Here is a pic of the "tens of thousands"(*chortle*) of --------------(fill in the blank) who went to Washington today, as well as thousands more in cities around the nation. This would have never happened without your help. I have every confidence that you will continue your good work, because you have proven time and time again that you are too stupid and arrogant to ever know any better. With your continued efforts, we can grow this-----------(fill in the blank) to ever more historic proportions. Thank you, thank you...
Hey fisc, you'll soon come to realize that gussie mae lives on other people's misery. She is pathetic.

OMG! This is so funny... not because there are so many gullible unemployed who have nothing better to do with their time but because this is exactly the kind of demonstration that Gus use to mock those on the left for participating in. Gus, is that you I see standing on the side waving to the cameras? It's a long drive to DC glad to see you made it OK. Feel free to stop here on your way home for a cup of coffee.

Yep, I think it's great. Just plain folks don't like to be called names, one after another after another. Imagine the amount of frustration it finally took to get this many Bubbas and Bubettes off their butts and away from the TV for this much trouble. For 35 years, they have munched chips, and watched bad TV while the Left was doing this every other weekend. The bottom line? Obama and his Congress, butt-sniffed by the fawning MSM, and amplified at every opportunity by the moonbats, have *really* screwed-the-pooch to have caused this.
....a URL is posted for that particular picture, why would anyone believe that it's from today's 9/12 rally? I'm sure there are PLENTY of pictures of the Mall in DC with crowds. I was there for the 4th of July about 20 years ago....and it was even MORE crowded than that picture shows.

I got it from SondraK, who did not supply attribution. Huffpo has similar pics, and more are scattered everywhere. If that's all you've got, then I suggest you do what you do best, and go find somebody proving that it's a fake.
No janie because if you look real close you'll see a DATE on that picture and that DATE is 9/12/09......and it even gives the time when it wa taken. Sorry try again.
...at the picture again, (for the fourth time) evil-lyn, and I looked at it with a magnifying glass, too.....and there is NO "date" on the picture whatsoever. Why must you LIE so much of the time? Does the truth scare you THAT much?
PS to gus.....I think you KNOW what my point is, or you should if you have ANY functioning brain cells left.

Sure I do, it's *exactly* the same point that *created* that crowd in the first place. I just wanted to see if you were stupid enough to elaborate it in this thread.
Did you see the person holding the Worried Democrat sign in the second video? That was me, not literally, but in spirit. And, it's worrisome to me that you're more worried about the authenticity and origination of some picture rather than what's actually going on in our country.
First of all, I happened to watch some of the Fox News coverage of this rally yesterday morning, and I distinctly recall the reporter (a woman - I don't recall her name) saying the group did not have access to the Mall.
Second, this Fox News report about the rally says several things which contradict the idea that the above image is from yesterday's rally:
The tens of thousands of protesters marched to the U.S. Capitol chanting various slogans and waving posters that voiced a rather broad array of grievances against big government and the leaders, particularly President Obama, who the protesters blame for its size and scope.
So you see, your own preferred news source refers to "tens of thousands" - the phrase you ridiculed.
Second, the picture caption in that article states:
A crowd of people, some carrying signs, are shown during a rally at Freedom Plaza in Washington on Saturday, Sept. 12, 2009. (AP)
Freedom Plaza is at the White House end of Pennsylvania Avenue.
Third, after having marched to the U.S. Capitol:
The line of protesters clogged several blocks near the capitol, according to the D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency.
So, according to Fox News, there was a rally involving "tens of thousands" of protesters who rallied at Freedom Plaza, then marched to the capitol where they "clogged several blocks." None of that comports with the massive rally filling the entire Mall and almost a third of the Rotunda which you posted.

