Thousands Gather for Glenn Beck Rally in DC (A Thousand Camping Out Overnight at Lincoln Memorial)
Thousands of people have already poured into Washington, D.C. for a Saturday rally organized by conservative radio and television commentator Glenn Beck.
Beck has consistently held the Restoring Honor event will be non-political in nature. Speeches will honor American heroes, said Beck, who asked his supporters to not bring signs or wear partisan t-shirts.
Why have people come from many different states? John Seeland of Stuart, Florida, had an answer:
"I would say we're going a little bit too much toward Socialism in the country. Too much kind of groupthink and too much away from individual freedom and individual actions and individual responsibility."
Although camping is illegal on the National Mall, hundreds of people are choosing to spend the night on the grassy lawn of the Mall on both sides of the Reflecting Pool. They are doing that to get a better view on Saturday. Police say, as long as people remain awake, they may stay.
A reader emails that if you search Google MAPS today, on the eve of Glenn Beck’s rally, a search for Lincoln Memorial turns up, instead, the wrong address. And not just any wrong address either; it takes you to the FDR Memorial. Curious.
A quick look at Google Trends shows that Lincoln Memorial is, at the time of this posting, the fourth most popular search term. (Glenn Beck Rally comes in 7th, and “Restoring Honor Rally” is the top hot topic.

Tony LaRussa and Albert Pujols Tony LaRussa and Albert Pujols are going to be there and the liberal media is having a fit about it.
Albert Pujols is the 9 Time All Star First Baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals.
Tony LaRussa is his Manager of the St. Louis Cardinals for the last 14 years, he’s the only manager other than Sparky Anderson (Cincinnati Reds & Detroit Tigers) to win World Series Championships in both leagues (Oakland A’s) - 1989 (St. Louis Cardinals - 2006.
La Russa, Pujols will appear at Washington rally
Cardinals first baseman and three-time NL Most Valuable Player Albert Pujols will be among several honorees at a highly publicized and potentially politically charged Saturday morning rally expected to draw more than 20,000 to The Mall.
Organized by Fox News talk show host Glenn Beck and featuring former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, the “Restoring Honor” rally is scheduled to take place at the base of the Lincoln Memorial on the 47th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech.
Beck, who met Pujols at Busch Stadium before a June appearance at Chaifetz Arena, is promoting the event as an apolitical celebration of the First Amendment and the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Cardinals manager Tony La Russa, scheduled to introduce Pujols, insisted Thursday that he and Pujols are attending only after receiving assurances that the event is not a thinly disguised political rally.

Wild Thing's comment........
This is unprecedented in recent history of rallies on the Mall in D.C. to have a thousand people camping out at the rally site the night before. Many more will be arriving throughout the night last night because Beck is starting the rally at 10 a.m. EDT.
God Bless all the American Patriots gathering this weekend!
....Thank you Anon for the links.

I hope this rally is a huge success with even more attendees than expected. I bet the Mall doesn't look like a landfill when this rally is over.

Well I'd like to know who designed that thing. a Box for a roof that's about as aestectic and as a cow stuck in a sink hole.
But other than that I thought the rally was great. Sarah Palin was her Primo self, I've been smitten by that girl. And the crowd size will give the MSM more fodder for their empty cannons.

Tom, they had a really huge turnout, I was so glad so many came to it.
Jan, it really was,thanks so much. Glad you got to catch it.
Mark, while I was watching it I was wondering about the sun beating down on all of them.

I was at the Restoring Honor Rally and the day was the best! Blessed day. All you could see was people, a sea of people, and all of them there to draw closer to the Creator and Divine giver of our lives, Liberties, Rights and Freedom. Truely, to be there and feel the Blessing of Heaven thwere was a kodak memory to last foerever.
God's hand is upon you , Glen. When He is in the matter, nothing can hold you back!
