The main stream press is lying again. Please read all the press accounts and you will note that not one of them gives a specific number. AOL headlines 800,000 protest Bush, but in the article it says estimates range from 300,000 to 800,000. Some truth! The fact is this charade of baby killers was a flop!

I wonder about this. The Washington Times doesn't give a figure, but they call it " the largest demonstration against the agenda of a sitting president in decades." IOW, bigger than the last pro-murder march in '92. I just wonder if we are fooling ourselves that this was not a huge political event, and I also wonder why the Pro-Life counterdemonstration was so poorly attended, reportedly only a thousand or two! The babykillers claim they had 2500 volunteers putting little "count me in" stickers on all the marchers and they used over a million of them. Also the police reported that the march was huge. Are we in denial?

The D.C. police department estimated 250,000.

Even if we are in "denial" (which I believe I am not), no matter what the number of people who attended this event actually was, had no impact! Have you noticed even the main stream press & media gave this scant coverage for such a big event? Why because close scrutiny would have hurt their cause even more. With all the gays/lesbians, communists, socialists, America haters, left-wing Democrats, etc. filled with their hate and untoward gestures (one of the speakers pulled up her blouse to reveal her bra, ala Janet Jackson, etc.),this gathering of misfits has no impact on anyone but themselves. They are not living in the real world and the majority of Americans, even a great portion of those who promote and support abortion would not want to be associated with what took place on Sunday. This gathering was a "nothing" event and has no measurable impact whatsoever!
