Are there any news reports indicating how many people showed up at the "tea parties"? nt

1. Thanks for asking about this. Can we please compare it to the times that 100,000s of The People

showed up in Washington D.C. and in N.Y.C., if I remember correctly, something like 5 or 6 times, starting in 2002 through 2005, to express their closely heald belief that the Invasion and Occupation of Iraq was WRONG, and were all but COMPLETELY ignored by Corporate Media.

We're talking about 100-200 thousand of The People on something like 4 out of 6 events; those other two were a little smaller with something around only about 10K per.

4. Check Michelle Malkin's website

She is promoting these parties. Surely she will have a number posted. Take that number and reduce it by 90% and you might have some idea as to how many were there.

6. The "crowds" look a bit thin--Malkin's posted pix at her site:

Many pics are shot from the back of the crowds, but the crowds just ain't that deep.

7. One of our local bloggers reported 700 came

But I had driven by twice and took pictures. There were 100 at most. Sent my pics to the owner of the blog. He then changed his story and said they got 700 signatures on an online petition he had started.

And he never replied to my email.
