This is nothing compared to the 2005 protest to bring back the McRib Sandwich.

If true, really amazing.

Where do you find those live satellite images?

I read an article about the protest and sounded like basically the typical repugs...."""don't mind spending trillions in another country slaughtering people at a wonderful rate but having healthy Americans who don't go broke paying their medical bills is way too much spending. And if Americans don't go into bankruptcy from medical bills they won't lose their homes and we WANT them to lose their homes because that drives the housing market down and grinds the average American into the dirt and helps ruin the economy and we WANT that, too!"""


Then they wipe the drool from their chins and carry on.....

C-Span streaming coverage:

C-SPAN Live Stream - C-SPAN (http://cspan.org/Watch/C-SPAN_wm.aspx - broken link)

If it is truly over a million or perhaps two according to ABC, good job America

never mind, i found it, michelle malkin.

i'd hold your glee until it's been verifiably reported. at the moment it just seems to be flying around the blogs, based 3rd hand on things supposedly said on tv.

not saying the number isn't right, it just hasn't been reported by a reliable source yet. no, michelle malkin saying abc said it isn't a reliable source.
