From Post-Gazette.com:
WASHINGTON — A sea of protesters filled the west lawn of the Capitol and spilled onto the National Mall yesterday in the largest rally against President Barack Obama since he took office, a culmination of a summer-long season of protests that began with opposition to a health care overhaul and grew into a broader dissatisfaction with government.
On a cloudy and cool day, the demonstrators came from all corners of the country, waving American flags and handwritten signs explaining the root of their frustrations. Their anger stretched well beyond the health care legislation moving through Congress, with shouts of support for gun rights, lower taxes and a smaller government.
There is something very exciting about seeing people with passion, armed with knowledge, taking an active stand against what they believe is wrong. I was very happy to see the footage on Saturday and I hope it continues. Keep it up, America.
