” “12:34pm Eastern: Police estimate 1.2 million in attendance. ABC News reporting crowd at 2 million.” “

When I got up this morning, I had the thought that I was prepared to be impressed if there were as many as 100,000 in attendance...

Silly me.... ;)

Well your eyes should help. The pictures and the videos are everywhere.

We had 2200 at our favorite street corner tea party to celebrate the 9/12 rally. One of the biggest hootenannys around these parts.

Two million people who TRAVELED to DC isn’t a ‘fringe’ group.

I would love to be a fly on the wall in Pelosi and Obama meetings right now.

I wish I could be there, but my prayers have been with all the people there all day. I am proud to be an American... again.

By the way, as hopeless as I’ve felt over recent weeks, I feel a strength. A quiet resolve. This is AMERICA! We will not let them destroy us.

I am so so so proud of all Americans who marched on DC today. I hope there is another so I can get there next time. It was stunning to see the size of the crowd.

I am so disappointed that there was not ONE prominent conservative talk show host or reporter there. It baffles me. Where were Beck, Ingraham, Levin, Rush, Hannity, Tammy, Michelle,? ... I’m sorry but Beck’s program today was a let-down.

Did they think there wouldn’t be enough attention on them, or what? What’s up with that?

I don't like that fact that this number is just what the Dems expected in the memo. I think that the number will turn out too high and then guess what?

Media Spin: It wasn't as big as people first thought.

ABC News reporting crowd at 2 million.

We need links for these from an ABC source. No one is giving one that I can find. ABCnews.com currently says 60-70,000. That is obviously insanely low based on the pics.

They were probably invited....BUT, remember, if THEY had shown up, the press would say it was all because of THEM...not because of the outrage....so, really it’s fine they were not there.....NEXT TIME!

Our local rally was larger this time too. I am sure we will be ignored too. Who cares at this point. We need to bring more folks on board and the media will never be an asset to our cause. We need to get over it.
