I wonder why there are so few people in the WWII memorial.

Because the center of it is sunk down below grade, and it isn't possible to see well from down there.

in an AP story about Pujols; they mentioned that he “thanked G-d”...I believe I heard Mr. Pujols thank Jesus Christ SEVERAL times...AP just can’t bring themselves to mention Christ...

So, does this mean they accept that Christ and God are interchangeable terms? :-)

Glenn made a few comments on his radio show about having a way to count the crowd; but also made it clear that the area above the event was ‘restricted airspace’

Midway in the event, some mechanism released a parachute high over the scene with a camera instead of a basket. Presumably it was remote-controlled. It cruised partway down the south side of the reflecting pool and then went out of sight behind the Memorial building.

This is the most ridiculous statement ever made by this ridiculous man buffoon, Al Sharpton. He is stating that white Americans are not allowed to aspire to unity and harmony of all Americans.

There. Fixed it.

Also the sound system and the video screens were not set up to accomodate people twice as far from the event stage as the proposed NYC mosque is from Ground Zero.

The Federal Government whining to the UN about a US State's law (which mirrors Federal Law)?

People can say what they want about Ron Paul, whom I do not completely agree with, but getting the US out of the UN is something which should have happened long ago.

We need to get the Socialists out of our government, too.

The thing that’s amazing about that photo is conservates have jobs and work hard, even though it was on a weekend it’s very hard for those working really hard, raising a family and so on to attend such a rally. However, for the left to gather a few hundred thousand freeloading anarchists is pretty simple. So in truth, they no the this group at the rally represents a massive amount of people who are going to throw them out on their a$$.

Wow, the crowd was THAT BIG at 6:30 in the morning??? No wonder we ended up way back near the WW II memorial. Fortunately we saw/heard the entire event clearly on the large screens placed along the Mall.

Amazing event, although it wasn't the usual "red meat" shouting and sign-carrying type rally we've been used to over the past 10 years. Took a bit of getting used to... ;-)

I missed the jumbotrons altogether. We were forward of the WWII and could only see the ones up by the stage.

Thank you for the ping. God bless and keep Governor Brewer. Hillary Clinton was cuckolded by her husband, who exposed her to VD for years on end, and did nothing about her husband's moral failure and her own in excusing it except try to pin blame on "the vast right wing." If she wouldn't take care of her own interests, why does anyone think she could safeguard the nation's? She is the perfect partner for this Executive.
