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.
Free Republic 9/11 Candlelight Vigil from Washington DC
Who’s else is watching C-SPAN, I have a question for you.
Andrew Moylan just asked the crowd to text to a number and he would compile the numbers of attendance and get it to all the media outlets - cool idea!
Love to get an aerial shot of this.
I’m sure the WH would like for FR to go dark right about now.
While it would be nice to see the GOP take both of our NY Counties back to the days when we were outnumbered, I doubt either of us will live to see that happen.
GOP leaders= Jelly spines.
I’m currently watching all three (and Glen Beck on TV). There is a definate lag on CNN followed by a greater lag on CSPAN (by about 3to 5 minutes). I hope this is the explanation for the “different speakers”

The Washington DC Tea Party appears to be a big success, but it’s not for lack of trying among the movement’s more lunatic opponents. Yesterday, the DC Metro police evacuated the offices of Freedomworks after several threats, including a bomb-threat phone call that police considered credible enough to investigate:

The media loves to follow the WH talking points. I hear they get a telephone conference every morning.
I’m watching C-Span
Okay Kenny here’s mine. I am way out in West Texas, been going to this threadall day.
Don’t have a TV so have been going to Glenn’s website but nothing so far.
thank you to all those who are reporting!!
Just announced people are still coming in, roads blocked or closed, expressway blocked, God I love these patriots!
“Remember, Napalitano and her memo stating that the right wing are a bunch of terrorists.”
I WILL NEVER FORGET their attack on the law abiding citizens and our servicemen. I can’t post what I feel, I’d be banned.
“They lie”
Great sign :)
Baby was adorable, too :)
I love the shout: Can you hear us NOW?!
The Joker left town. He feared for his life.
I estimate the crowd at 1.38 trillion!
It was a known fact during the clinton terms they faxed talking points EVERY DAY to all the media outlets.
Didn’t quite hear, to be counted, it’s text 912 to which number?
Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Hey-Hey-Hey-Goodbye! —— lol
