Wk. 167 - Legionnaires Hold Down the Corner, Wk 168 - Slow Day in Olney: Olney, MD 03-14 & 28-09
April 02,2009

Posted on 04/02/2009 5:39:25 PM PDT by trooprally

WEEK 167 - March 21,2009

Four dedicated Legionnaires held down the corner while the FReepers were in D.C. supporting our troops against everyone except the anti-war, anti-troop A.N.S.W.E.R. group.

The Legionnaires included Carl (WWII - Army), Francis (WWII - Army), Glenn (WWII - USMC), and Halsey (USMC - Korea). We couldn’t have a better bunch of heroes watching our corner.

The Legionnaires didn’t pay attention to the Quakers since they had no idea how many of them were out.


WEEK 168 - March 28,2009

The Few, the Proud, the Patriots were back on the 28th, camera ready.

The 5 Patriots this Saturday included Dennis (Army - Vietnam) with Lurker Bill and FReepers Cindy_True_Supporter, {Mrs} Trooprally, and myself.

The moonbats did manage 6 for a while.

BELOW LEFT: Cindy_True_Supporter and me in back ground.BELOW RIGHT: Here I am, showing my best side.



BELOW: And the moonbats with some new signs. No Bushie signs anymore. And no anti-Obambi signs either. But I guess socialism is right down their alley.



And don’t forget the 4 Year Anniversary at Walter Reed this Friday. Weather may be damp but no rain for Friday night. And the new MOAB is painted and ready to go.


WARNING TO FREEPERS ATTENDING OLNEY

Some new money making SPEED CAMERAS have been installed on north bound Georgia Avenue right before you enter the main business district. Slow your speed after the light at King William Drive.

And a new one has been placed just south of Brookeville, between Brookeville and the Longwood Community Center.




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.

You are welcome from the Olney patriots. The warmer weather is really nice. When it is hot the trees provide shade on our corner.

Nice jacket, absolutely.

Did you notice what Buford and I were wearing when talking to Bruce at WR?
