Tens of thousands?

The enthusiastic crowd was generally good natured and orderly, waving hundreds of colorful placards and chanting slogans...

Sounds like a classic parade of brownshirts...

Well,.... there they go again. The Washington Post stretching the story.

Sorry for doing that Pres. Reagan I just had to use your phrasing.

An earlier post from FR people there said the draw was on the order of a couple thousand, tops.

"Not another day, not another dollar" and "This is what democracy looks like."

These fortunate citizens are lucky that people who care about this democracy place their lives on the line and voted for peace through strength.

Keep them away from power please.

Good for you, DC Freepers!!
I salute all of you from here in Texas!!

And good to hear something about Josh Sparling--we sent him Christmas cards after that horrible incident with the "child"
sending him a 'hope you DIE!!!' card at Walter Reed. >:-(
Glad to hear he's out and about now!

We will keep all of you in our prayers!

I was surprised they credited Free Republic. On the other hand, I hate the Drive Bys/MSM for giving so much exposure to the Code Pink Commies.

I am supposed to be impressed by these people. They are just people that depend on the valor of others that preserve their right to be anti american ass holes. Shame on them for even having the time to act against those that perserve their rights. Forgive me for my language.

Sad to say, but not surprising, that the Post article is dishonest once again. Not one word is said about the politics of Code Pink and the "Justice" people. And at the end of the article, the Post takes the so-called Hopkins death statistic seriously. Anyone who can read knows that the Hopkins "study" used a 1 to 10 range to create its large number.

When, if ever, will the breakthrough occur? When will any major media outlet decide that researching the facts and publishing the truth is a worthy mission?

According the the Wapo the lefties were "generally good natured and orderly, waving hundreds of colorful placards and chanting slogans"

... while the eeeeevvvvviiilll conservatives: "yelled and sported signs, such as one that read, 'Go to hell traitors. You dishonor our dead on hallowed ground.'".

Nope no bias there.

Why don't these people go home. They don't seem to understand that the very reason they can do what they are doing is because of what our people that are in uniform today. They have their Freedom of speech because of All the people they want to bring home.

Sam Hill posted some pics that suggested the newsies are inflating the numbers--again. Compare these to the ones on his thread from the pro-life march. Far more people there, yet they didn't even suggest a number for the crowds.
