O.K., you win.

We have not - yet - reached our goal
of ONE HUNDRED fired-up people
registered for the
"Activism 101" seminar
on SATURDAY, April 26, 2003
at the HACIENDA Hotel (near LAX)
from 8 am to 5 pm (cost = only $69)
(sponsored by the Los Angeles Chapter of the Free Republic Network,
and taught by the well-respected "Leadership Institute" from Washington, D.C.)
---> REGISTER ONLINE for "Activism 101" HERE <---

There appear to be THREE (3) primary reasons
why SOME of you have not yet registered for this AMAZING seminar:

1 - It costs TOO MUCH, 2 - It lasts TOO LONG, 3 - I need to wash my cat that day.

Like any good free-market capitalists, we have RESPONDED to your concerns, and are now proud to offer a special "Activism" seminar JUST FOR YOU, the time-, dollar-, and cat-conscious conservative activists of southern California:

We call this SECOND seminar
"Activism 102"
and it will be held on the SAME DAY (4/26),
at the SAME PLACE (HACIENDA Hotel, near LAX),

but this one: 1 - is FREE, 2 - only lasts TWO HOURS (from 5 pm to 7 pm)
i.e., it starts just AFTER the full-strength "Activism 101" seminar ends...

...AND we will provide a portable "catwash."

[RonDog]

Seriously, if you live anywhere near southern California, we need YOU to attend at least ONE of these "Activism" seminars.

I understand that most of you have LIVES, and FAMILIES, and JOBS - unlike the "anti-war" crowd.

And, I can certainly appreciate your very legitimate concerns about time and money.

We can call this FREE, two-hour post-seminar gathering at the HACIENDA Hotel a "summit meeting of local leaders," or an "after-action fellowship" - or even "Activism 102" - but WHATEVER we call it, we need YOU to be there - to help us plan for the post-Iraq future.

What should conservative activists do NEXT???

Now that we have liberated IRAQ,
some have suggested the we "Liberate HOLLYWOOD."

Others would like to "Boot BOXER in 2004." Or Recall Davis.

What do YOU think?

Can you join us SOMETIME on Saturday, April 26,
to help us plan our future strategy and tactics?

Will YOU be at "Activism 101" -
or at "Activism 102" -
or at BOTH?

Please RSVP - here on this thread, or via FReep-mail to me, privately.

[RonDog]

And HERE is a copy of the Word file (e-mail me for a copy) of our "Activism 101" flyer:

Do YOU want to...

Organize a MORE EFFECTIVE "pro-USA" rally?

Promote your message on TELEVISION, on talk radio, and
in local and NATIONAL newspapers and wire services?

Build a RAPID RESPONSE network of like-minded patriots
to join you at your NEXT event?

FReep the French, counter the "anti-war" protesters
and DEFEAT the DEMOCRATS in 2004?

LEARN to do all this (and MORE) at:

"Activism 101"

HACIENDA Hotel (near LAX)
8 am to 5 pm – SATURDAY - April 26, 2003

(This does NOT include LUNCH, but PARKING is FREE.)

Special Guest speaker (and secret weapon):
TED HAYES - homeless activist (and "pro-USA" rally leader)

Very good idea.

[Mama_Bear]

Seriously, if you live anywhere near southern California, we need YOU

Seriously, if I lived just a bit closer to So CA, I would be there, for sure.

Best of luck with your seminar. You all are doing good things down there. :-)

[RonDog]

Very good idea.

Thanks.

Can I put you down for ONE cat, or TWO?

[RonDog]

Seriously, if I lived just a bit closer to So CA, I would be there, for sure.

YOUR part of the country is NEXT...

Bob J sees THIS seminar as a prototype for similar "Activism" seminars - to be held all across the USA.

As I have posted elsewhere, if we are going to invest large chunks of our precious time in activism of ANY kind, we need to be MUCH MORE effective, IMHO - particularly in California, where, despite our considerable successes:

...the worst governor in recent memory just got re-elected,
...virtually ALL of the elected state officials will now CONTINUE to raise taxes, and to generate job-killing regulations,
...BOTH of our U.S. Senators and MOST of our U.S. Congressmen are still hard core "tax and spend" and anti-military,
...most of the local media (outside of talk radio and the Internet) is STILL more biased than Al Jazeera,
...MANY Hollywood activists have been promoting THEIR agenda MUCH MORE effectively than WE are,
...the "anti-war" crowd can get THOUSANDS of marchers, and we are lucky to get HUNDREDS.

[Mama_Bear]

YOUR part of the country is NEXT...

Great! :-)

[Rabid Dog]

Bump for a kitty wash!

Seriously, think about going down for this seminar! Kviteseid and I are going to do it and there is more room in the car.

[Only1choice____Freedom]

I used to wash my cat.

But the hair kept getting stuck on my tounge.

[Carry_Okie]

Sorry, I don't can drive 900 miles for a catwash, but I will try to help.

[Feiny]

I will try to attend, but cannot promise anything yet.

[Joy Angela]

Hillary Rodham Clinton
is OUT THERE!

You know she is, you know what she wants,
but you think her run for the Presidency
is Light-Years away!

Oh? 2004 is only NEXT YEAR!

And (if we're lucky to have this long)
2008 is just around the corner.

Let's do our BEST to not let it happen!

See you on Saturday the 26th!

[Bob J]

Bump!

[dirtboy]

Do you have to bring your own cat?

[Joy Angela]

Bump for Activism 101!

[HighRoadToChina]

Hi Mama Bear,

I live north of SF and I am still going! Sooo...

[Mama_Bear]

I live north of SF and I am still going! Sooo...

Well, now I feel guilty! LOL!

[Joy Angela]

See you there!

[Bob J]

Washing someone else's cat can get one into a fur flying session...heheh.
