One Nation Rally Attendance Vs. Glenn Beck Rally

On Saturday October, 2nd, the One Nation Rally took place in Washington D.C. at the National Mall. The rally was formed by democrats looking to rival the rally held by conservative Glenn Beck. There are no official One Nation Rally attendance numbers that have been released, and more than likely there won’t be any.

However, crowd estimates by a non-partisan satellite company said there was approximately 87,000 people in attendance at the event. The One Nation Rally organizers put the number closer to 200,000 but most people that were there probably would not agree with these totals.

The Glenn Beck Rally which was held on August 28th, by Beck’s estimates had close to 500,000 people in attendance. This number appears to obviously be inaccurate. However, from talking to people that were on hand at both rallies, the Glenn Beck Rally was a lot more crowded. We don’t even know for sure what the numbers were at either rally, and probably won’t ever find out. It is quite obvious that conservatives will say that Beck’s rally had a larger crowd, while liberals will more than likely side with the crowds at the One Nation Rally.

Does it really matter?

    The crowds at the Restoring Honor event were more like 600,000, and the commie left’s gathering brought forth dismal numbers, with a cast of freaks and anti-American communist pigs. And they TRASHED every area they left. Trash was strewn EVERYWHERE! The disgraced the WWll memorial with hoards of trash. They do NOT care about America. They care only about themselves and their selfish agenda, which is NOT in America’s interest.

    This is a biased website. Clearly the site owner leans towards the dumber teaparty movement and are thereby attempting to skew facts to make it look like the Beck Religious Revival was bigger.
    Truth is there were about as many people there that attend a Washington Redskin game on any given weekend. Same with the One Nation rally. Only difference is nobody knew what the One Nation rally was.

    The anti-Beck crowd rally will be at the end of the month of October when Stewart and Colbert hold their competing rally’s. That’s the one that’s well known to be the anti-teabaggery rally. Save your crowd counting for that one.

    More than size, strategy and timing matters. The One Nation rally has a strategy to close the deal in the 4th quarter. That strategy is to motivate the democratic voters to get out and vote in November. The One Nation rally went a long way in doing that. There were lots of youth there as well as labor. There were also local One Nation rallies happening in cities across the nation on that same day.

    I asked the Cops who worked both events. They told me there were more people at the One Nation rally than at Beck’s rally.

    The Beck rally was not a political rally…so comparing the two as if they were similar in content and worrying about how many people showed up is pretty childish… The left is just pissed that people are standing up to them and trying to get in the way of all the crap they are passing and trying to pass while they can.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_EKUIDUCJBPXVCC2CAQ5JJJNJK4 The Big Dog

    Attendance does matter. It shows desire and determination to the cause of the rally and Beck’s gathering was clearly attended by more people…by almost 400,000 people. Lastly, did anyone in the media pay attention to who was sponsoring the OneNation rally? Does anyone care who the Tides Foundation is? Answer: George Soros..mulit-billionaire that sponsors various socialist/marxist groups to challenge capitalism. If you look at the other sponsors you will read group names with Communism, Marxism and Socialism in them. The question I pose is American really that far to the left? I personally don’t think so and (God willing) November elections will hopefully prove that correct.

    The only way Beck could “restore honor” would be if he stopped pretending to be a Christian while wearing magic underpants. The dude is ruining the country by making dumb people dumber.

    One thing that’s not mentioned is that Becks’s rally didn’t include the steps and areas immediately surrounding the Lincoln Memorial. The entire Lincoln Memorial was packed and thee were no Becksters in that area during that rally. If you are just looking at lawn pics of the Reflecting Pool.

    Do you know the Koch brothers each worth $21billion finance the Tea Party? I’d bet you don’t know or care. The truth is these billionaires are afraid they might have to pay more in taxes. So they rally all the dumb people and convince them it’s the government, not greedy Wall St. tycoons that are the source of their problems. Seems like it worked on a patsy like you.

    Being reduced to name calling has kept this Nation ignorant. We all lose. The winners are the Plutocracy. And a bigger problem is that there is a mass of ignorant people that fight for the Plutocratic Elite. America is fucked. What will you do about it besides calling someone a commie or a Sign Misspelling Teabagger or a leftie or a rightie? We need the middle class to rise again..In the name of Democracy. Not Free Markets(Plutocratic Theory), or Conservative Christiology, or Corporate Thugary, Socialist Slipperies, but Democracy. That long lost idea. That one thing that IS(or was) this Nation. Democracy needs you. (I totally expect some name calling on this comment) <— and if so, the fail continues.

