I just got an email from the Tea Party Patriots. It says, “You – our supporters – made this happen with your donations and volunteer assistance. You all should be so proud! It was a fantastic event. Really incredible. Well over 10,000 people streamed in during the 2 1/2 hour event!!!”
They include this photograph:
Hey, I agree with some of the Tea Party’s beefs so don’t get me wrong, I’m not rabidly anti-Tea Party. But I have heard several news reports today stating that the crowd estimate was somewhere between 3,000 and 5,000. I think “well over 10,000″ might be, ah, a bit of a stretch.
Oh, and compare that to this shot of an Obama rally during the 2008 campaign:
Makes Boston look kinda pitiful, huh?
