Word's out: Protest at Hillary's tonight (Freeper Named In Washington Whispers Article!!!!

Conservative protesters are rounding up the troops to heckle New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and her Senator guests at a fundraiser in her Northwest Washington home Tuesday night. "It ought to be fun," says protest organizer Kathy Wood, who'll be holding her trademark sign, "Corrupt Democrats Turn Here!"

Wood, of the Washington chapter of the conservative Free Republic, says the focus of the 5:30 p.m.-8 p.m. protest is to encourage Senate Democrats attending the fundraiser to approve the judicial nomination of Hispanic Republican Miguel Estrada.

What's interesting about this protest–complete with signs and flashlights–is how polite the Republicans plan to be. Instead of jeering the senators and high-dollar donors as they get out of their car at the Clinton residence, they plan to stay a block away at the corner of Massachusetts Avenue and Whitehaven Street, just below the British Embassy and veep's house. Says a notice to protesters: "Out of respect for her neighbors, we will not protest directly in front of her house. Instead, we'll be on the corner turnoff where all of the guests have to turn in."

But there's another reason for pushing the protest to near the busy intersection, adds Woods. "If we go up too far," she says, "nobody will see us."

Free Republic is one of those groups obsessed with the Clinton era. They've even written a cookbook titled "The Clinton Legacy Cookbook." See EBAY's link here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1979763521

Guess Bedard doesn't pay too much attention to his 401k.

How about that McAuliffe? He seems to show up where Freepers are! (remember --- he showed up for a picture with Freepers at CPAC!)

[Exit148]

Was with you all in spirit!

We missed you.

The Embassy has made some changes. They took out some of the sidewalk on Whitehaven and they put in a new fence and a concrete walkway in the middle of the yard where we always put our supplies. They have a gate and a very bright light at this walkway. On Whitehaven, they put a curb in and blocked off the driveway that went down a steep hill into their premises. Oh, the gas lines have been marked with tall yellow poles. Looks a bit different from our last freep. All the light poles were lit and it was brightly lit in the area so we didn't need our flashlights.

Good Job Angelwood. You always say the right things.

Glad to see the FREEP was a success.

Thinking of you today at that time!

[sauropod]

[Askel5]

I missed you too, Pod. Try to resume next year but just couldn't swing the time off this year.

Let's add that to the list of things we're obsessed about: Sen. Daschle's height.

I've called Tiny Tom's DC office and asked about the pay grade of the guy that always seems to appear with his podium step. Sometimes they're shocked enough to stay on the line as I ask if he's political staff. It's incredible, no matter where there's a microphone, that kiddy booster is always ready.

GASP!!!! I don't think I'm obsessed...naw... Others are obsessed maybe...but not me.. Hillary and Bill started saying this...but it ain't true...IS IT??

[carlo3b]

Hey guys, are you obsessed.... I don't think I know anyone that is REALLY Obsessed ..except maybe Slick And Hilldibeast... They said we are obsessed ...another Clinton era rumor, they started everything that is wrong with this country... ;)

[StarFan]

Actually, we're obsessed with the media who are the ones really obsessed with Clinton! That says it all.

Angelwood, so glad to read that FEW guests attended. It's hoped she invited $$McAuliffe to go to the trough one more time, while others, railroaded into perpetually giving, stayed away.

[RummyChick]

this is hilarious
I can imagine the shock on the other end. Has anyone ever answered the question or do they just hang up!

I know someone who sent little tommy a child's booster seat ..... hehe!

Of course, it's highly unlikely that he ever saw it but someone had to open the package.
