How Many People Were At Glenn Beck’s Rally? Here’s A Really Big Slideshow

slideshow
» 242 comments

Yesterday, Glenn Beck held his Restoring Honor rally on the National Mall at the foot of the Lincoln Memorial. You can watch Beck’s address here and Sarah Palin‘s address here. Steve Krakauer and I both attended and I took a slew pictures with the intention of Twittering them out. Alas, getting any sort of connection on the Mall yesterday was a near impossibility so instead I’ve uploaded them here. All of them.

Thus far, the big question following yesterday’s event appears to be how many people attended. Answer from the ground: a lot. Interestingly CBS is estimating the crowd at 87,000. NBC quoted the National Parks service which put it at 300,000. Based solely on my perspective from the ground and the fact I was in Washington for the Inauguration I would err on the side of NBC and the National Parks. But the discrepancy begs the question: how do you lose 200,000 people?

Of the crowd I would say they were across-the-board friendly and polite and very excited to be there. I would also note reports that it was a mostly white crowd are true, and it was something more than a few people I encountered remarked upon. It was also very very hot. Really big slideshow below.

    Sharton’s counter rally was aptly named “Restoring Dishonor.”

    “How Many People Were At Glenn Beck’s Rally?” Glynnis MacNichol

    A few hundred thousand more then you or your fellow leftists expected.

  • http://gordonbloyershow.com gordonbloyershow

    Glynnis is still grieving over the cancellation of Ding Dong School. Mister Rogers is no longer around to make her feel good.

    The Beck crowd just crushed her and Tommy Christopher.

    These two have no idea what is about to happen in this country. If they feel out of place with real Americans NOW just wait till Nov. 2nd.

  • ChiliPeppersFan

    how many people were at the rally?
    how many bottles of spf-70 (is that the highest?) were sold…damn

  • libra blue

    Howard Kurtz started off his show this morning by saying that the rally did not draw as many as was expected, but that no one knows just how many were there. Sounds a lot like this silly desperate post by MacNicol.

    I am sure her photos were not shot with any agenda in mind. Ha!

  • newzmaker

    Olbermann, Maddow, and Matthews, should be fully-loaded tomorrow, with their usual divisive yaps of ‘racists’, for the Beck rally. Those 3 guys spend entirely too much time, scaring black people.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Chris-Lindhartsen/704548889 Chris Lindhartsen

    The problem is, no one can say a definitive number because there weren’t ticked sold, there wasn’t a count done by anyone, and everything is just rough estimations.

    I’ll give Beck some credit, it wasn’t an overly political event as much as a big push on military/religion, but it did have it’s political moments as anyone would expect. I listened to the whole thing in post through the CSPAN site and some fair points were made, though I almost felt like I can’t take anyone getting an award seriously since we seem to throw awards at anything that moves for any reason, even if those people did deserve recognition.

    Either way, I’d probably say the estimations under 100,000 people were probably pretty accurate, but it could have reached 120K maybe, but I’m just pulling numbers out of a hat on that one. Overall, didn’t truly care for it, but wasn’t too bad. Not too bad on your Lonesome Rhodes.

  • JimBob

    After CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN finish publishing their crowd estimates, DOUBLE
    them, for a more accurate count!
    You know the MSM and these Far Left
    nut-bags are still going to refuse to recoginze what the hell happened at
    The Lincoln Memorial yesterday!!
    Let me try!! Hello HELLO!!!
    Those were very good, hard working ( I hope they are still working, what with
    the Obama Admin). very concerned, PATRIOTIC Americans there!! HELLO and a hell
    of a lot more watched and listened.
    I can’t wait for MSNBC’s VERY SMART host’s to apologize on tomorrows shows
    for the hateful and as usual wrong spin they put on it!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Chris-Lindhartsen/704548889 Chris Lindhartsen

    JimBob: I can’t be a patriotic American if I believe in more liberal notions, listen to conservative ones, and lean more towards our current president and some of what he’s done for our country [not all, but some]. I’ve never understood how one side can claim the patriotic flag while, what does that make the opposites, are they out for our destruction or something?

    BatBoy & Azarkhan: I was all over the map on that, I apologize. The event pushed heavily on military/religion, I don’t truly care for making that tie too heavily, but it wasn’t too badly done. Hope that’s more clear.

  • Lurker

    cBS says 87K LOL

    Their pollster on Twitter follows Michael Moore, Al Gore etc…

    Does this look like 87K? ABC had to up it to 300K, I think someone said they heard on NBC News say 500K

  • JimBob

    Chris, the reason I included “Patriotic” Crowd in my comments is because
    whenever average people like the crowd you saw yesterday and me assemble and
    it is not understood or comphehended by the left wing nuts AND the msm we are always called
    racists and our Patriotism questioned!
    Already seeing it on Sunday Morning Shows, and just wait for tomorrow for the
    far left Nut sacks like those on CNN and MSNBC start!

