Unlike the union paid pro-Obama crowd, they inconvenienced themselves to take time off work to protest. Up to two million march to US Capitol to protest against Obama's spending in 'tea-party' demonstration By Mail Foreign Service Last updated at 9:39 PM on 12th September 2009 Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/wor...ng-tea-party-demonstration.html#ixzz0R0VbaxRr I bet this will be plastered all over the news for the next two weeks this is bigger than any Bush protest and ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN covered every Bush protest where at least ten people gathered. 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. People were chanting "enough, enough" and "We the People." Others yelled "You lie, you lie!" and "Pelosi has to go," referring to California congresswoman Nancy Pelosi.

Remember the 1/2 million man march? Yes, the picture is real, nutroots By Michelle Malkin • September 12, 2009 10:51 PM I was offline for most of the afternoon and early evening — and just learned that the nutroots are claiming that the screenshot of the 9/12 march in D.C. that I posted — taken from a livecam of the event that I linked to here — is somehow “fake.†The claim is that the shot came from the Kennedy procession or a previous left-wing protest and that the flag at half-mast proves that it was “fake.†Newsflash for the clueless: Flags were still at half-mast earlier today in honor of the murder victims of the 9/11 jihadi attacks. Guess the 9/11-was-an-inside jobbers are still that much in denial. Unbelievable. Yes, this is real: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sjvc6baor8 (hat tip: Allahpundit) Shut your eyes at your own peril. *** More “fake†photos via El Marco: *** Let’s go back to the screenshot: Reader Rosemary e-mailed a link to USAToday’s National Mall/crowd estimate schematic, which it published in January to show how the Park Service estimated inaugural crowd attendance. It’s a helpful guide.
