I hope our Freep of the Beast is half as successful as the one you guys did in Washington state.

Thanks! Chad Fairbanks and Libertina get all the credit. They did the legwork, calling on people to turn out, getting local radio talk-show hosts to note the event, and I'm not sure what-all else (but they can tell you, I'm sure).

Beyond that, it's a matter of coming up with signs, turning out, having a good time, behaving ourselves (always being polite and respectful) and obeying the law. I'm sure y'all will do well, and am looking forward to the report! (Hope somebody brings a camera...)

Some hints on signs:
- Keep the messages short
- Use large and dark lettering (so signs can be seen from a distance) - Focus on Hill, not Bill. (Some libs sympathize with Hillary; anti-Bill signs increase their sympathy).

I spent some time in other After-Action reports for sign message ideas. Here's what I've noted down (those I didn't really dislike anyway):
It takes a village -- of ghostwriters
It takes a village / Of Ghostwriters / To Write Lying History
Hillary Knew!
Grand Jury Testimony - 138 "I Don't Know"s (127?)
The Smartest Woman in the World -- And She Didn't Know???
America Can't Trust Hillary!
"Oh... NOW I Remember..."
Count the Silverware
Lying HerStory / "I couldn't breathe..." / I Was Laughing So Hard (credits to Libertina!)
Hillary, what about: / -The Missing Files? / -Whitewater? / -Juanita?

Also effective (as you'll see in my report) were signs that showed 0cents.com's "Living My Lies" postage stamp (we asked and got permission to use it) and the "Coming Clean" front cover parody with the very tired Hillary (the libs *really* hate that one!). We printed those out large on a color printer and taped the sheets of paper together (tape on the backside, so it won't reflect...) before mounting on the boards.

(Maybe I need to put this on a web page...)

Good ideas!!! THanks. I am not good at doing signs. My neat one that I used in rally for America was a pro sign that I WON in a contest. Wonderful timing.

Hope some of non-Ohioans can join us for the "fun".

I will possibly bring my pooch Oliver (see photo on my profile page)..

thinking of a sign for him... maybe:

Hitlery's here !

Who Let the Dogs out?

Whatcha think???

Nice with flags & patriotic dress...
