Are these people that dillusional or do they think the people who read/listen to them are? It’s really difficult for me to believe people are that stupid.

A strong stream of soapy water would do much the same thing to that crowd.

Steve Kornacki is a former sports writer for Booth Newspapers, his main beat was daily beat writer of the Detroit Tigers. He used to be in my daily paper on a regular basis.

Kornacki did a pretty decent job of being fair and balanced in the article.

Interesting that Chris Wallace did not use the 10/2/10 shot from the Washington Monument when he showed a “side-by-side” comparison [his words] of the two rallies today on his show.

Was he trying to fudge reality?

The shot taken from the perspective of the Lincoln Monument stage area was used instead for yesterday’s crowd, and the Washington Monument view for Beck’s rally.

75,000 to 175,000? I don’t think so Maybe 25,000 to 50,000 that is it tops! -----------------------------------

Hopefully the same numbers will show up for the rats on election day.

The 8/28 rally had vastly more attendance than that motley show of anti-Americanism.

I guess the boys from Salon really favor Obama-Reid-Pelosi policies no matter the damage they do.

&&&
Like the rest of the leftist, America-hating media, they welcome the damage, as the destruction of our nation cannot come too soon for them.

All of a sudden the size of the crowd doesn’t matter to the left. LOL

“...but whether the exact number of attendees was 75,000 or 175,000, it doesn’t really matter.”

It must not matter because I STILL don’t know exactly how many people actually attended.

What a clueless and inane article.

Yes, dopey, the outrage on the right has nothing to do with the fact that our government is taxing us into poverty, while they still run a $1.3 trillion annual deficit. People are actually upset because of the president's middle name!

I would be embarrassed to so completely misunderstand the interesting political times I live in.

This bunch managed to sign up some religious groups early in the process. At least one, the General Board of Church and Society (United Methodist Church) withdrew the day before the event, claiming the event had become politicized. (How they only figured that out by Friday is another story, but it may have been related to the feedback they got from pastors and laity.) For what it’s worth, no Board of the United Methodist Church and no bishop or pastor can speak for the denomination. The Board was way out of line and will pay the price in contributions.

Or holy water.
