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.

Why do they always push the has been at us, instead of the could be?

[jennyjenny]

No, thank YOU for all you do for all of us!

[Bronzy]

For each person there you can add 100 followers. Isn't that how one person's letter to congress is considered?

[GnuHere]

Did she need a Breathalyzer and a tonsilectomy, too?

2. I haven’t seen any. You know, I really don’t like to stereotype but -

those I’ve seen are white and don’t look like they have much money or smarts. Yes, I think people do have a look of stupid about them. (I say this at the risk of being called an elitist).

Awesome! Thanks for posting .. what
a glorious day for America. We fight on!

[who knows what evil?]

I was wondering WHY they weren’t doing an aerial shot like they have in the past for the million men march, the inauguration for the GREAT LEARDER and all those others....ANYTHING to underestimate the numbers...GOD I LOATHE THEM!

Let them lie...they don't have any viewers anymore.

FR mentioned: CNN Politics.com:Health care reform critics converge on Capitol9/11/09

[jennyjenny]

CNN had a news crew there. I saw it. The size of the crowd must have spooked them. I did hear some in the crowd gathered around their van and let them have an ear full, lol

[Salvation]

Wow! What a story. Lump in my throat — this is happening in our midst.

Obama looks lie he is sucking on a turd

[Allegra]

Well, I'm off to bed with the knowledge that our country is still strong and we have great hope for the future.

It was a pleasure hanging out and watching this with all of you.

[penelopesire]

hehehe. My hubby is a tad annoyed with me for watching the coverage all day in my pajamas...lol. I have managed to take care of my mom(she is undergoing chemo)all day but haven’t cooked any of his meals so far or cleaned up the kitchen. He is pouting a bit, but understands....lol.

Looked at the FOX stream....very significant statement from those patriots that attended today: NO LITTER!!!

I was very disappointed in Beck also. I thought he was going to show the party. In fact, Fox has been a big disappointment. So glad that I decided to try C-Span

Ditto that! CSPAN had excellent coverage. Beck should have been there on the street with the folks. Since he chose to be on the air, the least he could have done is cover the event.
