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.

This is a great report — thank you so much for putting it together! (Dang, I wish I’d gone.)

“Police officials declined to release a crowd estimate, but the number of protesters along the route appeared to number well into the tens of thousands. “

WHY?

They are turning people away and unwilling to release a crowd estimate, meanwhile the media lies through their teeth about crowd size. What the heck is going on here?

:) I tend to type too fast...and I don’t proofread every time. Oh well, I guess as long as it’s not a term paper, I’m okay.

Baby napping. Got about 30 minutes, if that. Been watching this all day. She learned a new word today. FREEDOM! And she was yelling it with me waving her fist in the air. It was the most awesome thing, her baby voice...FEEDUMMMMMM!!!!

Looks like it might be time for some new toys.;)

BTW HI YA.

[fujimoh]

No doubt the WH has instructed them to trivialize this ... that’s what’s up.

[Allegra]

Thank you for attending and for representing those of us who couldn't be there.

And for helping to make history. :)

Business as usual....

Do you REALLY have to ask?

I am so proud of these American patriots. I’m crying.

[AZamericonnie]

Colonel this is indeed a great day for America!

Looking at the sea of patriots just brings tears to my eyes!

Hi TasRed!

[Colonel_Flagg]

Just got home from work. I’ve been trying to follow this on my phone but FR loads so... slow........

Now I’m home. Boy, the crowds are gigantic. Now it’s being said ABC had calculated 1.5 mil. Earlier, Michelle Malkin had mentioned 2.0 mil. and the DC police 1.0 mil. But crowds keep coming.

In any event, the DIMs have to be soiling their panties. Regardless of numbers, these are people who are fed up with government, fed up with stimulus crapola, fed up with health bills that take away their medical safety, fed up with lies about their character, and fed up with being unemployed, unappreciated and unwanted. These people vote and 2010 is midterm elections. This has got to have them wrapped way... to tight.

Tomorrow’s my birthday. What a present. THANKS, AMERICA!
