Craig links the Frisco Chronicle story in the number at Saturday’s Anti-Bush rally:
CraigSchamp.org: Counting Leftists
The crowd measured 65,000 malcontents, not 200,000, as reported earlier. Not everyone’s happy with the facts, though.
65,000 people represents a whopping one percent of the 6.5 million living in the Frisco Bay Area. Granted that this part of the country is most likely the hottest hotbed of opposition to the Bush Administration, what does it say that only 1 percent feel strongly enough to come to a warm-weather protest? Not much.
Protesters are demanding a recount, of course, on the basis that many of them are named “Chad”, and they should have been counted multiple times. Al Gore agrees, and has instructed lawyers to prepare motions overturning laws of physics.
