RESTORING HONOR RALLY – 500,000 Patriots Gather to Honor America
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, August 28, 2010, 10:53 AM
The patriotic crowd that had already gathered at the Lincoln Memorial today in our nation’s capital stood and sang “God Bless America” at 6:30 AM during a sound check.
No wonder the left hates these guys.

THE CROWD IS MASSIVE!
The BBC posted this photo of the giant rally today.
Glenn Beck announced, “I heard two estimates from the media. One was 300,000 and the other was 500,000. So, who knows just how many are actually here today.”
Organizers were expecting 100,000 patriots at the rally.
Live Washington DC street shots here.
NECN has video:
The state-run media is predictably annoyed with this patriotic rally.
The rally is streaming live at the Restoring Honor homepage and is also playing on C-SPAN.

Freedom’s Lighthouse has lovely Sarah Palin’s speech at the rally.
What an awesome speech!
Meanwhile, Al Sharpton’s counter freedom rally managed to attract only 3,000 supporters.

Brooklyn commented:
Three cheers.
Hoping all have a grand time.
Beck does some really fine things.
All I wish, is that he was more honest about the sincere differences between the two Parties.
The fashionable equating, the inability to actually use the words “Democratic Party”, is not helping, but enables the problem.
The fashionable anti-Republican mantra is tired in my book. WFB built a Conservative movement on basis – that is the best way.
Congrats to BECK and his passionate supporters.
Kenny Solomon commented:
The police didn’t (try to) stop the crowd from singing ?
Why not ?
They did it to school kids at the same spot.
The folks there at zero-dark-thirty were all certified typical bitter God-clingers who the administration wants (at minimum) imprisoned.
sandy commented:
This has to terrify the Left. We the American People who tried to tell the braindead Dems that we do not want this agenda were treated like dog crap. They told us we were too ungrateful to know what was good for us. Well WE KNOW what’s good for us and it ain’t more of the same.
My only worry is that someone will try to use this movement for their own ends. As a lifelong Dem am praying for the Republicans to win big. Third Party wonders will just give us more of the same. Enough with Messiahs who profess to being able to part the waters while they part me from my savings. I just want an ugly SOB who works hard and loves this country and its people.
Jean commented:
I am watching USTREAM right now and it’s great this is definitely what the left hate.

I heard the right wing of the MSM report at least tens of thousands. You can say hundred thousand Fox, it’s OK.

Jim,
There are already a few tweets saying that some Leftists have become violent against some of the Restoring Honor attendees.
Andreas K. commented:
Beck is a brilliant speaker. The whole event is a brilliant idea.
Austrian media is spewing vile hatred. They’re calling the Tea Party “provoking” for using this day and location and they call Beck “trickster”, “rabble rouser” and accuse him of forging history.
eaglewingz08 commented:
Congrats to all the patriots attending the rally. God Bless. And you can bet that these fine upstanding Americans will leave the Washington Mall cleaner when they leave than it was when they arrived. Unlike the democrap locusts who attend rallies there and are a nightmare for the Parks crews with their litter and filth and destruction.
Kemo Sabe commented:
Hey Biden…
THIS is a big f#@*n deal!
Bunni commented:
I LOVE this! It is so wonderful and inspiring. The lefties must be wetting themselves. Beck is doing an outstanding job, and his featured speakers are Great! I think from the looks of it, it must be 1/2 Million! HUGE turnout! God Bless Glenn, The Special Ops Warrior Foundation, our Military, and Brave Patriots everwhere! This is the starting shot of our VICTORY in November! Plus, all the mentions of God and our Lord Jesus must be making bho and his minions very mad…well they are all off playing golf or insulting the Bible, so tough luck, lefties!

500,000???? Charles Johson is going to get carpal tunnel syndrome banning them all from the internet.

So many heroes and patriots……Very inspirational. God Bless !!

Restoring honor!
Words that have deep meaning. Words that describe the real fight. To restore honor you first need to ask forgiveness and repent. The LORD listens and answers prayer. Funny how only those who seek to restore honor have any to begin with.

