Free Republic to hold 'Thank Pres. Bush/Iraqi Freedom' Rally in DC today
IRAQIS TO HOLD ‘THANK YOU PRES. BUSH & AMERICA’ RALLY AT WHITE HOUSE

FORMER REP. BOB DORNAN & MUSLIM CLERICS TO SPEAK

WHEN: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2004, 1 P.M. TO 4 P.M.

WHERE: LAFAYETTE PARK, 16TH & H ST., NW, WASH., D.C.

(Washington) The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic, an independent grassroots organization, is sponsoring a rally with Iraqi leaders from across the country to demonstrate the deep appreciation of the Iraqi-American community for the leadership of President Bush in liberating their country from the terrorist dictator Saddam Hussein.

The Iraqis will also be offering their gratitude to the American people for the sacrifices they have made to fight terrorists in Iraq and around the world.

Muslim clerics and secular leaders, including several who have been to Iraq since the fall of Saddam, will be speaking. They will be joined on stage by former Rep. Bob Dornan and other Americans who share their belief that the U.S. must stay the course in Iraq.

1. I wonder how many 'Iraqis' and 'muslim clerics' show up
If I was an Iraqi, and even if I had supported any effort to remove Saddam, I wouldn't be caught dead with these asshats who are just using me politically.

4. Don't worry
I expect B-1 Bob and one or two freepers, and an Indian guy they grabbed off the street ( they can't tell the difference) will round out the attendees at this "event".

2. Babbling Bob Dornan?
I thought he was done and gone.

What does it take to put these people down once and for all?

7. Please, someone, I beg you, get photos...
Try to get as much of the crowd in as possible.

Mention "Wolves," that should exxcite them and offer a great photo-op!

They already know we are laughing at them; let's not stop now!

:evilgrin:

Please, DC evilDUers, we are counting on you!
