<p>Washington -- Hoping that their sheer numbers would send a message so loud that President Bush could not ignore it, tens of thousands of demonstrators rallied in the nation's capital Saturday to oppose any war against Iraq.</p> <p>The crowd, bundled up and huddled tight against bone-chilling cold, filled several blocks of Washington D.C. in what many called the largest demonstration yet against using force to topple Saddam Hussein.</p>

IN ITS COVERAGE OF TODAY'S GATHERING OF SOCIALISTS, MARXISTS, ANTIAMERICANS, AND APATHETIC COLLEGE STUDENTS PROTESTING THE WAR WITH IRAQ, MSNBC MADE A BRIEF MENTION OF THE PATRIOT'S RALLY FOR AMERICA.... [MORE]

With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff For the story behind the story... C-Span has decided to continue its practice of covering anti-war demonstrations by ANSWER, an amalgamation of radical left-wing groups that will gather in Washington, D.C. on Saturday to stage a protest against U.S. plans to disarm Saddam Hussein by force. But the public affairs network has refused to carry the "Patriots Rally for America" counter demonstration in D.C. the same day. "C-SPAN has covered the last four ANSWER anti-war rallies in D.C.," complained Patriots organizer Kristinn Taylor. "Yet it's shown only one of our three counter-demonstrations to them."...

The troops are massing — not for war but for a "No War on Iraq" march in the District slated to begin 11 a.m. tomorrow on the National Mall. Organizers say they are hoping thousands of anti-war activists will show up in subfreezing weather for the protest, which will feature two hours of speeches followed by a 16-block walk to the Navy Yard in Southeast. D.C. law-enforcement agencies will increase manpower and close streets where demonstrators plan to march. Third and Fourth streets from Independence Avenue SW to Pennsylvania Avenue NW will be closed tomorrow from 7 a.m. to 9...

Last Saturday, Oct. 26, I did something I’ve never done before. I went to a rally for action against Saddam Hussein in Iraq. This was a counter protest to the anti-war protesters who were also there. This was billed as the second Patriot’s rally, it was held in Washington, DC on the grounds of the Washington monument by the DC chapter of FreeRepublic. This would be my first time attending such a rally and I was both apprehensive and excited, not really knowing what to expect. The day started with Sauropod and KLT picking me up at the train stop...

I'm still sifting through all the photos I took on Saturday, but have begun uploading them to web. So, rather than making everyone wait until I get them all up, here's what I've got so far...

I'd like to repeat a quick point I made on the DC Chapter Patriots' Rally On C-Span (11:20 p.m. ET) thread (and I know I'm going to get flamed for this, so the flame-proof suit is ON!). This development (the kill Saddam Iraqis who joined the DC Chapter Patriots Rally this past day), which I was amazed to see, has made me think. I think we should try to keep the Islam/Arab-bashing (the unwarranted kind) to a bare minimum. Many of these Iraqi freedom fighters have now heard about FR and may visit our site. These brave Iraqis show us...

It's now been a week and a day since The Patriots Rally for America, and Gore_ War_ Vet's truck is still MIA somewhere in our nations capital; thanks to some unknown tow truck driver on the city of DC payroll. Gore_ War_ Vet and I had unloaded all our rally supplies from our vehicles at the rally site on Constitution Avenue at 7:30am last Saturday, April 20th, and we then headed off to find parking. Parking on Constitution Avenue is usually allowed, but the street was marked with "Emergency - No Parking" signs because the radical left's pro-intifada demonstration was...

Once upon a time, the D.C. Chapter of Free Republic decided to hold a rally so patriotic men and women could take a stand for all that is good about America and to support our troops fighting for us in the war on terrorism. The organizers decided that there must be porta-potties available for use by the event staff and all those courageous individuals who dared to gather together in the midst of the anti-war, anti-American masses bused in to cause disruption to our nation’s Capitol. And so, the story unfolds: The stage was delivered at 5:30 a.m. to be...

Thousands of pro-America demonstrators organized by the web site FreeRepublic.com are expected in Washington, D.C. Saturday, braving what city officials fear could be a wave of anti-globalist protesters hell bent on violence.Police are braced for tens of thousands of anti-capitalist hooligans and terrorist sympathizers to fill city streets. In a sign that things could turn ugly, city workers cleared sidewalks on Friday of anything that wasn't nailed down. FreeRepublic's "Patriots Rally for America" was planned as a counterbalance to the previously scheduled weekend of anti-American mayhem. "It's a non-partisan rally to support America and to support our troops fighting the...
