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.

Wow great stuff thanks!
Oh, I so wish I could’ve gone! Me and my Mother had been dying to go, but circumstances wouldn’t allow. I’m positive we would’ve had a blast.
And they’re all under 30.
Glad you were there! What a day!!!!
I am one of those who would have loved to be there, but couldn’t make it.
Now. We know the enemy, THE NEO-MARXIST DEMOCRAT LEFT, what is another enemy, just as deadly, just as destructive, which is an “enemy from within” IE...
IF WE TRUST OR ALLOW TO USURP “JOHNNY COME LATELY” HASBEENS AND LIMP WRISTED SELLOUTS LIKE JOHN MCJERKOFF, TRENT (IDIOT) LOTT, NUTE GINGRCH, HUCKABEE, AND OTHER LIKE “PLAY ALONG TO GET ALONG” NITWITS THAT DON’T UNDERSTAND THE TRUE NATURE OF THE ENEMY, WHAT HAS BEEN STARTED ***WILL***BE***DESTROYED***.
I YELL FOR A DAMN GOOD REASON.
It looks like thousands. Pat on the back for all those present, I am there in spirit.
The time for MSM news crews has passed. It is our job now to pass the message along. The “news crew” that busted ACORN is a perfect example. We have the eyes, ears and voice; do we dare use them?
Whoohoo, great job folks!
Were you even there? There were about 30 porta-potties right by where we were, the Peace monument. There were other areas with porta-potties as well, FGS!
Without a doubt.
We have to expose everything, dirty tricks, phony legislation,crazy spending,all the acorns etc. the Joker and his ilk are and will try for the next three years. And when we get back into power it will be huge job to reverse everything they have done and are doing.
Yes, I was "even there." Where do you get off?
If you look at the time of my post, you will see that it was made when we were still at Freedom Plaza, where there were no toilet facilities of any kind.
Perhaps you didn't know that. Were you even there?
And yes, later in the day we all marched to the Capitol Building, where I'd say there were more like 50-60 porta potties near the Peace Monument.
You might want to lay off the caffeine.
You were with us in spirit, 444! You would have had a blast - what a surprise it was to walk out of the metro tunnel and finds thousands upon thousands of freedom loving Americans as far as one could see, singing, shouting, holding signs. I thought I had lost my husband at one point and must have looked worried while I was looking around - someone said to me “It’s ok, you’re among friends here”. What a nice thing to say. And you know what - he was right. But, I have to tell you - if you lost someone there - it would have been near impossible to find them.
What happened with CNN? I can’t get the video off Drudge to work for me.
Can someone fill me in?
Hey everyone we just got back from our 912 Fresno/Central Valley Tea Party. There were about 300 people along Blackstone, we got lots of honks and thumbs up and a few fingers. We also got some confused looks... I guess there are lots of American Idol viewers out there without a clue of what’s going on.
Here ya go, You Tube video :)
