SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny on Sat., Oct. 25, 2003 in Wash., D.C.

D.C. Chapter ^ | Tuesday, October 7, 2003 | Kristinn and Angelwood

[kristinn]

For too long, America's fighting men and women have been laboring on a two-front war not of their choosing: The front against terror and tyranny that they volunteered for, and the flank that we must defend for them against efforts by the media and leftists to undermine their morale and resolve.

All summer long, and now into fall, our brave men and women have been doing great work in Iraq, Afghanistan and other areas around the world eliminating terrorist threats to our security while bringing freedom to oppressed people.

Those efforts have been buried under an onslaught of biased reporting and political maneuvering by the enemies of freedom at home and abroad.

On Saturday, October 25 at 11 a.m., patriotic Americans will gather at the Capitol in Washington, D.C. to stand up for our troops and reiterate our support for them, their Commander-in-Chief, America and the war on terror.

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing, their friends and families, and all who support our troops and their mission are encouraged to attend. Nothing but a strong public showing will do. Those in uniform are making great sacrifices. The least we can do is give up one day to say "thank you!" to them.

What: The Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny

When: Saturday, October 25, 2003, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Where: The West Front of the Capitol Building at 3rd Street, on the Mall.

Bring: American and Gadsden flags (large and small,) service and Blue Star flags, and signs bearing messages of support for our troops.

Confirmed Speakers:
The Honorable Robert K. Dornan
Niger Innis
Blanquita Cullum
Rebecca Davis.

More speakers to be announced soon.

This rally will be held rain or shine.

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.

This will be the 6th rally in the last 18 months we have sponsored. We haven't done them all by ourselves and we are most appreciative of the help we have received. We humbly ask once again for any help that can be provided to send a message of support for our troops. Please click here to help.

Special thanks to Registered for the logos.

Thought you'd like to see what the DC Chapter is planning while I give this thread another bump to the top.

Eagles Up bump.

We'll miss you, Fred. You're one of the "regulars" at these things. I think one of my better rally photos is one of you standing in the crowd at Constitution Gardens on January 18th... on snow-covered ground in 9 degree temps - with rosy cheeks.

Antiwar movement as seen by liberal media in Mallard Fillmore:

Above is a great comic illustration of what many in ANSWER, including their leaders, are like.

(If your local paper doesn't carry Bruce Tinsley's great Mallard Fillmore comic, ask it to carry media-bias fighting Fillmore: King Features, telephone 212-455-4000.)

You're doing good work over there, nerd. They do need to know that the overwhelming majority of regular folk back home are supportive of them and worry about their safety. A friendly face and a kind word is probably some of the best medicine these guys and gals can get; after phone calls to loved ones back home, of course.

Fry Mumia per frame 3 of above comic.

See comic above. "Why call it ANSWER? It's the World Workers Party."

[tgslTakoma]

You'll find that FReepers in person are some of the very best people you could ever want to know. It will be good to meet you. How does that saying go?... (para)There are no strangers here, only friends we haven't met.

P.S. If you're driving in, fill your car with friends and bring 'em along!

[tgslTakoma]

Eagles up for our brave troops and may our enemies hear our voices.

Our enemies will hear our voices - loud and clear.

Looking forward to visiting and FReeping with you again, LisaFab!

"You shouldn't have taken the brown acid at Woodstock" chant works perfect for the leftists in frames 2 and 3 of above comic.

[tgslTakoma]

It's a beautiful site for a pro-troops and pro-freedom rally - with the US Capitol Building just behind our planned stage area, and a wonderful view of the Washington Monument from the stage.

It will be great to meet you, armymarinemom, and to thank you in person for your sons' service.

[tgslTakoma]

Will be there! Passing the message along!

Terrific! And thanks for passing the word along to all you know... I guarantee that it will not be 9-degrees on October 25th!

[tgslTakoma]

Thanks, Norm, for the encouraging words. We can't let the media and leftist groups do with the war on terror and our soldiers what they did during Vietnam. We may not be a perfect country, but there's darn-sure none better.

Pinging our resident cANSWER investigative reporters... some links for appalachian dweller, por favor?

[tgslTakoma]

I keep some handy in my vehicle, in case somebody asks about the one I have on my window. I blew a chance to get one to a VVIP a while back. Can't let that happen again. Coop, if Angelwood doesn't have one, I'll save one for you.

[tgslTakoma]

OOPS! I guess I should have read a little further.

[tgslTakoma]

We have a really hardworking webmaster and webmistress. They did good work putting the site together (and keeping it together), didn't they?

Angelwood, please tell Mark Phelps thank you for his work.

[tgslTakoma]

I think Mallard (or Bruce Tinsley) must be a FReeper...
