Patriots Rally For America

The DC Chapter of Free Republic and Rally For America are pleased to announce The Patriots Rally for America to be held in Washington, D.C. on April 20, 2002 at the Washington Monument.

The rally will be held on the northwest quadrant of the Washington Monument grounds near the intersection of 17th Street, N.W. and Constitution Avenue, N.W.

FReepers, lurkers and patriots from across the country plan on attending, are putting out the word via e-mail and posts to Internet forums and offering more moral and financial support (we still need more of the later to cover expenses) than any one cause should deserve.  For this, we are most appreciative. 

We are now down to the wire - full speed ahead and need you guys to help us make the final push to ensure this is the definitive rally of 2002.  As many of you are well aware, the anti-American crowd will be out there that day and we are asking you to help us send a simple, but very important,  message across America - this is our country and no one pushes us around on our home court. 

Confirmed speakers (in alphabetical order) include:

• John C. Armor, Esq. - Cyber-Congressman Billybob
• The Honorable Robert K. Dornan - U.S. Congressman 1977-1997
• Joseph Farah - WorldNetDaily
• Maria Heil - Second Amendment Sisters
• Niger Innis -  Congress of Racial Equality (CORE)
• Larry Klayman - Judicial Watch
• Kevin Martin - Veterans for Constitional Restoration and Project 21
• Jim Parmelee - NorthernVirginiaGOP.com
• Paul Rodriguez - Insight Magazine

Patriotic and topical music will set the tone of this most extraordinary rally - please plan on attending.  Music starts at 10:00 a.m. and the formal rally at 11:00 - expected end time is around 3:00 p.m.  The rally will be held rain or shine.

What to bring:

U.S. Flags - the more the better - Gadsden Flags - ditto -  Signs, signs and more signs with large lettering supporting what we hold dear.

This will be a great opportunity to peacefully counter the anti-war rally and march being held the same day in other areas of D.C. by the usual collection of America-hating communist/leftist/anarchist groups.

The Patriots Rally for America will provide an opportunity for all those who love our country to stand up publicly for America and to support our troops as they fight the war on terrorism.

One last (I promise) mass ping.

C-SPAN may have coverage (though we know they will be covering the lefties for sure).

Don't forget that Mustang will be posting a thread with phone in updates from the rally site.

And most importantly - EAGLES up to our brethern who will be facing off with the unwashed in Lansing, MI and San Francisco, CA and our Fresno crew who took to the streets last night.

[Mike K]

Thanks for your hard work, I finally get to attend an event put on by the legendary DC Freepers!

*Late Night Bump*

All the best 'morrow.

During your show, somebody, please, somebody, say a good word to that American, the greatest American, in fact, by whose monument you will be standing, for all Americans, George Washington.

Without him we have nothing to shout for, no flags to wave. Look up to that glorious building and thank God for George Washington.

Look up, and look upon the Washington Monument as it is, a living monument to the very best in and of us all.

RaceBannon, electric Strawberry , Little Bill and I have arrived at sauropod's home. Later we will attempt to transmit live from the rally with my pocket pc.

This post is via a pocket pc and a minstrel wireless modem.

Hope it comes out at the other end.

Good morning.

A few words of inspiration from the "Duke"

"FOLKS:All of my life I've felt privileged to have had good friends around me, privileged to have been able to do the kind of work I know and love the best, and to have been born in a country whose immense beauty and grandeur are matched only by the greatness of her people. For a number of years I have tried to express a deep and profound love for these things; to be able to say what I feel in my heart. I know most of you feel the same as I do about our country. Now and then we gripe about some of her imperfections, but sometimes that's good. Especially if it gets us working together to make things better. It seems to me we often to take too much for granted, and have a tendency to forget "The Good Things about America." My hope and prayer is that everyone know and love our country for what she really is and what she stands for. May we nurture her strengths and strengthen her weaknesses so that she will always be a "Land of the Free, and Home of the Brave."
Sincerely, John Wayne

I'm sorry I missed meeting you yesterday..I was there but there was so many people there I couldn't keep up with who was who....had a blast too!!

[Coop]

Nice meeting you in person, Dave. Great work putting all that together.

[Nitro]

I am sorry I missed it but I was required to take care of some things in order to secure gainful employment, on the upside I start work tomorrow!!

[VaMarVet]

Hey sailor boy - I understand and that is what makes us different from the unwashed - we work and contribute to our country's well being. Can't promise, but if you and the rest of the NYC Chapter arrange something on 1 June some of us may be so inclined on hitting the Amtrak again.

[VaMarVet]

Thanks - I remember long ago when the Duke was in the hospital - the Camp Lejeune NC Marine Base PX had a HUGE get well card for all of us Marines to sign. Semper Fi.

[KLT]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Dave...would love you to hit NY again..by then my EDP life should be straightened out....again I apologize for my noshow....when I can talk to you in person, you will understand...

God Bless Free Republic...God Bless Our DC Chapter...
