1. Thanks, Breeze. I've been up since 2 AM Pacific Time... I think I'm eager and anxious to see
their coverage.

Sorry I couldn't be there, but I'll be there in absentia...

4. God bless all you Peace Makers!
Edited on Sat Jan-27-07 08:51 AM by ShortnFiery
Please remember from this South Dakota gal that "dressing in many layers" really works to keep one warm. :thumbsup: Further, help keep your friends warm by offering them many hugs. ;) :grouphug: The term from my active duty days, "Make your buddy smile" seems apt for this cold day in D.C.

Those of us who pray for PEACE and UNDERSTANDING among peoples' of the world are with you in spirit.

Many of us will be watching CSPAN.

*IMPORTANT NOTE to DUers with Internet Broadband capability today:

WE can monitor the activities ON GROUND (many intersections and streets) by using Trafficland.com (see link below)

TOP WASHINGTON D.C. WEB CAMERAS: http://www.trafficland.com/findacamera/findacamera.php?city=WAS&maptype=flat&map=100

EARTH CAM - Capitol CAM: http://www.earthcam.com/usa/dc/metrosquare/

As a person who is blessed with honorable Police Officers in my family, it's VERY GOOD advice to be "very polite" so as not to rouse the unfortunate *power tripping* cops who ALWAYS EXIST. Please remember, wherever there is a Cop getting out of line, there are also GOOD and REASONABLE Cops in the immediate area. IF you can be *thoughtful* often the good cops within earshot can early-on intercede on your behalf. <-- Just my 2 cents. :shrug:

We are NOT Communists but your patriotic friends and neighbors! {morans?) Many of us are military veterans such as myself who honor Military Service. It's our incompetent civilian LEADERS we are trying to have held accountable today.

God Bless the American Patriots (and World Citizens) who are marching for "Peace." :patriot: :hi:

The last time they stayed glued to a tight focus on the podium and we listened to miscellaneous heartfelt diatribes while hundreds of thousands marched unseen....

And the scorn they are heaping on The Decider. Speaking of The Decider, where is his sorry cowardly butt hiding out today?

43. The march itself is being covered WHERE?
The only thing I see is a webcam. Where is the aerial coverage? Where are the cameras out in the streets? This is less coverage to me, than back when the huge march in NYC took place...

Anybody?

I'm starting to think there are so many more people in DC, that they aren't SHOWING the "magnitude" photos.

It's all over the net and on regular TV! (And on cable!)

There will be aerial shots! I heard helicopters at the rally.

There were aerial shots in '05!

Don't despair!! This news is all over everywhere!!!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Here's the aerial shot from 09-24-2005



I found it on www.whatreallyhappened.com

Maybe they'll have a new one! ;)

51. Re: the aerial shot... I hope you are right and we get them.
I AM in despair right now, how could you tell? LOL. I've been screaming in house since cspan cut to Hillary.

I know it's important to hear her, but I thought the timing was truly awful.

I'd have loved to see media coverage that she REFUSED the coverage until the PEOPLE'S MARCH was covered in it's entirety.

This is what we need. We are getting bits and pieces, and I feel like we are supposed to be grateful for the tiny grains they "allow" us to have.

I like your positive view, it's certainly healthier than mine. I may adapt it. Thanks.
