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
Wait until the next one.
I have a feeling this may snowball into something bigger. If you can imagine that.
I hate that I have missed so much, having been at work till now...but thanks for the ping. I REALLY hate that I missed Glenn’s segment! I know, after what he’s done this week, that he was on a roll. Did he tell the “secret” he’s been harboring all week? I wanna know! :D
you betcha. Pope John Paull II and Ronald Reagan walking side by side tearing down communism. Two greats that were one of a kind. And now what, we have communism right here being shoved down our throats by some Chicago punk thug in the white house. I can envision the two of them up in heaven looking down on us and saying, this will not stand!
This jackass is openly talking of “obama Fans” Called Michelle a guy. compared her to sasha
I dont get it. He is just yapping gibberish
And I have to add how courteous and polite everyone was with each other, lots of ‘excuse me’s, and thank you’s while squeezing though the crowd - no trash left behind. And of course - EVERYONE was fired up!
Tell us your experiences - we just can’t get enough of this awe-inspiring day!!!
And the best thing is - these millions and more miillons like them - VOTE! (legally and without being paid to do so!)
They are all REAL Americans and REAL mad ones! I wish I
could have been there!
Kate Smith’s version was my favoite but it has been replaced for today’s generation by Martina McBride. She sings it with the same feeling.

We were allowed on the grass in the mall but there was some sort of other event going on there. I’m not certain what it was but was told by someone else it had something to do with a black womens organization. They had all kinds of tents, food, music etc. Not many attendees. There was no way you could keep the protesters off the mall area. There were too many of them and it spilled way over into the mall area. I didn’t personally see any of the protesters being told to stay off the grass in the mall. Doesn’t mean it didn’t happen, though.
Yeah, and it only lasted for like half a second.
State-run media will minimize this, it is to be expected.
nice video....please ping me if you put other parts up...TIA
GRRRRRReat video!
CSPAN just put up Lord Zero
I think C-SPAN is replaying it tonight at 1:00AM.
“D.C. police estimates the crowd at 1.2 million. ABC News, however, reported this afternoon that the crowd was estimated at 2 million.”

It will, we will make it happen. We need to look at this as the beginning, not the end. This was phase 1. The next one will be twice as big. I couldn’t make it to this one, the next one, I will be there come hell or high water and I will bring all of my family and friends with me. That... is a promise!
Reminded of the theme song from the X Files....."Do You REALLY Want To Know??
