Thank you for going! I had to work, but went to the 9/12 March! You are a true American standing up for our Founding Principles. Glad to know you are here fighting with me.

So glad we went to DC! Great crowd in both numbers and attitude. The media will probably try to report a small crowd with not much impact. Not!! There were easily 40,000 people there; 25 buses came from New Jersey alone. We know people came from NC, GA, SC, FL, and Texas. Everyone stayed focused on the issue, "Kill the bill". We heard remarks from a lot of Republican congressmen from the Capitol steps. They definitely heard back from the crowd: lots of signs, chants, and cheers. Now we hope the Blue Dogs and some of the thinking liberal Democrats heard as well. Yes, the health care program needs to be improved; destroying it under a massive load of debt and bureaucracy is NOT the answer.
