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.

C-SPAN will be covering Glenn Beck’s “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.

Says the Reflecting Pool holds 200,000, the adjacent field holds 250,000. Says those areas are packed, with people packed behind the stage and starting to fill in toward the Washington Monument.

Thanks, Kristinn. So we are talking over 450,000 and counting.

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.

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”.
