One Trillion Attend One Nation Rally

SNIP:
A crowd of about one trillion people attended the hard-left progressive One Nation rally on the Mall Saturday in Washington, D.C. Leave aside for a moment that there are around seven billion people inhabiting the entire planet, attendees came from as far away as Alpha Centauri and Uranus to attend the rally in support of Barack Obama and his big government agenda.
All of these people want free health care (they already got the free lunch and T-shirt when they were bused in).
In all seriousness, if you weren't watching MSNBC's kind coverage (their drop-in shots were few and far between due to low turnout), you'd find there were actually a few thousand people surrounding the Reflecting Pool at the Lincoln Memorial on the Mall, herded into and held in that limited area by pre-set fencing as seen here.

The One Nation rally had empty streets and by all reports parking spaces aplenty. As also shown in the fenced-in photo linked above, the side overflow areas lacked any crowds whatsoever. Photo after photo from Twitter throughout the day showed gaping holes in the "crowd" shots.
The One Nation event attendance was dwarfed in size by the Restoring Honor rally in August hosted by radio talk show and Fox News host Glenn Beck which boasted a crowd in the hundreds of thousands. Check out the footage from HUMAN EVENTS of the overflow fields and crowds here and compare.
A photo gallery of One Nation "crowd" shots is available here from the Washington Post.
Speaker after speaker at the event demanded more government giveaways and wealth re-distribution from their leaders. And gay rights. And amnesty. And free education throughout everyone's lifetime from cradle to great grandma getting her Ph.D.
Self-proclaimed Communist and former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones apologized for the crowd size saying more people would have attended but times are tough. "The earth is overheating, the earth is heating up," Jones proclaimed amid tirades about wind farms and recycling.
One "collegian" speaker called for a "re-spurring of community organizing." That's exactly what America needs -- more community organizers.
Al Sharpton stepped up to let folks know that "America is not one color, and not one gender."
Harry Belafonte, friend and supporter of Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez, showed up to call the Tea Parties "evil."
"We will not be divided and turned against one another," Jessie Jackson declared from the stage then went on to demand more race-based job opportunities.
Favorite signs included: "Tax the Rich, Socialist Party U.S.A." and "Jobs for Justice"
Best tweet of the day: @radishthegreat: If they put as much effort into working as they do demanding other peoples money, they could be the rich they hate
The event organizers included such noble American groups as the Communist Party U.S.A., Democratic Socialists of America and the International Socialist Organization.

This wasn't a rally, it was a conspiracy theory convention speech.
