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
NO they said there hasn’t been as many tricorner hats in the mall since the war of 1812.
I’m in! I wish I could be there. Can’t wait until Glenn’s coverage starts. Three cheers for all in attendance today!
JR will get the real numbers
Sure hope someone thought about the bathroom issue.
The marchers are into the mall now.
I love your comment and your tagline!
I wish I could go, but I think I have do Coast Guard things this afternoon.
Not trying to downplay the event are they? One thousand - thousand people protesting...
Use the ones in the Capital. Seems appropriate to FLUSH today!!!
“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.”
There needs to be a growing opinion that any of them who don’t start yelling now are enemy collaborators. There is too much information out there now to look at it any other way.
Sign: “You can’t fix stupid but you can vote it out”. LOLOL!!!!!
He’s somewhere in Minnesota today (hmmm, did he want to be away from our rally in DC?). The Minnesota thread might have something.

I have been laughing so hard at the signs!!! They are all fantastic! I am going to tape this on my VCR today. THIS IS HISTORY!!!!
Great idea, i am there in spirit and am chanting “You Lie” in my living room.
We need to get porta potties down there too. Who was responsible for that screw up I wonder? Is it true?
You asked ,Crowd in 10am photo appears much larger than now. Any reason for smaller size? “
It started there and moved on so what you are seeing now is people who have just arrived.
og to another camera to see how huge the crowds are
that’s all these media pukes are there for. they’ll desperately search for any 2 guys in a shoving match - even if it’s because one guy accidently spilled coffee on the other guy’s kid - and they’ll use it to show the unruly racist mobs. They way idiot sportscasters show the 8 second video of the one and only fight in a great, action packed 6-5 hockey game.
looking at the vid,i can see olbermann calling it a crowd of 2-3000.
www.radiotime.com has a Search Function using either names of shows/Call Letters , etc.... i tried but couldn’t come up w/anything
