Moreover, they're royally frucked.
I had to share this with you guys. Mark down this date: September 25, 2005. We may have witnessed the death of the Freeper movement today.
This is just too damned hilarious. Here's the earlier story:
Military families and other defenders of the war in Iraq were claiming their turn to demonstrate, responding to a huge war protest with a rally of their own on the National Mall.
Organizers hoped to draw several thousand people to their noontime event near the National Air and Space Museum. They acknowledged the rally would be much smaller than Saturday's antiwar protest in Washington but said their message would not be overshadowed.
"People have been fired up over the past month, especially military family members, and they want to be heard," said Kristinn Taylor, a leader of FreeRepublic.com, one of the sponsors of Sunday's event.
BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE FREE REPUBLIC! After the hop...
Here's how it turned out.
Military families and others defending the war in Iraq took their turn Sunday to demonstrate on the National Mall, if in much smaller numbers, and counter the massive protest against the war a day earlier.
About 100 people had gathered before a stage set up on the eastern portion of the mall as the noon rally began. A large photo of an American flag served as a backdrop for the stage, and country music blared from speakers while other banners and signs proclaiming support for U.S. troops waved in the breeze.
To the west, near the Washington Monument, workers were taking down the stage used for Saturday's marathon anti-war protest that attracted 100,000 people according to police estimates.
Ahem...we'll be right back after this.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OH MY GOD!!! THAT'S THE MOST PATHETIC THING WE'VE EVER SEEN! HAHAHAHA!!!
(Brushing off myself) Well. Welcome to Washington, Freeps. Enjoy your funeral.
