If this were a weekend, the numbers might be a lot different.
Most conservatives and TP are responsible citizens, have families, and have jobs to perform on Wednesday afternoons. They are sacrificing their time out of principle to be in DC, knowing full well they will be harassed and ID'd by Himmler Inc. OTOH, most liberals are paid mercenaries and happily unemployed, anarchists, and slobs.
If this were 'Occupy WH,' protesters would be paid, bussed in to DC, and rowdy -- subversive speakers would be extolling the virtues and totalitarian regime of Barry Jong-Il...and the Capitol Gestapo would be rolling out the Red Carpet.
Good point. TPP.org should’ve picked another day.
Now that you say that, I’m noticing a lot of senior citizens - who might be retired and free on a Wednesday.
