STEVIE is our CHURCH man

He's starting to collect names & numbers of friendly churches
If you can help supply him with any information please do.

Perhaps our people in the surrounding areas can call them
tomorrow and ask for their help - instead of service- give
service to country or something like that. Making it up as we
go along Cool

Brilliant idea Stevie Wink

Anyone in the NY, NJ area that can start calling talk shows in morning
to talk, talk and talk about this information & event?
The more getting on the talk radio shows the better it will be.
HECK, CALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND GET THE WORD OUT.
LET THE WHOLE COUNTRY KNOW and then let's see the media
try their little "blackout" garbage! Razz

OFF TOPIC,

I've voted in every election beginning with 1972, without fail.

This is the first time I've felt like it made any difference.

Thanks, Chief, thanks members, thanks founders.

Blindly PM'ing members from the member list isn't a very good idea.

Just my opinion,

Alright, being a "beltway bandit" for nigh on 15 years, there are some things you NEED to know about DC.

The FIRST is that we have the FINEST metrorail service on the planet.

The SECOND is that you do NOT want to try to park your car in this town. Just forget it. Park it on the outskirts at a metro station and metrorail in.

This is the metrorail map: http://www.wmata.com/metrorail/systemmap.cfm

If you come in from the south (or National Airport) and park, just follow the Blue line, transfer at Pentagon to the Yellow line (same platform, just the next train) and get off at Gallery Place or Navy Archives. Actually, come to think of it, Navy Archives might be a good "Rally Point", so we aren't so aimless.

Any concurrence on Navy Archives as a Rally Point? It's a bit of a walk to the Capitol, but not too bad, especially if the weather is nice.

As strange as it may sound -- the Chief has got to hit the rack. Can't keep my eyeballs going much longer.

You all are doing great -- someone do me a favor (a nightowl), tally the score of how many we think we'll have and by morning if we reach the magic number of 2,500 going then I'll call in the big dogs and get this really moving along.

If not -- if we can't make that number then we need to regroup and think about another approach.

nightie night Cool

The discharge thing is posted on the Hannity message forums. They are linked to my blog and I'm getting a little traffic from there. They seem enthusiastic too.

At first, I thought, I can do this, slow weekend, good excuse not to clean my basement AGAIN! But remembered that I have a committment at church which I can't get out of. I wish I could go, will keep all in my prayers for safety and success! I do have a sister and father in Richmond, maybe they will go. Dad is a Vet, loves Bush, hates Kerry and sits in an assisted living home with nothing but Democrats. He'd love to have some other Republicans to talk to (hold onto your ears.)

PS - I did send email about the Paypal but have had no response. Will send some cash when I get a response.

If we are looking at more than 1,000 people, we need to coordinate with DC Metro Police and get a parade permit.

Anyone contacted Protest Warrior yet?
