Faux president Obama is undoubtedly cowering in some corner at the moment sucking his thumb, clutching his security blanket and envisioning pitchforks in the hands of the millions seeing and hearing this gathering of patriots and believers.

I beg to differ. 0h0m0 is sitting on Reggie Love's lap, hugged, comforted and.......

Sorry about that. I was looking for a local estimate, hoping that it might be more accurate. Guess I’ll have to keep on looking.

OK, here's the first decent link I have seen regarding crowd estimates: http://www.examiner.com/conservative-in-national/crowd-estimates-early-reports-from-beck-s-restoring-honor-rally"Reporters on the ground, however, state that the claim of 500,000 attendees is grossly underestimated. A more accurate assessment of the crowd may well turn out to be between 500,000 and 1 million."

It’s Beck’s party and he can do as he wishes; but, I wish he could leave off the Lincoln and concentrate on the Founders.

"I give Glenn credit for arranging the feeds to the internet. Using FB is brilliant."

This is probably the biggest ratings C-Span has ever had!

I was kicking myself in the a&& hard for not getting that Captain on video, but I did have two witnesses, Lisa Mei Norton and Andrew Wilkow were standing there with me.

This Sept 12, I’ll get it on video and send it to Drudge/Breitbart and of course on here to show the media is lying about attendance.

The side profiles give it away, not so much from the front. Smart idea.

Agree, I think the fact he has to wear one says much about those who oppose him, those of us who support him, and just how much is truly at stake in this country at this very moment.

“I think I can safely call a Klan member or Black Panthers member a racist.”
***

And you would do that because you are prejudiced against them. Racism is a form of prejudice.

It’s a generalization, don’t forget the context of the post: the left has been accusing us and the rest of the right of being racists.

Boy, that sure didn't come out right. What I meant to say was the fact that he has to wear one says much about those who oppose him. (Should've stopped right there..)

So if someone out right said they hated someone or a people because of the color of their skin. I wouldn’t be able to call that racism?

What relationship do rail passes have with lack of physical capacity of the RSI system?

The problem wasn't the trains themselves. The backup was at the ticket machines. They aren't enough for a lot of people trying to buy tickets at the same time, And if you have never used one, it's a bit confusing the first time.

When I was working in the DC area, I helped a number of tourists that were trying to figure out what to buy and where to go. If they were going my direction, I took them along in tow.

One guy asked: you aren't from around here, are you? :-)