  • jk76

    When you push people too far then they will make a stand. Which is why libertarians and conservatives are fighting back. Left-wingers use probably about 10 character slurs for each of the previously mentioned. They basically say how evil Beck is….then talk about him daily, criticize everything he does, even before he does it.

    One day, the left will see humanity for what it is, free-will, both bad and good. Or maybe they already do, choice, they want to tell you what is bad since they know you can choose. Eventually shit will hit the fan and the tree-huggers and hardened socialists/progressives will rely on the people they hate. Btw…I like nature too =p

    Estimates will probably be out this week by some people counting from photos/video. 50k or 300k….when is 50k not alot?

    Chris Lindhartsen said:
    Azarkhan: I was all over the map on that, I apologize.

    Chris, I apologize for my comment. But I really despise the Left, so maybe just dinner and a movie in the beginning, OK?

    Below is an excerpt from an article in WSJ. Substitute “American leftist” for “oik”, and you’ll get a good appreciation of what the Obama-Pelosi Left is about. The entire article is great exposition on the disconnect between the Left and average Americans-

    The British philosopher Roger Scruton has coined a term to describe this attitude: oikophobia. Xenophobia is fear of the alien; oikophobia is fear of the familiar: “the disposition, in any conflict, to side with ‘them’ against ‘us’, and the felt need to denigrate the customs, culture and institutions that are identifiably ‘ours.’ ” What a perfect description of the pro-mosque left. (Scruton’s focus is on Britain and Europe, not America)

    “The oik repudiates national loyalties and defines his goals and ideals against the nation, promoting transnational institutions over national governments, accepting and endorsing laws that are imposed on us from on high by the EU or the UN…

    The oik is, in his own eyes, a defender of enlightened universalism against local chauvinism. And it is the rise of the oik that has led to the growing crisis of legitimacy in the nation states of Europe. For we are seeing a massive expansion of the legislative burden on the people of Europe, and a relentless assault on the only loyalties that would enable them voluntarily to bear it. The explosive effect of this has already been felt in Holland and France. It will be felt soon everywhere, and the result may not be what the oiks expect…”

    Yet the oiks’ vision of themselves as an intellectual aristocracy violates the first American principle ever articulated: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal . . .”

    This cannot be reconciled with the elitist notion that most men are economically insecure bitter clinging intolerant bigots who need to be governed by an educated elite. Marxism Lite is not only false; it is, according to the American creed, self-evidently false. That is why the liberal elite finds Americans revolting.

    They (CBS= Can’t Be Serious) have on their *bias bifocals*. If they were to remove them they would suddenly find the other 200K. They are too shrouded in anti-FOX/Conservatism hate to be honest about the turnout. Just makes them look beyond petty.

    It doesn’t really matter how many people were there. The regime’s political officers, Couric, Matthews, etc, will make up a number and put it out there, who cares? The fact is, there were lots of people there. Don’t get caught up in petty debates started for the purpose of changing the subject. Stay focused.

  • DonnaK

    After watching some of the rally yesterday and Fox interview Beck this morning, I totally agree with Beck’s anology of himself “he’s a rodeo clown”. The man is not interested in doing anything for the country, he is interested in adoration and money. I feel sorry for the poor sheep that just blindly follow him, he is kind of like the old time snake oil salesman, you know he is a phony but you just can’t pass it up. I fully expected him to go out in the audience, and make a wheelchair victim stand up. We all have our own faith, and what we believe in, but Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin have no concrete ideas about how to help the people and the United States, they have platitudes and faith statements, and that is not going to get the job done.

  • Lurker

    How do you get 100,000 when just the sides of the Reflecting Pool holds around 200,000?

    Obamanomics?

  • Lurker

    DonnaK, Beck raised $5.5 million for Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

    Tell me what you have done for the Country?

    Wrong!

    The problem is that the National Park Service gave a crowd estimate for the “Million Man March” and when it was much lower than the racists wanted it to be, they threaten the National Park Service over its estimate and since then, the National Park service stopped providing estimates!

    “The U.S. Park Police, which is a part of the National Park Service and enforces the law on the National Mall, formerly estimated how many people showed up for events there. Those estimates were then reported by the media.

    But that changed after there was a major controversy in 1995 over the attendance count for the Million Man March, which the Park Police estimated was 400,000 people–far less than the million or more that organizers of the march claimed.

    In its 1996 appropriations, Congress banned the park service from spending money on crowd estimates.”

    It doesn’t matter, does it? By this time tomorrow you’ll be arguing it was 319,817,647 people, such is the flexible nature of your intellectual honesty.

