On September 12, 2009 American conservative of all persuasions showed that they had awaken . Millions of Americans all over the country protested the out of control spending, economic-ruining, socialistic and unconstitutional tendancies of the current politicians in Washington DC, and particularly the Obama administration. Estimates ranged from 2 million by the Daily Mail in the UK, to near one million by Homeland Security, to several hundred thousand by NBC. Watching it on TV, I believe there were a million or more in Washington DC. See the pictures below and decide for yourself:
And the Official Obama administration response? You guessed it... American citizens are intent on restoring the Constitution. . Conservatives consistantly poll as a large majority of the polical makeup of America...conservative Republicans, conservative independents, and conservative democrats too. When Jimmy Carter ran down America during his presidency between 1976 and 1980, Americans reacted against him and he was defeated in a landslide. The Obama administration policies are worse for America than Jimmy Carter's were, moving more rapidly and with far more abandon than even Carter tried, or Bill Clinton for that matter. The results are going to be the same. Americans want to restore the Constitutional Republic, based on the US Constitution and its foundational moral and republican principles. They are not asking for this...they are demanding it. And they will have satisfaction. Starting in 2010 with the largest overturn in the history of the House and Senate in a single election, and proceeding through 2012, the American people showed on 9/12/2009 that they are willing and more than capable of taking these measures into their onw hands. Current liberal, socialistic, marxistic, and RINO politicians ignore this at their own mortal political peril...and justifiably so. Neuter them in 2010...send them packing in 2012!

*LOVE* it - “Acorn Field Office” ..... too funny :)
BTTT
OMG! I think I’ll send that to my Dad!
But, again, 300K PLUS all the people across the country who couldn't make it to DC!!??? What a day for America! One personal note. Everyone one I talked to is in this for the long haul. The lefties have been at it for 40 years, minimum. We'll have to fight them for it, if we want our country back. Booyah!
I was never really good in math but that sure looks a lot more than “tens of thousands” of people...

T SHIRT!!!
A lot of really beautiful pictures sprinkled throughout this thread. I enjoyed it immensely, hope you will too.
The over a million estimate is NATIONAL. Supporting rallies were held across the country. Let’s not deliberately UNDERESTIMATE ourselves in an effort not to OVER estimate, shall we??
Great thread!
Great movement!
I have to tell you what happened before the rally began. As marchers were still trying to make their way onto the grounds of the Capitol, the program organizers announced to the huge crowd already assembled that we had to stay off of the mall. We didn't have permission to be there. The crowd immediately took up the chant, "IT'S OUR MALL, IT'S OUR MALL, IT'S OUR MALL...". Then, it shifted to, "IT'S OUR DOME, IT'S OUR DOME, IT'S OUR DOME..."
