This week is the second week we have occupied the moonbats corner while they try to elude us by changing their protest times. This particular thread is also the SECOND FReep that a dedicated group of FReepers had this Saturday in Olney. Add that to being out at Walter Reed the night before, and that's three FReeps in 24 hours.
That puts BMWcyle and Apple Blossom in a group known as "The 3Fers". 3Fers are those FReepers who have attended a three FReeps in 3 days, with no full days between the FReeps. We don't want the FReepers to rest up, talk to their spouses or get caught up on their work. Just A Nobody is a 5Fer.
The honor roll of 3Fers is: tgslTakoma's MOABII; Albion Wilde; Bert; bstien80; BufordP; Cindy_True_Supporter; concretebob; DollyCali; Iraqikurd; Justanobody; Kristinn; Lurker Bill; Lurker Samir; Trooprally, [Mr] & [Mrs]; \/\/ayne; Wheelbarrow; cf_river_rat; BMWcyle; and Apple Blossom
If you "qualify" as a 3Fer since Sept. 24,2005, let me know and we'll add you to the list.
But I digress. Back to this Report of a most fun FReep.
Three weeks ago, the moonbats deserted their corner. Last week we occupied their corner after we made sure they were not going to show up. This week we went right over and set up. We knew they would not be there because we FReeped them earlier this morning.
Between the moles, roving scouts, Halliburton phone and email taps, the D.C. Chapter's Rapid Transformation Force (DCRTF) we were right on them, like FReepers on moonbats. They could only muster 3 piece-of-poop-niks (BufordP's nick name) to our 6 patriotic Americans. At least at the old time they mustered 6-10 moonbats.
Roll call this week includes: Cindy_True_Supporter (CTS), BMWcyle (BMW), Apple Blossom, Tolerance Sucks Rock, a Welcomed first timer in Olney, [Mrs] Trooprally, Lurker Bill and Legionnaire Frank, a Marine who served in Korea, and myself. NOTE: Last week Legionnaire Frank was actually Legionnaire Glen, a WWII vet.
All pics are by [Mrs] Trooprally.

BELOW: Tolerance Sucks Rocks manning his position.
BELOW: Our new corner. If you can make it out to Olney, we could use your help to keep a good presence on both corners. The banner was set as close to the Sherwood sign as possible to help support it. The wind was blowing pretty good this afternoon. This morning there was no wind and 90% humidity. We sweated just standing there.
BELOW: One of three of BufordP's new flip signs. The "Quaker" section flips down to read "Peaceniks", so we can use it at other FReeps.
BELOW: Old corner's banners and signs.
BELOW LEFT: CTS upset that there were no moonbats to "verbally engage". BELOW RIGHT: BMW and Apple Blossom, with CTS in background.
NOW THE CONFUSED MOONBAT. Their group still have not gotten their message out to fellow moonbats. As citizen SMASH said last week, by changing their time each week, they lose followers. That was evident this morning when they only had three. Even barking waveman was a no show.
The confused moonbat came out to the corner, just looking around. We all figured he was a moonbat just by the way he stood. He went back to his gas guzzling SUV and got a camera. BELOW LEFT: Moonbat taking pic of our old corner. After taking some pics of us on our new corner, I told him to take pics of the two large free standing signs. BELOW RIGHT: I also explained how we took over the corner. He seemed amused and smiled at the two signs as he took pics of them. I was beginning to feel as if he was on our side. He had me fooled.
BELOW: This is the sign that he left on an un-occupied corner. [Mrs] T saw him put the sign up,and then run to his SUV and drive away. Such conviction!! BMW immediately crossed the street and retrieved the most professionally made sign I've seen. /sarc off
I also had one driver get us confused with the moonbats. Imagine, there I was, with my "We support our troops efforts in Iraq" sign, holding a large American flag with the Marine Corps flag under it, and this guy gives me the thumbs up, and our other corner the thumbs down. I yelled to him that they were with us, that we kicked the peaceniks off this corner. He did a double take at my sign, grimaced, and drove on, shaking his head. What an unbelievable f##king idiot.
We also got our fair share of one finger salutes and cat calls. But ALL the honking was for us, with numerous clapping, thumps up and waves.
What a great place to FReep.
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.
The event will be opposite Cindy Sheehan's trip to D.C. Last year's rally was a success for such short notice. Now you have advance notice. The troops need to see that we support them. They are getting tired of the driveby media throwing mud on everything they do.
Also, 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 invigorating.
RE: Olney FReep -
If you live in northern VA and want a short cut to Olney, Check out Post No. 39. 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 to the SECOND FReep last Saturday.
Thanks for all you do.
We're sure glad that you enjoyed ours. :-))
Thanks.
[Mr] T
Not worthy??? Your Minuteman cross country caravan puts you and the others in a class by yourselves. Thanks for that.
[Mr] T
We all gotta do what we can. When one that's in the right takes a stand against evil, it encourages others to speak out against evil.
Wish I could do more but still have to keep the day job-- Rove hasn't got me set up on the Halliburton Freeper Stipend Program yet, doggone it!
Amen to that.
time to call it a day. See ya all in the AM.
[Mr] T
Great report on "Olney Part Two".
