I know an organizer of the protest here in Waco TX, we had 2, one in the morning and one in the evening, and combined there were between 2500-3000.....Waco has about 225K Metro population. Fox News reported the protest in Atlanta had over 15,000........so I guess in the OPS eyes there were only protest in Atlanta AND Waco.
He's simply delusional!
And to think, people like that voted in our last election....SCARY!

I wonder what you leftist obamacrat drones had to say when all of the hispanics were protesting against illegal immigration reform???? Key word there being "illegal"... I'm sure that was all fine and dandy as long as they were voting on your side...

How many billions of our tax dollars went to ACORN to encourage voter fraud yet we can't secure our borders???

Of course that voter fraud story can't be true since your liberal fan club media did not report it....

Actually McCain would have gone down the same path as Obama,difference being you would be howling with outrage if he had.

Go read some of Ron Paul's ideas to see what should be done...

As to the OP,news reports from Albuquerque put the number at 10,000.

Cavuto caught off-camera making up Tea Party attendance numbers - The Activity Pit

"Cavuto caught off-camera making up Tea Party attendance numbers. a clip of Cavuto talking to some guy off-camera saying there were "around 5000" people in the crowd. They they showed him on the air 9 minutes later saying, "They expected 5000, but it's got to be twice or three times as much as that!"

Yeah..I believe foxnews.

Of course not. Bush was borrowing in order to conduct illegal foreign wars, and to enrich the wealthy and the multinational corporations. Some of that ends up trickling down - but not much.

Obama is investing in our future. He's investing in education. He's investing in infrastructure. He's investing in energy. He's making it easier for us to be competitive in the future.

Your example is like comparing the borrowing of money in order to go to the track, versus borrowing money in order to pay for a college degree, or to start a new business.

There's good borrowing and bad borrrowing.

Why do you repeat this lie?
The truth is of course many many more ordinary Americans protested their government being out of control when it comes to spending....

and for some reason that frightens the left.
