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.

As crowds cleared the city Tuesday, their trash covered the National Mall and Washington Monument grounds after President Barack Obama’s inauguration.
They left behind plastic bottles, newspapers, food wrappers, gloves and American flags they had been waving. Trash bins overflowed with items people tossed.
Trash was also strewn throughout the Metro subways and other avenues of transportation.

On Wednesday, crews from Don's Johns began hauling 6,400 portable toilets off the National Mall. Workers also began removing miles of security barriers, picking up trash and dismantling bleachers and reviewing stands.

ROTFLOL!!
That is a great sign!
Thank you, when do they begin?
Checking in from Alabama!
Couldn’t be there in person, but there in spirit!
I see you can’t specify an actual impeachable offense.
How, exactly, are you different than the barking moonbats begging for Bush’s impeachment?
has reverend manning been on the podium yet.
FOX just broke in with a news alert. Crowd chanting, “We own the dome.”
Oh hell let the idiots have their fun. Numbers are numbers and the photos are something they will have to deal with, especially the film.
Tell your combat vet “thank you” for me. (Niece will be marrying a Marine in a week.)
Get use to it. This is what awaits us down the road in the future....ala USSR controlled media!! Next in line TOTAL BLACKOUT!
ala “The Great Firewall of China”.
Wish I was there instead of in this hospital bed!
But I'm right there in spirit, cheering mightily from the sidelines!
I'm betting 2 million total....any takers?

Me too. Going to try to go to a rally in San Jose tomorrow. (I have sick kids, so that’s why I wouldn’t.)
