Citing quotes from various sources, Republicans today have introduced a measure declaring that Saturday's Tea Party protest in Washington, D. C., was the largest event ever hosted in the United States.

Evidence to support their claim is easily found on the internet and was presented before the official vote on the resolution.

"experienced one of the biggest demonstrations in history, when, according to the organizers, more than three million people flooded the streets of the historical city on Saturday"

"About 10 million pilgrims have gathered"

"It is a record...We believe it is the largest event held in Washington, D. C., ever."

"It continues to expand and is now the largest single object in the solar system"


 
wow! they are like men, their measurements keep growing as they try to bullshit you more.
 
well it was very big for conservatives. for too long conservatives have been silent and sometimes apathetic that's what the demoncwats count on apathy.. I think they are awake and caring now.. oh hell yes.
 
Ravi just wanted me to post up my favorite video :rofl:

100,000+ at the event is a good guesstimate [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoPud1TeubM]YouTube - 1.5 to 2 million march on Washington D.C Tea Party protest rally September 12 2009[/ame]
 
which is alittle different then 2 million. just be happy with what you got.

The reason tea parties are enjoying success, over half the country agrees with the parties core principles; deficit control and smaller government.

Dont forget to remind them what those core principles are ;).

We want smaller not bigger government
We want economic responsibility from our democrats and republicans, no more gigantic deficit spending
We want lower taxes for ALL Americans, from poor to rich
And we want to vote out all the corrupt democrats and republicans from office, which means kicking every single senator and congressperson out of office in 2010 from either side and replacing them with new Democrats and Republicans.
 
that is great but don't you think people will give them alittle more crediabilty if they are honest about their crowd size.
 
At the last minute scientists from NASA weighed in, basing their calculations on satellite imagery for the time period in question.

"[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]Another NASA Web site sagely puts the count at zillions, a word that does not represent a real figure but rather an "extremely large, indeterminate number." That presumes we'll never really know."[/FONT]

ok that was funny :rofl:
 
Estimates range from 75,000 to 2 million, you would think that in this age of technology that we could get a more accurate count. What's up with that.

There is a professor at the University of Illinois that is supposed to be an expert and knows how to measure the size of the crowd by photos but so far he has been silent.

When has the GOP ever told the truth since 2004?

See though this isn't about the GOP or the Dems, its about an out of control government.

DING DING DING.....we have a winner.

Watch what happens to the GOP people who try to use us to get re-elected, they will be sorely hurt come election day just like all the other corrupt a-holes in washington (I hope)

Yeah, right, that's gonna help. How about replacing them with Americans instead of the two most corrupt political parties in the history of our nation?
