135 Million People Attended Teabagger Rally in D.C. today:
Edited on Sat Sep-12-09 03:42 PM by PCIntern
In the largest gathering of humankind since history has been recorded, an estimated 135 million individuals attended the Conservative-minded March on Washington otherwise known as 9/12. "We sure as Hell put those Muslims who attend the Hajj to shame." Said Buck Diktus, a self-proclaimed rancher and cattle-farmer from Butte, Montana.

Despite photographs which indicate that only 40,000 to 60,000 individuals at most attended, Conservative adviser and self-proclaimed photographic expert Ron Christie (pictured below)




stated that..."there were so many right-minded people in attendance that the digital images ran out of available pixels. this is an issue we Republicans have long-warned the Cable News Channels about, but to no avail since they are controlled by the Radical Left."

There were many vendors present at the rally; the busiest was the concession selling a brown shirt which was available in all sizes. Also doing a brisk business were the booksellers, a new book upon the scene entitled "My Struggle" was selling out. According to organizers, this tome was published posthumously - the author having mysteriously died in a great fire in 1945, although there were some reports of his living under an assumed identity in Brazil or Argentina.

Plans for a second march entitled "Night of the Crystal" were announced.

3. Bwahahaha....

I attended the Second March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights where there were 500,000 participants. CNN barely covered it and made it look like there were only a few hundred marching.

10. I'm so embarrassed now.
I lied. And everyone knows. Was I even there? Maybe not. Those six people may have been all in my deluded, but pretty little head. {{hangs head in shame}} :rofl:

17. Perpetual motion machine for morans...
it's like Fox News and Fox programming...the latter undermines the RW societal values (Family Guy, American Dad, The Simpsons, House) and the former vilifies that undermining...
