“Up to two million people marched to the U.S. Capitol today, carrying signs with slogans such as “Obamacare makes me sick” as they protested the president’s health care plan and what they say is out-of-control spending.The line of protesters spread across Pennsylvania Avenue for blocks, all the way to the capitol, according to the Washington Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency.”

Has anyone seen any photos of the Mall area today after the patriots dispersed? My guess is that few of them left their trash lying around; unlike those at President Soetoro’s inauguration who laid waste to the whole area.

Headlines down play the number of people. Even Fox used Tens of thousands.

I have never seen that many people before. My guess is 1,500,000. Congress and the Senate better take note as the will be 2010 toast as the Tea party begins the revolution of 2010. Nancy and Harry take note!

The people will take back our country from the Socialist party you are forcing on America.

Wasn’t two million and the Washington Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency did not use that number. That was from a UK newspaper.

More like 200,000 to 300,000 which is a huge number. Be happy with it and don’t play into liberals’ gaame with a number they can easily refute.

No official agency in Washington makes estmates of crowd sizes.

The important thing isn’t whether there were 500,000 or 2,000,000 at the D. C. rally.

The important thing is that there are many times more than that who were not abler to make it to D. C.

We are many millions. Underestimate us at your own political peril, Future Former Speaker Pelosi.
