THIS PHOTO IS NOT FROM THE TEA PARTY

Please be careful as this photo is from the million man march. The left and nutroots are using it as a tactic to discredit the real photos. Real photos will have a huge white tent in middle of field.

These are real photos from the Tea Party:

the troll is now trying to tell folks who were there it was a small turnout when in fact it could be the biggest turnout DC has ever seen.

It really grates them to know that and it really gets them that more and more folks are seeing just how far out of touch the left is .

They might control the media but word is getting out by us all, keep it up to all and well done

Again, they want to ignore us, tell us we are irrelevant, tell us to ‘shut up’. Our voices are cramping their style, inconveniencing their agenda. But, our $$ is not irrelevant to them and we are not going to be quiet. Because for every person who went to to the DC March or their own local tea party - there are probably another 50-100 at home who feels the same way. And they know it.

After seeing this thread, I went and checked, and sure enough, we had the photo in question on one of our websites. It’s gone now.

Thanks!

This piqued my interest, so I determined from the length & direction of the shadow of the Washington monument in the pic on the left that the Sun was at approx. S 16 deg W - Azimuth, at an elevation of about 12 degrees. This corresponded to its position at about 5:30 PM on 10/4/97, date of the Promise Keepers.

Even if it were sunny yesterday, the shadow would have been a lot shorter at that azimuth (~ 5 PM) in DC.

Yes, I caught on to that too and thought I’d send his dissapointment to complete misery with our enthusiasm. Of course he’s dissapointed, because we are fired up!

You misunderstood. The real pics and video show it was larger than the other rally. Watch the time lapse video of yesterdays rally. This should clear up any disappointment you may have.

Some freeper’s daughter took a picture from a rooftop and she posted it on the Live thread on Friday. I’ll see if I can find it.

It’s good to see the left in such a panic.

Flag is at half mast in some of the photos. Were all flags in DC flown at half mast yesterday? Kennedy or 9/11 memorials? If so that's a sure fire way to authenticate photos from yesterday.

This is from post #692 in the Tea Party Live thread.

Just in, my daughter's rooftop mobile upload:

I apologize. I'm not trolling, and I am NOT disappointing at the turnout yesterday. What I should have made clear was that I was disapointed that our crowd wasn't quite as large as the one in the old photos. Our crowd was huge and it definitely gets the message across that the American people have had enough of this administration. Yes, that was my first post - I probably should have lurked more before posting. :) Carry on!

I can’t tell if it’s panic or childish “Our side has larger rallies than yours!”. The thing is, we rally for important stuff like freedom and the Constitution, they’d rally for a beer truck delivery, and we have more people that identify as conservatives.

Guess I should have looked more closely at the pics posted initially. It’s in there! Duh!

You’re right — the first photo is from Promise Keepers. DH went and we have a copy of it at home.

Dang, well where are they now? They should all be conservatives you think.
