Thanks to our good friend Katie O’Malley for sending me the pics, story and video. These protesting pukes cut and run, because that is their nature…

Doing what the left does best…..cut and run

On Saturday, August 16, 2008, The Gathering of Eagles came to Somerville, NJ to stand for our troops. Our intrepid and hard working state coordinator, Carolyn along with David’s help, did a little recon of the anti-war “vigil” last month. The moonbats had about 15 folks planted outside the recruiting station in the middle of town (classy!!). The dynamic duo returned to their car and gathered their signs for an impromptu rally of their own…an Eagle is always prepared!

The moonbats were NOT happy. Two Eagles on a corner across the street caused them so much rabid anger, several of them literally ran across the street to verbally harass our heroes. But did they chase our Eagles away? No sir…Eagles are not intimidated….even when outnumbered.

Fast forward to August 16th . Eagles from CT, NJ, PA & NY met outside the recruiting station. Within minutes, the 20 plus Eagles had American flags flying on all four corners. Honks and thumbs up became a constant backdrop.

There were some typical Eagle moments. An older couple came by, thanked us for being there and expressed their joy at seeing Eagles on the corner for a change. At Carolyn’s invitation, they joined us and asked when the next event was! New Eagles hatching! In addition, a wonderful NJ woman, Sue, heard about the event on-line…intended to stop by for a few minutes and stayed the entire time.

A young woman came to take pictures…we are all a little cautious about folks who approach…you NEVER know what their agenda might really be. But we were thrilled when she told us the following,I was upstairs in my apartment watching tv….my husband cam in and said there were protesters outside the recruiting station. I said big deal, they are there every month….he said no honey, they are pro-troop!!!! I grabbed my camera. I HAD to see this for myself. As soon as I leave here, I am going to send these pictures to our friend who is serving in Iraq so he sees what people are doing for him.”

There is no finer honor we can have then to know that our brave heroes will know we have their backs here at home.

After much merriment, the witching hour was drawing near…the moonbats arrival approached. Up the street came one lone hippie, dragging her Soros funded premade signs. As she rounded the corner and saw the Eagles, her mouth dropped so far open she could have fit an army boot right inside. She stood, forlornly, waiting for backup. Finally, she was joined by another leftie who was equally gobsmacked. They huddled together, snapping pictures and calling for backup on their cells. After no more than 10-15 minutes, they scurried away, defeated.

At least they provided a real time example of EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE US DO IN IRAQ….those sad creatures did what the left knows best…in the face of opposition, in the face of challenge….the MOONBATS CUT AND RUN.

A couple of short videos from the GOE event in New Jersey. Way to go Eagles! The moonbats were too cowardly to show up, apparently. Who wants to look at hippy throwbacks anyway?

NJ and Gathering of Eagles

Gathering of Eagles 8/16/08

Yesterday was an amazing day for me. I had the honor and privilege of standing with the Gathering Of Eagles organization in the town of Somerville, NJ which happens to be the county seat of Somerset County and is the home of a military recruiting center right in the middle of the main part of town.

As was explained to me, there's a small group of moonbats who stand in front of the recruiting office holding their nasty anti-war signs, harrassing people, and just generally doing what moonbats do best, being rude, hateful and annoying. This group of moonbats show up the 3rd Sat of each month at 2:00 p.m. and hang around for about an hour. I laughed when I was told they are often late, but they are packed up and out of there at 3:00 on the dot. (Makes me think they must be professional/paid moonbats).

I didn't actually count the number of Eagles on the scene a full hour before the scheduled moonbat hour, but I'm guessing between 20 and 25 people were there with flags unfurled, banners held high and signs showing support for our military and our country. We aren't talking about the little flags you stick in your flower box folks, I'm talking great big American Flags, Marines Flags, a banner so huge it took two adults to hold it -- maybe 4' x 6' (?) saying in huge letters "Land of the Free Because of the Brave". It was a beautiful sight. The Eagles took up both sides of the street and all the corners at a busy intersection. There were people honking and giving the thumbs up and others on the street who came up and expressed appreciation.

When the moonbats showed up their reaction was priceless. They came walking from a side street and they were clearly shocked at what they saw. The 2 ladies that I saw looked like they hadn't updated their hairstyles since 1968 -- nobody told them that it not only isn't cool anymore, it wasn't cool back then if the hair was entirely gray.... They rounded the corner about a half a block away and when they realized what was happening they literally stopped dead in their tracks with completely stunned looks on their faces. Clutching their "War is not the Answer" signs tightly they talked to each other without coming a step closer. We watched and waited while the moonbats got to see all the people honking and giving us the thumbs up...this went on for 10 or 15 minutes and then they left. We all thought they would come back but they slinked off while an Eagle yelled, "they're leaving" and another Eagle replied loudly "That's what moonbats do, they cut and run".

It was a good day in Central NJ.
