Please post your updates from D.C. and from news reports here as well as your photos of the day.

Our Walter Reed salute to the troops last night was very well attended. Upwards of 800 people were there over the three-plus hours of the demonstration.

Photos and video taken by This Ain'tHell taken in daylight before the bulk of the crowd showed can be viewed here.

To really get the education job done, all the people at the protests really need to now band together, form charter schools and homeschool coops and educate their own children. There are enough educators, parents, and concerned citizens that this should not only be doable, but wildly successful. Education must be the next focus of this movement. Real history, real learning, real content is the only answer.

Hey guys and gals the gal with the Party like it's 1773 should be our image for the entire demonstration!

I agree, she's our new "Belly Girl"!

We had couple of “bombs” go off right here in Clearwater FL, I knew I shouldn’t have had that last bean burrito... keep yer head down and stay safe.

Hilarious! Saved to hard drive for later use.

Having Government manage your healthcare is like the Beatles using Ringo as the lead singer?

[Darksheare]

Sorry about that.
At least you didn’t spray drink stuff onto the keyboard or monitor when you read it.
I lost count of how many keyboards I owe.
;-)

[penelopesire]

GOOD! I hope all the members of Congress took notice too.
WE SURROUND THEM!!

I unfortunately got there at around 10:45, meaning I came into the actual marching part a bit late since they started early. But I made it up to the speakers and got some decent pictures (more than shown, but I didn't want to post too many):

The next few from atop one of the statues

Who’s he gonna believe? His sycophantic advisors or his own lyin’ eyes???

I think you put the emphasis on the wrong syllable:

PLUS: President Obama tells Steve Kroft in an interview airing Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on CBS News' "60 Minutes: "I intend to be president for a while and once this bill passes, I own it. ... So I have every incentive to get this right.”

He really is planning to override the 22nd Amendment and be El Presidenté for life.

Thank you!

The commies have to take note of the increasing unrest, and they will accelerate the speed of the jam downs coming our way, knowing their days are indeed numbered.

Rev 12:12

...Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

I was looking for ‘different’ signs....not people of color.

RACIST!

[sweetiepiezer]

Still swollen but at least not throbbing like it was.
I cannot tell how many great people I met yesterday from Texas.
Was so wonderful being their amongst all these wonderful patriots.

[Prince of Space]

Ditto.

I just arrived at the airport. My last view of the lobby as I rode away on the shuttle was JimRob and a group of Freepers chatting. Thanks to our DC chapter hosts, to the organizers and to JR for a fun weekend.

Don't forget Mason Weaver!!

And then there's Deneen Borelli!!

The elite -- you know, those who see race ONLY -- seem to fancy themselves as amateur Dr. Phils and have determined that these individuals must be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. They just can't stand it when Blacks leave the liberal plantation.

P.S. to Happyhippychick and her friend, Avalux from DUMB (Democratic Underground Message Board): All that drug use seems to have killed off the majority of your brain cells. You might want to stay off the internet so the whole world won't see how incredibly limited your mental capacities are.
