The 9/12 March On Washington, 2010

On Sunday, FreedomWorks held its second annual  9/12 March on Washington.  Speakers at the rally, this year focused on the Contract FROM America, a plan FreedomWorks has been asking politicians to sign and pledge to follow.

The forecast said rain, but the most it did was light drizzle and misting. By the end of the rally, the sun was trying to break through the clouds.

The Daily Caller reports:

FreedomWorks President and CEO Matt Kibbe estimated the crowd size at around 100,000 Tea Partiers, a crowd smaller than last year’s march, something he said may be partly attributable to the fact several 9/12 rallies were going on simultaneously nationwide and that Fox News personality Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally was held in Washington at the end of August.

Gateway Pundit has this report on the St. Louis 9/12 tea party, which attracted approximately 14,000.

The DC march began at 10:00am with a non-denominational service at the Washington Monument, led by Reverend C.L. Bryant. The march began at 12 noon, and headed down Pennsylvania Avenue to the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

I took tons of pictures and videos during  the DC march, and later at the rally, focusing  on the signs because I love them so much.