    The Restoring Honor rally and the One Nation Rally is like comparing an an angel and a prostitute. People who went to the Restoring Honor rally used no political signs, paid their own way, and picked up after themselves.

    This past weekend, the unions had to force them on buses, many in the group were illegal aliens, there were so many disjointed political signs it definitely was not one nation, the blacks wanted it all about them, and look at the piles of trash the pigs left behind. Yeah, you won’t see very many pictures because of biassed media.

    No, media and the unions and Obama will try to put lipstick on the dead hog, but it is still a dead stinking hog. All those on Saturday thought the mall was the new trough to get freebies from.

    Poor Tony, he can only spout sound bytes and talking points that someone else wrote. You show how little education you have and how much less you have read over your very short life.

    As to the person who espoused “I ased a policeman” . Oh yeah…that opening phrase is suppose to make us believe you unconditionally. Well D.F. Just look at pictures that Glenn Beck had and compare to what little the liberal medial is showing. And by the way…..ask yourself this, why are there so few true pictures. And ask yourself why didn’t the piggies pick up after themselves. Oh yeah union people…..they can’t pick up after themselves. They first have to hire people to pick up the mess. Then they have to hire people to move the containers out of the park. Then they have to hire the trucks and loaders to remove the trash and take it to union controlled sites. And they used union people to put the containers out the first place.

    And how many people did Glenn Beck’s group use to pick up trash? NADA? We don’t need no stinkin union or illegals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both are a drain on the economy.

    The New York Times article on the One Nation rally says that portions of the Mall that were filled for the Glenn Beck Restoring Honor rally were empty for the One Nation Rally.

    Comparing the Washington Post article about the One Nation rally to the Washington Post articles about, and aerial photo of, the Glenn Beck Restoring Honor rally, the crowd for the One Nation rally is said to have petered out along the sides of the reflecting pool while the crowd for the Glenn Beck Restoring Honor rally is said and shown to have extended all the way to the Washington Monument.

    In other words, both the New York Times and the Washington Post reported that the One Nation rally drew a smaller crowd than the Glenn beck Restoring Honor rally.

    Does this matter? Yes. The organizers of the One Nation rally sought to demonstrate that “they” (a conglomeration of liberal groups and interests) were the “real majority” in America. They failed. This was despite the fact that they supplied hundreds of buses to give their people people free transportation to the One Nation rally .

    Thus, Glenn Beck, with some help from Sarah Palin, whipped the entire AFL-CIO, SEIU, the Communist Party USA, various gay and lesbian groups, etc., etc. — in other words, Glenn Beck whipped organized American liberalism and the Democratic Party. Quite an accomplishment for an individual TV and radio broadcaster.

    Actually, the “One Nation Rally” is missing the “Under God” portion of the name. This shows that the One Nation Rally was INDEED made up of Liberals (most Far Left). Not Democrats, Liberals. Liberals make up less than 20% of the population and most are members of Socialist, Marxist or Communist groups. Also, the unions most likely made their members feel that it was mandatory to attend, consequently many did not want to be there.

    However, Beck’s was not a political group rally and attendees included Tea Party, Republican, Conservative, Independent and even Democrats. Obviously, that group more represents the “Majority” that shows up on all the polls showing opposition to the current Administration and Congress’ agenda.

    Beck scumporters are too stupid to actually understand that One Nation had approximately 87,000 attendees, and Beck had 70,000 supporters. Satellite images can be digitized and counted. Nothing like an American Hating scumbeck listener to not be smart enough to know that Satellites passed overhead and took pictures. Since your so pro Repubican, they should ship you overseas along with your jobs!!!

    How long? Just how much longer can the stupid left media distort the truth?
    Here is the truth, in case you missed it:
    1. The 8/28 rally had hundreds of thousands (you can argue whether 200K or 500K – not important) – vs the “one nation” rally which had barely tens of thousands (less than 50K for sure). All of this while trying to bring people who didn’t know why they were going on union paid buses and bribery.
    2. Considering (1), The amount of dirt the “one nation” left, claiming to CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT is a simple disgrace to the memorial. There were thousands of plastic bottles, cans, paper banners – all of which could have been recycled. And they dare to lead our way towards being more green? They are DESPICABLE.
    3. The Glenn Beck rally was a million times more respectful, moving and genuine than the clownish faked “one nation” rally – I don’t even know whether you can call it a rally.

