Movie stars and singers from the countries that fell to the communist in the years after World War 2. Played right into the hands of the Reds. In a way they became puppets. They loved it.

Imagine this at the home of a hollywood actor. ( Look here at a little something from Castro of Cuba. he says to a friend.

His stupid friend says cool.

Hollywood and the mainstream media are the ones that have brainwashed at least 50% of the whole country with communist ideas. As has the govt. Passed commie like laws.

Stop funding Hollywood and email and call your elected officials and demand we get out of the UN now. They are a front for China and Russia.

This 4th of July. Get ready and rested for the Protest of the UN July 14th at The UN and all across America for those that can't get to New York City.

FReep City Hall's and the UN across America July 14th against the UN and Gun control and just the thought that the UN is a commie org. Join in everyone and stand up for FReedom!

I would love to see all New York FReepers at the UN. If you can't make it then FReep city halls where ever you live. Hand out flyers and hold signs and tell the people help is on the way.

There should be no excuses allowed to get in the way of this important FReep.

just to let everybody know, PayPal is working very smoothly. i recommend it. even though there's an $0.85 added charge for each $25 deposit, it reserves your slot immediately when using a credit card as dave did.

Heritage Foundation UN Assessment Project Survey

What do you think the United States should do about the United Nations?

In May, we were voted off the UN Commission on Human Rights for the first time since we founded it in 1947.

This vote was orchestrated largely by Cuba and communist China, to retaliate against the U.S. for criticizing them. These outrageous human rights violators, as well as Syria, Vietnam, and Libya, are members in good standing.

Congress and the Bush administration are deciding on many questions about the UN and international treaties right at this moment.

It’s imperative that they have the input of grassroots conservative Americans – people like you – as they make these decisions that will affect our lives for decades to come.

Your answers will remain confidential. Total tabulated results will be given to Congress, the Bush administration, and the media. Thank you for your valuable and essential participation.

believe it or not, some bus companies prohibit food. the company we're using is cool with it as long as we don't make a mess, etc.

the drinking part mainly refers to alcohol. the bus company can look the other way, but not if we get out of hand.

i KNEW there was something i forgot! good question. let me call the bus company and make sure they allow smoking. if so, we can work something out. probably should confine it to the back or something though. i'll post the bus company's answer tomorrow.

or maybe we should call a california democrat and ask him to form a committee to decide this issue for us. ROFL.

Very Important Question: Will there be a smoking section? (nicotine addict)

just called the bus company. as much as i can't stand cigarette smoke, i'm still sorry to say that the word from them is that smoking is absolutely not allowed. they were emphatic from the start. i even pushed it. she paused, but gave me the primary reason why they just couldn't do it -- bus companies tend to get a large percentage of elderly riders; for some, the smell in the fabric is a big deal.

would you be able to make it if we had a single rest/smoke/stretch break in each direction, about midway? i'd hate to not have you ride with us because of this issue. or if you have any other ideas, please let me know.

right. i started with the count of trt member riders even though deposits hadn't yet come in. by wednesday i'll be updating the number regularly. we're at a 'check is in the mail' count of 33 seats left. plenty of room left for cigarette fiends, tricorn heads, and flag bearers.

speaking of flags, i hope everybody knows about the nyc rule (as stated by trt-ny) that flags and signs can't be atop wood/metal sticks or poles; cardboard tubes are apparently the support of choice.

coincidentally, the batf has announced that it's inviting fbi friend lon horiuchi in to address any problems caused by cardboard tubes being cut too short. lon's motto: "nobody but your family will know i was there!"

Aha!!! I knew I saved all those perfectly good cardboard tubes for a reason! I have "in stock" probably 2 or more dozen very sturdy 18" long tubes... diameter just a bit bigger than typical paper towel tubes. If I can't make the trip, I would still be happy to make these dangerous tubes available to you.

Rather Die Then Be Your Slave

I do not wish this life to pass away
But life presents such possibilities - Each and every day
I heard a calling that was right for me
I prayed for strength for what’s a head of me - Please show me the way

The sun rose high and burnt the night away
Who stood before me was my enemy - Don’t tread on me
He’s come to take away my liberties
I’d rather die than be a slave to thee - Don’t treat me this way

	CHORUS:   I’d rather die than be your slave
	I will survive, and you’ll feel my rage
	Its not a question of being brave
	I’d just rather die, than be your slave


	CHORUS

It didn’t matter who shot first that day
They killed my brothers, they laid dead by me - I’m covered in their blood
We hit them hard we made them pay that day
We hung the traitors from the highest trees - No mercy from me

We lost a lot our pain was heavy
We sacrificed for GOD and country -  No more colony
Still held the ground that was in front of me
This was our price to pay for liberty - Still you hear me say

	CHORUS

Much time has past, we repeat history
Our toys have changed while man has stayed the same - Evil in his ways
Tribal families rule not over me
I will not let them rape our  liberties - We’ll die for them today
