I love how some people make these type comments as they sit at home pounding their keyboard.

People are TRYING..while others sit on forums and complain.

If they think the country is GONE, then why are they even here? They should be looking for some other country to live in.

Some pix from today in DC, on Yahoo News Images:

Have you seen the overhead shots of the Promise Keepers rally where they had 900,000?

There were MORE at the 9-12 rally.

It's not "nonsense." It was the most amazing experience my husband and I have ever had. It was thrilling to be part of such a massive group of humanity.

It took a week before the buzz wore off.

Just amazing!

Levin, Coulter, Malkin,,I could vote for and contribute to and be so excited. Geniune people.

Our congress looks like a bunch of cynical self centered people who just want reelection and want to be on the A list for parties and live on our dime.

I really detest them except for a few who seem like real public servants. And they need longtimers there with institutional memory and wisdom.

Thank you for being there for us on 9/12.

Today wasnt so bad, considering its a weekday, and people had such short notice.

I think we all appreciate those who were able to attend today, for us, too.

[ohioWfan]

I love it too, devistate.

It is SO exciting that REAL Americans are waking up, marching, protetsting, gathering in DC in record numbers, writing letters, making ceaseless calls.

This is history in the making.

I've said it before, but last November I thought we had lost our precious country for good. I didn't think there was any way out.

Now I KNOW there is a way out...........the POWER of the American PEOPLE!

Just heard on WMAL some woman was saying that the Tea Party people were not allowed to go into the Reps.’ building - didn’t say which one. They had Capital Police cordoning off the corridors! Anyone else hear this?

I'm not interested in being friends with the Left. But I'm not going to bitch about an anti-ObamaCare rally because shock! horror! Republican members of congress showed up, oh, and they weren't frothing at the mouth with rage.

[ohioWfan]

I know we would have been there had it not been for work requirements for both my husband and me.

We did have a few busses go from my home city, so I can't wait for a full report.

I VERY much appreciate those who could make it today. Each one of them speaks for thousands of us here at home who couldn't get there.

Found the first video of Mark Levin at youtube...

Excellent. I really wish I could have gone. I did go for 9/12 and while this crowd is smaller, it is still quite large. Pretty doggone good for such short notice.

[ohioWfan]

Whoa. Isn’t that................illegal?

[Gene Eric]

>> It’s all a joke.
>> Nope...just a little pep rally and a waste of time, it won’t accomplish anything.

We are most often bound by self imposed limitations.

A Twitter photo, taken in Nancy Pelosi's office:

Kill the bill!

[ohioWfan]

Great photos. THANKS!

Well I’ve learned never sometimes happens.

I've learned that, similar to the old bumper sticker back in the 80s:

Obama Happens

[New Yawk Minute]

I am listening to WMAL now after reading your post. Right now, he is talking about the tea party. He said he will be talking to Michele, later. So far, he is not saying anything about them not being allowed in the buildings. He is playing a few clips.

Just Tea Party people? Excuse me if I sound ignorant, but how is one recognized as a "Tea Party" person? Do they wear hats/buttons? {confused}

[ohioWfan]

Hmmmm..........are those pages of that monstrosity scattered all over the floor?

If so.......GOOD!
