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.

If Sarah was there, it would be played by the media that it was about her, not the people.

I think Parks Service no longer does crowd estimates. It became a political hot potato for them.

Yep!

“You have GOT to be kidding me. Bambi just said, “I have got to believe that THIS crowd is more “fun”” in his live speech.”

Hey, wait one second there! Didn't Robert (Marshmellow) Gibbs just recently call us all “Animal Housers”? (And they say they have more ‘fun’ now? I don't think so...)

“Gibbs: Opponents of Obama starting ‘Animal House food fight’”

“It's a sad state of affairs that many in this country politically would rather start an ‘Animal House’ food fight...”

Love DeMint’s comment: Welcome to Waterloo! Wonder how Pelosi is going to punish him.

I’m disappointed in Sarah. Very disappointed. I feel like she has let us down. :(

Rush Limbaugh isn't there either. If Sarah Palin or Rush shows up, the story is about them. This day belongs to the people. They both understand that, so should you. :)
