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.

For screwing the American people.

Heh. Isn't every president since Reagan guilty of that?

[khnyny]

Just saw on twitter, patriots being told they don’t have a permit to go on to the mall.

so what, arrest them all?

The DC police don't want to rough up Granny - they WILL be sued and the pictures will be plastered around the world. Bet on it.:)

Heart swelling with pride for this patriotic stand! I had planned to be with my freeper brothers and sisters in DC, but unexpected circumstances prevented me. Wish I could be there! Prayers up for this historic moment, for Glenn Beck, but most importantly, for the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of patriots in DC, and the millions around the country supporting them. We did not come clawing and scratching out of the dark abyss of tyranny, to sit quietly while an usurper plunges us over the cliff of socialism.

Don’t tread on me!

As socialist as he's been I haven't seen any proof of "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors".

Remember he is using our tax-payer money paying thugs to show up. Anywhere from $9.50 - $14.00 an hour. What a putz going on air at 1:00, hopefully whomever covers his speech only gets about 10,000 viewers while Beck gets 5 million plus. I just don't understand this country anymore.

I would be one of those. I am watching FOX ALL day, participating as I can. And cheering them on. Glenn Beck is going to have a special covering it, I will wait for his report as to a tally.

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

FOX is carrying it live from 1 - 3 and Glenn Beck will be anchoring... you can watch all the action at blinkotv.com, tikilive.com, freetubetv.net just look for the FOX news link.

>>What ever the total—there are enough NOT to be ignored.<<

You mean by the MSM?

They ignore the Right to Life March every year.

[jcsjcm]

What channel are you watching?

[balls]

CNN has had the best crowd shots. Their aerial shots of the crowds are awesome. Fox street-level shots make it look like a Sunday picnic.

C-span will cover the event live beginning at 1 pm eastern

Isn’t it a junction of three streets where they are at? If they are still filing in the part where the Washington Monument is would seem empty compared to others.

[PatriotGirl827]

I am there in prayer and I know you are too.

TRIED to figure out a way to make it happen.

Didn’t work out.

My body is here, but my HEART, PRAYERS, and SPIRIT are marching with you today!!!

WAPO: Activists Rally Against Government Spending on National Mall

Conservative protesters by the thousands gathered in downtown Washington on Saturday and began marching on Capitol Hill in an effort to stop what organizers called the over-expansion of the federal government under the Obama administration.

Activists Rally Against Government Spending on National Mall At the Federal Triangle Metro stop, demonstrators emerged from packed trains and broke into a rendition of "God Bless America" as they rode escalators to the street.

"Nobody's standing up for us, so we have to stand up for ourselves," said Phil Chancey, 66, who drove to the District from Clinton, Tenn., for the rally. The sign he carred, deriding the president health-care reform plan, read, "OBAMACARE MAKES ME SICK."

Obamacare makes America sick!
