‘One Nation’ Claims ‘Satellite Image’ Proves 10/2 Rally Is Bigger Than ‘Restoring Honor’

Well I guess that settles it. They already have the satellite images and all. The AP must be wrong about the “sparse” crowds. Even MSNBC was saying today’s rally was smaller than the one on 8/28. Joe Madison was happy to set everyone straight:
Now, did you catch the one possible point of wiggle room with the claim? Mediaite did:
Maybe Ed Schultz was right about being able to attract more people than Glenn Beck: organizers of today’s “One Nation Together Rally” are claiming that, based on a “satellite image,” there are definitively more people on the Washington Mall today than there were on the 29th of August. Congratulations, liberals! Except “Restoring Honor” was on the 28th…it is a near certainty that there are more people congregated on the Mall today than there were on August 29th, given that there was no event scheduled to occur in the Mall on that date.

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 4:31pmTheir goal is to put out a “story” for history books of future. It’s why they REPEATEDLY SAY the same things that are insane. Why you’ve heard so little white house reference to 8-28. What can be “googled” or in print 20 years from now. It was very important to out do Restoring Honor rally. I don‘t think they’ve got it, but if they’d pan the pond…they could proove me wrong maybe.

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 4:30pmI am excited for Glenn to juxtapose the messages and participants of the Restoring Honor rally and the One Nation rally. Choose America. The choice is a bit more obvious, in my view, than it was yesterday. God bless America and those who seek to uphold the Constitution and the principles and values of faith, hope, and charity.

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 5:02pmThank you for the URL RTIST. I was simply staggered by this theft. Anyone with an ounce of sense, however, could tell by the pictorial display that the 8/28 group was one of graciousness and common purpose. It just appeared like a peaceful gathering——today’s event ? well, just a little chaotic, almost frenetic activity–maybe my impression was swayed by the incongruent posters and signage—or the wide variety of union colors.

All the rest whined about opression, lack of opportunity, lousy schools, too many rich people, inadequate housing and every other kind of perceived injustice. And, the message was that to conquer all these ill all we need is more government intervention and taxes to solve the problems.

It’s reminds me of “The Administration” coming out and “reminding ” everyone that Obama cut our taxes. Never mind those pesty fees, tarriffs, cap and trade dynamics, etc. The government is definitely going to take more of your money but he promised a tax cut and a tax cut (stimulus check) he did produce.

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 8:27pmDon’t worry – many shots will come out of both groups eventually – satelite, from the stages, from the lawns and from the other end of the pool. There is absolutely no way this rally was a fraction of Glenn Becks – and at that point these libs will look exactly like the lying liars that they are.
The crowd was way thinned out. In the beggining it varely went halfway the length of the reflecting pool. Then they obviously told them to spread out because then the crowd reached the end, but with only a few people every 10 feet. They are were loud and disinterested. This was not a rally, it was a military parade like in the waning days of the Soviets – fake hardware, mandatory attendance, absolutely no inspiration.
This charade by the left is becoming a recurring joke. Like the wolf in Grandma’s bed – every day we see “what big eyes, what a big nose, what a big mouth and what big teeth” they have. The whole charade is getting so heavy they can’t keep it up any more. I feel it collapsing all ready!

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 10:13pmI LOVE the Trash photos!!!! This is the difference in a nutshell. 8/28 was about restoring the best of what people have inside them. Respect is high on the list, we have respect for the mall for it belongs to we the people. There is no respect on the other side. Mandatory attendance, possibly paid,extensive hate speech,lies and oh yeah….a big mess. 10/2 glad its over. 11/2 CAN’T WAIT!!!

Posted on October 2, 2010 at 10:16pmI was there today in the crowd I was also at THE RESTORING HONOR rally The Glen Beck rally was larger. Glen Beck was all about honoring our troops, values honesty. There was nothing political about Glen Becks rally. This rally today was all about politics and hate for anyone conservative.The ride down was free for you and as many guests as you wanted to bring. A lot of folks brought their children. Glen Beck”s rally I paid my way down on the bus . The crowd at Glen Beck”s rally were a peaceful crowd. There was nothing hateful said about anyone. Today I was really afraid of this crowd and very glad that no one knew that I too am an Ultra Conservative just like Glen Beck and very proud of it.