Got to add another 129,513 that are watching on US Stream Live – plus C-Span however many of them there are!
Kevin W. commented:
I’ve been watching this from the start, and I’ve noticed something very telling about the C-SPAN coverage.
All other rallies that C-SPAN has covered, they always pan the crowd from left to right to display the size of the crowd. Either it be a Gay, Hispanic, Black, or any other type of rally, C-SPAN always makes it a point to show the “big picture of the crowd” to show the viewing audience how many people have come to gather.
But today, C-SPAN has decided that this rally doesn’t deserve the equal treatment the others have had when it comes to showing the full view of the crowd. Not one time, has C-SPAN showed the “big picture pan from left to right” of how big the crowd is.
What C-SPAN is doing is showing close in, tight shots of the crowds in about five areas of the Mall. The only time C-SPAN shows a wide shot of the crowd, is when the include the reflecting pool which takes up about 80% of the tv screen.
Aren’t you glad there’s no media bias on C-SPAN.

Don’t worry Andreas. I love Germany. My time there was some of the best of my life. But you know as well as I do that the Nazis did not disappear into the woodwork on the day that they surrendered. Of course they hate Beck. Very few people in this world stand as clearly against a totalitarian resurgence – this time without the US to save us.
Tabbysmom commented:
Make that 157,905 on Facebook! It was truly inspirational to watch. It’ll be interesting to see how the MSM spins this.
Granny commented:
787,418 then – not counting C-Span. Looks like this “million man march” might actually have a million participants, even if some of us did have to participate via the airwaves!
Andreas K. commented:
Current number on ustream 130,363 viewers.
Chewed out a few lib trolls, who tried to throw in smart Nazi remarks in (horribly wrong) German, in German.
“Zeig Heil” and “Mein furher” doesn’t make anyone look smart, nor is it funny. It’s just WRONG. “Zeig” is actually the imperative of “zeigen”, which is “to point” and “to show.

You would hate Germany today. Today the Nazis run around painted green and red. They cuddle with islamo-fascists and still hate Jews. They are in charge of the country. Of course they hate Americans like Beck.
Same in Austria.
Hating America is in. Hating the Jews was never out.

Over HALF A MILLION at the Restoring Honor Rally in DC Today.
My report sums up tweets/posts from friends and other sources, and has a report of a leftists attack on attendees.
The Ass-ociated Press reports: “Thousands Gather Near Lincoln)
Kevin W. commented:
Thank you Mutnodjmet, that’s a picture C-SPAN refused to show.
And it’s not only the AP (that doesn’t mean Associated Press, it means Absolutely Pathetic) that is reporting “thousands gather” it’s all of the Saul Alinsky media. They have to down play this in order not to show the influence that Beck has, and how people trust them.
down with dems commented:
Nowhere in the media will you see the final crowd estimates for this rally described as anything other than “tens of thousands”. NO WAY will they ever admit even “one hundred thousand” showed up, certainly not “hundreds of thousands”.
The reporting on the election in November will be no different. You’ll hear all the pro-Dem spin… “it’s good that the Dems lost huge numbers of seats”, “this always happens in midterm elections”, “move along, nothing to see here”.
Ol “Rev” Al is protesting a rally honoring and raising money for our soldiers… doesn’t that make Sharpton anti-American AND a racist?

It’s very interesting how Glenn Beck keeps having new ideas that work. Who would have thought that he could write a thriller? Who would have thought that he could call a rally?
The force of good ideas is a demonstration of the power of mind.
Stuart commented:
Think also about the hundreds of thousands like myself who could not make it the 2000 plus miles to D.C. How many of us must there be whose hearts are with Beck at this moment.
This is huge.

“All I wish, is that he was more honest about the sincere differences between the two Parties.”
This is not about party politics. ahem…our country is going down the tubes by radical marxists and you are worried about party differences? When we end up with a totalitarian gov will it even matter any more?
There were as many Democrats as there were Republicans at that rally but how would you know that when it”s not about party it’s about country. You can lay the wedge issues down and join in this fight to save this country or you can cry and whine about party politics. This is serious people. We are on the precipous of collapse and Republicans CAN’T win without Conservative Dems and Indies..no way. NO WAY
Oh and didn’t someone tell you there currently is very little difference between Radical Lefties and Neo cons who occupy the halls of government? Most people do not fall into these groups. Nor do conservatives own God. Ahh, but you know all that and a bit of advice to you…don’t piss off the conservative Dems or Indies voting for Conservative Patriots because they’ll sit it out and you cannot carry the election alone. TV is the one who makes you think the rallies are all Republicans and started by Republicans (to help obimboama save face that millions of Dems hate him)….It’s NOT TRUE. Learn something and turn the TV off. (sic of the party politics that got us into this mess. Both parties are OWNED by the Bilderbergers and foreign corporations…so IF the candidate is not supportive of the constitution vote them out no matter what party…….This is the war we are in. Not the left right paradigm that they want to distract you with while Rome burns. (ran out of patience after reading this party politcs s*it for 2 years now.) HEED.
PS-(people don’t fit into little boxes. There are plenty of christian prolife Dems only you haven’t met them because they blend.)
StrangernFiction commented:
I think you can get a pretty good count from the photo that Mutnodjet has up (#25), and it ain’t tens of thousands. It will be interesting to see if Fox every gives us an accurate estimate.

Someone much smarter than me (that’s just about everybody) said something like, “There is no more powerful thing than an idea whose time has come.”
The incompetent administration, idiotic congress and Obama-worshipping liberal cretins will do all they can to libel and slander this mass movement to save the republic and restore constitutional, limited government.
You need to work hard and see this thing through. The foe has a lot to lose, is well organized and funded, and controls the media and expansive state apparatus.

Auntie Em commented:
With friends like conservatives…..screw the left.
StrangernFiction commented:
mrt,
I remember a dispute with a couple of conservative friends about BOR and how much of what he does is just play devils advocate vs. actually being clueless. This sounds like it supports the clueless argument.
If Beck is being honest, and I doubt he’d make this up, than BOR is a fool for thinking only 20K would show for this after the September rally last year. I guess this could be BOR putting up the “hey I’m no right winger” front, but I’d doubt it.
When the ego reaches a certain size, cluelesness is hard to avoid.
Granny commented:
Did you stuck around to watch Keni Thomas, one of the Army Rangers involved in Black Hawk Down, now a country music singer? Here are the songs he sang -
Circle on The Cross

He didn’t sing this one, but it reminds me of my Dad, a WWII vet who passed on last year.
Last Band of Brothers
Granny commented:
StrangernFiction, BOR is no right winger and no conservative either. Never has been. Look at how anti-Obama he was until he finally scored an interview, which he hugely softballed and then became an Obama supporter right out of the clear blue.
Having listened to BOR pontificate on numerous subjects of which he is, always has been and remains entirely clueless, I figure he is nothing more than a blowhard and utter nincompoop.

Just came from the rally. It was massive. Massive. Lots of jokes about how the MSM would never report the true crowd size. Yes, it was spotlessly clean when everyone left – all were careful to throw all trash away. Very inspiring speech from MLK’s niece – she even had her ‘I have a dream’ lines – lets see the MSM report >that<. Very inspiring, all in all.

This will be a one news cycle story for the MSM…and it will be all negative.
Their King Obama is through…and most in the media recognize it. They will try and prop him up as much as they can over the next two years…but he’s a one-termer. Hillary will be the nominee next time.
Count on it.
Beverly commented:
I too just watched the entire Restoring Honor Ralley on Facebook and am just now getting to my usual daily commentary sites. As one who was raised to value honor, truth and integrity, it is refreshing to watch Glenn Beck. Say what you will about his motives, his believers are inspired and his skeptics are not harmed. “First do no harm” is the credo of physicians. Politicians should also buy into this belief. Glenn does no harm and in my opinion does a lot of good. I was driven to tears, pride and inspiration. How anyone could listen to Glenn’s words here and on on radio and television and not be compelled to at least think and discover for themselves what is true and what is not, is beyond my comprehension.
Marie commented:
I noticed, too, that C SPAN wasn’t showing much of the total crowd. I watched Facebook at the same time, and they were giving much better shots of the crowd. But, in all fairness, they showed it from start to finish, so I think we have to be grateful for that. Congrats to Glenn, all the speakers and the whole audience for coming together as one. Great job!!
Brian commented:
Just got back.
Parked in Arlington and biked into and back out of town. Parked the bikes just off the main crowd and walked to the edge of the reflecting pool.
By far the best behaved crowd we’ve been in.
Ever.
Got many pics from ground level and all you see is people.
Smiling.
All the way from the Lincoln to Washington memorials.
We were on the less crowded side to boot.
The right message.
Fantastic day.
Amazing Grace.

