Big Fail. Overhead Photo Shows Embarrassingly Small Turnout at One Nation Rally
Gateway pundit ^ | October 3, 2010 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/03/2010 12:23:19 PM PDT by opentalk

The wacky dishonest left wants you to believe that their crowd yesterday matched the Glenn Beck rally last month.

Well, here’s an overhead shot from yesterday’s astroturfed One Nation rally posted at the left-wing Huffington Post

And, here is a crowd shot from Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor rally in late August.

So who are you going to believe? The leftist media or your lying eyes?

I saw a couple of photos yesterday that showed that some of these morons used the free trip to D.C. as an opportunity to visit the National Air & Space museum instead of standing around in the sun listening to a bunch of commies pass gas. I don’t blame them. LOL!!!

Today’s Sac Bee, another left wing communist rag, didn’t even have a story on the rally. I guess they didn’t think they could spin it enough. I don’t buy the bee but saw one lying on the counter at the store and read the front page. Nothing there, could have had a story buried in the middle somewhere:).

Must have been the weather. Can’t you see it raining in the picture. Yea, that was it. Rain.

There were lions prowling around the Mall.

Hungry, man-eating lions.

Odd how the MSM doesn’t do these types of comparison shots

Oh, I'm sure they do them; they just don't show them unless the size favors their agenda.

What disturbs me is that "crowd scenes" on digital media, from a distance, could be easily photoshopped.

Is there a comparison of the number of porta-potties deployed for both events?

That would create erroneous numbers for comparison since more from the left would chose not to use them when needed than those from the right.

I don’t believe the MSM will ‘fake’ the shots - they just won’t ‘show’ the whole truth.

Just wait until the media “mistakenly” subs one photo for the other.

I saw a thread earlier that was stating C-SPAN has already done just that.

Pretty interesting, particularly if you consider that they would not allow busses into DC for the 8/28 rally, but had union-bought busses in town for this one. So despite Pelosi’s best attempt to silence dissent, it’s obvious that there is a lot more fire in the bellies of conservatives than there is among the commies.

I would like to know the time the photo was for the ‘O nation rally’. Was it taken at the supposed peak — if there was a peak?

Where are the people? I mainly see grass!!

Aren’t there nearly as many people on the Mall on a normal Saturday afternoon, when the tourists come?

And I’ll bet that there was much more trash left on the Mall by this minuscule group of liberals than by that gigantic crowd at the Glenn Beck rally.
