Tens and hundreds of dedicated liberal activists rallied in Washington D.C. on Sunday, 9/13 in support of the Democrats' Public Option for healthcare reform. The D.C. police and onsite conservative observers estimate the crowd size at a stunning 800 to 1000 people.
The huge turnout was due to the superior organizing skills of community organizations all across the United States. Dedicated individuals, sponsored by liberal organizations and enviromental lobbyists, were bussed in overnight to demand that Congress pass a public option as part of any meaningful healthcare bill in the House and Senate.
I know Julie Paulsen and others who worked very hard to get it organized but without "top down" assistance with logistics, or a high-profile leader, I think we're better off just knocking on doors and canvassing voters.
That's how we're gonna win anyway. We're already the majority. We just need to act like it.

And that's just sad.

LOL gonna need to see a time lapse to be sure.
Media claims 5 million showed up?
I see several million people there/MSM.
ROFLMAO
That’d be about right.
the word which springs to mind is deluded when it comes to these jokers.
They really think they are the majority
LOL
I’ll get right on that. :)
Ya know, I didn’t see too many shadows on the ground Saturday - there was no room for shadows on the ground.
they think they’re better off going door to door
I would love to see these deluded idiots come to my neighborhood.
Over 4.5 million, they backed off a little.
There is no protest here.. the protesters have not arrived in DC.
I wonder if they needed a helicopter to get an accurate count? Or...maybe they could just use their fingers!
Wow, that looks like a bunch of white, angry racists. I mean, except for that one picture that shows a black woman, the rest are all white. Doesn’t having a bunch of white people gathering together to protest something automatically mean they’re racist?
>
... of ones!
Unlike the 9/12 crowd, not many of those people seem to be smiling and laughing. They act like they are at work. Maybe they are.
A few of them may need to take off their shoes to count past 10.
Tens and hundreds = 220 but will be reported by the complicit media as ten to the hundreth power.
(Math question: What is 10 to the hundredth power? )
10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ,000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.
You wasted your time and money following the Tea Party express. The turnout at this rally was far more impressive. /s
Yeah, they’ll probably use base 2 to report the crowd size. 8(base 10) = 1000(base 2)
Wow, what a huge turnout — NOT.
Idiots on parade.
Funny, b/c the population of the D.C. metro area is just over 5 million...so based on the political demographics, one could say that 4.5 million pro-reformers were in the D.C. area yesterday.
isn’t that what a googleplex is?
It certainly was racist. They were very critical of Opossum not pushing the “public option”.
Critical of POTUS, protesting in the streets, signs, white people always = racism.
I’ve seen more people at a kids’ soccer game. Bet they got full police protection in D.C. though.
From Wiki
It’s not a “google”
It’s a googol, which is defined as 1 x 10100. In other words, it’s one followed by 100 zeros.
LOL, it’s sort of the moral equivalent of wearing a ‘kick me’ sign. They could have just as well carried signs reading ‘Please double my taxes!!’ or ‘We need more poverty NOW!’. It’s always amazing how little support such cosmically STUPID ideas really have.

800 to 1000 people.
There. Fixed it.
Obama czars take after lunch walk.
I’ve seen more people lined up outside a Ryan’s restaurant on Wednesday steak night.
That's because, despite what your Dear Leader and his buddy Axlerod lie and say, your side doesn't have the passion or the support of the American people. It's difficult to support what doesn't exist (remember, there's no plan yet), or to support lies (remember, the plan (that doesn't exist) doesn't say that), or to get excited about it when you see how it's going to negatively affect you personally (I could really lose my health insurance...or I'll have to pay for insurance...I thought it was going to be free...hey, I didn't vote for that...I voted for the free health care for everyone, me first)
I’m wondering when politicians and the libtard public are going to realize that the people they’ve demonized as racists and shills are REGISTERED VOTERS. When it comes to the voting booth, it won’t matter if the opposition to Obama was manufactured or grassroots-based. A vote against is a vote against any day of the week.
