War protesters allowed to spray paint the U.S. Capitol
Capitol Chief of Police tell officers not to arrest anyone
Dear Tammy,
During last Saturday's Washington rally protesting the war in Iraq, hundreds of anti-war protesters were allowed to desecrate government property by spray painting the Capitol with anarchist symbols. I did not see or hear any report of this in any of the mainline media outlets!
Capitol Police Chief Phillip Morse ordered his officers to fall back and allow the protesters to exercise what he called "their First Amendment rights" to spray paint the Capitol steps with graffiti. Defending his actions, Morse said, "The graffiti was easily removed by the staff. It is our duty and responsibility to protect the Capitol complex, while allowing the public to exercise their freedom of speech." He even ordered his officers not to arrest anyone!
The war protesters were given access and leniency to deface government property. According to Family Research Council, public employees had to come in on their day off, at taxpayers' expense, to clean up the mess the protesters left behind.
To see comments on this issue by Sen. Wayne Allard of Colorado, click here.
The Capitol Chief of Police takes his orders directly from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, one of the demonstrators' most outspoken allies! Take Action
E-mail Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and ask that she take action to have those who spray painted our Capitol arrested. Furthermore, she should publicly state that this kind of activity will not be condoned in the future. If you desire to speak with her office in addition to sending the e-mail, her direct number is 202-225-4965.
Forward this e-mail to your friends and family and ask that they take action.
Click Here to Email Speaker Nancy Pelosi Now!
If you think our efforts are worthy, would you please support us with a small gift? Thank you for caring enough to get involved.
Sincerely,
Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman American Family Association
P.S. Please forward this e-mail message to your family and friends!

Even more so because of crappy reporting by the staff of The Hill. No pictures, no video, it wasn't even on the DC news the next morning. The first I heard of this was a phone call from a friend on Monday.
I like how they turn it into a beg-a-thon at the end, though.
:hi: Proud!!!!

6. I have watched every video on youtube |

and looked at a gazillion pictures, since I was on a quest to disprove the spittee's claims. And you guessed it, nada.
Didn't happen.
I will never forget all those cops standing in front of the steps to the capitol. That was the eeriest site. :scared:
:hi: Wolvie!! How's the weather down there? It's all of 19 degrees here. LOL

Admiral Loinpresser says being in the room when Hillary was booed was one of the highlights of his life. :rofl:
You'll love the admiral. We tried to drag him to DC with us last week.

"would you please support us with a small gift" |
|
The real reason for this e-mail.
I'd say the AFA is shameless, but I already knew that. They, like Fred Phelps, blamed the death of W.Va. miners in the Sago mine on the community turning from god. I guess they need the money to look into the sexuaal orientation of more cartoon characters.

Oh, the outrage. He sure used a lot of !s. I love that he had to tell his followers to email Speaker Nancy Pelosi. That must kill him.

Remember my friend Sharon who was with me? She got this email today and immediately responded that she was there and it didn't happen. The person who sent it to her replied with an anti-liberal 'you are evil' rant that went back and forth all afternoon. Sharon is a tough cookie. I know better than to argue with her. LOL

11. I just scanned AFA's website. |

Obviously, Wildmon and his fruitcake followers have no problem consuming mass quantities of illegal hallucinogenics.

18. I think they have their "thousands" mixed up |
|
They said only a "few thousand" attended the Jan 27 march, while "hundreds of thousands" attended the march for anti-choice. I guess they're just confused.
:hi: sis!

23. There had to be at least 500K |
|
in order to march up Constitution & down Independence 35 abreast, for the front of the march to come back & meet up with those who were STILL ON THE MALL, and for people to keep on coming down Capitol Hill in those numbers for over an hour & a half!

that it might be a good idea to suspect any email from that organization, since you know what has been said here is false.
