We gave away I'd say at least 2,000 leaflets on fertile ground. We're cold, our voices are hoarse, and there's just no way I'm going out to do more leafletting tonight! : ) Tgsl, it went *really* well.Another super effort! You're soaring to new heights!

"We" gave them away. It was definitely a team thing.
Leafletting is *not* a waste of time if you go to places where there are conservatives, it turns out.
See you tomorrow!

True story: today we gave out a leaflet to someone at one location who laughed and reported that she saw us last night at a different location (across town at the MCI Arena) and we gave her a leaflet there!!
LOL - in this big city we got to someone twice!! :)
Giving new meaning to "grassroots" conservatism. DC Freepers are HARD CORE!
VOLUNTEER NEEDED: We need someone to post updates from the field for our live thread tomorrow. Our previous volunteer has decided to attend the rally instead! You need (1) to Freepmail me your cellphone and (2) be available to post updates 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. EST. It's hard but rewarding work. Any takers?

Tomorrow, Kristinn and Angelwood may be very busy. If someone has a minor question or needs something done, let's try not to delegate "up" to them. Let's try to, whenever possible, lighten their load and prevent them from taking on too many administrative tasks or having to answer questions that someone else could just as easily answer. When the rally starts, hopefully they'll be kept free to deal with the speakers and the press, maybe even hear some of the rally this time!

Have a great rally tomorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in D.C.
Remember us on the 2nd, for our 1st Annual Los Angeles March Against Terrorism.
To: FIT-AIM-ACT-1; kristinn
We remember you. We've got the date and location of your rally Sunday on our list.
We intend to announce from the stage about other rallies in other cities, including yours, and if CSPAN covers it, maybe that will give your rally a bump.
You're on our list. These coalitions work! Checked out your website today, BTW: great website.

My praise was sincere. Hope that you don't that I ever said that leafletting is a waste of time.

It's a good thing you took a cab home. ;>)She better give it back. At least that's my advice.

Oh, no, I know you were sincere, I didn't mean my last post as anything other than cheerful. (LOL, it's *hard* to communicate in cyberspace.) No one's ever suggested leafletting was a waste of time. I think I wrote that because when I started doing it, *I* was worried it would be. But it hasn't turned out to be. No, we're cool.

tgslTakoma needs a hug!
HUG!
Well, I was spectacularly unsuccessful in getting through to Rush. Hope others were able to complete the assignement that Dr. Raoul made.
Shoot, he didn't even read my email! :(

LOL!
There is always the 10% that do not get the word!
chicagolady, rface and I showed up at Metrocenter to leaflet the hordes of Lisa Minelli admirers at about 6:50 PM (1+10 before show time), and there was no one there!
No FReepers, no crowds, a few stragglers up and down the METRO escalators, one drunk panhandler and two of WDCs finest in a squad car.
So, we leafletted everyone who came within range, but they were few and far between -- I mean there was nobody going to MCI tonight!
"Lisa is in big trouble" I thought -- "What if she came to sing, and no one came to listen to her?"
LOL! Finally, at about 7:45 or so, we found out that the show was cancelled!
The good news is that we handed out about 200 or so leaflets before we packed it in.
There is no bad news! We had a ball!
I may have even convinced a nice lady that I spent 10 or so minutes talking to that going into Iraq to take out Saddam Hussein was a good idea. I reminded her that the monumental lapse of judgement the world showed towards Hitler in the late 1930's led to about 50,000,000 needless deaths, and that if we let Saddam Hussein stay alive, the results could be even more catastrophic than that.
She promised to reconsider her position, and said she would attend the Rally tomorrow. I do hope she shows up.
With that win (she is the one who told me that Liza cancelled), we abandoned MetroCenter and went to dinner.

Ow!! LOL. Points for trying. :) That's a funny story and you seem to have a good sense of humor about it. Something I'm trying to regain this evening ... if anyone finds my sense of humor, please give it back to me, OK?
