“...hundreds...”
Interesting, how crowds are inflated for one group, and denigrated for another. Facebook @ 160,000. C-Span?
take a guess. rally? likely @ 9/12 at this point.
This is just the start, folks. Read “Democracy in America”
before you vote.
But for sure, cover the diffrence in the amount of trash that will be left behind compared to Obama.
kendwell
Now, why didn’t Nanzi walk through the crowd with her giant gavel and cadre of dark skinned comrades to provoke a reaction?
I think the National Park Service doesn’t officially give crowd estimates anymore. After complaints that the crowd was undercounted at the Million Man March, decisions were made that it’s not worth it to publicize an official number of people attending events there.
Fear not, my friends!!! Today’s numbers whatever they were, were a sign of what the voter numbers will be against the Democrat Party and POTUS Barack Hussein Obama come Election day, November 2, 2010!!! The “drive by media” will not have to estimate the numbers that evening!!! And....today’s magnificent turnout is both a salute and tribute the Martin Luther King and Glenn Beck!!! As for Al Sharpton and his CBC/NAACP racist cohorts, their miserable number of folks who turned out for their race rant is not worth mentioning!!! The good and refreshing news is the overwhelming majority of American Blacks stayed away and are, hopefully beginning to get it realizing that they have been had, used and abused by the chosen one Barack Hussein Obama and the likes of Sharpton, the CBC and NAACP!!! Time for Black folks to shove Obama under the bus where he belongs!!!
I would like to see pics from the million man march next to these shots for a comparison if any one could do it
You can scroll down here for reported pics of the million man and million woman marches:

That’s an excellent photo, but the caption is pretty comical:
“Tens of thousands of people have attended a rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC, which organisers say is aimed at staging a political tribute to traditional American values.”
It’s pretty obvious the crowd exceeded 100,000 and the only issue is how many hundreds of thousands.
In fact, Politico does not WANTY to say. This left wing outfit simply wants to muddy the waters by denying the crowd size.
Early on the morning of Aug. 28, 1963, the National Mall in Washington, D.C., was empty apart from a few sightseers. But by midday, close to half a million people were massed peacefully among the monuments and museums for what became one of the most important events in the civil rights movement: the March on Washington.http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129470920&ft=1&f=1003
Well, they could estimate Dr. King's crowd back in 1963 but they can't estimate Glenn Beck's crowd? Does anyone notice MLK's crowd ONLY goes half way up the reflecting pool while Glenn Beck's crowd went up all the way to the Washington Monument. If there were half a million at King's ralley then just from the picture alone there had to be a million at today's ralley.
I was there and when we left we could see crowds standing as far back as the Washington Monument.
600K to 1 million easy.....10’s of thousands is an insult to us all.
“Haha. The only crowd pic I’ve been able to find of Al’s rally:”
I bet most were all local. All they had to do was walk down the street.
from the Licoln Memorial to the WW2 memorial is about 250K the side park holds 350K so it was easily over 600K, easy
Dream on. They never listened or took notice before and they wont now.
I only wish you were right, but this is about CONTROL for them and nothing else.
“it’s plain to see 300,000 is about the most it could have been.”
Not as much as 9/12 - but a really awesome turnout nonetheless, hey?
There were multitudes under the trees on the right.
