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 thought that at first, too - Nobama is a chicken and left town; however, then my thoughts changed/expanded a bit - - I wondered how long he has had his speech planned and, if it was decided that he should do a speech when they found out when the Rally would be there and/or did some hurry up planning after his abysmal performance Tues night. Did he (or his puppet masters) decide that he should leave town and do the speech so that at least some of the channels would not show the Rally, but show his speech instead (when I flipped channels it looked like at least MSNBC and CNN were doing just that - CSPAN was going to have it on after the Rally). And, of course the DBM newspapers will give him more coverage, so he diverts attention and publicity away from the Rally and back to the One. The less people that see the Rally may believe the DBM’s lies that there was just a small crowd there.

I guess you can see who focuses on race and it’s not us!

These lying leftist can talk the talk but they sure as hell don’t walk the walk.

Liberals are the biggest hypocrites on the face of the earth. They FOCUS on race every single day of their lives. They PRETEND to care about them but I guarantee you if they don’t agree with their views they are ‘uncle Toms’, ‘traders’, ‘Clarence Thomas’, etc.!

Hi Bat Lady! I attended the rally at the Capitol where we had over 100 standing in the torrential rain. My rain-soaked sign with ink-running down said:

WE
NEED
INSURANCE

AGAINST
GOVERNMENT
INTERFERENCE

with the Obama O symbol in GOVERNMENT.

I am gathering signatures for Missouri Soverignty resolution. Some dumbass sat there and said “well I have to ‘think’ about it. We are GOING TO REASSERT our 10th Amendment RIGHTS as a state and have 2 FANTASTIC Congressmen (1 Rep, 1 Senator) that are going to carry the battle to Missouri’s session (beginning in January).

Other than that.......I’m sitting here trying to find some live footage of DC. And yes.........trying to clean house (so shoot me..........I’m getting ready to sell at a bargain price so I can join the fight financially)

Were there really that many people there?

Estimates are all over the place. Someone reported that the US Park Service estimated 1.2 million. Whatever the number, this march is outstanding. I'm just sorry I couldn't be there. Instead I will donate some money to Rep. Joe Wilson.

Deneen Borelli was a great (black) speaker today! She was one of the most memorable, IMO.

Hey, you can have the last word on happy. I figure they are smiling in the face of those who doubted the event could ever be pulled off. Seems the smelly left draws big crowds, have angry faces and smash property.

The Port-a-potties had the names on them before they were taken off of the flat bed trucks?

That sounds like a good plan!

I saw some of the pictures, and there was a sea of people on the mall.

I’ll bet these figures are truer than the Million Man March figures were!
