SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny on Sat., Oct. 25, 2003 in Wash., D.C.

D.C. Chapter ^ | Tuesday, October 7, 2003 | Kristinn and Angelwood

[Angelwood]

Operation Tribute to Freedom is a website containing news about the war on terrorism, suggestions on how individuals can help or organize a meeting or rally of their own to support the troops or remember those wounded or lost, and a map showing the locations of events planned.

The DC Chapter's Freedom Rally is listed on their website map under "DC" at this location: http://pacific.afis.osd.mil/otf/new_events/dc.html

Look for more news soon about the rally and counterprotest of the anti-war, anti-American "ANSWER" march through DC. on October 25, 2003.

Looks like I might be driving up in the morning...$$ is tight and I have no one driving with me or splitting a room, so I may be leaving Syracuse at 2am Saturday morning to meet y'all.

[Coop]

Bump, and look forward to see you there!

[Coop]

I wish i could be there but i will be serving the cause in another fashion; i'll be at a training exercise for the Army.

Train well, and send some family & friends in your place! Thanks for serving our country.

The DoD linked up with FR for an official Operation Tribute to Freedom event (+ a plug on the DoD website)? Cool!

A legitimate office of the U.S. government acknowledges FR's patriotism. Maybe Jim Robinson can use this as exhibit "Z" in the Fresno / "FR is not a hate group" lawsuit. *g*

E-mailing.

Thank you for all you do, Angelwood.

Bump for our troops

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

Passing by and waving to Ragtime Cowgirl.

[Angelwood]

Thanks for passing by -- wait till you hear what we are working on now! Oops! Shhh!

[A Navy Vet]

Bump for our Troops. Do you know if Taxman is going to be there yet?

[Angelwood]

As far as I know, Taxman will be there. Hey, Taxman, please confirm.

We'll be having a rally and a counterprotest -- it's a two-fer (not the Clinton kind!). The Rally information is now up on the www.townhall.com calendar, as well as the Operation Tribute to Freedom DOD website. Oh, the other side put up our rally info, too.

More details will be posted soon.

I sent Operation Tribute to the Troops info about the "With Love and Appreciation" CD-ROM slideshow. They would be a great resource to further the distribution to our Troops. I'm going to send out a VetsCoR Bulletin to our members and readers to promote your rally. Thank you again for doing it.

[Angelwood]

The Operation Tribute website is very informative. I'm sure they will be interested in your slideshow of pictures at rallies across America. Thanks for promoting the rally. We appreciate your support. I hope some of your members nearby can attend on the 25th.

[A Navy Vet]

Well, you have at least one member and a VetsCoR director, Taxman. If dixie sass is able to attend, then you have a member of our Advisory Board (and a true asset). I'll directly contact our other DC area Advisory Board member, Trueblackman. Wish I could be there.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Back at ya.

did somebody say "dixie sass"?

[tgslTakoma]

BillF... How did your stand of bamboo fare through the hurricane last month?

I am working on an idea... and will need access to some tall support devices that would enhance my chosen method of communication. If you have some available, and have time to choose the sturdiest of the tall, I would be much obliged. I'm still calculating how many I would need... at least three - perhaps six. I'm tempted to think Texas-scale, but that would require even more. We can talk this weekend.

I know what you're thinking and I like it, yes I do!

Excerpt from the Remarks by President Bush in honor of Independence Day
United States Air Force Museum, Dayton, Ohio | July 4, 2003

"...Our nation is still at war. The enemies of America plot against us.
And many of our fellow citizens are still serving and sacrificing
and facing danger in distant places.
Many military families are separated. Our people in uniform do not have easy duty,
and much depends on their success. Without America's active involvement in the world,
the ambitions of tyrants would go unopposed, and millions would live at the mercy of terrorists.
With Americans' active involvement in the world, tyrants learn to fear, and terrorists are on the run..."

Someone should clue me in -- too busy to think these days! The permit for the rally will be in my hands shortly. It's a two-fer (not the Clinton kind)!