    I call upon every American, young or old, rich or poor – DO NOT LET the media or the government brainwash you! Believe and cherish your freedoms to become whatever you want to be. All you need to do is believe in yourself and work hard for it. This is what has made us great. This is what has made America desirable to many people in this world.
    Go read the constitution, learn economics 101, use your common sense – and reach the obvious conclusion: Barack Obama is the WORST president this country has ever known. His agenda needs to be repealed, HE needs to be repealed. Not because of his color of skin. NO. It’s because what he is REALLY after. Not what he says, but what he DOES. DO NOT BE FOOLED. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!

    Size does matter, when you look at the garbage that each rally left. Tells which group has more respect for this national treasures. One group as a guess at our national mall treated it as the treasure it is the other disrespect our national mall. One question to all which group would you prefer your children to be more like?

    Just look at the pictures of the rally’s on Huffington Post and The Blaze both put the best pictures of the rally from the Washington monument. There is no comparing the the two Becks was alot bigger, why do you think most pictures released are those in crowd shots you can only see a short ways. If you read the Washington Post complete story no just the part Ed Shultz quoted on his show they tell you it a lot less dense, trying to be nice.

    The issue isn’t who had more people, its whose issues are correct.

    I trust as a cop you have maturity. I hope you’ve also had economics 101. Every
    recession, and even in cases of hyperinflation, has required government action
    to help rectify it. A balanced budget amendment would prevent the government
    from acting appropriately during a fiscal crises.
    In 2000 Bush took over with record surpluses. In 2008 we experienced record
    deficits and the greatest financial crises in nearly a century. Now how is that
    Obama’s fault? Even McCain’s senior advisors are on record stating that Obama’s
    action prevented 15% unemployement. In 2008 Boehner was in complete agreement
    with Obama. Now he has amnesia. People with amnesia or a lack of integrity
    should not be re-elected.

    I think the bigger story is the condition the Mall was left in after the “One Nation” rally. These people who claim to be so “green” and “environmentally friendly” trashed the place.

    The irony is, the event’s main promoter was the Tides Foundation, who put a video out about how bad plastic bottles are for the environment. These people give new meaning to the word hypocrite.

    So, Please explain to lowly me and my sub par econ background. So hyper inflation, the devaluation of the currency genrally is offset by FED intervention dealing with the interest rate, to lessen the money supply. Further if done through monetary policy (which is a secondary and less effective means) i.e. running deficits you increase the money supply by issuing debt. In fact the mechanics of economics work against your point.

    To make it simple pretend you wallet is the money supply. You have 10 dollars in it. If you wite me an IOU fo 10 dollars, and in exhange I give you 10 dollars back, has your money supply increased or decreased? 10+ 10 is 20.

    Government spending is to stimulate economic activity in particular employment.

    Bush Bush Bush, so the solution to Bush deificiets, is to run more deficiets. Again great logic.

    Last point, by propping up GM and Chrysler they may have well staved off 5 points of unemployment, but is this a permanent fix? What they have done is taken out the share holder equity to keep these sinking ships a fliat for a few more seasons.

  • Anonymous

    I agree with your last sentence, which is why a balanced budget amendment would
    create everlasting harm. Even my father-in-law, a PHD economist who has only
    voted for one Democrat since FDR, would not favor such a policy.

    As far as saving GM and Chrysler, let us not forget about the multiplier effect
    of having these firms in business. On top of that, it seems the government and
    its shareholders, “We The People” are destined to profit from that example of
    stimulus spending.

    Bush, McCain, Boehner, and Obama were all in agreement that this stimulus
    package was necessary. Why the short memory? Could it be some politicians lack
    integrity?

    Deficits may not always be good, but occasionally they are necessary. As for
    your example, every business I know of, and I every homeowner I know of
    sometimes has to borrow money. The government is no different. I do agree that
    these debts have to be repaid and that financial solvency must take a precedence
    as our economy is now showing signs of a recovery.

    Glad to see we can have a civil conversation.
    Regards
    Keith

    It sure is disappointing to see how the Glenn Beck (Restoring Honor) crowd talks to their fellow American citizens on this thread. Where is the honor in comments like calling people that you don’t know “anti-American communist pigs,” “a socialist piece of shit who craps on this country,” “socialist pig” and so on? Those who make such comments don’t care much about America, since the spirit of America is to be found in the way we treat one another. There is no “honor” in such hateful words. Such a lack of imagination or consideration doesn’t bode well in terms of a vision of where to take OUR country.

