Is there a satellite shot of the teabagger crowd?

That should allow an estimate of crowd size and a comparison to the crowd for the Inauguration.

1. Satellite images are socialism. Teabaggers don't need no stinking satellites.

Faux News estimates are good enough.

2. Good idea, but

I doubt anyone would be willing to waste a satellites time on such a pathetic crowd.

5. Are commercial satellites freely allowed to take images of DC?

I honestly don't know.

7. Oh sure

Biden even allowed Google to unblur the Naval Observatory.

10. I always loved that blurry image

when Cheney was squatting in that house, no doubt saying... Ahhh now I feel safe, nobody could target me because the image is all blurry, they could never look at the roads all around and figure out what's up on this hill.

11. I always assumed the blurriness reflected the bullshit cloud hovering over the place...

...rather than Google earth restrictions.

6. By the media?

I think it was called a couple of thousand anti-American troublemakers or something like that. They also only showed it just before commercial breaks.

8. Sat would be good

I'd be happy with just an ariel shot from a tall building. From what I've seen so far, it's like everyone clumped together, and no camera angle changes except a low shot and everybody pretending the crowd is huge.
