The piece-of-poop-niks (If I may steal BufordP's slang name) have definitely had enough of our counter protest. For the second week in a row, they have deserted their corner and have gone under ground. They have also changed the time of their call for the president to "cut & run". Their website requires one to use a personal email address to contact them for each week's new time. What a waste of energy and effort just to avoid our patriotic music and our preaching to them.
Most of the FReepers were in D.C. for A.N.S.W.E.R.S. big protest. Be4everfree's REPORT of AUG. 12 is a good read. FReepers are now "goons". Time to get out the steel tipped boots and batons. But I digress. A call for the locals to help out this week was well received. We had 13 patriotic locals to ZERO moonbats. We assumed the moonbats would not be there, so we needed a good crowd to also occupy their corner.
Roll call this week includes: Cindy_True_Supporter (CTS), GunsareOK, [Mr] Mr.Mrs.RedWhiteBlue (RWB), [Mrs] Trooprally, Lurkers Bill, Babs, Marie, Gavin, The Twins and Legionnaires Halsey and Frank, both Marines who served in Korea, and myself.
Reminiscent of when Concretebob took over Code Pink's corners at Walter Reed, we equally enjoyed our victory. (BELOW TOP) The corner before we moved in. (BELOW BOTTOM) Signs notifying passerbys who now owns the corner. I'm waiting for Lurker Gavin to bring my sign over and Lurker Bill takes up his new position. It took him several light cycles to figure out the best way to display his sign. Bill is very good at rotating his sign to approaching cars. He is in constantly moving.
(BELOW LEFT) [Mr.] RWB and myself on our new corner. (BELOW RIGHT) Lurker Gavin finally got across the intersection with my sign and stayed there. This intersection is terrible to cross. Extreme care has to be taken because of the left turn arrows and right turning traffic. At Walter Reed, there are a lot fewer turning vehicles.
(BELOW) Our regular corner held the rest of our group.
(BELOW) Our corner before we descended upon the moonbats' vacant corner. Lurker Bill, Legionnaires Frank and Halsey.
(BELOW) GunsareOK, Lurkers Babs and Marie, Legionnaire Halsey
(BELOW LEFT) One Twin, GunsareOK, Lurker Babs and Gavin. Gavin was getting his sign and the flag for our new corner. Gavin spent the remainder of his time on our new corner. (BELOW RIGHT) One twin, CTS, and [Mr] RWB.
The biggest problem we had this week was the moonbats driving in their cars. As probably expected, they were extra foul this week. On our new corner, we received numerous one finger salutes and nasty looks. On our old corner, we received a "Bush is a f**king idiot" and "F**k Israel". GunsareOK was holding a 'We support Israeli's War On Terror' sign.
But at least we knew who the waves and the concert of honks was for.
REMEMBER
Next Saturday, same place, Georgia Avenue, MD Rte. 97 and MD Rte. 108 in Olney, MD
Same time, 3 PM to 4:30 PM
As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.
We need good crowds at Olney the next several weeks to help cover both corners. If you can make it, we would appreciate your presence. It might be a little dull without the moonbats there, but all the waves and honking are for us.
RE: Olney FReep -
If you live in northern VA and want a short cut to Olney, here it is. It's an easy 20 minute drive from the American Legion Bridge.
A special Thanks to BufordP for enhancing the original plain type directions.
PING - And the FReep Reports keep coming in.
Hat's off to you all for the good works you do! Keep it up & God Bless!
So what time are they showing up?
I want to drive the final nail.
I will be there if it is this Saturday the 19th. It will be my first with you all.
You are all wonderful!
Keep up the good work. I will get to join you soon.
BTTT too!
It is time to pull the rock and watch them run.
Wow! Looks like you had a pretty good crew out there.
Hey! Can you ping the big DC ping list? I'm working from my laptop and don't have a current list on this thing.
Great work, everyone!
DC Chapter Ping-a-rooskie

Diana sounded great on this morning's Bill Bennett show. He and his helpers said they were very impressed with her = and I bet they haven't even seen a photo of her! LOL!