views“It’s now official, folks. According to D.C. Metro and the National Park Service’s examination of the satellite images at the peak @ 2pm, EST, the One Nation rally drew nearly DOUBLE the amount of people that Beck’s little Whitestock did.
Preliminary satellite estimates put the crowd size of Saturday’s “One Nation” rally at between 175,000 to 200,000 at about 2pm EST.
Which means that the One Nation rally, conservatively, drew between 50,000 and 75,000 more people than Beck’s, which the D.C. Metro and satellite images – the exact same methodology – put at 87,000 to 100,000.
Our rally? 175,000-200,000.
Sorry, Wrong Wingers. Did you like your cute little corporate-sponsored Beck infomercial? Because we actually got Americans to come on their own – and DOUBLED your size.
And the GOP leadership, in the NY Times today, announced that they’re no longer predicting a takeover of the House, as they only have HALF of the 39 seats they’d need sewn up with just 4 weeks to go – and that they can’t mathematically take over the Senate now.
House and Senate will stay in Democratic hands.
Ooooooh, how does the crow taste, wingnuts?”

Posted on October 3, 2010 at 9:59amGET REAL. There were more people yesterday, and denying it is useless! Yes, progressives, liberals, hard working union members and many more Americans who love their country just as much as you, did make a major statement on Saturday. Beck was wrong, outsmarted, out organized and just doing anything he can to desperately push his ratings ahead of O’Reilly and Rush.

Posted on October 3, 2010 at 10:24amI think the line from one of the media outlets after the 8/28 rally is more fitting after this gathering…“ There are more tourist trolling thru the national mall on a regular saturday then there were for this rally” hehehe careful what you say media. WOULD YOU LIKE SOME KOOLAID WITH THAT FOOT YOU ARE PUTTING IN YOUR MOUTH?

Posted on October 3, 2010 at 10:57amDue to a business trip I had the opportunity to be on the mall 10/2. For comparisons sake, I attended 8/28. I can absolutely state that the numbers did not compare at all. I was able to walk upstream with no problem and in fact was able to crossover and take photos. On 8/28 we were like sardines and could hardly move. The Metro was NOT packed either coming or going yesterday. The signs yesterday were quite interesting. Defintely socialist, communist and even one that said “Glen Beck is a gold salesman”. Made me chuckle. I am certain that there were other conservatives like myself as I took a shot of one guy carring a sign “one nation under God Faith Hope & Charity”. I stopped him to see if he had been harrassed and he said no. We wished one another luck and moved on. The crowds were patchy, little to none on either side of the trees and many people were sitting and talking in small groups, not paying attention to the speakers. We stayed for about 1.5 hrs and just couldn’t take anymore. We (my husband and I) went to the Washington Monument and took a shot toward the Lincoln Memorial. I think the ariel photo was taken early but at 1:30 pm, about 1.5 hrs into the rally, they were no where close to the crowd of 8/28. It was certainly a crowd of union people who were bussed in for this event, the majority of them SEIU, UAW, CWA and NEA. Very few people attended that did not have a union shirt of some kind. It was an interesting adventure to the “other side”.

Posted on October 3, 2010 at 2:57pmTypical public school educated guy taking the word of another public school educated guy. If I looked at the crowd with a magnifying glass from outer space, I still could have seen the difference. Those people are such a joke. I watched that whole sham yesterday and couldn’t stop laughing. I can’t make up my mind if they really believe that whole bunch of crap or are just pretending they believe it.

Posted on October 4, 2010 at 10:36amWell I must say that Joe Madison is absolutely correct. As Joe Madison stated “….bigger than Glenn Beck’s rally on the 29th!” We were not there on the 29th, of course there would be more people on 10-02-10 than on August 28th. What dopes they are!!

Posted on October 4, 2010 at 10:51amWe were not there on 8/29 but we were on 8/28 and Three ways they could count the crowd. 1. Number of buses at the stadium. 2. Volume of people on the trains. 3. Hotel room booked.
Report Post »But I‘m sure they won’t do that. But I remember how hard it was to get a bus and to get a Hotel close was even harder. We were going to get a hotel and ride our bikes in but that was impossible! It’s ok because we/you all know the truth and the truth will set you free!

Posted on October 4, 2010 at 6:52pmI‘ve been thinking this one over and still can’t decide if misstating the date was a deliberate tactic to convey a false impression without having to tell an outright lie.
OK, I’ve decided. Those on the left are way smarter than the rest if us. Just ask them and they’ll let you know. I, therefore, conclude that this could not have been a mistake because liberals never make mistakes. Again, don’t take my word for it. Just ask them.
Misleading and lying are both so popular with, and regarded as different acts by progressives, liberals and socialists. Never forget that the lefties don’t regard misleading as a form of lying.
