FReep of Code Pink's Quagmire at Walter Reed, Aug 19 (Heavy graphics, Join us Aug 26!)
DC Chapter ^ | August 22, 2005 | BillF

Posted on 08/22/2005 12:39:11 AM PDT by BillF

For the twelfth week in a row, FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond have outnumbered Code Pinkos at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center. 

Code Pink is truly stuck in a quagmire as FReepers severely hinder the Pinkos' cynical attempts to manipulate wounded soldiers and relatives in hopes of finding those who will join the anti-war movement and break faith with the troops still fighting a ruthless enemy. Many of the most severely wounded troops from the war in Iraq and Afghanistan are taken to Walter Reed for continued treatment and rehabilitation. The Pinkos other goal is too demoralize those wounded troops, but wounded troops have repeatedly thanked us for our presence as an antidote to the morale-sapping leftist antics.

Incredibly, Code Pink cannot muster enough people to achieve their desired fraud and deceit at their Walter Reed protest in the liberal bastion of Washington, DC, a city filled with left wing activists and where about 90 percent of the people voted against George Bush.

Do you think that the Pinkos are sickos to have an anti-war demonstration at a hospital holding war-wounded? Then please help us by showing up next Friday night per details below.  Stand up against the Pinkos who've endorsed the Iraqi resistance (see here and here), given money to the other side in Fallujah, and called our troops "killers." Then, the Pinkos demonstrate at the hospital and pretend that they support our troops.

This was Eighteenth Fabulous Fun FReep of the Code Pinkos as FReepers continue to frustrate the Pinkos' evil scheme.

As we have done on a number of these FReeps, we ate pizza on site at the FReep.

The honor roll of those in attendance:  Albion Wilde, Justanobody, lurker Joan, Landry Fan, Jimmy Valentine's brother, Doctor Raoul, beandog, Nina0113, Fraxinus, BufordP, bmwcyle, Apple Blossom, Our Man in Washington, Chick-with-a-brain, HOCWAB  (husband of Chick-with-a-brain) and their 2 daughters, lurker Bill, lurker Liz, and BillF.  We tied our attendance record of 20 patriots, but set a new record of 21 if you count Vega, the canine-American who came with Bill and Liz.

Click on another photo and its larger version should open in the same window that the first enlarged photo did. Note that some of the wider photos may open in a window wider than your screen and you can use a horizontal scroll bar to see parts.

Photos will be interspersed in the report. As it got progressively darker, my telephoto lens shots became less clear, requiring software enhancement. You will notice that people look more like cartoon characters in my later telephoto lens photos.]

Opposed to our twenty patriots, the Pinkos managed yet another anemic effort. They were no more than 8 in the first hour, but the Pinkos eventually peaked at 14.

Usual ritual of leftists illegally putting their banners on military property, the Walter Reed fence.

Side view of the leftists early with a strange circular glow on them.
It is either a special feature of the Halliburton-supplied camera or
an artifact, possibly caused by moisture (it had just rained and
a couple very tiny drops, barely noticeable, fell during the FReep)

 There was a strange circular glow right around the leftists in the above right photo, which was NOT caused by any PhotoShop or similar editing.  It may just be an artifact in the photo, but I'm hoping that the Halliburton-supplied camera is supposed to generate a Rover-like device per The Prisoner TV series from way back. Rover was a vicious, balloon-looking, remote-controlled device that rendered people unconscious and transport them so that they could be kept in a prison village. Maybe, this Rover-like device could be called Hally (as in Halliburton) and could transport the leftists to GITMO. You can see the resemblance between Rover and Hally by comparing the above right photo to the photo of Number 6 (person on the ground) at the right. Hally just didn't quite form completely, didn't solidify fully on this night. Back to the drawing board.

When a bus of patients pulled back into Walter Reed after a night on the town, the interior light was turned on. The patients on our side of the bus waved appreciatively as we chanted "USA, USA." If the past pattern held, the patients on the leftists' side of the bus gave the leftists one-fingered salutes and other signs of contempt. Doctor Raoul, who was directly across from the leftists at that time, reported that the leftists' demeanor changed and they appeared quite discouraged right after the bus pulled in.

NOT HYPERLINKED

Squeegee guy at far left arrived late and did not play in traffic this night.

Many of the leftists show up late, after dark.  They think that the darkness prevents their images being processed by the Halliburton facial recognition software. They are wrong.

NOT HYPERLINKED

Vega was not a "right-wing attack dog."

When lurkers Liz and Bill showed up with their dog Vega, Jimmy Valentine's brother asked if that was a "right-wing attack dog," presumably referring to the one that we've requested from the Halliburton Special Ops Department for defensive purposes only. Vega was not an attack dog.

