9/12 Oranizers "A crowd of 50 thousand in DC is a success"
They are blaming the dems for the high expectations for crowd numbers, and are saying that if you get 50 thousand to a protest in DC, then its been a success.

We say, "Even though it looked like 1,000,000 in reality it was only 3 buddies who wandered onto the National Mall while playing frisbee, and Jim Inhofe."

7. I doubt they will
but we could start by voting Joe Wilson out of office.

THough however many do turn out Faux Noose will inflate the number by a factor of 10.

10. According to Junior, millions of anti-war demonstrators were a "focus group".
So, I would hardly call 50,000 a "success".

13. 50 thousand? I thought they were the majority of America? The sleeping giant that's awakened?

Apparently - America is tiny. Very tiny. Like Wyoming but with less scenery and square footage.
