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.

Twitter folks are saying DC police estimate 1.2Mil marchers.

The signs are awesome. One showed pictures of Pelosi, Reid, and other Dems with the caption “More Clunkers, Trade Them In”.

Ted died?
Hmm, was wondering why we were having cooler temps.
Now I know there is less HOT WIND being emitted across the country.

Every FReeper who supports this rally in spirit (who couldn’t be there) should make ONE post to this thread, and it will be a sort of informal tally of FReepers who would have gone if they could (like me).

I'd have given anything to have gone. I'm on-call and couldn't get out of it. So proud of all these Americans!

“Can you spare a square, senator?”

A beautiful sight... on my way in I passed a caravan of buses full of 9/12ers... awesome stuff beyond my wildest dreams... it will be suppressed by the MSM, but they don’t control the Internet, yet. America is hearing from us now and the communists are scared for their jobs

Sure hope someone thought about the bathroom issue.

A smart politician or company looking for good public relations should send some in, if they haven't already.
