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.

I got to shake his hand in Hartford yesterday. He sang 2010, The Tea Party Anthem and God Bless America.

I guess that puts the tens of thousands bullshit to rest LOL

Also they were told that police were turning away Tea Party people loaded buses from going into the city because there were already too many people.
The entire city of Washington wasn’t LARGE enough to host the number of people that wanted to attend..? Holy crow! A story in itself...

Both Albany and Scranton are equal distances from me. Almost went to PA only because a neighbor of mine is from there and tells me all the time that, “When God opens his eyes he sees Pennsylvania.” So I thought I’d see for myself! Another time I guess. . .

Although I did hear in the hotel lobby that ACORN was selling the little yellow Gadsden “Don’t Tread On Me” flags on the street corners.

That sounds like Rahmbo thinking it would be oh so snarky/cute!

Hey FOX, if there are only tens of thousands, why are they turning busloads of people away?

Freeper posted Rick Moran’s site. Says (about press reports)

By any stretch of the imagination, such a crowd should have been identified in “the hundreds of thousands.”

He also says: The DC Park Police stopped trying to estimate crowds years ago.

I keep wondering why journalists & producers just don’t make a couple phone calls. It can’t be that difficult for trained people in Washington to estimate a crowd.

I bet OBAMA knows how many people are there!!!!
