Marching proudly through the streets of Washington DC is this beautiful delegation from our neighbor to the north - Canada!

And lest there be any doubt as to where these two presidential candidates stand - here are Hillary and Obama

Pay close attention to the age of the marchers. This is becoming a huge Youth Event. Generation X is very pissed at the Genocide. There are approximately 250,000 marchers.

I saw groups from France, Italy, and Brazil there as well when I went to the March. It’s always great to have international pro-lifers showing solidarity with us!

Note the difference in dress and civility contrasted with the freak show left demonstrations.

Probably suffered from media blackout by association since Dr. Paul spoke there. A co-worker of my wife’s who has been supporting the Huckster was very impressed by Dr. Paul’s address. There is fragmentary evidence of this address on youtube if you search for it.

The drive-bys are going out of their way to avoid giving any figure on attendance, opting instead for the ambiguous “thousands”. Predictable.

Paul, a libertarian with an anti-war bent, addressed the rally and spoke of his credentials as an obstetrician who has delivered 4,000 babies. "The debate over when life begins should not be a debate. Let me assure you: All life begins at conception," he said.

Wonder how the leftist wingnuts that are supporting RP because of his pro-terrorist, anti-American stance on Iraq feel about that?

My daughter was there with the pro-life, anti-infanticide folks. It is truly a younger movement, AND many more women then men in the pro-life crowds.

I could not be more proud, and though I truly believe I have shaped her to be the person she is, ultimately she had to step up to the plate and do this herself, to stand and be counted in spite of the mainstream pressures.

Thousands. If they were marching from the left that would qualify for a million.

lol...time flies my friend. The definition of GenX varies but it’s folks born in the late 60s to late 70s. I’m right in there and I just turned 40.

Now, turn that music down! ;)

Did you mean The Washington Times? I notice you linked an article at the The Washington Times, not the Washington Post.
