2. And why do you want thousands of aerial shots of your ass?
One or two would surely suffice...

12. You know, there are probably some Clarity fans around here...
...who'd pay good money for those. And we could donate the funds to Katrina relief.

:evilgrin:

32. A Park Service helicopter went over dozens of times. Can't see
why they couldn't release a photo. If they wanted to, that is.

7. Just wait awhile. I'm sure some DUers who are there will post
pictures later and will be able to give a better estimate of the crows than the news whores.

8. This web cam of the WH shows the protestors as it makes its rounds.
not a very good aerial shot, though.

27. looking at the traffic cam
the crowd looks to be at least 30 across. Each second or so a frame advances. Figure how many minutes a line of 30 people crossed the cams line of sight, you might have an educated guess. Anyone know how many minutes it took for the crowd to complete the march. Should this not be enough information to render an estimate.

10. I don't think they want people to understand the magnitude of these protests.
I can't understand why some private aircraft, outside the immediate airspace, can't take aerial shotts with hi-power telephoto lenses, though.

23. I believe it works both ways,
when Saddam's Statue was toppled, they wouldn't show aerial shots, so as to give the illusion of tens or hundreds of thousands of people attending instead of a few hundred shoe sellers going out of business.

21. Link to traffic cam at 3rd and Constitution
http://www.trafficland.com/findacamera/findacamera.php?city=WAS&maptype=flat&map=100#

No doubt Cheney will claim that these are the same people walking in front of that camera over and over again.

25. Truthfully, I am pissed off about this.
I think there are MASSIVE amounts of people there and this is WHY we aren't getting the coverage AND the shots that we had back in the march in NYC.

This is disturbing on the usual disturbing level of these pricks. Sorry, just REALLY angry about this.

29. what a difference a critical media takes.
remember reading of the Rome protest against bush's war in 2003. It was so huge,seems i recall newspaper accounts it could be seen by space satellites. Of course someone has aerial photos. They do it for no other reason than that of national security. They keep secret what they choose.
