Blogs Weigh in on Gathering of Eagles III
Right on the Right ^ | 8-15-07 | Justin Higgins

Posted on 08/15/2007 11:36:42 AM PDT by RealTeen

What are the various blogs saying about the next Gathering of Eagles? Quite a bit, on both sides of the aisle. Here's what I found:

First up, from Maverick News Network, comes this great lead-in about the Eagles:

Just when the anti-American, pro-terrorist communists and anarchists at ANSWER thought it was safe to crawl out from under the sewer sludge they call home, and again attempt to intimidate our government into giving up the fight against terrorism, the Gathering of Eagles is primed to again offer a counter point of view in Washington, DC, in September.

Next up is a post from Hello Iraq, which echoes another post on the GOE site. Read it.

SWAC Girl is blogging on it, and describes the action in the following way:

This will counter the anti-war protesters headed up by MoveOn.org groups that plan to be in D.C. the same day to march on the White House. Let's join fellow pro-victory, pro-America patriots by swelling their ranks to overwhelm the anti-war protesters.

Chris Dickson is blogging about Move America Forward's cross-country tour, which is linking up with GOE III on September 15th to make this the largest pro-victory rally in the history of the United States. Chris writes:

American democracy will once again be showcased for the world on September 15th as a variety of groups are already gearing up for massive demonstrations on that day in Washington, D.C.

Move America Forward, the nation's largest non-profit, non-partisan grassroots group that vociferously declares their support for Operation Iraqi Freedom and the American soldiers committed to that effort, will culminate their nationwide caravan with thousands of flag waving and placarded demonstrators making a visible statement of support for American efforts to defeat terrorism and introduce democracy to Iraq.

A Newt One breaks out their drudge-style flashing alert to give news about GOE III. This one is very interesting, because A Newt One will have updates you can't get from anyone else, not even me (though I'll be bringing some of my own updates you can't get over there). The alert there reads:

A Newt One is honored and proud to be part of the Move America Forward/ Gathering of Eagles coalition that will lead a caravan of patriots to storm our nation's capital. The Caravan will cross America, west to east, beginning September 3rd and climaxing with a massive pro-Iraq war mission rally on September 15th on the national mall.

Help us give the anti-war crowd a combat boot in the mouth and show America that we were right to never waver in our support of the Iraq war.

Debbie Lee, from Move America Forward, will record a special message each day of the caravan that will be broadcast exclusively on A Newt One. Then, on September 15th, look for a special live double webcast from Washington DC on American Truth Warriors and The Halls of Valhalla!

And finally, and you knew this had to be coming some time, the folks on the other side of this fight (the anti-victory forces), are using the blogs to propogate their dis-information as well. A site apparently called Tampa's Back Door brings this message from a moonbat group:

The Gathering of Eagles is mobilizing on September 15 to try to intimidate us. The Department of Interior is threatening $10,000 and more in fines for lawfully advertising for this day. The forces are mobilizing to try to silence us as General Petreaus gives his report. As he calls for years more of war. The streets of DC cannot be silent on September 15.The streets of DC cannot be filled with warmongers as they spread their hate.

Apparently they'd prefer if the streets were filled with more anarchists, World Workers Party (communist) goons, and 9/11 "truthers." Yep, the freakshow is their option, and patriots are ours. We're not warmongers, we're people that believe we're fighting a righteous battle. That's the first blog report, there'll be more. Eagles up!

ANSWER's leaders, Brian Becker and Richard Becker aren't good peacemakers. They couldn't play nice with the others in the Worler's World Party, so they took their Hammer and Sickle and formed the Party for Socialism and Liberation Click here to view http://www.pslweb.org.

Note the prominent image of that murdering communist bastard Che incorporated in their organization's name on the home page. Hit "Education" and learn how communist they are.

And don't call out "Dick" to Richard Becker because both he and Brian Becker respond to that name.

I just got this from a friend

A veteran - - - ,,,whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America," for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand that.

Seems like the jerks at ANSWER fall into that category.

You said you went there and need a shower??

I had to go get some Napkins & Tissues to wipe the TEARS from my eyes , and get a Brown Bag to breath into to get my breathe I was LAUGHING SO DAMN HARD!!

MAN-That site--like ALL of them- Cracks me up! I think they didn't miss One Cliche (Get it? "Che"? "Cli-Che'"?!) in the Socialist Propaganda hand book! I really felt like writing to them telling them what a Great Job they did! but how Pathetically PREDICTABLE!

I mean though-reading that one ARTICLE " Legals Lies and IMPERIALIST's War on Terror "- I thought the editor was writting a SKIT for Saturday Night Live! (Hey! It's MY IDEA! I thought of it FIRST so let me call NBC (Whoever) up about it!!)

WHAT I NEVER UNDERSTOOD THOUGH is : What the HELL is these Socialists Interests and support for PALENSTINE??

Is it just because being for Palenstine is being ANTI-ISREAL? Cause Isreal is a Friend of the U.S.?

Talk about Brain Damaged??!!

Now, when you say “both respond to that name”, are you referring to attitude or personal preference?

OK I'm hijacking this thread...and no one can stop me.

Seriously, I've been working on signs for two weeks, and have a few ready.
I'd like some constructive criticism from the experts.
I've been told by a few people that one or two are pushing the enevelope and one is down right terrible.
I won't post those, but I will provide links for viewing.

I went to the Party for Socialism and Liberation site and found this picture under their headlines.

Anyone care to guess what is wrong with it?

The answer is below if you know how to reveal it..................

It's an Iraqi Soldier with an AK-47 guarding a school not an American "occupier"

actually, the Army is ISSUING AKs.

my brother-in-law, an Army JAG O-5, was OFFICIALLY ISSUED a "brand new Russian one" about a year ago "over there". Frank said that he liked the AK better than the M-16.

evidently, we seized so many AKs when saddam fell that the "powers that be" decided that "tech support, CSS & some CS troops" should be armed with them. (do we have a shortage of M-16 rifles???)

could be. i just don't know the answer to that.

otoh, i thought it was "interesting" that Frank was actually ISSUED an AK47. (while LOTS of GIs carried "battlefield pick-up" AKs during the RVN years, those were NOT ever an "issue item".)

just for the record, i frequently carried a "privately owned", sawed-off, Stevens, 12gage, double barrel shotgun and a 4" barrel,Model 27 S&W "over there".

note to readers: PLEASE don't bother telling me that carrying a privately-owned weapon was "against Army Regulations". ARs did NOT "come down from the mountain, graven into stone tablets". ARs are "for the guidance of the commander" ONLY. my CG was WELL aware of my carrying the shotgun, as he saw it daily (slung over my shoulder) at staff meetings.

to quote a flag officer i used to know, "I COMMAND this unit. I am NOT it's !@#$%^& "administrator", so don't tell me what some fat @ssed bureaucrat wrote in a regulation."
