iMacMan's and [Mrs] T's pics were so good this week, that I decided to post all but a few. For those with dial up, I believe your wait will be well worth it. ____________________________________________
No matter who you rooted for in the Super Bowl, both teams wore Red, & Blue.
This past Saturday we rooted for a special team, our military and the "Patriots" who support them. BELOW: Me and Fraxinus.
BELOW: We had several vehicles pass by that really appreciated our presence.
And then iMacMan caught our supportive "Patriots". He really shot some superb pics this week.
And double iMacman's TRIPLE PLAY
We had 10 "PATRIOTS" today. Our group included Legionnaires Halsey (USMC - Korea), Dennis (Army - Korea), and Lurker Bill, Cindy_True_Supporter, Eager, Fraxinus, iMacMan, VAFlagWaver, [Mrs] Trooprally and my self.
The moonbats managed 7, with two of them leaving early.
We had a Damascus HS senior who was a member of the Young Republicans stop by today. Her mom was shopping in the stores behind us so she decided to come out and talk for a while, actually a half hour. She promised to come back.
We also had a guy stop by who said he served in the Army in the 70s. He agreed with us as to our support of the troops but disagreed with the Iraqi war. Pic of guy (BELOW) with Cindy_True_Supporter and Dennis. I was picking up my sign to hit the corner since Cindy_True_Supporter and Dennis were there. A few minutes later Cindy_True_Supporter came over exclaiming "What an idiot!". Dennis was smiling, almost laughing at the guy, shaking his head. This guy had turned his conversation to 9/11 being an inside job along with the anthrax scare. He followed Cindy_True_Supporter and Dennis over to our group, but was quickly spurned with jeers.
And now the GOOD GUYS, the PATRIOTS.
BELOW LEFT: Halsey (back at us), Lurker Bill (in back ground), Dennis, me and [Mrs] T doing what she does best. BELOW RIGHT: iMacMan talking a break from shooting pics, and Fraxinus.
BELOW LEFT: Lurker Bill with Eager and Dennis in back ground. BELOW RIGHT: Better pic of Eager, with Dennis heading over Dennis (behind flag) with Fraxinus and iMacMan in back ground.
BELOW LEFT: Cindy_True_Supporter with her sign showing the of the hypocrisy of the moonbat Quackers. BELOW RIGHT: Halsey and Dennis trading war stories.
WALTER REED
March 28 is Walter Reed's THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!! Come on out and join us for a "real big shoo". Details as the planning unfolds.
REMEMBER
Next Saturday, same place, Georgia Avenue, MD Rte. 97 and MD Rte. 108 in Olney
NEW TIME - 10:15 AM to 11:45 AM
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.
But a lot of verbal engagement in Olney is always welcome.
If you live in northern VA and want a short cut to Olney See Post 39 Here. It's an easy 20 minute drive from the American Legion Bridge.
A special Thanks to a FReeper FRiend for enhancing the original plain type directions.
The Archive of Olney FReeps is here or in the LINKS section of Trooprally's ABOUT Page.
WEATHER UPDATES HERE.
[Mr] & [Mrs] T
Another good one!!!
Glad to see Freepers active around the country.
Check out this thread. We had an estimated 5,000 people show up Saturday to protest against a planned demonstration by members of Westboro Baptist Church. The cowards at WBC never showed up, but we had a great time.

A big bump to the Olney gang for their weekly dedication. I’m hoping to join you this Saturday and then head up to Westminster (keeping fingers crossed).
I ran into Eager several weeks ago at the bowling alley. My wife and I got our assigned lane and Eager was in the lane next to us. It was the first time I had the pleasure to speak with him. He’s a great patriot and has two adorable little boys. He’s another example of a local patriot who joined the ranks due to your weekly Freep in Olney (just like myself).
Job well done Olney gang!!!
Thank you all for giving your time to support the troops, patriotism & our wonderful American Way of Life
curses to the misguided & deranged code pink, moveon.org etc to ad nauseum.
great pix/great commentary
Love you all!
Thank You - Thank You
as the Olney gang bows.
Don’t look now. You are being smoothed above.
I read it earlier. Thanks back at you all for being out there. Sure glad Phelps’ inbred family is running scared.
Good idea linking your thread.

[Mr] T
I’ll most likely be heading up to Westminster myself. There is a Burger King close by. Do you want to car pool? I’ll drive so that I can smoke my ceegars.
[Mr] T
Till then, thanks and take care. Stay warm.
[Mr] T
FReepers are always a good, interesting group.
[Mr] T
well that sounds great but I dont want Mrs. T chasing me around with a stick!
Patriots, with giant hearts. Thank you for sharing these!
Great job “PATRIOT” FANS! Love your sign, Mr. T! Just when I thought the Olney AAR and pictures couldn’t get any better, you go and amaze me again! Awesome shots of those vehicles that really appreciated your presence. As always, you Olney FReepers ROCK! Thank you for doing what you do every single week.
OUTSTANDING!
And the people with thumbs-up were encouraged...you made their day.
Thanks!
Hey there!
Another great event and outstanding report. Those triple waves are awesome pictures.
Thank You, THANK YOU ALL!
