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 swear I just heard Obama saying a lady need a double vasectomy. Did anybody catch that?

Maybe he was talking about his wife, Michele?

Obama is making me crazy with BS talk.(the Minnysota rally)

He is basically saying, in America no one should die because they get old. Pony up some money and I will make it so.

Her sign said:

“This is NOT the America my dad died for.”

How poignant and moving.

And powerful.

And may God bless little her and her family.

It very well could have been ACORN. I didn't see any ACORN signs but not sure what they're calling themselves these days. It may not have been a good PR move to have clearly visible ACORN signs around. Again, the crowd was minuscule for as much space as they had for their tents, etc.

The signs were great, really creative. This one guy had an Obama mask with a 24” limb coming off the nose, complete with a couple of small leaves growing on it (like pinnochio). There were a few dressed like the grim reaper with a sign that said Obama Care. My only dissapointment was that I never met up with the rest of the Freepers in town. It was impossible to find anyone.

THANK YOU TEA PARTY PATRIOTS!

So many of us could not be there and we are forever grateful to you for standing up for our country and for those who could not attend!
