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.

[Liberals are the biggest hypocrites on the face of the earth. They FOCUS on race every single day of their lives. They PRETEND to care about them but I guarantee you if they don’t agree with their views they are ‘uncle Toms’, ‘traders’, ‘Clarence Thomas’, etc.!]

It is infuriating and divisive! We are all AMERICANS!

Deneen Borelli was a great (black) speaker today! She was one of the most memorable

Absolutely. And she spoke at the same time obama started speaking at his staged MN campaign rally.

She was great. I believe the CSPAN scroll under her name said she worked here:

A great conservative foundation worth a look when you get a chance(if you haven’t already heard of them).

So I don’t have to search through the thread, did anybody hear an estimate from any agency?

“Lying leftist”

Was just watching CNN rap up show about the tea parties. They had an embedded reporter who traveled with the bus caravan and he was brought in to give his take on those who made up the parties. He taped several participants at every site. I was one but he didn't have me on. What he did show was a white man with an AK47 who said revolution may be the only answer. He then characterized the tea parties as having a “dark element” to them. Death camps, forced sterilization, etc. This little twerp epitomizes the scum that control the MSM. A reporter? Hell no. A biased lying piece of excrement? Yes!!

The signs were great, really creative. This one guy had an Obama mask with a 24” limb coming off the nose, complete with a couple of small leaves growing on it (like pinnochio). There were a few dressed like the grim reaper with a sign that said Obama Care. My only dissapointment was that I never met up with the rest of the Freepers in town. It was impossible to find anyone.

I'm sure this will be an unforgettable event for you. As I recall, Pinocchio's nose didn't go back to normal until he admitted he was lying. Fat chance of that. I bet that nose gets so long it reaches all the way to Venezuela.

Fox screwed the pooch on this Tea Party. I had to turn to C-Span to enjoy it.

Beck should have went to the Tea Party.

I made it to the stop at Scranton....got to see Lloyd up close and hear him sing his song. Shook his hand, too.

I would love to see the numbers who tuned in and add them to the crowds on scene. I am betting it is HUGE!

Sorry about your mother, I spent two years caring for my mother.....she died in 2001 weeks before 9/11.

and Lloyd’s little braid going down his back was cute! LOL

One more comment about the DUmp post, they obviously didn’t watch the C-SPAN coverage today or they would know better. Another speaker—Mason Weaver. That really ticks me off. They recycle the same old garbage.

OK, just latching onto a post here! (Hi txrangerette!). Mr sneakers and I just got back from our local tea party, and, at that point, they were reporting that there were one and a quarter million in DC! Everybody at our 2000+ tea party cheered! Is it true! WHOA!!!! Updates please! I don’t have time to read the entire thread!! LOL!

I happy for your husbands health, I’m also glad that his wasn’t a preexisting condition, and that either you or him were gainfully employeed at the time with a company that offered health insurance.

I wish every american had at least that same level of care. but it doesn’t change the fact that american healthcare is not number one. Facts are facts.
