If you believe 1 million turned up for Obama's presidential inauguration then you should also believe 2 million people at Washington, DC Tea Party 9 12 2009

I've helped organize a march on DC... I know plenty of people who were there and have given me a decent idea of attendance #s. Even Dick Armey has stated it was "up to a million" (IOW - less than a million). The pics I've seen indicate less than 1/2 a million. Maybe you have more conclusive side by side images to compare, but the pics I posted in the other thread show a much bigger crowd for O's big day... I'm not trying to rain on anyones parade, but wild exaggeration hurts our cause...

I was present for this rally and I would say there was at least a million of us.

How long did it take you to count that high?
