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.

Free Republic 9/11 Candlelight Vigil from Washington DC

Update: 9-12 March on DC

Live traffic camera view!

New live feed

[who knows what evil?]

...and of course all the “reports” from the usual MSMsluts will say “...over 1000 people attended...”

A poster at the 'Ace of Spades' website yesterday referred to the MSM as the 'PTM...Past Tense Media'...I like it!

People starting to show on rooftops to watch.

FOX news should change their motto to “We report because they don’t want to.”

[RummyChick]

black guy on CNN -dont watch it enough to know his name - said 10s of thousands will be there...

[nesnah]

I envy you so much. I will be back in the United States in June 2011 when I retire from the Navy. I can’t wait to get involved with important causes like this. Free Republic has just simply made me a better person overall. We are so lucky to have found this website. Thank you so much for going today. God Bless you!!!!

did DC bother to put out some porta potties for this massive crowd???

[onemiddleamerican]

I just saw one on the "PatriotCam" that read, "Shove Your Socialism Up Your Obama."

My son, Ben - Marine

Give Ben our love, our support, our gratitude. After his tour, he MUST think seriously of running for public office. 'We the People' will be doing a huge house cleaning and we need 'American Patriots' to fill the gap!

[penelopesire]

This is inspiring beyond words. The numbers are growing by the minute on the cam! Tears of joy streaming down my cheeks!

GOD BLESS THE TEA PARTY PATRIOTS!!

There don’t appear to be any ACORN thugs there? All I can see are patriots!

Thanks Uncle Ike! Did they mention the number of Patriots in attendance? Last question - is Beck going to be there?

[summernite]

the gal I spoke to here in Michigan that organized 3 buses out of Madison Hgts had stated that she needed a count of attendants so that there would be enough porta potties to cover the event in DC. She was suppose to forward this info to the DC police.

Gad’s I wish we could have gone.. Enjoying the posts here and the web cams. This is fabulous!

” is Beck going to be there? “

Last I heard, Beck is going to be in the New York studio anchoring the live coverage...

Haven’t been paying close enough attention (it *is* f&f after all) to hear what numbers, if any, they’ve been reporting.... ;)

[presently no screen name]

WOW! That’s a great ‘slap in the face’ truth. Perfect!

[Lilyjuslan]

Yup, Beck will be there. I hope Fox shows reruns all weekend of it b/c I don’t TIVO and I won’t be home today to see it. I’ll be at my local Tea Party protest. So far, the news coverage on this has been disappointing. They should be broadcasting from DC today.
