I just checked the devils network(MSNBC) and they just did a fair report. Even mentioning that it wasn’t just about the Democrats, but Tax and Spend Republicans.

PMSNBC

Screen cap: ‘Massive Capital Protest’ (think I got that right.)

Reporter dude: “Crowd composed but spirited ... Most part peaceful.”

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

You are such a jokester. LOL The best coverage we could get would be from the rally goers themselves, but Glenn Beck will cover it on FOX.

I'd like to know if it will be on radio as well.

For violating the constitution starting with signing a stimulus bill that was illegal(not impeachable actually)but let’s go to firing a CEO of a private corp, clearly a violation of the constitution, taking over private companies a violation of the constitution. Trying to pass a Health Care bill without the power to put such a bill into place. While we are at it we can recall the senate and house members who have voted for such measures, they have broken the law also. Funding ACORN alone would be enough to impeach the ba**** and get rid of the legislature.

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.

Along with pimpin' and ho'in.

Just read on Fox News that Dems are attempting to inflate the numbers of Tea Party folks in order to take the steam out of the March. If you fall under their projections if 1 to 2 million they will call the March a failure that the movement is losing steam. Someone from Tax payers Union chided this saying that the dems were using an old political trick.

GO GET ‘EM PATRIOTS!!!

There are quite a few who are struggling. These are scary times. We need to support one another instead of deriding someones lack of funds.

Anyone else besides me have trouble at the Rep. Joe Wilson contribution site ( https://www.completecampaigns.com/public.asp?name=Wilson&page=2 )?

It’s quite aggravating as it will not take my CVV number (first it demands you enter 3 different phone numbers)

NObama DID LIE and CONTINUES TO LIE!

No PORTA POTTIES? Who dropped the ball on that one? The city?

Piss on em. You know the city workers are unionized and were instructed not to put them out, even though they were paid for.

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.

I was there too, and have the same photo. It was more than wonderful. I only wish that I could be with all of you today, but I'm Mr. Mom today, and I was afraid to take my children because of the threats from the communists.

[pollywog]

MSNBC isn’t mentioning HEALTH CARE revolt as much as tax revolt...

This is like the war of 1812~~~~~~~~

[LakeLady]

Will anyone be marching where nobama is today? Sorry if this has been asked and answered a hundred times, but the thread is too long to find it.

[squarebarb]

It’s the weekend. FOX seems to have hired a lot of young just-out-of-college leftist interns for the weekends.

Listening to FOX radio news on the weekends is like listening to a Marxist lecture at UCLA. They are beyond bad.I mean Radi Rhodes bad.

Crowd in 10am photo appears much larger than now. Any reason for smaller size?

Still is absolutely freakin' awesome!

Thousands pack downtown DC to protest spending

By NAFEESA SYEED (AP) – 37 minutes ago

WASHINGTON — Thousands of people protesting what they call out-of-control government spending are marching to the U.S. Capitol in downtown Washington.

The line of protesters stretches several blocks, as people chant "enough, enough" and "We the People."

Others are waving U.S. flags and holding signs reading "Go Green Recycle Congress," "I'm Not Your ATM" and "Obamacare makes me sick."

Some men are dressed in colonial costumes with tri-colored hats.

Protesters plan to march later to the U.S. Capitol.

FreedomWorks Foundation, a conservative organization led by former House Majority Leader Dick Armey, organized several groups from across the country for what they're calling a "March on Washington."
