Vermin.

200,000? What were they doing, counting fingers and toes?

[Dialup Llama]

>Caroline Lucas, of the Green Party told the crowd: "The eyes of the world are on Trafalgar Square today. We are making history."

The eyes of the world ARE on Trafalgar Square today and we don't see 200,000 protestors.

[Snowy]

Are these numbers right?

[Davea]

Gee I wonder if any of them were mourning the loss of lives in Turkey? Vermin is right.

[CWOJackson]

They're counting using the metric system.

[ImaGraftedBranch]

The news just said it was 35,000. LOL

[VaBthang4]

LOL...FOXNEWS reports a number cloer to 35,000.

The Poor Liberal mirror....up to New York Times tricks.

Eyewitness report from a London blogger

"This protest march has just gone by my office window - the length of the column was no more than 25 yrds............but it will be reported by the media as 'massive'."

[Cobra64]

"Tony Blair added insult to injury by bringing this ignorant, foolish and dangerous man to these shores and I think we are speaking for the majority of the country."

A man with an MBA from Yale is "ignorant?" A self made millionaire is "foolish?"

[over3Owithabrain]

Are these numbers right?

FoxNews says 50K. Even CNN, who would love to boast big #s, says "thousands", maybe 70k at most.
So no, this report is bullshit.

[VaBthang4]

Great user id. :o)

[Callahan]

Here comes the predictable shouting match about crowd numbers. Who cares how many terror-symps bothered to show up. They are irrelevant as far as I'm concerned. Do you count the nuts in a crappy fruitcake?

[Chummy]

According to our UK sources, the number was perhaps 70,000.

70,000 in a city of how many million?

70,000 whining know-littles with nothing more to do than spend their time in a romp that, if given heed, would lead to their destruction and that of western civilization as we know it.

[over3Owithabrain]

Do you count the nuts in a crappy fruitcake?

No, actually I pick them out like scabs and toss them is the toilet. Hey, great idea...

[Coop]

Why, there must be 50,000 in that photo alone!

[Callahan]

Extend that toilet analogy to the English Channel and we've got a workable plan here.

[TheBattman]

A massive demonstration against George Bush drew up to 200,000 marchers on the streets of London today.

I guess the same counters that counted the million moron march are counting these marchers.

[hellinahandcart]

I'm not sure I would even call it 100,000:

[DeFault User]

Former Labour MP George Galloway spoke to the crowd and described the march as "unbelievable".

I'll say this for Galloway--when Saddam buys a Brit politician, he stays bought.

BTW, why isn't he in jail?
