meh. ron paul has some nice points on his platform but his views on faith-based-initiatives and state-church relations are things i do not support

[PotheadPundit]

Agreed. It was just mainly on the really big issues I agreed with him. I think the only man I could actually vote for in good conscious would be a reanimated version of Bill Hicks ;)

[ajohn1511]

I completely agree.

lol Comments below are a great example of the ppl who where there.

'I wuz der d crowd wuz big, 1billion ppls!!1!' unfortunately dosn't prove anything (wat, u spent all day counting everyone?) to present an argument you need sum facts to back it up.

'That's wat you say' is not a valid argument.

FAIL

why no wide angle photo of the tea party rally? hell no picture of the rally at all. and then you propose to dispute the crowd size. talk about propaganda. however long live Ron Paul

@nightmathzombieethan As for Obama, I don't like everything he's done, and despite his best intentions I understand that he still has to "Play-ball" with some corporate interests, especially since THEY are the ones that actually run this country.

@hotfudgemoney You lost me... My statement was in regards to growing neoconservatism in this country, which seems to combine blind patriotism with an uninformed and reactionary/xenophobic public. This is encouraged by propaganda networks (1 in particular) masquerading as a "news source". This is very much akin to the beginnings of Nazism.

[hotfudgemoney]

@nightmathzombieethan With comments like that, I hope you don't support Obama, friend.

Wow, the kool aid is flowing in the comments on this video....

Anyways, number fudging is a minor transgression for these disingenuous assholes.

Quit bullshitting, democrats are closer to the socialism on the linear political spectrum than republicans, and socialism/communism is the party of the WORKER!

Communism was founded on the ideal that the workers, the proles, the peasants, rise up against their employers and revolt. Republicans... do not support the worker, Republicans are strict on labor unions, propose lower wages, and give tax breaks to the rich... How can you possibly say a Republican supports the worker.

I was in DC on 9/12/2009. DC police said this was the bigest crowd to ever come to the Capitol. You, little man, don't know SHIT. The WORKING people of America will stop this socialist take over and if you don't like it you can take your dumbass to Canada and when you have had enough of socialism we might let you come back. That is if you are ready to be part of the working class.

[FuckObamasMama]

Nice picture.

But were you there?

Denial is weak.

How about showing a wide angle video,and factor in the croud that overflowed down side streets because there was no room.

Instead you show a cropped photo.

Da doink!
