(Vanity)Spontaneous Freep of Leftists in the Peoples Republic of the Upper West Side draws crowd!

Lately I look at people wondering if they are liberal democrats, and thinking if they say anything leftist what I would say in return.

[Yardstick]

Gutsy and successful solo Freep *Bump* !

> This all happened an hour ago.

I visited friends in the UWS just yesterday, and it was my first time at Fairway - which I totally loved. Amazing that the City has better food/produce stores than upstate.

We passed through maybe two hours after you, and there were no signs, no politicos outside at all. You (and the cold wind) must have disheartened them. :)

Wow, what a story... BRAVO, finnman! A one-man FReep with a child in a stroller, no less! :-)

Thanks, although my wife is less than thrilled I did this with my boy with me, I felt empowered by having him with me. If I don't fight for him, what's the point of fighting at all. These leftist dirtbag would prefer to make it easier for Islamists to kill my son. And hell, the Rat brainiacs bring their kids along to the anti-war death marches. Why shouldn't we bring our kids along to our protests.

Way to GO!

Cheers from Jersey!

Make the leftist crawl back under their rocks.

[Rainbow Rising]

Excellent work. These "progressives" are nothing more than bullies. Stand up to them and they wither away. I only hope that I have the presence of mind to follow your example if I'm ever in a similar situation.

[hellinahandcart]

Wow. EXCELLENT.

Thank you!

[hellinahandcart]

"Hellway". LOL

My ex and I used to shop at the Uptown Fairway. It's on around 137th and (get this)"Marginal Street" (when I first saw the street sign I said "Well,they said it, not me" :D). No matter when you go it's alway packed with people, a total free-for-all. Before major holidays it's like guerilla shopping. But that store is the greatest.

And they have the best prices on cheese that I have ever seen.

We need people like you as poll watchers on Election Day, especially a bit further north .. right up near Bill's office. The dems have "a table" today but will be handing out cigarettes on Tuesday, to encourage the homeless to vote. Last year, some of the voting booths had only two switches working - Democratic and Liberal. As I recall, there were not enough volunteers to prevent electioneering in front of the polling places.

You're right about McCall and I hope the black community wakes up to reality. Bill and Hill shoved it to them big time in NY!!!

[hellinahandcart]

I did notice a Golisano sign in a garbage pail right outside the 72nd street subway station.

I am laughing so hard I'm crying...

[RikaStrom]

Oh wonderfully done. I am so sorry that man lost his son, and I am glad that he stood up with you to the greenie.

Nice parting shot on McCall.

[John Lenin]

Best stroy I have heard all day !

[hellinahandcart]

That means there are 4 lone conservatives walking the isle of Manhattan.

There are actually quite a few city freepers. We even get together once in a blue moon. I would have thought there weren't enough conservatives in Manhattan to fill a booth in a diner, but I was wrong.

And, while liberals make up about 70% of this town, 30% of 10 million is a lot of people.

Who all feel like they're they only conservative in the entire city. That's how I felt before I found FR, and I realized there were a whole bunch of other people like me during the rallies after Election 2000. People driving down Broadway would see our totally-unexpected Bush/Cheney signs and go NUTS--cheering, honking their horns, pumping their fists. We made their day.

And I feel like things could change here just a little. Something is different. I suspect there are many people out there who are "mad as hell and not going to take it anymore". They might even *think* they are democrats.

[TLBSHOW]

That was a great freep. Thanks for sharing it. I encourage others to do it and watch what happens. FReep em GOOD!

[catfur]

BRAVO for you finnman.

Congratulations!!!! on your most excellent FReep.

What a wonderful thing you did for that man whose son was killed on 9/11. I wonder how many times he's wanted to shout at those pukes or if he's ever done it on his own. I know you went home with your heart pumping,.... I'll just bet that man did too.

God Bless you and btw loved the McCall put down too. FReepers rule.

Then you oughta love how i saw a bunch of Liz Krueger signs ripped off the lamposts in the garbage also. I wonder how that happened....hmmmmmmmmm.

[hellinahandcart]

Liz Krueger has been BURYING me in paper mail this week. It all goes right into the trash.

Millions of trees have died for that Greenie witch. How's that for irony?

[finnman69]

It's a good thing to be prepared for. And I see after today it also take practice.

I plan on practicing more often.

My daughter was at Fairway about an hour before you. Too bad she missed it, she would have called me immediately. Bravo!
I had my fill of sidewalk socialists who hang out at Fairway.
