Shiver along with the D.C. Chapter, FReepers from across the country, other patriotic Americans and Iraqi exiles as C-SPAN broadcasts the Patriots Rally For America IV today at 1:05 p.m.

Recorded yesterday at the cold, fog-shrouded, snow-covered grounds of the Washington Monument, the rally held to support our troops, President Bush and the American policy on Iraq features former Rep. Bob Dornan, Aziz Al-Taee, Blanquita Cullum, John Armor, James Parmelee, Kevin Martin, Adam Ramey and yours truly.

Also featured are singers Cullen Martin, Stephanie Souders and, from Nashville, Lowell Shyette.

The program, if shown in it's entirety, should run three hours and fifteen minutes.

Get some hot chocolate ready, pop some popcorn, put on your red, white and blue sweaters and get ready to root for the home team: the men and women serving in our Armed Forces.

EAGLES UP !!!

Aziz:

"Protesters-- Which war are you marching against--

Saddam's sustained war against his people or the War for liberation of Iraq?

[staytrue]

sorry I did not make it, you did a great job on short notice.

[Catspaw]

"We are here to be Human Shields for Liberty"

What a great line.

[RobFromGa]

Aziz-

"We must be on the right side of history. Bring Saddam to justice for killing 1.5 million Muslims."

[abner]

This guy is good. He was on Fox & Friends this morning. He announced his speech there. Then I got up and saw the Wash Times article and recognized his name.

[evilC]

bump

[Roscoe]

Bump for patriotism.

[nutmeg]

BTTT!

Aziz:

Saddam killed my cousin, brought his mutilated body to my aunt, asked for money to pay for the bullets used to kill him, and told her his body could not be buried.

Other victims being descibed now. Chemical, biological attacks. We are a witness to history. We are not the media propoganda.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Sadaam killed his cousin, made the family pay for the bullets used, and threatened death to the family if they had a funeral for him. Killed other friends, family, classmates...brutal stuff.

[Mo1]

I like this Aziz guy.

More in this country need to hear his story .. there are thousands of folks in Iraq that have similar stories

Saddam is an evil madman and some on the left need to start to realize that

"Merci - Les singes rendant, qui mangent fromage."

My French is rusty, but it says something about cheese eaters.

[Txslady]

Watching it now on CSPAN! Awesome! Just Awesome!

[sweetliberty]

" just wondering how many people are watching this now?"

Usually, a pretty good indicator is the FR troll count during the course of the program.

[RobFromGa]

Aziz:

"Saddam's Hijacking of Iraq will be over soon."

[sauropod]

Good to see everybody yesterday!

[RobFromGa]

Thanks to you and all the DC Freepers for organizing this. Fantastic job.

[majordivit]

My G-d, somebody is actually carrying a placard comparing Sadam Hussein to Adolf Hitler. That can't be. How can both opposing heads of state in an impending war be compared to Adolf Hitler?

[Dolphy]

I like him too. I really don't understand how anyone cannot support the destruction of the current Iraqi regime upon hearing men like him.
