    Apparently the ACTUAL event was so lame they had to pull out a photo from a decade earlier to try and pass for their event.

    LOL

    So what? They don't even need photo evidence or video because Mic e Malkin said 2m people showed up. That's amazing, real grass roots work in action.

    Good job guys, marching for freedom and amendments and stuff!

    We won't get any type of retraction from the resident conservatives because that would mean they had a shred of intellectual honesty and integrity. We know most don't so let the parsing begin!

    My guess is that when the campaigns need to officially report actual contribution numbers, Congressman You Lie will NOT have raised a matching $1M either.

    Liars suck.

    Particularly pisses me off, because, as I've mentioned a couple of times, my Mom went and marched, and was all excited that she had been a part of "something."

    She might have been.

    But now, because of assholes; the "event" is not the story; the exaggeration of said event is.

    Also looks as if significant "playing" of people is, indeed, afoot. One can believe that they are part of a "grassroots" effort, and feel they have made an independent choice; when, in fact, they are getting worked by powerful, knowledgeable, people.

    Probably happening to both sides. religion being the opiate of the masses; it's politics.

    400,000-500,000 is still a load of people.

    Why they had to fluff up such a huge number to begin with is beyond me.

    It's like saying your 10 inch wang is really 12 inches. (gross, but I felt it was pertinent)

    I would like to apologize for my statement 3 days ago...

    "I seriously doubt there were over even a million. Maybe 100,000 or so. But, either way...there were plenty.

    I heard Joe Gibbs telling reporters at one of his press conferences, he didn't know who these people were or why they came.

    Methinks these people are right...DC is seriously out of touch with this country."


    It looks like there were quite a few more...I screwed up.

    I should probably start a thread to apologize to the board to see if I can save the "shreds of intellectual honesty and integrity" that I may have lost with this poor estimate.

    Left-wing media is saying barely anyone was there, Far right-wing is saying the crowd toppled The Persian Army at the battle of Thermopylae.

    Shocking news.


    Having actually been to a tea party and seen the crowds with my own two eyes, I can tell you there are plenty of normal non-redneck non-bubba non-uneducated people that comprise a major portion of the overall crowd population.

    When you hear information on these tea parties or whatever the official label is, FIRST think of the source of this information and their related agenda. Go out and experience these for yourself. Anything else is just words, bull .

    On Friday, he claimed not to be aware of the event.

    How does the White House not inform itself of an event that draws that many people to its front door?

    From the videos and pics I've seen, it only seems like a few 'tens of thousands'...100,000 doubtful, but maybe...not 400K...

    You keep saying this - do you really think our elected officials shouldn't pay attention to anyone who didn't vote for them? Aren't these Congressmen (and women) supposed to represent their states or their districts?

    If they keep up with that at ude, they won't have to worry about paying attention to anyone but the person handling their unemployment claim!

    I honestly believe some of them did. Obama's approval rating has dropped since taking office. I can't help but believe some of those who've changed their opinion were on the Mall on Saturday.
