Apparently Rush is reporting 30 people came out Saturday...
for the antiwar protests. Also apparently we were paid to go. This according to Randi...

I missed getting my paycheck. Anyone else get theirs?

C-SPAN is reporting the crowd size at five hundred thousand. I trust their numbers.

6. Isn't that incredible?
All his dittoheads will believe him sadly. I really wish there was some way to expose his credibility. I mean the guy is writing fiction all the time and his show should have that disclaimer stating that everything he says is fiction.

7. There were comparison photos last week (pre-DC-protest)
of a march that had a whopping 29-30 people. The photos, when cropped, could have stood for a crowd. Uncropped, the group had merely tightened their ranks for the photo. The article also said around 30 people.

NYC was it? When Cindy arrived in DC? Dunno. Rush might be picking up an older story and assuming it refers to two days ago; or Randi might be mixing up the reference and be assuming that Rush is referring to a protest he's not. In either event, someone's got some wires crossed, me thinks.

12. Rush didn't screw up.
He knows the truth. He's just a lying, coke-addicted asshat.

11. Wonder what the Dittoheads who were there "counter protesting"
Edited on Mon Sep-26-05 03:43 PM by deutsey
(all 60 of them) thought when they heard Rush say this and yet saw the tens of thousands of us as we marched by them?

Like Randi says, they probably won't believe their own eyes.

13. Maybe only 30 came from Peoria or Kalamazoo.
Or maybe he got confused because he'd just counted the number of Oxycontin he'd taken yesterday.

16. 30? Is that how many oxycontin tablets Rush took on Saturday?
After which he reports that only 30 people came out to protest the war?
