Ed Hiserodt over at The New American made an excellent point about the rally in DC. And that point is that no one at the rally was asking for any kind of handout from the Federal Government.

Something to think about when you think of all of the previous marches that have occurred in DC.

It is likely that never in the last 150 years has there ever been such a mass demonstration at the capitol where the participants were not asking for a federal handout, a law favorable to special interests, or some other sort of favoritism. Instead, the marchers were demanding that the government obey the Constitution and "just leave us alone." Many people would come up to a stranger and say such things as "I am so very glad you are here" and "Isn't it wonderful thing to be an American today?" While not sure about the reaction of others to these heartfelt comments, your correspondent had a very difficult time holding back the tears. In fact, recalling that feeling, I'm having the same difficulty right now.

Well said!
