In thhe views they just showed on the stream, you could see that people are packed in like sardines. It will be interesting to see what the true numbers are.

WPost coverage, including video of Sarah’s speech

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/28/AR2010082801106.html

“We must not fundamentally transform America, as some would want,” Palin said. “We must restore America and restore her honor.”

“Here today, at the crossroads of our history, may this day be the change point,” Palin said. “Look around you. You’re not alone. You are Americans! You have the same steel spine and the moral courage of Washington and Lincoln and Martin Luther King. It is in you. It will sustain you as it sustained them.”

Rush is doing his part with the millions that listen to him each day, he doesn’t need a big event.

DC Metro is reporting:

Disruption system-wide. Delays due to crowding at Shady Grove, Glenmont, Vienna, New Carrollton, Largo, Franconia, Branch Ave, Greenbelt & Huntington.

I wonder why?

Can anybody explain what the bit about why we should rely on an “invisible magic sky God” - was he just mocking God? I know he’s Mormon and I know he practically worships Lincoln, but that was a little over the top.

And I’ll add, Rush has never pretended to be in the game for anything other than the money. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Oh boy, they're really ripping them up over at the Sharpton rally. I almost feel bad posting this on this great thread, the speakers there are so hateful, bitter and divisive.

"Shame on them. We still have a dream. We are here to let those folks on the mall know that they don't represent the dream," said Jaime Contreras, president of SEIU-32BJ. "They sure as hell don't represent me. They represent hate mongering and angry white people. The happy white people are here today," continued Contreras. "We will not let them stand in the way of the change we voted for!"

On the racial divisions evident in the rallies today -- "We can either remain complacent under the guise of a post-racial society," said Cynthia Butler-McIntyre, national president of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority. We came today to say that is a lie and the truth is not in it."

"I'll say what Dr. King once said: 'We may have come here on different ships but right now we're in the same boat'," said radio host Warren Ballentine.

Latest update from WaPo's live coverage of Al Sharpton rally.

I don't think that's what Beck meant. That person might have been among the refounders that called Beck secretly. :

I had this idea the other night, while reading Thomas Jefferson. Let's begin the search for the 56 men and women who help us re-found America: Patriots, "refounders" willing to put their nation ahead of themselves and their party affiliation. Stop identifying yourselves as Republicans and Democrats; start identifying yourselves as Americans. Republicans should begin the cleanup of the GOP and the Democrats clean out the corruption in the Democratic Party. We all know it's there — so, admit it: Clean up the mess and let's move on.

I hope that person has come to his senses concerning this administration. The first of many.

[Hey, Rush could have organized something like this.

But he didn’t.]

I’ve thought about that. I wonder why.

BECAUSE THERE IS NO M O N E Y in it.
