Did Comedy Central get their portable bathrooms today? Any reliable estimates of the crowd size?
However many showed, it was a piddling crowd without those Portapotties. ;)
They didn’t need the port-a-potties after all, the Queen of Bathroom etiquette, Sheryl Crow, was there to perform and had all that covered.
Any on the grounds pics of garbage left after the event?
I’m surprised at how little attention the MSM payed to it. Both CNN and Fox had a small blurb about it but spent far more time on the Mail Bomb and Election. I’m thinking the rally was a bigger bust than the “No Socialist Left Behind” rally last month.
They probably Pee’d openly and threw their Garbage and Trash around for the Slaves to pick up after them! After all, they are the Elite,if only in their own depraved minds!
The report I saw stated that Stewart’s Zoo only applied for PortaPoops for 60,000! The Pictures show that that was wildly more than they really needed!
C-Span replaying right now...looks like a large crowd to me. I would say not a bust when compared to the Communist Rally, but a bust in terms of content. Was supposed to be funny but came across as dumb and pointless instead...
As I was grabbing for the remote, I had the misfortune to hear the first few seconds of Whorealdo’s show on FNC just a few minutes ago, and his comment was “While the crowd may not have been as big as Becks...it was big indeed”.
DITTO...I couldn’t grab the remote fast enough to miss Whorealdo..
Watching NCIS rerun now...so much better!
“While the crowd may not have been as big as Becks...it was big indeed”................................. Beck didn’t have any big time entertainment to draw in the yoots. We are dealing with apples and oranges when comparing the two. Beck was a religious revival type rally vs a vaudeville type rally made up of people not concerned about religion as they are about having a fun time.
CBS put Beck’s rally at 89,000.
Stewart/Colbert must have been 25,000.
I didn’t see any wide shots that would help in determining crowd size. I did notice that there seemed to be more black people in the band on stage than in the entire crowd.
The media has told me that’s a good indicator of racism.
atlasshrugs has good side by side pictures.
Colbert/Stewart wasn’t even half of Becks.
The 2008 marathon had 18,228 finishers, and about 150,000 spectators.
What do you think all of these people did today? I heard last night that they are expecting 30,000 runners. Then again, there were people at the Clownfest carrying signs that had pictures of Republicans on them with Hitler moustaches drawn on them. And then there were all those federal employees carrying those "Government Does Not Suck" signs. This whole thing was a farce.
The majority of the crowd were racists,Islamaphobe, homophobes, and ‘cowards’, because the media have determined if you’re white, you’re racist..., and that was a mostly white crowd..
Comedy Central’s park permit puts the crowd estimate at 60,000.
That’s what I was looking for. Thanks
FYI..Got this from Drudge.
FLASHBACK: CBS put Beck rally at 87,000......but Nat’l Park Service said 300,000-325,000 at Beck...
Time better spent. Everytime I tuned in it looked kind of lame. A slapdash type of thing, the equal to a bunch of kids staging a backyard play.
