Thanks to the hard work and perseverance of kristinn and other DC Chapter FReepers, Free Republic got a lot of PUBLICITY all over the nation this weekend. This was due to press releases, faxes and phone calls informing the media of our counterprotests of the bussed-in anti-american leftist scum which polluted the nations capital yesterday and today.

Below is a listing so far of where FreeRepublic was IN THE NEWS:

BTTT KUDOS to the Freepers in DC for another effective patriots rally supporting the liberation of the people in Iraq and their liberators - the United States of America!

What a noble contrast you presented to the spectacle of the DemocRAT-supported Leftist freaks who were shouting to President Bush things like, "Drop acid - not bombs"

Keep up the good work!!

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth fighting for is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than he." ~ John Stuart Mill

Wow. Not bad for a weekend's work. Thanks for posting all the links, Xthe17th.

I have a favor to ask folks: Check your local paper for photos or reports of the Patriots Rally in Sunday's or Monday's paper. If you see anything, could you post what paper and what they had about our "pro-war" activities.

Thank you.

We appreciate the support and help we get from our fellow FReepers.

We'll keep doing this and will be asking you again to come out and support our troops and America.

Good job DC Freepers. Can't tell you how proud I was to see you standing there with the letters spelling "Human Shields" in front of the White House. You and the Marines - how absolutely patriotic.

Actions like you people take are what make Free Republic so wonderful. Positive action, respectful action just showing support and love of your country. I almost got a tear in my eye.

On C-SPAN, I heard, "Why do you call it ANSWER? It's the World Worker's Party!" Who was that fellow on the bullhorn? Good job to all.

"Has anyone besides me wonder how on earth this nation has remained free for over 200 years with that many idiots running around????"

For many years they were just 'running around' with neither the brains nor the privilege to vote. Now, they just lack the brains, but not the privilege, IMHO.

Not sure if these are freepers, but they are counter protesting nonetheless!

Xthe17th: Thanks for the ping....and posting all the fantastic coverage!

Thank your DC Chapter for standing up for America & our military!

Where were all those 'peace nazis' when X42 was bombing the heck out of Yugoslavia? Obviously they only protest Republican Presidents!
