I watched the start on Cspan - looked like a lite turnout. Glad it filled up. Every time I looked on Fox they were covering sharpton’s gig.

I watched the entire rally from the facebook site. Watched for about four hours. Cried half the time.

I stood up for all the Pledge of Allegiance, I stood for the National Anthem, I stood, cried, and clapped for the Veterans introduced by Palin.

The Vietnam Veteran who gave the closing prayer was super. He is such a GREAT AMERICAN., his wife too.

In short, I blew through a box of tissues.

After Beck left, and the singers came on, I cried some more. For me, even though I participated via the net, I felt like I was there.

God Bless all.

I just got back from the rally....amazing number of people from long before it started. DVR of C-span was waiting for me. C-span really had to search to get their shot of that platform with only a few rows of people in front of the stage. In every direction there were tens to hundreds of thousands of people, which of course they didn't want to show.

The radio news is saying "at both rallies" so I guess they'll just go with a total. 500 + 500 thousand is about 500,000. C-span coverage of the Al Sharpton rally shows about 200 people at a high school when it started. We'll see how many march to the memorials.

Restoring America's Honor is not something the left wants to happen. It's a great day to be an American.
