Massive Obama-Backed “One Nation” Rally...

[thereisnospoon]

On 30 days of promotion, without the help of FreedomWorks and the Koch Brothers, and without a big name politician headliner, One Nation had just as many people as Beckpalooza. Don't believe the pictures being posted by conservatives online.. They were taken early in the rally.. A 5 hour event, and they compared it to one taken late in the day at Beck's.

Enthusiasm gap? What enthusiasm gap?

And when you have an event like "One Nation", you try to include everyone.. It was, after all, a rally about jobs. Conservatives, progressives, moderates.. They were all invited. Who gives a shit if a small band of "communist" partiers showed up.. It was about jobs. Not about party affiliation.

About the trash: When you have over 100,000 people in the mall, your gonna have trash. Period. Restoring Honor had trash too. And at least at One Nation, people tried to find trash cans, but they were mostly full, due to so many showing up.

The people that showed up were teachers, firefighters, police, janitors, and every other worker in America. This was about America.. Keeping it on the right track

Not even close. The photos of Beck's rally showed very little exposed turf areas because they were covered with people.
The Comie rally.( oh and there were serveral radical left wing and anachrist groups reperesented, hade acres of exposed turf areas because they were NOT covered by people..
Oh and how would you like to address the incredible mess these people left? Placards, papers all kinds of trash everywhere..
Also please addrsss the issue of the free transportation, food and lodging of attendees..
If your side was so popular, why is it that attendees have to be bribed to go to the rally?...

 

[Intense]

At last count....over 1.2 million are crowding the Mall

Largest turnout in 16 years!

How did you manage to get out of your Special Ed class to post here? You show good imagination, keep on keeping on.

That paid turn out was pretty pathetic.

I feel this song coming on...

It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life

He of course has absolutely NOTHING to back up the wildly exaggerated claim.

1.2 Million MY ASS. If one Nation was 1.2 Million then 8/28 was freaking 4 Million lol

1.2 million pieces of trash left behind maybe.

I think they were counting the people at home watching on tv.

Could be, there never is anything good to watch on Dish.

That still seems high.

I think they are counting the American people that knew there was some kind of rally that day.

I think the libs are waiting for those 2 pictures to be buried again to start up with their lies again

Why they can not understand. In a country where twice as many people say they are conservative as liberal. That An extremely far left gathering would not pull as many people as a moderately right one. Is beyond me.

Ed Schultz: Our rally drew the same number of people as Beck’s rally Hot Air

...
To fully appreciate how pathetic this self-affirmation is, take a look at the AP photo he shows in the clip. (link at, err, my link) It’s shot from the Lincoln Memorial and captures the crowd between the tree lines. Never mind that it’s an open question as to how many people were there because their union or school forced them to go, and never mind that people in attendance were quoted at the scene as saying how disappointing the turnout was. What’s wrong with the AP photo? Quite simply, by putting the crowd gathered around the podium in the foreground, it makes it hard to see how far back and how far off to the sides the throng extends. For that, you need an overhead view — and as Gateway Pundit shows, there’s simply no comparison. Nick Gillespie, who attended both events, guesstimates that “One Nation” drew somewhere between one-third and one-half what Beck’s rally drew. Why anyone cares what the numbers were, I’m not sure; it’s only logical that in a year when conservative enthusiasm far exceeds liberal enthusiasm, a right-wing rally will outdraw a left-wing one. (And even so, I expect a much bigger crowd than “One Nation” for the Stewart/Colbert rally.)
...

That's true, Stewart/Colby could outdraw them both for all I know.

BTW Ed Schultz video available at link as well.

US apologizes for infecting Guatemalans with STDs in the 1940s - CNN

ya, go Democrats, great people, really nice people. NOT!

 

[saveliberty]

So...the rally was really about Guatemalans with STDs from the 1940s. No wonder turnout was so light. Hey guys, Sailor got this one all fixed up for us. WTF?

You really need to do some research before you lie. N.Y. Times has an article that says the one nation people started planing this event in April The people that showed up were communist members socialist members union thugs Unemployed.

Who gives a shit is some communist show up? You sound like those people came on their own. NEWS FLASH they were one of the sponsors of the event. You have no idea what it is you are supporting.

 

[Synthaholic]

Here's the issue right here - your attempt to de-legitimize your fellow Americans fails because you don't even know what they're rallying for.

We pretty much know they are rallying for socialism since all those socialist groups are sponsoring it and are there with signs proudly saying they are socialists, idiots. If you support the socialists, PLEASE LEAVE MY COUNTRY!!!!

Oh, so it's your Country now? Troll. Even the "socialists" who were there are just as "American" as you are.

True. Capitalism is not in the Constitution.

Didn't Guatemalans have The Clap before 1940?

By extention, limited government is going to exclude socialism. Capitalism was already established at the time the Constitution was signed. You lose.
