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.
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”.
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.
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.
