Live Thread: Washington Journal 10/26/02, Patriots Rally for America/ Anti-War Demonstration

C-SPAN ^ | Saturday, October 26, 2002 | Kristinn

Friend of the D.C. Chapter, Adam Ramey is going up against ANSWER spokeswoman Peta Lindsay on C-SPAN's Washington Journal from 7:50 a.m. until 8:35 a.m. EDT today.

The discussion is a prelude to the dueling rallies on the Mall later today at 11 a.m.

The ANSWER rally is the usual collection of America-hating leftists gathering under the "anti-war" banner.

The D.C. Chapter's Patriots Rally for America is being held to support America, our troops and the war on terrorism.

Both rallies will be broadcast by C-SPAN today.

Peta was absolutely excellent in what she conveyed on CSPAN this morning

Yep. It appears to me, there's nothing in the attic but dust.

Hi guys! I had posted to the other thread that the pro-palis were setting up but that was a mistake! Here's the new message from Dave Dilegge in DC:

BREAKING! BREAKING! BREAKING! CORRECTION! MAJOR CORRECTION!!!IT WAS NOT THE PALI FLAG FLYING - IT'S THE IRAQ FLAG!!! THEY ARE THERE TO SUPPORT THE FREEPERS!!! THEY ARE CARRYING SIGNS SAYING "SUPPORT MILITARY ACTION AGAINST SADDAM: SAVE IRAQ'S FUTURE" AND "IRAQ UNITED: WE WILL NOT BE DIVIDED"! DAVE SAYS THEY ACTUALLY HUGGED AND MADE A PACT TO WORK TOGETHER! THE IRAQI CONTINGENT GAVE OUT FREEPERS A THUMBS UP!

Anyone want to start a pool on how long bruin_gold is going to last on Free Republic?

10....9.....8....7....6....5.....

[BADROTOFINGER]

Nice. I have a question for you tho. If the GOP is so evil, why dont they just side with the Arabs and push for Israel's immediate destruction? Much easier path to all of that oil, and probably a life long freindship between the GOP and Arab nations on the basis of killing them nasty Jews alone. Why all of the BS when a more direct route is sitting right there? Just wondering...JFK

IT'S THE IRAQ FLAG!!! THEY ARE THERE TO SUPPORT THE FREEPERS!!!

Well blow me down. I never would have seen that coming!

Understandable mistake. I have an aversion to the Iraqi flag, because I will never forget walking past their mission to the UN after 9/11 and noticing that their flag was not at half-mast, as every other nation's was.

I am a Republican and have been for years

LOL! Riiiiiiight.

On a par with, "I've always been a skeptic, but this Art Bell is really on to something..."

[Notforprophet]

Go DC Freepers! "Free Free Iraq!"

Latest: Angelwood, Freethehostages, klt (who drove all the way down from NY), Sauropod, tippin and Lygeia have just arrived. Plenty of patriotic music playing: Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA", and lots more contemporary music. Park police are there to keep an eye on things. Everything looking great. Leader of the Iraqi contingent touched base with our folks: Imam Hushan al-husiany. Dave says they are adamant that they want Saddam OUSTED

I am a Republican and have been for years but will soon register as an Independent after learning that the Zionist (JINSA) group has hijacked the Bush regime

You know very well we're only supposed to hop in the shower when major news is breaking. I can't believe I have to explain this to you, #41461.

[CDHart]

I have C-span on now -- 10:00 a.m. Central -- they're just replaying the Washington Journal program. Are they actually going to cover the rally?
