Please post your updates from D.C. and from news reports here as well as your photos of the day.

Our Walter Reed salute to the troops last night was very well attended. Upwards of 800 people were there over the three-plus hours of the demonstration.

Photos and video taken by This Ain'tHell taken in daylight before the bulk of the crowd showed can be viewed here.

I don't know if this is being reported yet, but there are many, many boats that traveled up the Potomac (south to north) towards DC. Imho, much more than normal, especially considering the weather. It was like a little armada. Will try to post pictures.

That’s my thought as well. I would expect the numbers to be 250-500k.

Anyone watching this see any Confederate flags in the crowd? UPI is reporting the crowd waving “American and Confederate flags”.

Have yet to see any Confederate flags in any of the pictures.

I thought I saw a Gadsden Flag.
Newsies don’t know history, so in their mind anything other than the stars and stripes would mean ‘Confed’ to them..?

Does it matter in the grand scheme of things to pin the exact number down to the exact degree of K????

You just read my mind. The fact that so many patriots decided to leave their safe havens and finally take a stand speaks volumes of the anger out there. Hopefully the GOP in congress will take note and grow the same backbone.

He’s doing great and sounds like the crowd is loving it. Probably can’t run for political office since he’s in NY! :)

They were giving away trans-siberian orchestra concert tickets and you had to go to the rally if you wanted them. No thanks even though I love that band!

Watching on C-Span and Fox and CNN and MSNBC. One of the channels showed and over head shot. The crowd is unbelievable. It looked like a solid mass of humanity from the Capital back.

There are so many people. I wish they’d get that car sales off though.

this brings me back to freerepublic’s first march on washington that was on cspan. I love cspan, no commercials, and no commentary. Yee Haw!

I've been trying to get the live streaming on C-SPAN to load and it just won't, dang it.

I have it streaming on Communist News Network and so far, they aren't filtering it with their usual cr@p.

Wouldn't bother me if I did see one. That's a great states rights symbol.

This is just a common man. Not a politician or community agitator.

God Bless you Mr Anderer!