    The One Nation rally was a huge success in Washington, DC. There were also One Nation rallies in other cities around the country on that same day. Part way through this video, you will hear Anne Coulter lie and state there were very few white people at the One Nation rally. I was there and I’m including some of the pictures, there were not only lots of white people of all age categories but people many ethnic groups.

    There is no way it was only 87,000. I must confess I have little skill in estimating a specific number, but looking at crowd shots its not even close. The 8/28 rally was at least twice as big judging from green space. Also how is Jamestroy’s comment so offensive. Judging from crowd shots the number of people isn’t even close, and neither is the trash. You might not like it, but there is no getting around that the WWII memorial was trashed after the One Nation rally, and the mall was cleaner after the 8/28 rally than before it started.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_ODMBL4O4U4OFB7NC43JQBZCOS4 Jim

    His comment has inaccuracies, but it isn’t too far off. 600,000 is probably too high of an estimate for the 8/28 rally, but 400-500k probably isn’t too far off. Judging from crowd shots, if Beck got 500k than One Nation got between 150-200k. Actually, yes the One Nation people were largely either communist or socialists. Thats not even me talking. Thats actually how they describe themselves. Yes they did trash the WWII memorial, and the mall. The pictures don’t lie. Unless you think that Glenn Beck came by after to throw trash everywhere to set these guys up or something.

    Does not matter to me how many, but what does matter is the differences between the groups. The Restoring Honor rally drew people who are dedicated to God and Country. Peaceful and honorable people who understand what made this Nation great and the need to return to those values. The One Nation Rally was populated by miscreants and malcontents. Socialists Party Members, Communist Party Members and others who want to tear this Republic apart and take this Nation down the path to ruin. The important difference is less in numbers and more in content of character.

    By the way, both photos in that link were taken at the same time of day (check shadows — not as obvious in the Restoring Honor Rally because it is slightly overcast, but still possible to determine the direction of the sun).

    It apparently matters enough to you to run a blog post about it. It apparently matters enough for you to attempt to run interference with your obscurantist bluster.

    It apparently matters enough to the organizers that they announced the purpose of the event was to show how many more people supported the leftward agenda. It apparently mattered enough that more than once during the event they compared the sizes of the two rallies for the edification of the few thousand present.

    Here’s something else to consider: After the Restoring Honor Rally, the grounds were absolutely clean. The “tea party” crowd in attendance simply picked up after themselves and left the place in better condition than before. The One Nation Crowd left piles of garbage strewn everywhere, and it took crews hours afterwards to clean up.

    Really, that’s all one needs to know about the two rallies!

    crowd estimate at Honoring America: we know from MLK I Had a Dream rally, that the crowd on each side of the reflecting pool is 200,000. Beck had that area full, as well. Looking at the Lincoln Memorial from the Washington Monument, we know that the large grassy area are the sought side of the reflecting pond holds another 250,000 people. Beck had that nearly full – so we give him 200,000 for that area. We know that the areas under the long rows of trees on either side of the pool accommodates another 200,000 combined , that these areas were packed bringing the total Beck count to 600,000 or so. We estimate another 60,000 at the staging area and around the backside of the Lincoln Memorial. We estimate 40,000 at and around the small pond near the Washington Monument. Total: 700,000. Let’s not forget that we know how many computers were on during the entire Beck affair – 130,000 plus. IF two people watched the rally per computer, you can add another 260,000. And several thousand more watched on C-SPAN but we do not have that count. Beck’s crowd did not trash the mall. The Union/Socialist Rally left the place a filthy mess. No signs at the Beck crowd. Thousands of manufactured signs at the other. Beck gave honor to America in a non-partisan way. The Union rally gave no honor to America and invited Cmmunists and European Socialists to the event as well as terror organizations (CAIRO and others). Understand that the crowd estimates are taken from admitted estimates of previous rallys at the mall and elevated photos of the event. “jenna2929″ argues for a ‘scientific’ Beck count of 87,000. She/he probably sleeps in a pasture somewhere and eats lots of mushrooms. The ’87,000′ estimate came from one of the networks before any of the elevated photos had been released. It is a lie.

She/he probably sleeps in a pasture somewhere and eats lots of mushrooms. The ’87,000′ estimate came from one of the networks before any of the elevated photos had been released. It is a lie.

