That’s pretty hilarious considering that I watched that stupid camera live for about three hours yesterday, and the link would be available to anyone.

NY Times tries to equate Obama's gathering in Minneapolis to Washington gathering...:

Thousands rally with or against Obama

*****************************EXCERPT*************************

As president leads a health care rally in Minneapolis, protesters in Washington denounce his policies.

THE NEW YORK TIMES
Sunday, September 13, 2009

WASHINGTON — As President Barack Obama flew to Minnesota on Saturday to rally support for his health care plan, a sea of protesters filled the west lawn of the Capitol and spilled onto the National Mall on Saturday in the largest rally against Obama since he took office, a culmination of a summer-long season of protests that began with opposition to the health care overhaul and grew into a broader dissatisfaction with government.

But in Minnesota, thousands of roaring supporters turned out Saturday to rally behind the president's call to overhaul the health care system, packing a Minneapolis basketball arena as Obama warned that nearly half of all Americans younger than 65 could lose their insurance at some point during the next decade.

The rally was the first in a series of events intended to whip up public support for a health overhaul. One of the biggest obstacles the president faces is winning support from middle-class workers who already have insurance, so he is stepping up his warnings that people could lose coverage at any time.

"It can happen to anyone," the president declared Saturday.

The images of 15,000 cheering Obama supporters provided a welcome visual counterpoint for the White House to the protest in Washington.
