Outstanding. Then he would have seen for himself and that is exactly what was needed.
The American people are awake to his marxistic ideas and efforts and will not stand for it anymore.
OBAMA IS A MARXIST IDEOLOGUE
Excellent, Jeff! Thank you.
The time lapse vid stopped at 11:30. We arrived at 12:30 and there was still a huge stream of ppl on both sides of Pennsylvania heading toward the Capitol.
About 3:00, they announced that many roads were jammed with ppl still trying to get there.
We left about 4:00 (had a long,long drive home) and there was still a large stream of ppl coming out of Metro and walking down both sides of Pennsylvania.
I wish the time-lapsed vid had covered time well beyond 11:30. The crowd was there in shifts, so was much larger than a count taken at any one time.
On the FreedomWorks site, the march was supposed to assemble at 8:00 at Freedom Plaza, then BEGIN down Pennsylvania Ave at 11:30.
When we got off at Federal Triangle at 12:30 (yes, big delays on Metro), volunteers were there telling people to go ahead down to the Capitol. One told me the number of people who arrived at Freedom Plaza at 8:00 was so great that they could not be contained there. So organizers decided to forego events there and just start the march almost immediately (as opposed to waiting for its 11:30 planned start time).
This means that the timelapse vid, ending at 11:30, captured mainly the initial surge of people who got to the rally as soon as it opened. But many, many people were still getting downtown from 11:30 on.
It was an awesome, awesome day.
BTW, will find link, but WashPo reported that Obama took Marine One over the march on his way to MN. Today Gibbels says “what march?” and Axelrod says “never mind.”

We arrived on the amtrak at 9:11 am. Buy the time the sold out train (the train guy asked if there was anything going on in DC today because his train has NEVER been sold out)arrived we met up with some of the buses unloading. We had our own little "pre march" before the big event on our way down to the crowd.
We arrived at 13th street at 9:50. We found a spot on Penn. Ave for the march and exactly 10 am, the march towards the Capital started (I looked at my watch because I was supposed to be meeting friends, whom I could not find).
So apparently, the reports of having been asked to start the march early due to overwhelming response is true!
