[thundley4]

There was no protest on Saturday, no crowds, nothing to see.

From MSNBCs report on the protest; does that look like a sign???

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 time lapse is real if you ask me

All I have to say is "if the moustache fits, he wears it well."

So there were anywheres from 50k-2.5M people in DC yesterday, depending on who you ask? I saw some report on NBC that put the number "in the hundreds of thousands", can they possibly be even more vague? Playing around with lens width to distort the figures is easily seen . . .

[DixieBelle]

Yes, the picture is real nutroots.

Great crowd shots too.

Saturday's "Tea Party" rally in Washington, D.C. far exceeded almost all expectations. Local police agencies estimated around 1.2 million people attended the rally, but several news outlets, including ABC and Fox News, said the crowd was nearly double that, with an estimated 2 million people in attendance.

Several different groups combined to organize the rally, including Glenn beck and his 9/12 project and former Congressman Dick Army and the FreedonWorks Foundation, but most of those in attendance came on their own and said they had never taken part in any type of protest before Saturday.

On Friday the White House claimed they had no idea the rally was even planned. [YOU LIE!]A ridiculous assertion that shows how dismissive the Obama administration and the Democrat-led Congress are of those who oppose their agenda.

The time lapse IS REAL.  It was from one of the DC traffic cameras and I was watching it yesterday as it happened.

and my friend whose blog alleges racism will probably be astounded to see this. It wouldn't surprise me that the leftists would call him an "Uncle Tom" or some such similar epithet.

....we could go on. The only racists are the ones that think black people are so stupid that they all think the same way. That would be the Dims.

This would make a good thread for Political Ammunition under the title of Prominent Black Republicans (PBR's).  You could even put a little quiz in where people have to identify dimocats from Republicans. You know, an assortment of prominent dims like Marion "Toot" Barry, "Cold Cash" Jefferson, Jessie Jackson Junior, Charlie 'the lyin' Rangel, intermixed with Prominent Republicans mentioned in your post.

1. Tons of trash removed
2. Arrests
3. Vandalism
4. Public drunkeness/drug use
5. actual tax payers involved
6. education level of attendees
7. Criminal records

The Democrats would use those numbers to validate their point - that nobody showed up..

If this has already been posted, I apologize.  However, I find it quite interesting that the American new media keeps saying "thousands."

A million march to US Capitol to protest against 'Obama the socialist'

 As many as one million people flooded into Washington for a massive rally organised by conservatives claiming that President Obama is driving America towards socialism.

The size of the crowd - by far the biggest protest since the president took office in January - shocked the White House.

Great pics, too!

I heard on the radio that the official police count could have been 1.2 million - 2 million, but that has not been confirmed, yet.

Sorry, Mrs. Smith... someone beat you to it.  I'll get them all merged together once I track them down.

PJ Media had an interesting article.  Apparently the Forrest Service stopped estimating crowd size after Farakhan's Million Man March resulted in less than half the advertised number.  The practice was reinstated for the O-bot's inauguration.

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. 

Awwww.........Oh well, maybe in the next life. Besides, "Toots" would KILL me! I'd like to at least marry off my grangirls before she does!

Over a million people...and our media are working so hard to conceal that number.  If these had been moonbats, the media would be crowing about the "several millions" that jammed into DC.
