Two thousand freeper types swore to show up for the "Fire Letterman" rally.

As it turned out the dozen or so who actually showed up were outnumbered by the media three to one. It was hilarious.

So I hope the DC Police has enough manpower available to handle all the reporters and photogs who show up tomorrow.

1. I live in the DC area and the local NPR affiliate was claiming that 400,000-1,000,000 teabaggers

would arrive. How laughable. Not even in Dick Armey's wildest dreams. :rofl:

2. npr.......more shill every day...nt

3. You all be standing out there with cameras, you hear?

We wouldn't want to miss a second of this great event.

[realisticphish]

4. This seems to be a trend

:D

5. Doesn't matter if 10,000,000 show up.

Barack Obama is still the president. DC businesses will get a weekend boost. That's about the only thing that will come out of it.

6. It wasn't a dozen. It was fifteen. That's 25% more than what you stated. Why are you purposely

under-representing the number - is it to make them look like the complete idiots that they are?

*snort*
:rofl:

Sorry, just messing with you.

[question everything]

7. Why do they want to fire him? (nt)

13. Must you question everything?

Oh ... Never mind.

8. "OH MY GOD, GET THEM AWAY FROM ME"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Won't these morons just fucking DIE?!!!!!!!!!!

9. Seems easy enough to check.

Are the hotels in the DC area filling up? Do buses from Georgia line the streets? Are the all-you-can-eat buffets and the Early Bird Specials overflowing? Are the office supply stores running out of magic markers and posterboard? If there are a million of them, they gotta be somewhere already.

10. At their peril. Letterman will get a world of fun out of it. nt

11. I'm Surprised the Headline

Didn't say 2,000 showed up anyway. When we have rallies the numbers are always deflated, so I expect the number for them will automatically be inflated.

12. At least the Porta-Potties didn't outnumber them this time. nt

14. Cool, but it happened back in June.

;)

15. I had a nap today.

Why are we protesting David Letterman again?
