Almost two million people, making it the largest march in history!!!

I love how Faux News said it was only "tens of thousands." Check out this pic (I post, you decide...):

The speeches are on C-SPAN right now and they're rather inspirational, IMO. Carmen Vasquez, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Whoopi, and Camryn Manheim were phenomenal.

One of my colleagues is there. (She's the faculty yenta, so I'm sure I'll get the full scoop.)

I saw the entire thing -- it was great! All the speeches were inspirational. I loved reading the signs in the crowd, especially that one that said "Abort Bush in November..."

Now I know these abortion people have a fuzzy definition of murder but I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that would be murder

An attorney from our office attended as well...she's still out of town today on business, but I wanna hear all about it when she returns.
