THey appear to have pulled it — I need to look further.
A few hours ago, CNN was saying 2 million and ABC 1.2 million.
If they’d 8 or 9 in front of that 60,000 I’d believe it.
God Bless you all for going - and for standing for those of us who could not.
A Silent Majority no longer.......
I’m sure ABC’s count is less than half the total number actually there and the White House will say it was only a few hundred activists and a few thousand mind numbed robot followers. The reality is that for every one of those in Washington there are hundreds of people back home who are equally as fed up with Congress and Obama. No wonder Dear Leader left town to have his ego stroked with a ginned up rally of union thugs.
Appreciate it. The dems put out the 2 million figure yesterday so a crowd of 400-500k would be considered a “failure”. We have to be careful not to fall for their tactics. 400-500k is awesome!!!
Thanks for the great pics. There were patriots as far as the eye could see. 60-70K is a ridiculously low estimate.
No, by Monday it will have been determined that it was a form of GOP conspired virtual reality holograms or a Jedi mind trick.
I’ve hear 1.2-2 million .. so nuts to those low numbers.
Obozo, the MSM, Congress or the Senate can't pull their snow job on the public any longer.
They have wakened the sleeping giant & it's bigger than all of the liars put together!!
BS. The average baseball stadium holds 50K. The one shot from the traffic cam on Pennsylvania Ave had at least 3 stadiums worth of people.
TOTAL BS from the leftist FD
I was actually there, and I would say the crowd in these photos actually numbered between 200,000 and 300,000.
One more image, this is the Promise Keepers rally, I don't have the date handy, but the estimate for this crowd is 700,000 to 800,000 people.
I heard it was a bunch of Glenn Beck cardboard cutouts.
At first glance that might sound eco-unfriendly, but OTOH none of them were observed using the Porta-potties all day long...
We were being told that from the guest speakers. Now I hear that the crowed estimate was about 450,000.
The streets were shut down to traffic from the Capitol to the Washington Monument because of us. I believe that that is a two mile stretch. We were not permitted to use the Mall as there was another event going on today as well so we had to use the streets. If it is true that these roads were closed for that long of a stretch then I believe that the number is closer to the one million mark rather than 450,000.
Amazing video!
They can try all they want to - but it's going to fall flat!!
It's great that so many people showed up. You can fool some of the people some of the time - but you can't fool a crowd of THIS size!!
The DC Fire Dept is lead by Racist.
It will be fun to watch the marxists’ try to explain away the numbers early next November...with ACORN tied up in court; maybe we will get a reasonably accurate election.
