This is unprecedented in recent history of rallies on the Mall in D.C. to have a thousand people camping out at the rally site the night before. Many more will be arriving throughout the night because Beck is starting the rally at 10 a.m. EDT.

These people were the first to camp out at this area in front of the Lincoln Memorial earlier today:


Tea Party supporters claim their spots for tomorrow's "Restoring Honor" rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington August 27, 2010. The rally, organized by right-wing talk show host Glenn Beck, is expected to attract 100,000 people according to organizers. Reuters photo by Kevin Lamarque, published 1:20 p.m. EDT

Police say, as long as people remain awake, they may stay.

Police: "Hey, your friend over there, he's sleeping isn't he?"
Friend: "No...no...he's dead. He was sleeping but now he's dead."
Police: "I can hear him snoring"
Friend: "Well, he's not quite dead yet. That's a death rattle. He'll be dead shortly."
Police: "Well...Ok...but we'll be watching. Hey, you're not going to sing, are you?"

Just got off the phone with some who are staying in a hotel crawling with conservatives who complained about no FNC...

Now FNC is available in the rooms and even playing in the lobby!

I’m glad people are rallying for freedom, but I just don’t get Beck. I had him on the radio as I was driving home tonight. I could only take about five minutes of his whimpering and sobbing before I had to turn him off. It was like the week Mark Levine spent talking about his dead dog, no thanks.

Thousands of people have already poured into Washington, D.C. for a Saturday rally organized by conservative radio and television commentator Glenn Beck.

Good news!

It's already a greater rally than the "million man" march created. ; )

In real numbers instead of MSM numbers....

I’m hoping that by tomorrow, it will equal the TEA party rally. I’m so disappointed that I wasn’t able to come.

Beck is picking up a great deal of folks on Facebook ... (128,449) and it keeps ticking off continually and there are running comments as well ... Link. Also video will be steaming at the site tomorrow.

Thousands = at least dozens of people using CNN’s people counter calculator.

Rev. Al says this is just a white guy trying to co-opt the civil rights movement.

Civil rights just be for black folks you know...

Tony LaRussa and Albert Pujols are going to be there and the liberal media in St. Louis is having a fit about it.

I honestly pray that both fractions can come together for this event. Call me crazy, but I hope and pray that the Rev. Al Sharpton comes to his senses and will join Beck on stage.

In a The Grinch Stole Christmas kind of ending. I pray that Sharpton finds out the real meaning of the “Restoring Honor” gathering.

God Bless and protect all who attend.
Alveda King was on Glenn’s radio show today.
She will stand with Glenn tomorrow,
as will many of us, in spirit, who cannot attend.
We can all continue to pray for revival. It’s the only way to restore our country.

When Alveda was on the radio today, Glenn asked her about how she will prepare for tomorrow, considering the losses her family has suffered. The scripture she recited gave me chills, as it is one of my most frequently recalled scriptures.

Ephesians 6:11,17
“Put on the whole armour of God,that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”

I hope to see some of the rally on C-SPAN. I have to work tomorrow, but I will try to see as much of the rally as possible.
