Same thing.
There are trolls all over FR screaming that the crowd was nowhere near a million. Too bad for them that it was more than that. LOL
Someone needs to tell them it is half-STAFF, not half-MAST.
MASTS are only on ships.
Yeah, right. UNION streetcleaners working on a Sunday. The KOSmonuts couldn't even believe a government worker would change the flag on a Sunday.
Not sure what our number was in FL at my location, but we were just about shoulder to shoulder on one side of a bridge that spans 1 mile and people were starting to go to the other side, though very thinly lined up at its peak. I would guess around 3000 folks, in a very blue county. Even so, while I was there only 3 times did we get the finger, one person had an obama sign out their window, and one seemingly drunk scary looking woman slurred pay your taxes while driving by. That one at least evoked hysterical laughter from the crowd, and I yelled, WHY? SO YOU CAN SIT HOME AND KEEP COLLECTING THEM??? One motorist giving us the finger and not paying attention ran his rice burner into the back of a hummer as well. We all cheered LOL.
Not one person showed up to protest us in Jackson Mi.
Can we blame this on Karl Rove?? He must have set the hurricane generator on "breeze"
That’s pretty funny L0L
Conservatives are starting to pick up on the Rules for Radicals used by liberals for the last several decades but more needs to be done. If this had been a left wing protest they would have planned ahead. Somebody would have been interviewed on CNN early in the morning with a crowd estimate. And that person would have said something like, “three billion people are protesting in Washington today!” The entire left wing media would have reported that early estimate for the rest of the day without question.
If I recall correctly the Parks Service stopped keeping crowd numbers after the so-called million “man” march. There was disagreement with the thugs over the numbers, and Farrah-con’s gangsters beat up the Parks Service with threats and political correctness. So, now we have no official source for this data.
Wasn’t the Mall, along with Penn. Ave., both covered in people? Why aren’t people showing the Mall and the Ave. in consecutive photographs?

Boy did I miscount!!!!
They’re all a’twitter.
>>>>>Does that say 12:56 p.m. PT (Pacific Time)? So that makes it, what, 9:56 a.m. Eastern Time, right?<<<<<
This further confirms my suspicions that the average age of posters on DU is 13 years old.
That is what I read as well, although I did read that they made an exception for the Anointed “0”ne’s inauguration...
Once it finally dawns on them that there really WERE that many people there, watch for the DUmmies to lament that the people in this country care more to demonstrate about something like this, than they do to attend an anti-war/anti-Bush demonstration.
“This further confirms my suspicions that the average age of posters on DU is 13 years old.”
Average age OR average IQ?
