Think Progress: Political Rally or Not? We Report, You Decide.

(By the way, the 'AFP' on the t-shirts stands for Americans for Prosperity, the infamous Koch brothers* funded outfit. They even sponsored the travel of some the Glen Beck rally participants. *See Jane Mayer's current article in the New Yorker, 'Covert Operations.' http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/08/30/100830fa_fact_mayer Freedomworks, Dick Armey's outfit, was also well represented.)
