Yes, I saw #21 later. I should have read the entire thread before I posted.

Thanks.

That would be my estimate as well. I know someone I work with who has family gatherings in the hundreds.

I always wonder when I see those "war is not the answer" signs...I haven't yet personally met a dem who even understands what the question is rather less grasps what the answer may or may not be.

Any Freepers in the DC area have access to a helicopter?

I find my self longing for the good old days. the very pro America mafia would send a family associate (hit man) to follow the trail.

Aren't we all sent to the Earth
to learn to LOVE and be LOVED in return,

...as we are all LOVED by the LOVE Itself..?

To act acordingly towards one another..?

And then to learn to LOVE JUSTICE as much as we do LOVE..?

This week JUSTICE landed with a righteous bang on the floor of the U.S. Senate,

...at the feet of Sen. JOHN KERRY's tearful withdrawal from any future Presidential consideration.


For
...the Enemy is now Within
...and always has been.

John Fn Kerry was playing hippie tag overseas, attempting to defeat us where he feels a bit safer . . .

Treasonous. Coward. Do we have to accept his passport when he returns?

Doesn't he just look so ... presidential????

I just got that one the other day. The child, who had lost her family, couldn't sleep unless HE and he alone held her. It was beautiful.

War is not the answer, huh? Hey dumb sh!t, you're too friggin' stupid to know what the question is!

I was praying for rain, or that nice snow storm that hit PA the other day. Does anyone have a real head count on this?

Sadly, Ronnie, I think people are forgetting - and history is going to repeat itself.

Today we had a few dozen - yes, a few dozen - people show up to counter these leftists. And nearly a dozen of them were wounded warriors from Walter Reed. God Love 'em and Bless them, they should not have to defend us from our enemies overseas and then defend themselves from the lies and hatred from the leftists on our own streets.

It's happening again, Ronnie. At the march today the protesters were calling our soldiers murderers, cussing them out, flipping them off, spitting at them, and threatening to shoot them.

And where were "we" to defend our troops from these attacks by the leftists? Sleeping in, or out at the mall or something equally important.

I get a little bit PO'd by the lack of care that conservatives in this area seem to have about our troops. And I really have to wonder if we deserve to have such fine men and women laying their lives on the line for a bunch of people who can't be bothered to stick up for them on one afternoon.

I remember vividly how my older cousins were treated when they were in the military during Vietnam, and I see it beginning all over again, with Jane Fonda now stepping up for a command performance.

They (we, you, us, whatever you want to call it) are forgetting, Ronnie. And I don't know what it will take to get people off their butts and do something about it. I'm tired and cranky, I guess.

My town had a "Support our Troops" fundraiser tonight. The group in my town sends out tons of mail and packages to our troops where ever they are. It was quite an event...sold out . There were Vets from WWII to Iraq and they were all cheered and thanked. At the end of the night, everyone got in a circle and sang "God Bless The USA". Not a dry eye in the house!!!When the Iraq and Viet Nam Vets were introduced, they got the loudest cheers!
What antiwar protest?

The drive by media was out in full force today with their big lie technique. I heard that tens of thousands sound bite numerous times today.

What about the Hollywood crowd..did anyone see Susan Sarandon? those people really annoy me!

Let's be very generous and say 10,000 total showed up in the different protests around the country. There's 300,000,000 in the U.S. That's .003 percent of the U.S. population. That also means that 99.997 percent of the population chose not to protest. Hmmmm.....

My daughter and I were coming back from the DC Auto show and some of the Tens of Thousands got on to the Red Line at Metro Center. Most got off at Dupont Circle (aka The Fruit Loop) they were mostly college HS age and look liked MTV addicts. As the saying goes

"If you aren't liberal by the time you are 20 you haven't got a heart, but if you aren't a conservative by the time you are 40, you haven't got a brain"

I think there were more folks checking out the Pandas today than there were protesters.
