I suppose it's possible to go from 85k to 400k in 24 hours but I suspect Mr. Andrews is full of [blank].

According to this thread, it appears the left employed it's usual tactic - get a few people to send out hundreds or even thousands of phone calls and faxes, then call it a grass roots protest. Not exactly what one would call a groundswell - unless you are the leftist press. Morons.

Hmmmm? It would seem they have the same problem with numbers again - just like the marches - they said it was roughly 400,000 - it turned out to be 65,000 (at the most).

These people are liars - and they just think there is no way to check - well I hate to tell them, but the WH keeps count of ALLLLLLL phone calls and emails. I can hardly wait for that to leak out.

Plus I loved the fact that 9 people got fired today for using company computers to send their emails in their virtual march. WhoooHooo! Employers are starting to fight back on misuse of their computer equipment.

Sure its possible to go from 85K to 400K in 24 hours. Its also possible that the same 25K are sending 8 emails out in 24 hours using different names.
