Depends how big your sign is.
ETA: Speaking of which, I just realized who that guy’s sign was directed to.
That seems like a fairly reasonable analysis. The fact is we can’t know but I got a kick out of Michelle Bachman, described by Beck as a wonderful Christian woman, seems pretty disconnected from the truth when she described it as over a million.
It was interesting that after the non political rally, Bachman held a political one pleading with Tea Baggers not to throw all the good {GOP} incumbents out.
The proverbial man riding the tiger. “We’re going to ride this anti-incumbent wave, and hope nobody notices that we’re incumbents too.”
Sure, but looking at the size of all the Type-II folks on their hoverounds, square footage per capita is going to be a pretty serious concern.

And this is new or unusual, how? I’ve been complaining about Beck slipping away into religious la-la land for quite some time. I’ve pretty much stopped listening to him because it’s too damn much trouble to wade through the proselytizing bullshit.
Nah. Packed full of brains, which I use. As opposed to keeping my head firmly shoved up my ass as you apparently do.
I love it, Bo. I rub your face in facts and you deny them just to call me names. Carry on, my man. You’re operating in the finest tradition of the SDMB here.
Keep fuckin’ that chicken, Hump.
Facts? What facts? The facts from the paragraph where you started off – “So let’s do our own estimates” … followed up with the oh so factual sounding phrases – “The estimate that has always been used …” – and – “note that the open area to the left is packed with people” – and – “That open area holds another 150-200,000 people.”
Fuck’s sake you even threw in a link to the Freep for good measures.
Those are facts the same way that, “my johnson is 12 inches long” is a fact.
It is for me.
You make it sound like that’s unusual.
Pet ferrets named “Johnson” don’t count.
Someone I know who lives in the neighborhood reports there were a lot of people in T-shirts wandering the neighborhood afterward, buying Washington trinkets in the souvenir shops, taking all the seats at the fast-food places … IOW just a few more tourists than the average summer day in DC.
The best part of all this is, shit-for-brains, that you still think I dissed your numbers. I don’t fucking care about your numbers. You know why I don’t care about your numbers? Because your source for those numbers doesn’t exist.
Then you came back and tried to show me I was wrong by… wait for it… making up more numbers.
I don’t care about the numbers.
The point is that you (and your quoted blogger) just made a bunch of shit up and then tried to call it facts just like you just did in your last post.
You are so far gone, you don’t even know what you are arguing about with me, but you’re smug in your contention that you have somehow “won” something. You’re an idiot. How do you find your mouth with the food?
And if you look at the pictures and video from the Hungry Pregnant Demon website, you’ll see that it’s not “packed” as you want it to be, it’s actually pretty open with lots of open grass and wide walkways.
Go look at pictures of the Million Man March, or watch video of MLK, Jr. speaking there, and then you’ll see what a crowd of hundreds of thousands looks like.
I defer to your expertise.
Well to be honest, a crowd of 500,000 black people only counts as 300,000 white folk, so you can see how these good constitutionalists can make that kind of mistake.
Guess who wins the thread?

He’s still going straight to Hell, right ?

Now my coworkers are poking their heads into my office to ask if I’m okay, since I just barked out loud 
save me a seat on the bus to hell, please. window if possible.
