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!"

I watched what I could during dialysis. None of the news channels had much really, but they did say that the crowd was far less than expected and that the Eagles had as many people there as the anti-eagles. Good work everyone! I was with you in spirit and am very proud of all of you.
Looks good - Thanks
