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.

Update: 9-12 March on DC

I was very disappointed in Beck also. I thought he was going to show the party. In fact, Fox has been a big disappointment. So glad that I decided to try C-Span

That was 4 years ago. Yes, a major mistake in an otherwise totally consistent commitment to conservative principles. His intent was good, but he let himself be rushed into pushing a badly flawed idea by people like the Club for Growth. It was not thought through, and he knows it. The thing about him is that he listens. And he got an earful. He won’t make that same mistake again.

As for FreedomWorks, they may have been the organizers of this rally, but if they think they can control the movement, rofl. This is its own life form, and FreedomWorks will call the shots about as successfully as the Weather Channel can dictate to a tsunami when and where it will hit.

No, I held it in until I got back to the hotel room.

Although I did hear in the hotel lobby that ACORN was selling the little yellow Gadsden “Don’t Tread On Me” flags on the street corners.

I can believe it. They appear to have no shame or conscience.

As we also visited Monticello, I couldn't help but wonder what TJ would think and say today.

JMHO, Mister Jefferson would probably be carrying a sign down Pennsylvania Avenue right now.

With some exception Fox always leads off with the missing Yale student. Glenn had a program earlier, too, of course on 9-12.

Don’t watch the rest.

Although supposedly at 22 after the hour (soon) Fox will show a piece on the Washington marchers.

Will tape it.

I believe we are watching a turning point in our nation’s history.

Oh, dear God, I hope so. I pray for it daily. For the right leaders who will help us to restore our liberties and strengths and to allow God back into our culture.

Caddell GETS IT! Last time I saw him on G Beck (first week of his big expose, Caddell was visibly shaken and said -—

“These politicians take an oath to defend the CONSTITUTION against all enemies foreign and domestic, not an oath to protect the Democratic party or the Republican party, and that’s what we are missing here.

Washington has become an enemy of the people!”
