I know you're spoken for (as am I). It's just such an apt metaphor that I think will speak truth to power. I think it is gonna take off as being the symbol of freedom loving people.  :-)

I liked that clip. I thought the reporter obsessed over Joe Wilson a tad too much, but overall was a lot better than most CNN reporters.

I happened to be watching Faux News Channel and they were referring to the protesters as anti-reformers as teaser for some Geraldo episode. Was that Geraldo's choice of words or what? In any case, they are misrepresenting the cause. The protesters are anti-big government, period, get it right or stfu.  :-)

It's too bad the Republicans did not put forth as much effort to find a canidate that could win. The grass roots activism from the Right is great, just a few years too late.

I talked to a friend of mine tonight who works with Dick Armey's group that helped organize the event and he said it was "1.5 million people easy"...

And this...  I bet Obama had to immediately visit the on-board "head" once he saw the crowd.

As Mr. Obama traveled to Minnesota on Saturday to rally support for his health care plan, he flew over the assembling crowd in Marine One. The helicopter could be seen flying overhead as the demonstrators marched down Pennsylvania Avenue.

Obama and the Dems better wake pay close attention. This is quite definitely growing into more than just a bunch of radicals clinging to their guns and bibles.

Lamar Alexander, definitely not a "hot-head," said that if the Dems try to force this through, there will be a "minor revolution" by people in the 2010 elections.  I'd take out the word "minor" and push up the time frame a tad, IMO.

Lurking DUmb****s--it will be a violent, bloody revolution--and it will end horribly for your side.  You are warned.

The definitive answer to the number in the crowd:  

This is a graphic from USA Today showing how they counted the number of people at Zero's inauguration.  
http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2009-01-19-crowd_N.htm



Then look at the time lapse video from yesterday (and to lurking dummies ~ no this video is not faked or edited).  This is the same video from above.

I wouldn't be surprised if it came out to be 1.5-2 million range.

It seems now the left is demonizing this time lapse video as being from another event, and not at all connected to the 9/12 demonstration. I found yet another link of great photos I've not seen here yet that would be impossible to deny as one can read the protest signs in the crowd shots.

The White House on Friday claimed it was unaware of the planned rally.

"I don't know who the group is," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told reporters with a shrug.

This pissed me off more then anything else.  I don't think I'd even hesitate to punch Gibbs in the face for such a smug lie.

Newest downplay attempt..



Look at the skycrapers to the left of the Washington Monument . The empty photo was taken from much much further back than the Onauguration, not from in front as is suggested in the article.
