I was there, and I say more than ever~God Bless America...Keep up the fight, there are millions out there that feel just as we do...It was awesome, I no longer feel alone in our fight to ' TAKE AMERICA BACK' VIRGINIA BROOKS Subject: MORE GREAT pics and news of Sat DC protest
We were EVERYWHERE in DC......we jammed the streets and the mall. DC got a lot of money from the "POLITICAL LYNCH MOB" as CNN called it.
It appears that the Capitol surveilance cameras, which would have given further proof of the huge numbers of Americans in attendance at the D.C. Tea Party, were turned off! Coincidence? Yeah, right!
Obama ducked out of town, with his mirror and his teleprompter in tow. He went campaigning in Minnesota ...... 
This event had been promoted as a taxpayer “tea party,” but the crowd’s concerns were wide ranging, from outrage at ACORN and Obama’s socialist cadre known as Czars, to Obama’s untruthfulness. Protesters also displayed signs mocking Nancy Pelosi and others for smearing the grassroots movement as “astroturfers” and as an angry mob. 
The two photos above show a tiny fraction of the two million ABC estimates attended. At the time this photo was taken, around 1:00 p.m., Pennsylvania Avenue was still jammed completely, and the mall was packed from the Capitol Building past the Washington Monument. See aerial photos here. 
Protesters came from every state in the union. This man came from San Antonio, TX. I spoke with others from California to Maine, Florida to Alaska. 
These Ohioans took a day off their rodeo bullriding schedule. They said they’ll be back at it tomorrow. 
In the very center of the photo, above the Silence is Consent – Can You Hear Us Now sign, you can see Pennsylvania Ave., which at this time is totally blocked with protesters who cannot move forward to the Capitol area. Sorry, full up. UPDATE: Another excellent sign here Free Republic post has fabulous pics here 
Freepers! 
While Obama did the cowardly thing and ducked out of town, history was made in DC. Video of traffic cams shows 1.5 to 2 million march on 912 rally.
screen shots Nelson FOX LIVEFEED HERE Hundreds of thousands have converged on DC - not activists, not professionals, not tools of Soros orgs or mainstream media lemmings. People who have never engaged politically before. This ain't manufactured. Down on the mall -- its not "tea baggers" or 'town hallians'. It is Americans. The line of protesters completely filled Pennsylvania Avenue for blocks, all the way to the capitol, according to the D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency. People were chanting "enough, enough" and "We the People." Others yelled "You lie, you lie!" and "Pelosi has to go," referring to California congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. Others are waving U.S. flags and holding signs reading "Go Green Recycle Congress" and "I'm Not Your ATM." Some men are dressed in colonial costumes. Police on motorcycles and horses watched as the marchers passed. (more here) Obama - you will not get away with the coup. This is America. Not Europe. Or Kenya. Or Indonesia. Or some banana republic. Congress, 2010 is right around the corner. 
The left is going down. Nasty tricks: According to ABC, a man called FreedomWorks office in D.C. and said, “I put a bomb in your building, bitch.” This forced the evacuation of 50 people who were working to prepare for the event and get out the word about it. A FreedomWorks staffer told ABC News that the organization’s offices at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue were evacuated on Friday afternoon by DC Metro Police because of a bomb scare. DC Metro police has confirmed to ABC News’ Jason Ryan that the DC Metro police had, indeed, evacuated the organization’s offices after being told by the organization that it had received a bomb threat. The threat came when a man called the FreedomWorks main line and told the organization’s female receptionist: “I put a bomb in your building, bitch.” The FreedomWorks staffer who spoke with ABC News said that the organization has received multiple threats but that for some reason, the DC Metro police thought that this one was credible enough to evacuate the building. Having dispatched units to and responded to countless bomb threats in my military and law enforcement career, I can tell you that this would have shut down FreedomWorks operations for at least an hour or two as police swept the building for a bomb and any other evidence. It also would have hampered FreedomWorks’ resources as staff continued to work with and provide information to police even after the dust began to settle. UPDATE: Video from the Free Republic National Convention. Speakers are Major Stefan Cook, Lt Colonel Allen West, and Andrew Wilkow. DC censorship:
