A pure, grass-roots effort, the Gathering of Eagles' volunteers matched the massive Soros-funded anti-war machine sign for sign, chant for chant, and marcher for marcher. The contrast was most stark right before the entrance to the Memorial Bridge, where Eagles gathered with a field of American flags--while anti-Bush, 9/11 conspiracy nuts wrapped themselves in a figurative blanket of yellow "Out of Iraq" placards. Several of the vets shouted, "Yellow! How appropriate!" in between spirited chants of "U.S.A! U.S.A!" While the classless Cindy Sheehan ranted profanely, the Eagles raised their voices in polite, but roaring disapproval and raised their American flags in answer to the ANSWER socialists' Che banners and peace pennants.

As mentioned above, Michelle will have a video report on GOE on Monday's Hot Air. She will also be adding more pictures tonight.
That was tremendous.........Thanks for the link
That's all I get, too, SandRat--in my case, I think it'is a Mac thing.
EAGLES SOARED!!! You all were awesome! Thank You.
I'm on a cable modem running MS-XP.
Your wish is my command...

Wasn't there, but oh how I wanted to be.
Thanks those are superb photos.
Kinda snippy, don't you think--LOL! Guess I should have just gotten on that plane and been in DC!
Bump
> Wasn't there, but oh how I wanted to be.
Missed you. There were so may people there you couldn't find anyone.
I have some pictures, too. But my internet is pretty dicey. I'll try to post some when I get back.
The news is reporting that we just had a couple of thousand, about the same as the Pinkos.
No way, maybe at the main rally, but a lot of people, especially Rolling Thunder, were spread out. One source at the Park Service one of the FReepers knew says we could have had 20,000.
That may be high, but we certainly had the Pinkos beat 3 to one.
No, you made a good decision. No parking, hard to get around, COLD.
I never made it to the main rally point because I couldn't walk that far.
The DC Police had shut down parking so far that people like us could not walk that far.
I did meet up with Kristinn and O'Malley by accident. Said, hello, goodbye.
I was there to support. Didn't do much of it. But I tried.
eee called in from DC to do the show. Funny as all get out.
I've heard up to 3500. That sounds about right. Was watching cspam and they refuse to even mention the GOE, like it didn't exist. Several folks called and asked why they weren't talking about it and the host says, "But we have dedicated hours of scheduled time to the Answer demonstration".
Either being that stupid or genuinely not knowing the difference.
Perhaps CC will post todays show clip on their website. I called in and played Whack a mole with Liberal Don.
I have been home for days.
Not able to go.
Heart broken.
