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.

Oh my! 2 Million!
And Zero is speaking to a tiny crowd in Minneapolis which CNN was showing.....
grrrrr....
Cspan’s coverage is great......
I will not cut over to CNN to see if they have covered this MASSIVE AWESOME 2 MILLION PLUS MARCH ON WASHINGTON!
Nor will I look over at KOS or DU for their reaction to this awesome turnout of normal every day Americans who loathe what THEIR heroes are doing to this country.
And not a PAID astroturfer among them!
What do you say now, Peelosi and Reid and Waxman ?
*Waving*
Look at this awesome American warrior!!
Had to weigh in MR. Lopez did a good job. Thanks for speaking Sir.
Salute!
Darn right! I love 'em all.
What a woman! (Kelly Hoag) She’s the quintessential Princess Warrior.

Let the buses in.
