Free Republic

<p>Sen. Arlen Specter must feel like one lucky man today. He wasn’t in his Capitol Hill offices when MAF Chairman Melanie Morgan, Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee, Freepers and Free Republic founder Jim Robinson, and other patriotic citizens stormed his office to demand he reverse his position supporting the porkulus bill, aka the Barack-Blowing-Through- Dollars-Scheme.</p>

<p>Just checked the airlines. Looks like we can get reasonably priced tickets to DC. Will arrive Sunday night. Available to protest Porkulus Monday and Tuesday and return to Fresno as a free man on Wednesday.</p>

Since I don’t watch FOX, or really any “news” channels since the election, the Military channels receive by attention. Military Channels are a lot better than listening to than the dribble about Obambi and his first coming. So I plagiarized the tank saying. This was a good week in Olney. We had 9 Legionnaires, lurkers and FReepers. They were Legionnaire Glenn (USMC - WWII), Legionnaire Dave (Army - WWII) and his friend, Edith, Lurkers Bill and Mike, and FReepers Cindy_True_Supporter, GunsAreOK, iMacMan and myself. All pics are by iMacMan. Since iMacMan got to Olney early this week he got us...

In the face of a bitter cold, but clear and starry 12 degree night, we manned all four corners at the front gate. A decision was made to not put up the MOAB because of the wind and the extreme cold which makes the PVC frame very brittle. Some also discovered a not so well known tobacco fact. That is, extreme cold makes smoking cigars difficult. The cold actually puts cigars out by taking away the heat of the cherry. So one has to keep puffing or keep talking. Can’t do both on a very cold night. Trooprally turned his...

Our very own iMacMan Cometh to a very, very cold Olney after several weeks being off, after finally getting his car repaired. Along with his appearance cometh his super great pics (BELOW) of passing supporters. In case you are interested, here is the link to the original 1973 movie, The Iceman Cometh starring Lee Marvin. One pic that iMacMan did not get was the lady who took both hands off the steering wheel and gave us two thumbs up. And this is the reason that we are in Olney, and some of us Walter Reed, every weekend. BELOW: Red Banner...

Our numbers were small and got smaller as 2 of us left early for our Pro Israeli Rally in D.C., but we proudly stood our ground against an unexpected large number (9) of “Quackers”. Unexpected because we thought several of the moonbats would have gone down to D.C. to support Hamas. Patriots in attendance Saturday were Legionnaire Halsey (USMC - Korea), Lurker Bill, 3DJoy, Cindy_True_Supporter, 3DJoy and myself. Cindy_True_Supporter and I left around 11 AM since we needed to be in D.C. early to stake out our position. 3DJoy followed after the Olney FReep which had some excitement themselves ....

Fraxinus and [Mr] Trooprally RonGKirby and me VictoryNY Lurker Bill It's getting cold in DC. Tomorrow will be even colder. Possibly in the single digits when the DC Freepers man the streets and keep the perps away and down the block. Pray they're able to make it through the night. Sadly, I won't be there. I need to pick the wife up at the airport. MOAB Slogan Contest Current MOAB has been in use for some time and is starting to show a lot of wear and tear. Time for a new one.

Karl Rove wrote Let's Be Worthy of Their Sacrifice in the Wall Street Journal on 2 Jan 2009. He closed with this thought , “May the New Year bring safety to all who wear our country's uniform, success in the missions they so passionately believe in, peace and comfort to their families, and reunion with all whom they love.” First AAR of the New Year and as you can tell from the accompanying pictures the Goracle was warming up some other part of the world. Larry McCan, a lifer of fifteen years, was waiting for his squeeze to pick him...

Santa looks in on a car full of kids. Tells them they're all getting coal in their stockings! Sent them all off crying. BAD Santa! Notice you'll never see Mr Trooprally and Santa together in the same picture? Lurker Bill Mr Scrooge! What's the CO2-friendly equivalent for coal?

This coming week is Olney’s 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY. The Olney Patriots look forward to seeing a lot of our friends. We’ll be set up by 10AM and waiting for you all. We’ll retire afterwards for R&R at Dave’s Bistro. All the Olney FReepers, regulars and occasional FReepers, we wish everyone a safe and prosperous NEW YEAR!! This past week Cindy_True_Supporter was back. Her mom is doing better, allowing Cindy to make it back to Olney.

Walter Reed - Week 191, December 12, 2008, Busy Season for DC FReepers A very cold Friday night and we broke out cold weather gear including hand warmers to stay warm. Hot coffee helped ward off the chill. Many drivers honked in support of the troops as they passed by our signs and flags. Halfway down a long block several moonbats stood like mannequins with their morbid messages serving as a grim reminder as to why we are there. The bus with its wounded warriors and their families returned at 9:50pm. NEWS FROM THE FRONT GATEPlea Deal wants to share...

Warning - Warning Will Robinson TROOPRALLY, Do not try deep frying a turkey in 30 degree weather!! And don’t leave the turkey outside while it takes 90 minutes for the oil to reach the minimum 325 degree temperature, it will also become super cold, the oil will drop to 50 degrees, never to come back up!! And so dinner started an hour late. Luckily we had plenty of chaffing dishes keeping all the other food hot and ready. But before the official D.C. Chapter Christmas Party started, a hearty but cold 8 Patriots FReeped the "Quackers" in Olney. They were...

After almost two years of the most ethical congress, the economy is in the toilet. But not to worry, Charlie Rangel has surrendered one of his rent controlled apartments in Harlem but claimed a homesteading tax break in DC. Everything is going to be OTAY when ZEROBAMA’S Three Stooges economic team takes over and reinvents...

“Billie” (as in a man that has no manly traits) had to sneak into his book signing event at the All Souls Unitarian Church, even with 3 police officers standing by the main entrance. He was a wussy when he sent out his sheeple to bomb and kill Americans, and he still is a wussy. Kristinn put up a thread alerting him to our protest and that could have been one reason that he moved his event to the church. When the manager of Busboys and Poets Terrorists establishment saw us on the sidewalk, he quickly showed us a flyer...
