EVERYONE should check MoveOn's website for the protest in their area, and GET OUT THERE AND COUNTER THEM!!!!

The "surge" is an important strategy for the Iraqis and for us!

Come 'on FReepers! Get out there and show the pinkos what you're made of!

In any other setting the lefties would be petitioning the city council to have such obvious references to Christianity removed from public display...

Hmmmmm, you may have hit upon something there. An anonymous tip to the local ACLU office might cause the lefties to rethink their sacriligious use of crosses.

In any event, best of luck tomorrow. I hope that you don't stand out there alone, but if you do - take a camera, preferably video, in case the peace rioters get violent.

Thanks for pinging the California Norad ping list, Mr. S - I hope some other CA Freepers join johnqueuepublic, to take on the Moonbats. There is safety in numbers - especially when dealing with a bunch of radical, America-hating, leftwing, peace thugs.

Sadly, I think you are right. I don't know the answer to motivating a passive conservative base. How much worse does it have to get?

Some people won't do anything until the wolf is at their own door - and even then they will hesitate, or say "Somebody oughta do something."

If conservatives don't soon start standing up and shouting, it will be too late. If it isn't already.

You are absolutely right. I also think that conservatives are inclined to stay above the fray. Maybe it has something to do with how many of us were raised; to be respectful, considerate, thoughtful, and non-confrontational.

I might not be making that much of a difference in the overall scheme of things, but I don't want to get to the end of my life and have to say that I turned a blind eye to my freedoms being eroded away, or that I didn't stand up for those who were putting their lives on the line for me.

Even though I was quite young during the Vietnam war, still, I will forever be ashamed that I did not stand up for our military when they were treated so badly upon returning home. I can't change the past, but I will do everything I can now to make sure our military know how much I appreciate and support them.

There are lots of Lafayette conservatives... they're just very quiet and a little underground. There are some incredibly obnoxious leftists - parents and young heads full of mush - there.

Don't need to ask me how I know that.

But also some very level-headed parents and kids, too.

Not sure if this is indicative of the general level of interest, maybe people just dont like me...sniff...


:-)

But so far, have not received one call or a single email, hopefully something is happening but if it is I have not been made aware of it.

Uh oh, have a kid-conflict.

If you can reach the group that has flown the flags from the El Curtola overpass on 9/11 and many of the 11ths since 2001, you could get a good group. I don't know how to contact them, but I know they're local.

Have you emailed Brian Sussman at KSFO? There's an email link on their website:

http://www.ksfo.com

As you probably know, this is an issue of interest to him.

Have you been apprised?

Tonight at 6:00pm along the street north of Lafayette BART.

Wackjobs will be at the base of the hillside across the street doing their blood dance in front of a huge display of crosses purporting to give a rat's a$$ about our troops.

Pass the word.

PING!

Jan 11, 2007 6pm along the street immediately north of Lafayette BART station

Any of you going to be within striking distance, this evening? For you Antiochers, maybe on your commute through the area; whether by car on 24 or by BART?

Looking for some bodies to stand up for our troops AND their misson.
