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.
Free Republic 9/11 Candlelight Vigil from Washington DC
The crowd size at link http://interactive.foxnews.com/livestream/live.html?chanId=5 appears rather small. :-(
Where are you going to hear the speakers??
Louisiana pastor gave me chills too. Simply awesome.
The “good” Balwin brother up now!
Noticing some of the liberal nut jobs are posting on Twitter...
Really?! Wow! Making up for his brothers’ Liberalism.
Yeah, I don't get it -- whats up?
stephen Baldwin is speaking now (per Tweet)
Sad that I couldn't be there (we're about an hour and a half drive from DC) but hubby and I along with our youngest son are sick with the sinus/cold crud that's been going around. Loving the pictures I've been seeing so far. GIVE THEM HELL FOR US!
These # counts are all over the place.
If I were Cavuto I’d be pissed as well. Imagine getting kicked to the curb because of some murdering, drunken slob?
Best wishes to you for a speedy recovery.

Thousands march to US Capitol to protest spending
By NAFEESA SYEED, Associated Press Writer Nafeesa Syeed, Associated Press Writer – 9 mins ago
WASHINGTON – Thousands of people marched to the U.S. Capitol on Saturday, carrying signs with slogans such as “Obamacare makes me sick” as they protested the president’s health care plan and what they say is out-of-control spending.
The line of protesters spread across Pennsylvania Avenue for blocks, all the way to the capitol, according to the D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency. People were chanting “enough, enough” and “We the People.” Others yelled “You lie, you lie!” and “Pelosi has to go,” referring to California congresswoman Nancy Pelosi.
Demonstrators waved U.S. flags and held signs reading “Go Green Recycle Congress” and “I’m Not Your ATM.” Men wore colonial costumes as they listened to speakers who warned of “judgment day” — Election Day 2010.

A small turn out only emboldens Obama and his brownshirts.
Thank you for Fox link
it doesn’t seem to be live
am i missing something
Where are you getting the live events, preacher speaking, etc.?
A piece of my heart is on the mall in Washington right now, but the rest of me is sitting here in Texas watching the blessed rain.
God speed to all of you who are there!
Me too.
We were going to book a campsite near DC and go.
Dad dumped his motorcycle last week and had surgery on Friday.
God knew we wouldn’t make it.
Do NOT let your heart worry ... the media will NOT be able to ignore this, for if they do, they will at their own peril.
