Anti-war protestors besieged wounded and disabled soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C, a new web report will claim that!

CNSNews.com is planning to run an expose featuring interviews with both protestors and veterans, as well as shots of protest signs with slogans like “Maimed for a Lie.”

The conservative outlet will post video evidence of the wounded veterans being taunted by protesters, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Developing late...

FReep of Code Pink's Quagmire at Walter Reed, Aug 19
Join us Aug 26!

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. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1468039/posts

There was one I was unsure if it was a woman or a teenage boy.

We have seen "it" at WRAMC. There are lots of pics of "it" on the thread about 4-5 weeks ago, IIRC.

Outstanding!

Wish I could be at WR Friday, but I can't. It will be interesting to see how the story affects turnout on both sides.

"How much longer before they start going back to the reprehensible acts of the late 60's and early 70's of blaming the soldiers and start spitting on them because they disagree with them??"

You are SO right! It seems the Left is intent on the "Vietamization" of Iraq.

Calling our soldiers "baby-killers" can't be far away....

I'd LOVE to see them try that to a group of healthy Marines.

Actually the wounded could make an easy job of it. tgslTakoma heard one young man who had lost an arm tell one of these leftists to stay away from him or he'd gut him like a fish.

Sadly, that is where we're going to get beat. JMHO.

I we sit back and let it happen, you're probably right. But I'm not sitting back.

why can't Walter Reed get them out of there?

Uhm...It's a free country?

The Pinkos gather outside the gate on public land. As BillF says they're trying to find someone to break ranks. Based on the sample of troops that we've talked to, it simply won't happen. The morale is outstanding.

This is just sick, but it is I guess somewhat reassuring to know that they aren't getting any support from the anti-Bush crowd.

What I find disturbing is that our "Support the Troops" counter-protests max out at 20 people. With thousands of FReepers within easy driving distance. Pathetic.

I'm almost 300 posts into this thread of "outrage," and I don't recall a single person pledging to join the "good guys." However, one person outside our area was kind enough to offer a donation to help out.

So far, you have justified everything that the Libs have said about Iraq. Violence only hurts our cause... Well, are they correct?

Actually, AW has politely and categorically shut down your weak excuse for a barfight. If you're really so outraged, why not do something productive? Look at the left column for a few suggestions.

I fear we're wasting our time. I have a feeling that Hunble is one of these keyboard warriors that spouts all sorts of drivel, but wouldn't be caught dead actually getting off the couch to do something about an injustice - unless it violated his/her tiny personal comfort zone.

Pretty brave protesters, mocking a wounded and disabled soldier. That's a Liberal for you

More appropriately that's a socialist/communist for you.

Nice gentle and soft pat on the head... I am so glad that you are not fighting a war, but just a gentle counter-protest. I am so proud of you!

I'm proud of AW. Because each week she's out there doing something about it. Everyone on this thread knows you don't do squat except piss and moan and try to stir up trouble (before quietly slipping out the back door).

I'm thinking of a word

... instigator! And a lazy one at that.

Next week I thought about naming my team "George Bush rocks", or something similar. My question is should I just let it slide and ignore it, or come up with a killer name to respond? I get along great with all there. A good mix of conservatives, libs, libertarians, and the apolitical frequent the place.

I'd keep Dubya's name out of it. Go with "God bless our troops!" or "We will not fail." Just MHO.

As a disabled Vet, I want to personaly Thank You and all the FPRS who were there...A BIG HHOOAAAHH To you guys.

Negative.

Please let us thank YOU for honorably and courageously serving our country and protecting our freedom. I hope and pray you have recovered physically and spiritually and are able to overcome your disability.

You're a living example of the cliche - Freedom isn't free.

Coop, I am humbled by your replies. Thanks for the link. I looked at that and it reminded me that there is much to actually do.Outrage is very powerful when disciplined.

Wasn't it his wife who told us that protesters show up at the Pentagon every Monday morning (as Pentagon workers are coming to work) with flag-draped cardboard coffins? A couple of weeks ago, the protesters threw baggies of ashes at the people coming to work at the Pentagon.

If they've started bringing coffins & ashes, it's just been in the last few weeks since I've been going through Rosslyn instead of the pentagon - the regular group (usually about 10 people) was just out there with signs. I've taunted them a few times.

I can't either, and it's killing me, but I've got a middlin'-size emergency.

Good news!

Word of the Pinko Protest outside Walter Reed is beginning to filter into local media as far away as Memphis, TN.

Friday morning, 600WREC-AM will be having an interview with the man who wrote the story for CNSNews.com.

Keep up the good work. We are with yo here in the Heartland!
