Any FReepers at the rally FReeping this thread on their cellphones? How about a crowd estimate.

I’m happy to see them too but I get the feeling they know the people are angry and upset. So much so those sweet jobs they hold are in danger of being taken away.

Jumping on the bandwagon once it rolls ?

Hey I'm glad if they're scared. They'll listen to us when they're fearful of losing their jobs!

I had the same problem, small screen too. Try this:

that’s great news - would you mind pinging me with it later? :) Thanks!

[Signalman]

Gee I wish Ronald Reagan was speaking there now.

[Busta Rhymes]

That’s what I’m hoping.

[Hoodlum91]

I was just down there. Probably between 1-2k. The West Lawn is not quite filled.

They are very loud though and having a great time.

[ejdrapes]

Thanks. But stupid work doesn't allow streaming media. Grr...

[AnnGora]

“Gee I wish Ronald Reagan was speaking there now.”

I would stand there all day for that!

The Dems raced to watch the ‘WON’ interrupt Gibbels at today’s briefing to announce how ‘good’ his & pewlosi’s bill will be for America and urged the watchers to call DC in support of it.

Pass the barf bucket please!

[sloop]

clint is there - i asked him for a guess at crowd size on the rush thread - not sure if he got it

[TomGuy]

Too many speeches from Repubs. Voight, Bachman, Cliff, and Levin were enough. We don’t need reps from every state giving a stump speech.

And miss their 30 seconds in front of a camera?

That's heresy!

[Never on my watch]

Levin was great (as usual).

But having Boehner follow him up was like having a Joe Lieberman speech after a Sarah Palin speech.

[New Yawk Minute]

I see that as a good thing. If they are worried about their jobs..they should be. They arent deaf and blind. They saw us wondering where they were. It doesnt matter why they are there today. The fact is..they are there..they are finally showing us some support.

The people in a few states, spoke with their votes, on tuesday. These people saw that...and they should ALL be worried dems AND republicans!

It doesnt matter that these people got a late start...they are here now..they ARE on our side. It is more important that THEY are there..than any other person. We can shout, make phonecalls, hold signs, send emails..and it all gets ignored. These people have something we all dont. An ACTUAL VOTE!!

[ohioWfan]

Thanks!

Have there been any crowd photos posted? Thousands?

[Piranha]

I think this is about the pols. They are the ones who have to vote on this legislation. We have shown how important it is to get their support, and they are willing to go on record at this rally as opponents of the bill, and are using strong language to do so.

I am delighted that they all are there. If they were not, it would be a rally with a few thousand people and one representative from Minnesota shouting her opposition to the President. The sheer number of Republican congressmen willing to appear at the rally is dramatic in itself.

[Osage Orange]

Since never.........
