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
I had read that Acorn had reserved an area, and I wondered why they were going to be there. But the light bulb just went on!! DUH!
The Bas*a*d*! They have tried, and they are trying, and they will continue to try to work us over. But the fact that they feel they have to, is encouraging. They are scared, and we must continue to go after them.
Go Glenn! Go patriots!
He said we need 56 men and women to change everything. I assume he means we need that many conservative, honest people to run and take the majority in the House and break the filibuster in the Senate.
if only they didn’t ban smoking in public buildings...who you kidding...he’s dying for a smoke right about now!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I hope there are plane or helicopter shots of the event -— will be much harder for the disinformation patrol with those.
My favorite sign (from CSPAN) was of a young girl, looked to be about 12. She was carrying a sign with a pic of her dad, a service member (I’m guessing Army). Her sign said:
“This is NOT the America my dad died for.”
THAT is the sign I want a pic of. That’s the sign I want to nail on phone poles and put under people’s windshield wipers.
Oh, my, that’s funny. “Acorn Field Office” sign on a portapotty.
I love Martina. She’s my girl.
Agreed... and while C-Span pats themselves on the back, it’s still my take that they are anything but an unbiased presenter of info.
Those camera shots of the crowd at the end were designed to minimize the crowd count to average viewers. That was propagandist in nature.
Whey weren’t shots like that provided during the event, as if I didn’t know?
Tell, tell, TELL!!!!
As you can imagine- there’s a few freepers here who REALLY wanted to be there!
It’s awesome, Connie! It’s a wonder I found you amongst all these
posts!
Have you seen your mom there yet?
Super photos. Thanks.
Oh my - what crowds - thanks for the effort.
I with ya all. Patriots taking back our country.
This is just the damn beginning of the end for some corrupt, unprincipled, thieving, traitorous swine.
It started with a march. We got there close to 11 and the march started at 10. The sea of people went on and on. They went farther than we could see in front of us and the same in back of us. People were singing, and chanting “Hear us now”, “Where’s the press!” “Vote them out”, singing “God bless America”. Then we’d break out in hoots and hollars, and cheers. People were dressed in revolutionary gear. There were older people there with canes, and families with strollers. It was America at it’s finest!
Thanks for the report and link.
Stupid effing LIAR!!
I hope AF1 flies over DC so Stupid can see all the patriots....
Sounds like today went great. Wish I were there.....
Doing great! How are things going with you?
Couple of bombs in town today...in other words, business as usual.
Fox just showed a clip from MN - Bambi essentially had a campaign rally in an effort to divert some attention from DC today. Beyond that, I guess he just wanted to hear the sound of his voice. Gag.
