DC Chapter, FRee Republic | July 6, 2006 | Albion Wilde

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks for the photos, and this was a great job as usual by our DC Freepers!

[Bigg Red]

Beautifully written report.

Thanks for the ping, Beth.

And thanks to all Freepers who were there to stand up for America.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

Geeze, after reading through this report I feel like I was there.

Wait a minute, I was!

Glad you took notes as I missed some stuff.

Steyn asks a good question. The Times has so far shown no interest in analyzing captured Iraqi documents, just as it showed no interest in reporting on revelations about the Venona operation.

[maica]

You are right. Both sets of documents are a big "oh, well" to the pink/red NYT.

[OldCorps]

Great job all of you. Us GA freepers are with you in spirit.

[CedarDave]

A Voice-of-America piece on the demonstration. How cool! Maybe we'll get a few more overseas members as a result.

(Joined the DC FReepers in the Vietnam Vets against John Kerry demo in September '04 and in Crawford to support President Bush last summer. If there is another support the President rally this summer, will be there again. Don't know when I can get to DC again.)

[Mrs. Darla Ruth Schwerin]

Prosecute the traitors...

[Sisku Hanne]

Excellent work, DC Chapter & FRiends. I'm glad there was such a good media response, and that they appeared to be taking in the message.

[trooprally]

Great graphics, and Thanks for not suing us for plagiarism. :-))

For the NYT's protest, I went threw several threads and this one stood out, so it was printed.

It's a shame there is no way to get the posters I made to NYC. We have a dozen or so and hate to use them just once. The Fred Phelps posters we keep because the D.C. chapter has seem them 3 times this spring.

Again, great graphics.

Yes, the information was published in the Travel section of the NYT, and this story also caused a huge uproar. Defenders of the newspaper say they have also published deep details about the home and movements of the Clintons in Chappaqua. They also say it was all written about before, such as when these officials were searching for homes to buy in that area; however, for the location of all the officials' vacation destinations to be publicized directly before a holiday in wartime smacks of tit-for-tat over the administration's displeasure with the security breaches.

And yes, some bloggers have advocated finding the locations of NYT owner and reporters, including where their children go to school, and one was reportedly prosecuted for using the phrase "hunt them down."

Sorry not to be able to link it for you today -- very busy day. But the info is out there online. I found it by Googling.

[Albion Wilde]

Great cartoon! LOL!!

[jjbrouwer]

There appear to be more photographers than protesters.

[Albion Wilde]

Ping to comment 49 - Confucious say: Great ideas generate much notice.

[Albion Wilde]

Thanks for the ping! Glad to see my "revised" NYT masthead made it!

Yes, it was a direct hit! Many thanks!

[Toskrin]

Where are the NYT investigative journalists going after Osama's secrets, and Al Queda's operation procedures?

That's what Daniel Pearl of the WSJ was doing. The NYT reporters prefer to stick with safe targets.

[Albion Wilde]

Hey! The woman on the left is using one of my graphics! Woo hoo! Go me! Go me! It's my birthday! It's my birthday!

Yes, that's one of our DC Chapter regulars. Great graphics -- thank you so much. All of you across the country stand behind us in so many ways when we are out in the street. Bless you!

You must have had a bag over your head. LOL!! Great job, JVB!

[Albion Wilde]

Steyn asks a good question. The Times has so far shown no interest in analyzing captured Iraqi documents, just as it showed no interest in reporting on revelations about the Venona operation.

My only regret, while reading Steyn, the most brilliant conservative analyst alive, is that he is ineligible to run for U.S. President. I hope the next Republican president will offer him a staff position, say, Karl Rove's job after Rove retires.

[subterfuge]

Well done!!!
