Defending the defenders

They’re in Washington D.C. now, defending the Vietnam Memorial Wall from the anti-war commies and dupes. I im’d with Justin yesterday afternoon, and he said there were a lot of Vietnam Vets and others at the hotel. So I’m waiting to hear what’s going on…hopefully there will be a lot of picture taking so we can vicariously live the experience through the people who attended.

Malfunction on the website prevents me from uploading more, I was just going to upload one where our side is facing the communists, and our boys are holding a banner that says:

GO TO HELL TRAITORS, YOU DISHONOR OUR DEAD ON HALLOWED GROUND

Ok, here it is….

I gather we have about 5,000 - and not as many commies showed up, but they’re going to have about three hours of speeches at the end of their ‘march’ where the cowards will be who chickened out of the ‘march’. Our guys are spread out defending the memorials from the paint throwing paint spraying tire slashing anarchists, socialists, and their ilk.

I’m so brave, I’m covering my face! Just like the terrorists I idolize.

In Washington D.C., the reports are that our numbers were the same as theirs.

But as you can see, there are more there than the MAF crowd. Picture courtesy of Skye who blogs at Midnight Blue. Skye is there.

Mike’s been live blogging for Skye and he was disappointed that CSpan completely cut out any reporting of the Gathering of Eagles, instead shining the PR light on the anti-war escapades of the commie freaks with mohawks, etc.

    That’s really cool, Jo, glad to hear it. There were people from this area who carpooled it, too. It’s just great to see the turnout.
