9. Yeah -- SUCK ON IT!
They're like cornered bugs, freaking out because they're
outnumbered and doomed.

6. Great comparison photos
The teabaggers are totally pathetic. They would have been stampeded at the Inauguration.

11. Still annoying that media heavily promoted these events, then claim spontaneous uprising-esp when
bailout and tax policy more Bush, and funded by Armey & Co.

12. Notice how the protest shots are all tight shots
To give the idea that the crowd is more dense than it is. If you pulled back on those shots, you would see a lot of wide open spaces.

14. Exactly...
I have been waiting to see some arial shots when they go through the crowds I see a lot of wide open spaces the only place I have seen that seemed to have a lot of people was texas but I still didn't see any wide shot,no surprise about texas though.

21. There you have it!
Makes sense to me! A huge number of people elected Obama, and a tiny number of hate-filled, loud, and irate people hate that fact.

Funny how you never see a happy Republican/Conservative.

23. To make a fair comparison
we need a pullout photograph of the same size area ... maybe they don't exist cause the crowds were just too small to make it worth doing.

24. That's because repubs have to work for a living while we sit on our asses and collect welfare.
And for every person out teabagging it yesterday, there was a million more supporting the protest back at home.

It's true! I heard it on the radio! :eyes: :eyes:
