"A Gathering of Eagles" Are they just itching to get violent?

[cali]

Because it sure looks that way. The freeps are trying to get a large number of people to DC on the 17th of March to "protect" the Wall from peace protesters. They're working themselve into a lather about how the protesters are out to desecrate the Wall. Malkin's in on it and Dr. Laura and a slew of others. To me it looks like they just want to instigate something ugly.

Freeperville has whole forum about it. Let's just hope they fail in their attempt to get people to show up for this. If the past is prologue, that's likely.

1. I refuse to go there.

Are you talking about the Vietnam Memorial?

[cali]

2. Yes. n/t

[SpiralHawk]

20. Hell they hated that wall when it was being built

said it was unpatriotic.

I guess that's because so many republicons are chickenhawks who did not serve in Nam (Like commander AWOL and Five Deferments Cheneney) and hate, hate, hate to be reminded that others, like John Kerry, did.

[ShortnFiery]

3. These Bastards are delusional - let's not support their illness? n/t

[cali]

4. I think it's good for people to be aware of this

Information is NOT supporting their delusions.

[ShortnFiery]

6. Well it's a two edged sword - let's not contribute to their pathetic

publicity seeking efforts by super-broadcasts. After all, they (Right wing ideologues) create a pathetic world ... don't want their ruling our country anymore - refuse to broadcast their delusions. :shrug:

[JuniperLea]

10. Know thy enemy

I think it's a very good idea to keep an eye on them and to discuss it here.

[PDJane]

5. Violence defines these folks........

And gives them someplace to vent all that righteous anger.

Nut bars.

[catmandu57]

7. Given their past history of turnouts

I'm sure they'll have more than enough porta potties for everyone who attends.

[JuniperLea]

8. You beat me to it!

They are big on low turnouts:)

[ProgressiveFool]

19. LOL - they're on it

I hope someone remembers to order the Port-O-Johns and trash cans, so the WALL area isnt turned into a monumental garbage dump. I am being serious...I DO hope somsone is in charge of the LOGISTICS

27. ah... gotta love it. The responsibility crowd hopes someone else will do it

and he's serious... :eyes:

I'm not how many they will need for 4 people though. Every time I think I cannot be astounded by what total fucking morons these people are, they surprise me again. What's next?

[Redstone]

9. "Eagles," my ass. Self-aggrandizing, much?

Redstone

[catmandu57]

13. More like turkey vultures

than eagles, ugly carrion cleaners.

[semillama]

29. Hey, lay off the turkey vultures

Unlike Freepers, they serve a vital and important role in the animal kingdom. Plus they're some of the most energy-efficient flyers around. They're also better to look at than most freepers.

I guess there is one point of commonality between Turkey Vultures and freepers: both use vomit as a defense when threatened.

[htuttle]

11. At the height of Bush's popularity, they could barely scrape up enough 'counterprotestors'...

...to hold a proper football game.

I'd suspect the backwash has evaporated quite a bit since then.

[unpossibles]

12. who the hell would desecrate the wall?

seriously.

That is nothing but propaganda to dehumanize peaceniks to their listeners or make themselves feel better or something.

Not attacking you - actually thanks for the heads up. I like to know what idiocy they are up to next.

[FVZA_Colonel]

24. It has to be the most prominent Anti-War symbol in America.

Why would they want to desecrate it? And even if it wasn't, there's no proof that this is going to happen. It's just a bunch of right-wing idiots working themselves to a froth.

[northzax]

14. sorry, couldn't resist posting this

This is one of the most important gatherings in America's history. Every bit as important as how many of those Revolutionary War Soldiers braved the Winter to win this country its Freedom.

[htuttle]

15. Sounds like they can't remember what 'Valley Forge' was called.

Geniuses...

:rofl:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

17. Nor do they seem to realize...

that there was more than one winter.

[northzax]

22. yeah, you can't make this shit up

The press conference we held today was attended by FOX, CNN, ABC Radio, AP, WTOP, WJLA, Age of Hooper and Jeff Gannon.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

16. 35 freeps will show

and none of the "expected" anti-war will show. Hence they can scream Victory!
They will have SaVEd the Wall.
ok.:eyes:

[northzax]

21. if only one shows, they 'win'

because no one is going to deface the Wall.

[ProgressiveFool]

18. What is it with Freepers and apostrophes?

Why do they hate each other so much?

[donheld]

23. They are NOT eagles, they are HAWKS!

We cannot let them get by with calling themselves eagles.

[TheBaldyMan]

26. correction they are shite-hawks.

I don't know whast the US equivalent is, take it from me - it's NOT complimentary.

[TheBaldyMan]

25. It's another straw man argument from FReepville.

claiming an intent where none exists within the anti-war movement.

Afterwards when no vandalism has taken place there will be a round of mutual backslapping on account of the FReeps 'protecting the wall successfully from turrists'.

They are dimwitted, isolated and in lock-step with Bushcorp.

Ask them about the Walter Reed scandal if you want to find out their true support for the troops.

[unpossibles]

28. I do have to give them credit though

it must be a challenge to slap someone else's back when their own head is firmly entrenched in their own arse. Then again, I guess they get pretty limber from all that spinning.
