On March 17th, the socialistic, anti-war crowd (Cindy Sheehag, Hanoi Jane - now known as Jihad Jane - and their sorry ilk) will once again protest the war and our military. For drama’s sake, they plan to congregate at the Vietnam Wall and march on the Pentagon. There have been gleeful threats of splashing red paint on the Vietnam Wall and other War Memorials. We cannot allow such a thing to happen. Vietnam vets are beyond outraged and are planning a counter-protest to protect the hallowed ground from such traitors. The event is called The Gathering Of Eagles. Read that article for more info and check out the Eagle’s Nest forum.

Typically, liberal moonbats have a much better success rate at their marches and protests because, after all, they are unemployed and have nothing better to do with their miserable lives. Thus, true patriots have to suffer their outrages such as last weekend in D.C. when anarchists spray painted the U.S. Capitol steps and protesters spit upon and threatened our Iraqi vets, not to mention liberals’ penchant for random acts of desecration of our flag.

I, for one, am sick and tired of fuming at a distance about these traitors. Kit and I have decided to go and put our bodies where our hearts are - and join veteran-Americans on guard around the sacred memorials of our nation and around our beloved veterans. We’re done watching from far away while anti-Americans make a mockery of everything we hold sacred.

I would like to invite any Texans who are interested in going to D.C. to please contact me at redheadinfidel at gmail dot com. I will arrange the logistics of a carpool, vehicle caravan, or - best yet - a bus, if we have enough interest. We already have a bead on some inexpensive hotel rooms (a block has been reserved for Eagles) and logistics are my strong suit. I can keep the costs as low as possible, if you can get the time to get away. If you are located anywhere between Texas and D.C., still contact me - we can pick you up along the way!

Kit will be doing a live version of her radio show, The Front Line. I will be liveblogging it for our ER readers who would love to be there, but can’t make the trip. Both of us will be doing our very best to stay out of trouble. Kit is under strict ROEs from The Marine, and has promised to raise my bail money if I go rogue without warning - which is quite possible with this Redhead, as you well know. We still plan to visit our friends at Walter Reed on Friday night - and are planning something fun for those wounded vets (at their request). We’ll give you more details on that adventure as we nail down the particulars. So… Veterans from all over the nation will be there, plus their family and friends and supporters. Will you consider joining us? This is the chance of a lifetime, people!

UPDATE:

Now gathered in one spot…all information on the Gathering of Eagles in Washington D.C. on March 17th. You can post or browse information by state. It will be updated regularly by the planners and organizers of the event.

The Gathering has exploded in size and strength and I think the veterans were taken by surprise with how big this whole thing has gotten. I’m proud to say that we’ve had a little something to do with that.

So check out the site. It’s going to be our second home for the next month or so.
