We used the "Rumsfeld Reloaded" image for two signs today. Some folks really liked it. The Pinkos didn't.

Gael Murphy lobbied the police to shut us down and move us out of the way, to no avail.

Since Code Pink's signature move is to disrupt other people's events, you'd think they appreciate how well FR took them to school.

[Mr] & [Mrs] Trooprally's contribution:

This FReep was a lot more fun than Sunday's FReep against Code Pink. First, it only rained on the way down to Rumsfeld's house. Second, we definitely rained on CP's parade. CP did not expect us to be there. When they saw us, they were both surprised and upset. I missed their expression, but [Mrs] T and Cindy_True_Supporter saw their faces. Imagine, only 6 of us upsetting about 35 of them. It doesn't take much.

It was especially enjoyable to chant during their press speeches. We drowned them out big time, twice. The first when they were in the middle of the street and the second time when they did a sit-in on the sidewalk in front of Rummy's property.

There was a lot of in your face "discussions", bumping back in forth to move us away from their group, some shoving by Cindy_True_Supporter when a moonbat started to make light of her son's accident in Texas, and by the moonbats when tgslTakoma was holding the "Code Pink, Human IEDs" sign and when taking movie pics of the Great Pink Sit-In. Tgsl was closer to Cindy Sheschrew than most of the CP group. TgslTakoma's daughter, who I thought was quiet and non-confrontational, got right in there with mom and watched mom's back. She was a little wildcat. So much for first impressions.

Of course we were very loud in our freedom of speech. I can't say it enough, CP was visibly upset about us raining on their parade. It was great.

Personally, I directed most of my freedom of speech to Cindy Sheschrew during the Sit-In. I had my brother's laminated wallet size picture (Vietnam, KIA) with my Gold Star pinned to it. I gave her several very loud pieces of my mind. It went from where is her son's headstone to why is she dishonoring her son's volunteer service. All the time holding my brother's picture. When asked by CP why I'm not volunteering to fight, I told them our son is in the Marines in our place.

Then they complained to the police about my cigar. They asked the police to tell me to put it out. Imagine that, we can't have freedom to do what we want, but they do. The officer basically told CP to go pound sand.

Before the great environmental smashing by CP, Medea B. tried to grab [Mrs] T's "CP, Human IEDs" sign to create a physical confrontation. [Mrs] T won that battle telling Medea not to touch her or her sign. As Medea walked away, she mumbled something about not touching her and having another idea. Apparently it was the great environmental smashing.

I was next to CP at the brick wall when it was breached. The first two Pinkos were through the hedge before I realized what was happening. They made it to top of Rumsfeld's front door steps but were quickly wrestled away from it by the police. The fourth person I didn't see, but the third one, the black hooded guy was next to me. He was a little slow getting through the hedge. I thought he tripped as he started to get up, but it was the police officer jumping on top of him. The great environmental destroyer never got off his all fours. That was my one great laugh for the day when I saw it happen.

She and Gael Murphy wrapped them in pink yarn.

D.C. Chapter mega ping. My apologies to those who weren't notified. This was organized quickly and not everyone got the word.

After thirty minutes of the trio laying on the driveway, a frustrated Medea started complaining to the police that the protesters hadn't been arrested yet.

Sorry Medea, being a bitch isn't a felony yet.

Did you hold up a sign that said: "Dick Cheney just left his home to come over here for dinner. It's a 5 minute Drive. Did someone say DUCK!!!"

This time I stopped at Allison Yorra. She was not amused either. But I was.

Hey Allison, You're a....well you know.

I thought I saw Cindy Sheehan and her cohort today. I was walking up Connecticut Avenue from the Farragut North stop, and I see some police on motorcycles come up, as if in a procession. I turn around and see the pink-clad crew come up Connecticut, delaying traffic behind it. There were probably less than a hundred of them, so I thought it was senseless that they were letting them march up the street.

Really now, when visitors come calling in this warm weather, it is the polite thing to do by serving them Kool Aid.

She was not amused. I walked back, again playing "Duck, duck, goose." This time I stopped at Allison Yorra. She was not amused either

Welll the old gal realized how long it's been since she's been "goosed".

Code Pink Needs The "Big O".

We taunted Allison for not showing jail solidarity and jumping into the police van with the dupes. When we challenged her for being a "Chickenhawk peacemonger" she responded by saying something like, "People call me a lesbian but I have two children." I have know idea where that came from.

This may be the funniest thing I have read this month. Great work, guys! Sounds like you frustrated the c**p out of those delusional nutjobs.

Oh, I loved the duck, duck, duck, goose story too.

After failing yet again to get arrested, the remaining Pinkos walked back over to stand in front of Rumsfeld's. Medea was getting more aggressive. She shoved one of our signs as she walked around, and then tried a couple times to grab it from Mrs. Trooprally. The sign said, "Code Pink = Human IEDs."

Medea should apologize and then resign for that.

and to the great DC FReepers

Way to go. I know how much fun it is to show the colors
to the pinkos.
As one of the core group of San Diego FReepers who join Protest Warriors and counter the Pinkos often near the San Diego Navy Hospital & Medical Center.
Always great to see the pinkos scurry off like roaches in the light.
and yes, EAGLES UP!
