Live traffic cam - National Mall (on map, click the Mall or other locations of interest.
Webcam view from Netherlands Carillion.
Glenn has got a vest on - I figured he would.
72,000+ now watching stream.
Does anyone know if C-Span showed the intro?
They did.
Beck has already had estimates of capacity for the Reflecting pond at several levels of full out to the Washington Monument for the laargest level of full. That number was 250,000. It is backing up and overflowing across the street. The field off to the side has Jumbotrons too. It holds 300,000 and is also full. All Metro lines reporting long delays.
Estimate over 550,000 people from what I can determine.
No-it was only on the live stream.
C-SPAN will be covering Glenn Becks Restoring Honor rally at the Lincoln Memorial this Saturday, with Sarah Palin among those expected to attend. Coverage begins 10amET.
Beck was on the Mall again today (above) taking another walk-through in preparation for Saturday.

Why is he saying “Gods” plural, that really doesn’t sit well with me.
They did not show the panorama intro but they played Glenn’s words while panning the crowd.
Yes -They did.
I just love archipelago singing! 8^)
Does anyone know why the first prayer talked about ‘gods’?
And the ustream is even better than cspan!!
77,000+ viewers on USTREAM
Thanks, Kristinn. So we are talking over 450,000 and counting.
ya I just heard..the lady on about half an hour ago called it 1500 people ...LOl
BTW on a related issue.
Author of the Healthcare bill confessed he never read the bill he authored! He said he does not know what is in it!
Fox does not have the rally but the bulls and bears show is showing the reason government officials, elected and appointed, need replacing.
“i wrote anyone off that voted for the destruction of america..do the same.”
I’d like to, but that includes my mother & three sisters.
:-(
Glenn is right. The MSM will report it as ‘hundreds’.
I think that was the microphone echo because he did not mince words about “YOUR SON, JESUS CHRIST”.