As an experiment, I told Vega the dog that the Pinkos had given $600K to "the other side" in Fallujah. No response. I said that they endorsed the Iraqi resistance. No response. I then told the dog that the Pinkos liked cats. Still, Vega was unmoved except for occasionally trying to get to our pizza.  Vega was too sweet to attack anything except pizza and the FReepers managed that attack themselves.

The highlight of the night was two Walter Reed patients coming over to thank us for being there. It is quite strange to have them thanking us. Of course, we thanked them repeatedly for their service and for the sacrifices they've made to keep us free. One of the soldiers lost an arm in combat, the other lost his right hand. He shook people's hands with a prosthetic hand (he was just there to get it checked out or tuned up).  He is headed back into combat, at his request. He wants to make sure that his kids find a better world when they are older.

There is a debt that we owe to those two soldiers and the other troops that we can never repay by words or deeds. Still, those soldiers and other troops have made it clear that we are making a difference by peacefully countering the Pinkos at Walter Reed. You too can make a difference. You can come this Friday per details below. What are you waiting for?

There was some chanting at the leftists, but the real interaction was as the leftists left shortly after their 9 pm quitting time. A couple of them walked by and asked "how much is Halliburton paying you?" Doctor Raoul referred to them as baby-killers, noting that Code Pink endorses "certain acts of desperation" (e.g., the intentional car-bombing of innocent Iraqi children) as just.

Then, as we were packing up to leave, two police cars pulled up. They said that someone (gee, I wonder who) had reported that we were harassing people, blocking the sidewalk, and standing in the street. We explained that we have strict rules against such conduct and that we had not done those things. The police just talked to us for a while and then left.

We absolutely must keep the pressure on Code Pink and keep showing the wounded soldiers at Walter Reed that Code Pink doesn't speak for the nation. If you live in the DC area and haven't yet come out for one of these FReeps, please do so this next Friday. Injured Walter Reed patients, including amputees, have repeatedly told us how important it is for us to be there to counter Code Pink.

If we can sufficiently outnumber the leftists often enough, embarrassment may cause the leftists to stop these outrageous morale-damaging ("Maimed for a lie" is one of their commonly-used signs) demonstrations at the hospital. What about you? Can you spare a few hours on a Friday night?  

Can you give up next Friday night at the movies to support troops who've given up limbs for your freedoms? Will you?

This FReep is rewarding, fun and important for our troops and our nation.

It looks and sounds like a wonderful time was had by all, Bill!

Couldn't make the Free this past Friday. We had two planes that came in late (9:00pm) and had to be blocked, chocked, Post Flighted and gassed.

Didn't finish up until around 11:00pm.

Hope to throw in on the 26th and give Vega some rubs under the chin at a future FReep.

Jack.

EG said: Did you make enough pictures of the ones with the Club gitmo shirts on to send to Rush?

I would encourage bmwcyle or anyone else wearing a GITMO shirt to send the photo(s) to Rush, but it is up to the person(s) wearing the shirt. (They have permission to send any of my GITMO photos to Rush for reposting there.)

In the picture where Squeegee Guy first arrives, Crazy Backpack Guy is holding another of his barely legible signs. With my expert Halliburton Pinko-Scrawl Translator, I uncoded the following:

The extreme right…
Slanders grieving mothers
Shoots up peaceful vigils
Runs over crosses
How long ‘til they start
Bushing them again?

Apparently he thinks Cindy Sheehan is a laudable role model.

God bless you all. If I am ever in DC I will join you (I live in upstate NY). By the way, some of us FReepers like cats AND dogs! And every gay woman I've ever met likes big dogs. Weird, huh?

Pinkos calling the police--this is par for the course.

Our protest warrior chapter would counter the "Women in Black" near Vassar College every Friday. And every Friday around 5:30, Vassar Security and a town of Poughkeepsie police car would roll up with a complaint that we were harrassing and threatening people. The irony was that we never harrassed or threatened anyone, but were on the receiving end of all kinds of threats (and so were our children, who were with us) from the leftists. Always shouted from the protection of their fast moving cars, by the way.

Don't forget to get out there and defend the Whitehouse on September 24th, as all of the CodePinkos will be there.

Aren't the last two lines as follows:

How long 'til they start
Burning them again?

Back pack guy is thinking of Robert KKK Byrd.

We bring our kids when we can (ages 9 & 12) then even help hold signs. As you can see from the pics, Chick with a Brain brought her whole family with her! Friday night becomes quite the family event!