Didn't even know about the "3-fer" club. Great to be included with such patriots.
If you "qualify" as a 3Fer since Sept. 24,2005, let me know and we'll add you to the list.3Fers are those FReepers who have attended a three FReeps in 3 days, with no full days between the FReeps. We don't want the FReepers to rest up, talk to their spouses or get caught up on their work.<[underline emphasis added]
Mr. T, rookie, you exclude us old timers. We were 3Fers when "you were barely a glint in Jim Robinson's eye" in BufordP's memorable phrase from last Friday. Our lawyers of Squeezem, Squeezem, and Makempay will be touch. :)
We don't want the FReepers to rest up, talk to their spouses or get caught up on their work. Just A Nobody is a 5Fer.
You drive them like rented mules, below. Great work!
Sorry I couldn't join you.
we need good crowds at Olney the next several weeks to help cover both corners.
Is this a standing invitation for the next several weeks? ;*)
Good to see you Spirit! Keeping busy?
Hmmmmm, I really should mark these FReeps on my calendar.
Good to see ya! ;*)
5Fer...woohoo!!! You are awesome!
Stop it! It is waaaaaay past your bedtime young lady! ;*)
'Nite! ;*)
You are welcome from the Rapid transformation Force and the locals.
The sign saying is Cindy_True_Supporter's. I just printed it out. Which reminds me, she has some more that we forgot to talk about Saturday. Things were moving fast.
[Mr] T
Love the "New Management" and "Cut and Run" signs!
And we plan to stay on them until their "strategy" completely fails. We had them on the ropes when they changed their times, I hope they are now on one knee. From their body language Saturday AM, they definitely were not pleased with our presence, even though the smiled and waved to us.
And we are having a lot of fun. The antique car show afterward is always a great way to finish the day.
[Mr] T
And we plan to keep the "cut & run" and "new management" signs up for several more weeks, just to rub it in.
Looking forward to seeing you in the MD/VA Rapid Transformation Force HQ some time soon.
[Mr] T
Busy indeed. Looking for sponsors to make future events possible. I wanna be a 5fer too ;^)
5fers are cool.
ping
I love that sign!!!
I'm a 3fer. Walter Reed 4/28/06 pm; Fred Phelps at Bethesday 4/29 am and White House Correspondents' Dinner, 4/29 afternoon.
Welcome to our group, will be adding you tonight. Three in a 24 hour period, did you ever get lunch?
[Mr] T
For oour enemies like code pink and other like simple-minded socialists:
Protesters
Look around, don’t dwell long,
Some are good, some are not,
Leave them surely in dust that has no song,
They are surely a miserable heart, a sorry lot.
They hate the good that we all know,
What is good and are not faded,
By those who enslave a dimmer glow,
Everyone for their taste must be jaded,
Fools think they are about being free,
While forcing others to do every awful part,
All the while dare not lend a voice to thee,
Who shatters the myths, truth impart,
Of the state man! That’s it, that’s it!
Roll yourself to the state and quit,
Strength and faith—who needs that cry?
Only every man and woman before we die.
Knows nothing real, only personal treasure,
Follows only shallow feelings and pleasure,
Would take what you earn and do,
To give it over to others who,
Would kill the baby, the old, in perfect form,
Would declare God off limits and a new day,
Would shelter inside their own comfort until the storm,
Destroyed him, for it’s the only sure way,
For one who never looked at real, has to die,
And then surely learn. It must be this way, why?
Surely truth always hurts more than the lie,
In their minds, their stagnant hearts belie,
Their lost souls, a man’s greatest gift,
Their own conscience, a tortured drift.
Dismissed by them who do not see,
Difference between animals, thee and me.
It’s hard to know the lost grasp of the key,
When man turned, lost grasp of being free.
Take solace alone, you poor blind,
Time will take you and life forsake,
You’re a selfish whine, a wisp, a broken vine,
Of dead air, nothing left, shadow of a fake,
You were here? I do not recall. Not so,
You’ve spread your lies; I have come to know,
You were but a scream, a voice, a small part,
Now be gone, goodbye, good riddance, depart.

absolutltly perfect, would be if you could get a photo of a BIG dog lifting its leg on the sign to void its bladder.
I'm late in responding to you, but we've been busy and I wanted to give the poem my full attention.
Protesters in general are a miserable lot.
[Mr] T
And I have to think twice about the person who has a pic of a dog peeing just lying around, ready to photoshop. :-))
But I love your idea.
[Mr] T
It was just a mental image that came to mind from the '04 campain where that dog was doing his business on a Kerry Sign.
I would love to see that. Without too much trouble, is it possible to post it here?
And your mental image was very visual. Thanks.
[Mr] T
I no longer have that one of the dog lifiting his leg on a Kerry sign or the leaving a calling card on a Kerry sign that was laying on the sidewalk. Perhaps StarCMC, or 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub have a copy or have an idea as to who might have a one.
That is funny.
Excellent, and Thanks for the quick response.
[Mr] T
Thanks--but it's not neccessary at all! I appreciate it thougt. Protestors (and most democrats) say they support the troops and say they are patriotice but they're lying about both big time. But then lying is par for the libs. They have to lie and doing so fools the ignorant.