On the golf coverage on CBS they just (approx. 4:45 CST) had a teaser for a later show (news?) and said “tens of thousands” attended a Beck rally today.
down with dems commented:
Isn’t it interesting how differently large crowds behave, depending on the composition of those crowds?
The type of people attending this rally are good upstanding folk, clean up their trash, don’t commit violence, don’t engage in destruction.
If we’re going to talk about the problems with our nation, we shouldn’t focus on skin color or income level and the obsession with equal outcome (instead of opportunity). We need to focus on getting more people to act and behave the way the people that attended this rally (and the other Tea Party-ish rallies) act and behave. Respectfully, conscientiously, peacefully, honorably, patriotically. Do the best you can, do it well, do everything as if signing your name to it, leave places better than you found them, do unto others… that’s the kind of stuff that’s missing from the world today, and it’s good to see that good people are still out there, and willing to make their voices heard.

Good job, Beck! And God Bless all those who turned out today (August in DC is quite hot and humid).

I just watched the St Louis news and saw protesters in front of Busch Stadium protesting Albert and Tony being a the Restoring Honor rally. I’d bet money that they didn’t even watch the rally or they would have seen it was non-political and NOT a tea party.
Why would you protest honoring the military and asking people to love, honor, and respect each other and to turn to God?
As far as C-Span coverage, the camera work was horrible, focusing on the few people who came with goofy looking hats or clothes. But why should I expect anything different?
archtop commented:
I’m sure the MSM and the American Leftists/Progressives (one in the same actually) are collectively fuming. Well there’s only one solution: They should sponsor their own Rally in Washington DC!
They could call it the Installing Marxism Rally. Guest speakers: Noam Chomsky, Barack Obama, Andy Stern, Anita Dunn, Fidel Castro, Keith Olbermann + Chris Matthews (heck the whole MSNBC lineup). Standing up proudly for Socialism and Marxism! Special SEIU demonstrations on how to beat up tea party protesters at town hall meetings.

As someone who studies history, I am amazed at just what Beck has uncovered and astonished to find that history in this country has in fact been purposefully altered.
I truly appreciate Becks work and I hope many more step up to unearth the real history of this country and to put an end to the revisionist history being perpetrated against this country.
I also noted, the only ones who are devisive and hateful appears to be those who fear the truth that Beck is exposing and the once read papers such as the NY Times and others, I will no longer so much as touch anymore because they are truly filled with deception and lies, in fact the NY Times is already smearing this wonderful day and this purveyor of the truth and the rally.

Gary D commented:
The company AirPhotosLive.com based the attendance on aerial pictures it took over the rally, which stretched from in front of the Lincoln Memorial along the Reflecting Pool to the Washington Monument. Beck and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin spoke at the rally.
Beck, who predicted that at least 100,000 people would show up, opened his comments with a joke: “I have just gotten word from the media that there is over 1,000 people here today.”
The area around the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington during a rally organized by conservative commentator Glenn Beck is seen in this aerial picture taken Aug. 28, 2010.
(Credit: AirPhotosLIVE.com) AirPhotosLive.com gave its estimate a margin of error of 9,000, meaning between 78,000 and 96,000 people attended the rally. The photos used to make the estimate were taken at noon Saturday, which is when the company estimated was the rally’s high point.
kenny komodo commented:
I couldn’t make it to Washington DC, too far, too expensive (I live in Nevada). But Thank God there are so so many patriots who did, who showed up, who flipped the bird at the left, at the administration and at good ole Joe “Hoof in Mouth” Bidum. There is some hope, after all.
Larry Sheldon commented:
“All I wish, is that he was more honest about the sincere differences between the two Parties.”
You really ought to watch a couple of Beck’s videos where he explains what he means (and what I have long believed–long before I had ever heard of him.
The short summary is that the “right” vs “left” terminology gives us the wrong mental picture.
The problem is large, initiative squashing government. And there are as many Republican proponents of that evil as there are Democrats.
With respect to the problem, it doesn’t matter–they both contribute to it.
Sure, there are differences.
But with respect to the thing that is killing us, the differences don’t matter. The similarities do.
MikeC commented:
Crowd of 96,000? Ha ha ha! You make the joke, yes?
Congratulations to Glenn for a successful and peaceful meeting – had to help my bride-to-be move to-day, but followed the whole thing online. My prayers are with all of you who attended.
Someone mentioned above that there are many Christian Democrats. True that. There are also many Republicans who have come to grips with the truth: using Caesar’s sword to do the LORD’s work is terrible policy.
