Thousands of conservative activists will arrive in Washington, D.C., today for the Taxpayer March to protest government spending under the Obama administration.
Speakers at Saturday’s rally include: Dick Armey of FreedomWorks, as well as GOP Reps. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Mike Pence of Indiana, Tom Price of Georgia, and South Carolina GOP Sen. Jim DeMint. “As far as I know this is the largest gathering of fiscal conservatives in history,” says FreedomWorks spokesman Adam Brandon.
FOX News will be covering it today.

Wild Thing’s comment……
I LOVE America and I LOVE Americans that love America too!
Those of us that cannot go to the Sept. 12th March on Washington and to stop and thank our Troops at Walter Reed are there in our hearts and souls.
It has been years since I was able to go to Walter Reed, but the visits I have made there live in my heart always.
As the day progresses I will post more about the Sept. 12th March on Washington.
Glenn Beck said he is doing a 4 hour special show on it on FOX.

Thank you WT, thank you Eden for the link.
Somehow I don’t think the Kenyan is listening nor does he care. But from the looks of that crowd he should be concerned.
Where is that tar and feathers for Congress and their ilk?
People are coming from all over the country to meet in Washington for this demonstration. Lets hope it is huge. Rush predicted it would be. If this doesn’t do it then there will have to be another one and another one until congress is shakin and they are hiding under their desks. I don’t think this will get to obama but we can sure pressure congress. And who knows maybe with enough pressure, obama will resign.
Tens of Thousands in DC for Teaparty; Tens of people at Obama & TOTUS health care pep rally in Minnesota. Wonder how well it paid?
All those right wing “terrorists” paid their own way to DC and supplied their own transportation. Unlike the paid union and racist thugs the Dems bus in in groups. Also, the conservatives know what they are there for, not a promise for something free from the government, but for freedom from the govt.
Eden, that is great thank you so much.
Jack, giggle I agree, he will be concerned
with the size of the crowd, but
bottom line I don’t think he cares.
He is a dictator and they don’t care
what the people want.
Mark, big smile……your right.
Rush was right I bet he is smiling big
too. The turnout was jaw dropping for me.
I was hoping for big but this is massive.
LOVE it.
Eden, wow fantastic thank you!!
Tom, GREAT point and that is important too.
March on Washington DC CCCP and take our country back! – Red White & Blue MOBsters USA!
