HOW MANY OF YOU ARE GOING TO WASHINGTON?
me | July 24, 2009 | Hildy

Posted on 07/24/2009 8:45:24 PM PDT by Hildy

I want to know how many of us are going to get off our computers and actually do something that might make a difference. This march on Washington in two months is more important than anything you can do from now until the end of time. WE NEED TO SHOW UP IN NUMBERS THEY CANNOT IGNORE. Will you be there?

I have heard all the excuses..."I have a job" ...yea? TAKE TWO DAYS OFF. "I can't afford it"...DIG INTO YOUR SAVINGS or BORROW THE MONEY...This is a fight for the future of this Country. This isn't even a luxury any more.

I am literally BEGGING everyone to do whatever it takes to get their body to Washington, DC on September 12th.

If we can't get AT LEAST a million angry Americans to stand up to this reign of terror than we might as well give up...

WE ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN STOP THIS MADNESS.

Since I haven’t used my special ping list for a few days, I didn’t want you to think that I had forgotten you.

Hope to see all of you in DC in September.

Reservations made, looking forward to it. Thanks for the ping.

I shook hands with Billy Dale at the March for Justice, back when I was still lurking. It happened to be relatively convenient for us.

Our company decided to dictate which weeks we will be
taking off this year (well, two of my three weeks).

Sadly, they did not check the dates for the FR convention
when they did this.

For those of you who can't make the DC event, how about donating the price of a ticket? This is a superhuman effort on the part of many volunteers to provide the perfect vehicle to show the DC powers-that-be that we're fed up and we're NOT going to take it any more!

So you can't go. Does that mean you won't do ANYTHING to support this effort? I refuse to believe that about freepers. Freepmail Committee Co-Chair, "Seek the Truth", and find out what you can do to help back this convention and Tea Party protest.

Your donated ticket can go towards defraying unexpected expenses. Or it can go to help out a veteran or a student or to a needy who's trying with might and main to get to our event. We want EVERY freeper to be in DC in September! Please do your bit right now. Thanks to all generous and supportive patriots.

Remember, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THERE TO SHOW YOU CARE! CONTACT "SEEK THE TRUTH" right away!

We will miss you. Will you be able to attend a local Tea Party on the 12th?

We need massived numbers across this great land to let Congress know we have had ENOUGH!

RatRipper and Brer RatRipper, who is my non-Freeper brother, are coming from Alabama. Even though he is not a Freeper, he is a big supporter of what Freepers stand for.

We need big, big numbers! I’ll see you all there.

we need big numbers is right. With all the preparations and all the sponsoring organizations, if we don’t get a million people I’m throwing my hands up and realize we get what we deserve.
