Gathering of Eagles ^ | March 8, 2007 | GOE

The permit information is easily gotten from the National Park Service and Kristinn is working with them. NPS is being very limp (IMO) with regards to ANSWER's trying to block any opposing voices having a permitted location to gather. All that being said, the individual vets and supporters are moving forward with their plans. They are coming to the Wall, and all over the area surrounding the Wall, permit or not. The participant numbers have snowballed, even with hardly any "friendly" media support; almost all of the publicity has occurred via AlGore's internet.

With the Move America Forward caravan having begun yesterday, I hope the MSM will catch on that this event is going to happen, with or without their coverage. Of course, with their coverage our numbers would grow even larger.

See you there, R. Scott!

Yep. Depending on the weather, I will be wearing a dark suit with medals. If wet I will have a tan trench coat over it - with medals on the coat.

frankly, i don't think ANSWER is a bunch of commies. instead they seem to be a motley collection of every HATE GROUP, including MANY "NEO-NAZI" supporters.

at the last big rally in DC, MANY of their marchers were carrying yellow, diamond-shaped signs, emblazoned with large BLACK SWASTIKAS and/or "SS runes" & were loudly CHANTING:

"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM KILL THE JEWS. BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, KILL THE JEWS." ======>(fyi,at first, i thought i was "hearing things". this chant made me want to VOMIT.)

actually, i later "latched on to" one of the ANSWER leaders, who had come over to the FR counter-protest site & asked him about the CREEPS with swastikas/runes. he said, "International ANSWER does NOT believe in censorship, as the rightists do. we support free speech for all people, everywhere."

fyi, i do NOT consider it better to SUFFER racists TO BE INCLUDED IN your organization/march, than it is to BE a racist/anti-semite!

How many color guards do you have WITH rifles?

OK, OK, just joking, but for me it was temporary wishful thinking..

I doubt if they'll get into Arlington without first going thru the visitor center and taking a bus tour. Otherwise they'll have to hoof there way in and out. I doubt if they'll make it out. Most visitors there will lend a helping hand if they do get close enough to vandalize the Tomb.