Heh ... now I know you've been had, Gus. Compare your picture to the one labelled "The Promise Keepers 1997" at this site:
Is that it? Is that all you've got? Are the nutroots going to grasp this like a relay baton and run with it? Read my answer to stupid's question. I think it was the DC park police who estimated the crowd at 60K. Of course, others in support say a million-plus, moonbats in their fury will try to sell the idea of a few dozen.
The point has been made by other posters that the Right just didn't do this sort of thing. That's correct, it has been rare. *That* is the point to be taken from this. All this furious denial in the form of ugly names, false motives and origins, and general juvenile insults in a serial pattern from the Left, has *given birth* to this! And it's not going anywhere! Look at the Wilson/Miller money race after the "lie" comment. They are running neck and neck, and that would have been unheard of six months ago! Why do you think I'm so appreciative of the moonbat's doing what they do best, and *continuing* to feed this brushfire? Go for it! Dispute the pictures, dispute the crowd, make jokes, denigrate, and insult. The next "demonstration" may be at the ballot box in 2010.

If the best you can do is 60,000 or even 10 x that amount, good luck with that. I think you noisy bunch of what-evers end up doing a lot of nothing, beating your chests and then coughing from having done so, and then a bunch of nasty emails spread amongst yourselves to keep you shouting at your computers.

Yes Gus, "all I've got" is the identical photograph taken in 1997, same shadows, same exact placement of all the people, same absence of a major museum building which was completed in 1998.
But feel free to keep believing what you posted was a picture of yesterday's rally. It fits right in with the rest of your relationship with reality.
EDIT Had to comment on this ...

Do you have any idea at all how much Wilson out-raised Miller in the last cycle? Any idea at all? Sure, running neck-and-neck would have been unheard of six months ago - but in the opposite direction from what you apparently think.

Whatever enables you to dismiss it is fine with me. Go ahead and ignore the fact that Obama would have had his Obamacare bill passed before the fall recess while you're at it.

All I Have said in that light is that my source did not provide attribution, and that I agreed with stupid that the pic could have been from any rally. How does than define me as believing that that was a picture of yesterday's rally? Clearly you have apparently provided proof enough that it is not. Stop projecting, I am *not* one of your climate-cult devotees.

You miss the point entirely. Six months ago, the nutroots would have raised their money in the wake of their targeting of the "lie" comment virtually unopposed. Their *was* no counterpart on the Right! What that means is that in the space of time since the original "teabaggers", the moonbats have grown this on the Right to the point that it can now compete head-to-head with the long established, well-funded, and highly organized nutroots! Once again, thank you!
I think it's time for gus to admit to having posted a false photo, or maybe even apologize.
LOL... Stop salivating, or get a bib.*chortle* I didn't even defend the photo last night, agreeing with stupid's suspicions. And now that Jan has posted an identical photo from another rally, clearly that's the case. The URL where I got the photo made no claim, nor did they provide any attribution. I assume that this is why. Anything else?

Gee, I don't know Gus ... maybe it was the part where you wrote: "Here is a pic of the "tens of thousands"(*chortle*) of --------------(fill in the blank) who went to Washington today" ...
Based on the traffic cam pictures of the actual rally and my rich experience with football crowds, I'd put the size of the rally at somewhere around 50,000 to 60,000. Apparently, the public safety officials in Washington agree. And coincidentally, that's "tens of thousands" - a characterization that you found chortle-worthy.
That's not a bad sized crowd, but I find it interesting that people have felt the need to lie about it being a million or more, and to post phony photos in support of that lie.

What?? Six months ago there was no hard-core right wing base? Have you already forgotten the dead-ender 27% who maintianed their support of Bush/Cheney to the bitter end?

The noisy bunch had nothing to do with Obama getting the Congress to pass health care legislation, it is, in my opinion and for the most part, those legislators with their hands in the lobbyists pockets trying to derail anything happening.

No, six months ago there was no co-ordinated network of intenet "machinery" that could have dreamed of raising such a sum, at such a rate. To do so was *now* simply a function of the Right's new "netroots" of it's own, growing like weeds in response to the serialized demonizations from the Left and it's media.
...more like tens of thousands than "millions" to me, carolyn. Also, there are PLENTY of people in those crowds who look like they are already receiving GOVERNMENT health care in the form of Medicare. That merely proves what dolts they are.
