I just got back from the rally, and yes, we did have a glorious day. Much better than the wet one the Murthapalooza had yesterday!

It was an excellent rally. Hard to guess-timate how many people were there, but I would say at least 300-400 (conservatively). The speakers were all wonderful and very moving, particularly John Wrobleski, who lost his son in Iraq. Gregg Garvey, another Gold Star Father also spoke, along with Earl Johnson and Todd Beamer's father David.

When we arrived, there was a small cluster of moonbats across the street with their "We've got your back, Jack" and "Bush Lied" sign. One idiot was dressed up as the grim reaper. They got into a shouting match with some of our vets in front of the War Memorial, and one moonbat even crossed over and got into an altercation with some of our folks when we suggested he stay on his side of the street.

Other than that, very peaceful. I'll try to have pictures up tonight or tomorrow.
