How deflating this must be to the egos of agitprops across this great land who parroted the party line as dispensed, via American Pravda from regime central planning, without even a cursory fact check.
After reading THIS (http://billiardsdigest.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=320760#Post320760) thread claiming that the recent Commiepalooza outdrew Beck's crowd in DC, we find the truth:
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Radio host/activist Joe Madison, after being introduced by Ed “Who?” Schultz at yesterday’s “One Unionized Nation” rally, said, “They sent in a satellite image of the crowd — somebody go tell Glenn Beck there are more people here right now than there was [sic] on the 29th!”
<span style='font-size: 11pt'>It was refreshing to hear a completely honest, non-inflated assessment of the crowd size.
I don’t doubt Mr. Madison’s claim for a second, because here’s how many people were in the Mall to see Glenn Beck on August 29th:</span>
<span style='font-size: 17pt'>That’s because Beck’s “Restoring Honor” gathering was on August 28th.</span>
Even if we compare apples to apples on the correct dates, the Associated Press isn’t even buying the “bigger than Beck” claims.
I can understand the confusion as to crowd size though — from a satellite photo, all those pieces of paper, socialist flyers and union placards littering the ground could be easily mistaken for people.
Here’s a “compare and contrast.”</div></div>
