Using Farrakhan math that should be about 18 million in DC great job. Around 500 at our small town tea party today in the rain.

double ditto to that!

We had a great tea party here in Effingham, IL. Filled up the town square around our historic court house. Lots of enthusiasm for everything conservatives stand for.

And what we’re not going to take anymore.

Whooo Hooo!

Turnout estimated by ABC News: 60,000 to 70,000.

Not 2 million.

Right now, only Malkin is still going with the 2 million figure. The NPS didn’t even have to break out extra porta-potties. It was big, but, sorry guys, it just doesn’t seem to have been 2 million big.

Here’s a YouTube video of time-lapse photgraphy of the march itself. Pretty cool:

The report I just read posted on abc’s web site says between 60,000 & 70,000. Now, I know the crowd was larger than that, but I doubt that it was 2 million & if they reported it earlier I would like to see it......just sayin’...

Regardless, it was an awesome sight to behold & I’m so proud of all those who made the trip.
