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.

My brother-in-law attended that. It was called “Stand In The Gap” (based off Ezekiel 22:30) and IIRC, there were almost a million men who went to the Capitol and prayed for the nation.

He has a picture of an overhead shot with the Washington Monument in the foreground, the Capitol in the background, and the entire Mall filled with praying men.

Damn! I'm commenting on Post 444. My favorite number. 444th Bombing Wing of the Army Air Corps.

My comment: Hulu is free.

[madison10]

Geez I don’t know...I’ll look but I doubt it! Hold on let me check!

CNN is — every 10 minutes

MSNBC NOW

Yeah, I suppose if your family hasn’t had work in 6 mos. and you live halfway across the country it’s just an excuse not to be able to afford to be there. And, that’s because we really don’t care at all, right? Those of us who are suffering — you know the ones you are supposedly there to protest on behalf of... Those of us who are already being hurt by Obama’s policies? No, that’s definitely not a very nice thing to say...

[MissDairyGoodnessVT]

Hey! is there any live RADIO COVERAGE of this?

if so, what station call letters? am/fm???

[jhw61]

I know it does look fantastic. I wished so much I was able to go and I wanted to take my 10 year old son and drive down. We just didn’t have the money, period! It’s o.k. though because all these wonderful American Patriots that were able to get down there is so awe-inspiring. I’m in tears but I always seem to be in tears these days watching what the Present in our White House is doing to OUR COUNTRY!

Excellent! Looking at the traffic cam at Pennsylvania Ave and 7th now! W00H00!

[Country Eagle]

I’m with you in spirit Bag...add me to the tally.

[Muzzle_em]

un-EFFING-believable!

I’m sure ALL the major networks will show his rally!

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

We will be marching today at River Park Shopping Center in Fresno, on the sidewalk along Blackstone between Alluvial and Nees, from 3:00 to 5:00. If you need a sign and/or a t-shirt get there at 2:00 and buy a t-shirt and make a sign.

Come and join us!!

[SE Mom]

I swear I’ve got perpetual goose bumps this morning!

[sissyjane]

Oh WOW!!! Look how many ...Woo-HOO!!! Go get ‘em!!!

[Sig Sauer P220]

There don’t appear to be any ACORN thugs there? All I can see are patriots!

Acornholers only show up when they know they can outnumber people 20:1 or more. They are all about intimidation by numbers and nothing more.

[speelurker]

Don’t know. But if that is really where they are at so far 10 minutes before the march was even supposed to start, the total is going to blow that number away.
