The estimated cost of the Rally for stage, sound system, porta-potties and other expenses is $4,500. Members of the D.C. Chapter are paying for the Rally out of their own pocket augmented by FReeper donations. That said, we could use some help. If you would like to contribute to the success of the Rally, please visit the
Rally For America page. Arrangements have been made for donations using Paypal or by mail. We will also need volunteers to help at the Rally. Please contact Angelwood (angelwood8@earthlink.net). Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Please mark your calendar for April 20 and stay tuned for further announcements.
We have reposted this announcement thread. Please bump it so as many people as possible are aware of the Rally on April 20. Thank you.

Operation Infinite FReep ping and a wish for "Fair Winds and Following Seas" to all our patriots out there. We know many of you cannot make it - that said your kind words of support have been most appreciated in regards to our past events.
The D.C. Chapter sends its most heartfelt thanks...

Observation re the leftist protests' timing:
April 20th, besides being Hitler's birthday, is also famous among users of politically-incorrect vegetable matter. Seems that many years ago students at a certain Marin County high school used to gather at 4:20 PM to inhale the smoke of this herbal substance. Soon the number 420 became adopted as slang for the activity. Eventually this folk tradition seized on the date of 4/20 as a sort of illegal-weed-imbiber's holiday, and recent years have seen big public protests in DC and elsewhere on behalf of changing the laws regarding this plant matter.
I can't help but think that the scheduling of left-agitprop rallies on the same day was DELIBERATE, so as to blur the distinctions between the nature-lovers and the anti-Bushies, potentially radicalizing the former and making the latter's contingent seem bigger and happier. Any thoughts?
BTW, here on the Left Coast we have our own version of Red Spring Fever to address. Check my post at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/661144/posts?page=4

Great job, Dave. The lead-in is perfect for a flier.
BTW, Joe Galloway just came on C-SPAN from Wednesday. He was speaking to the Naval Institute in Annapolis.
