Nothing menacing or intimidating about that image.

Yes, the skull and crossbones is so inviting and friendly.

Great Idea!

[dalebert]

million plus?

[swheats]

I call it restoration in transition.

[editor-surveyor]

Bump!

[HollyB]

same here JAN. Time to get busy.

Wow! What a set of pipes that gal has. Her rendition of "America the Beautiful" was memorable. The musicians and singers at this rally were truly talented and rousing....a blessing from the Lord, indeed.

The CSPAN Facebook comments section on the rally is just full of pure hate.

[AGreatPer]

Don't know about anyone else. But I'm exhausted. Was just wonderful.

[relee]

Yep, they're packed.

[Allegra]

What an amazing event! How anyone could watch without getting a little misty eyed is beyond me!

I'm not given to weeping easily, but I can't hear "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes without having to wipe away a few tears. Especially when done in a setting like that.

The combination of reverence and defiance was beautiful to behold.

[KansasGirl]

That is so great about your grandson singing at the rally. You must be a very proud grandma!

[eddie willers]

Holy Crap!

Awesome!

The funny thing is that I first saw the photo over at DU! (where I was enjoying a great case of schadenfreude :o) )

Last year the Blue Line of the Metro had a stoppage causing FR’s events on 9/11 to be delayed. We ended up starting about an hour later than planned because so many people were stuck.

They didn’t run a weekday schedule last year either and they do that all the time for special events.

[VanDeKoik]

I always wondered how many of the people that managed to roll out of bed for Sharpton’s rally even knew what 8/28 was before last month?

[Pondo]

Was that Pee Wee Herman impression Obama did on the bike funny or what?!!!

[Arizona Carolyn]

I missed the beginning of this and Palin’s speech (darn), but was MCCain there? or did she talk about him?

[BlackSeal]

That had to be one of the most amazing things I have ever seen and heard. What an event. Beyond belief. Doesn’t matter if tens of millions were there or just one. Just as long as someone, anyone saw and heard it and took it to heart. The message is out. Time for restoration!

Hi onyx,

I must stock up on Kleenex for these occasions. I missed Sarah and the begining of the rally so I’ll catch that later.
