Band of Mothers pickets Congress to fund our Troops - They need our help - July 8, 9 & 10
June 18,2008

Posted on 06/18/2008 4:54:33 PM PDT by trooprally

I received this email from Bev Perlson, founder of Band of Mothers" and mother of a four tour soldier. Bev has been a regular in front of the Cannon Building over the last year or so, rain, shine, cold.

She needs help. She is usually the only one out there trying to call attention to the DemoRats "cut 'n run" surrender tactics.

Just several weeks ago Bev and RonGKirby, Eagle and FReeper, were harassed by Code Pink. The harassment was so bad that the Capitol police had to step in and move Code Pink out of her permitted area.

Contact Bev Perlson at Band of Mothers" if you can attend.

Bev has done several one-woman multi-day pickets on the Hill over the past (year?) many months. I thought you stood with her on an occasion or two. I know that several Freepers have joined her in the past. Bev is the gutsy gal who went into Murtha's office and gave 'em what-for a few months back, causing the cowards in Murtha's office to call a battalion of Capitol Police to surround her and ask her for ID.

P.S. How's your butt-kicking foot?

Bev is also the one who got into Medea Benjamin’s face at Walter Reed one Friday night (in March I think) and had Medea running scared all night.

D.C. Chapter Master Ping List

Just a reminder that Bev Perlson will be in front of the Cannon Building supporting our troops.

She needs you help. Last time she was there Code Pink gave her such a hard time the Capitol police had to step in and move CP along.

It has been confirmed that a CP member dropped a lighted match on Bev’s back pack and stuff. She needs help to watch her back.
