for us. So look to this thread for live updates of what is going on in DC. The updates should start around 9 a.m.

My guess is not much because they can't even afford to buy ONE muffin to eat.

If I had a concession stand there, I'd jack up my prices 1,000% today. You want a muffin, Smellies? That'll be $40.

[Pippin]

thanks, Dutchy!

I missed it again! (What I get for turning the tv off too soon!)

While thousands of anti-war protesters gathered on the National Mall, a counter-demonstration of war veterans, billed as a 'Patriot's Rally' in support of U.S. troops, also began assembling near the Vietnam War memorial.

One of the organizers of A.N.S.W.E.R. bragged this morning, that there would be 200,000 in DC and 100,000 in SFO.
Bet the actual turnout was disappointedly less!

Though there were some "wise-guys" probably from Comedy Central going around and asking silly questions like "So you want to kill people?"

I'll answer that question if you answer my question first. Do you believe in pro-choice? Me too, and Saddam's mommy is going to have a late term abortion. :)