    James, how dare you!? Someone’s politics are different than yours, so there’s no way they could be a veteran? I’m a liberal, I’m certain our politics are different if you’re a Beck fan as it seems, but I’m active duty military myself. Politics don’t matter when you wear a uniform, so if you disagree with Jenna’s politics, you’re more than welcome to, but don’t you dare question or insult someone’s military service based on personal political differences.

    I said, not a veteran that loves this country. Stop reading into what you want, and read what’s posted. Conservative veterans are the majority of the men and women that serve in the armed forces. My father was a WWll vet, and I have other members of my family in the Mideast to date. I HIGHLY respect the military, but I will NOT put up with liberals that say they served, ,and use it to their benefit to voice their filthy liberal views, which are NOT aligned with the majority of this MOSTLY right leaning country. And I don’t watch Beck, dillweed. Stop insinuating something by assumption, when you have zero clue as to who I am. I am the one that steps up and speaks out for my country when the scum on the left attack us. And I will do so by any means necessary. The left speak of being tolerant, when this is utterly false. The use of the race card has grown completely tiring. Who’s the racist in this country? The left! The boy that cried wolf will be the result of this overused attack. And since they want to play that game, then I have had to become intolerant of them. AND I will never stop until the disease is removed. There is only one person in this country that is on the list marked for removal, and that in the usurping POS POTUS. He was ineligible to be in this position from the beginning, and to this day is committing treason by holding this office. He, Pelosi, Reid and the Democratic party are going to be imprisoned once the truth comes out about how they went about to vet this communist/American hating usurper. The clock is ticking, and payback is coming soon to right this country once again. God bless America. And pray for the REAL soldiers that are fighting for us. And not those that use the label of vet to further their BS. A real vet does NOT have to state their status. The left likes to use it as it somehow to gain sympathy, so as to think we will not attack them. A coward says they are a hero. A hero does not see themselves as so…

    Wow, you’re straight out of the NRA handbook you crazy fool. Who exactly are you coming to get?? Oh sorry I forgot… the whole socialist conspiracy that’s hiding under your bed. Watch out for all those sleeping secret agents coming out to get you. I would recommend you move to Mexico as that seems to be lawless enough with a nice juicy division of social inequality, problem is all those damn illegals. So you’re pretty much screwed so you may as well vent your boiling hatred on a website. Way to go, keep fighting against the communist conspiracy. BTW my father was a vet in WWII and he would have kicked your dads ass.

    Nice come back douche bag. It’s not a question of your father being able kick my fathers ass, as it goes to your being able to kick mine, which is highly doubtful. And for you to even bring up such an ignorant statement about my father, who’s shadow you couldn’t even stand in, goes to the character you apparently lack, and the backbone absent from your useless shell of a being. Speak solely to me asshole, since my father just passed this past march, and should not be brought into the conversation. I’d love to meet you in person for resolve of this issue! But know it will never happen, as those on the left are cowards when it comes to being men.

    One, the NRA is no longer a proper organization for representation of the people, as they have gone sellout political. Two, no boiling hatred. Just shoot straight facts. And three, yes… there is a socialist/communist movement in America. If you didn’t see it at the recent rally in DC with the unions and the left, then you fell asleep following your jerk session to gay porn. Now go back to your hole, you sack of useless feces

    Amazing how they can compare their event as anything close to the 8/28 event. It is with clear eyesight that you are able to see the dramatic differences in crown sizes. They had maybe 10,000 or so, and left early. They had to be bused in and fed or they wouldn’t have showed. Everyone on the 8/28 event came on their own accord because they love their country. And after interviews with those that had to clean up the mess after this freakfest, it was stated, by them, that this was the second worst they’ve ever seen, only outdone by the mess they left after Obama’s swearing in. You can’t fight with the left Jim. It’s like fighting with a child. They are faux champions of the fight. We fight for love of country, and they fight for their greed. We fight to retain the greatness of this country, while they fight to change it. Major differences!

    Well I take it all back, with with your deep intellectual prowess about watching gay porn I realise I must submit defeat.

    PS its OK to like men Jamestroy, we don’t persecute people for that any more. Let go of your very obvious sexual inadequacies and move on. Us in this communist conspiracy believe in equality like that. As for a union rally resembling a communist movement I suggest you revisit your history, namely Roosevelt’s labor policies.