    Easy- if it’s more than 250k, it means there where more people at this event than at the original event. The MSM and libs can’t let that happen.

  • DonnaK

    I do a lot of things in my community, and so do a lot of other people, and they don’t need to make it public or make money on the other end like Beck & Palin. I’m just wondering how much of the 5 million actually will go to the special Operations, or if it will be a little like Sean Hannity’s fund, with all the overhead and luxury plane tickets, SUV, and private security. Right wingnuts always believe all that comes out of their “snake oil “mouths!! I’m just sayin!!

    So, Mr. Blowhard, the Americans I was with at the NAN rally were what, unreal Americans? The older folks who wouldn’t give Beck the effort of concern because they had been through the battles of the civil rights movement in the 60′s; they were not “real Americans” Gordon?

    People at the NAN rally agreed that Mr. Beck could have invited Rev. Sharpton and the rest of us to his rally and started on a new path of unity, but he choose to divide Americans again. That’s what you reactionaries do, Gordon, with your nasty rhetoric that we “unreal” Americans see on these stories.

    Oh, you posted this at 11:30 a.m. Shouldn’t “real Americans” like you, Mr. Blowhard, be in church on Sunday at 11:30?

    The real question to be answered now is, will O’Reilly give up his time slot for Mr. Beck now that Beck got more than 100,000 people to his Restoring credibility rally?

    What is the deal with making fun how the people that were there looked. I saw many posts yesterday doing this. It seems the left is more concerned with appearance than character. If I remember correctly Dr. King spoke about hoping people would judge others on the content of their character instead of outer appearances (the color of their skin).

    It really doesn’t matter how many tea-baggers were there; 50k, 500K; who cares? They will become increasingly irrelavant over time. Demographics are changing and in a few years, conservatism and the GOP will be little more than a fringe movement at best, at worst they’ll form up with the klan to the delight of many tea-baggers. The tea-baggers will be remembered as being a big smelly stain on America and an embarrasment to true patriotic Americans, as they should.

    By the way, to all you tea-baggers – I’m sincerely sorry but there’s not a damn thing you can do about it except to buy gold.

    Cheers, and remember, no more hate, no more divisiveness – Glenn Beck, aka Jim Jones said so!

    …conservatives have made unsourced claims from the ground of up to 1 mil… While preemptively claiming that the liberals will misrepresent crowd size… When a private company that specializes in estimating crowd size from the air complete with a margin of error delivers a number of 87,000 the response is to attack Sharpton’s crowd size, claim the number is not important (which it plainly is to all involved), attack Obama as bad with numbers, blame the “MSM”… Anything but a dress the facts of the matter… Democracy demands that we be able to argue well… Reflexive partisanship helps no one…

    GBR, NO liberal is a REAL American. Just look in the mirror. Put down Mao’s Red Book.

    DonnaK, anytime you comment it makes everyone feel superior to you.

    It does not matter how many were there because the left was always going to say it was not enough. The fact is all these clowns thought he just “might” draw 10,000. If you just look at old photos of other events and read what the crowd estimates were then you will see Beck had far more than 100,000. That is not a objective estimate that is a left-wing liberal hope.

I was SO disgusted, shocked and outraged at how incredibly FOUL the Dems were during the primary I ran screaming. Never again. I even apologized to all my Conservative friends for even being a part of that hypocritical nastiness. There are a small few on here on the right who are outrageous, but over all, the anger, lies and hate comes from the Left. So much so that I can’t even type something as mundane as *have a nice day* without a certain hateful person/s attacking.

    Record Breaker! Bush Takes Most Vacation Days For Sitting President

    President Bush recently spent his 879th day at his ranch in Crawford, Texas, since the Supreme Court, in all its great wisdom, elevated him to the presidency. Bush broke former President Reagan’s record for taking vacations from the White House 879 days down on the ranch – which, if you’re into arithmetic, works out to around 30% of 8yrs. Maybe Bush’s legacy will be “the 70% solution.”

    I don’t know if they are christians. I’m not religious, so I certainly have no idea if they are. No, it isn’t civil debate, but what do you really expect when you attack someone as a racist on your very first meeting?

    first of all, you can see from my posts that i’ve been civil & backed up all my statements w/FACT.

    fourth, YOU ARE A TEA-BAGGER. don’t blame ‘ME’ because you were stupid enough to name yourselves that. (do i need to dig up a link proving that too? why should i when you are REALITY RESISTANT & have been ignoring all of them thus far?)

    fifth YOU’RE A RAGING HYPOCRITE to call lanquihue ‘COLORFUL’ & but me ‘HATEFUL’ for simply stating the TRUTH & backing up my claims with FACTS.

    you wingnuts devolve so very quickly you can’t even keep your pretend poser ‘civility’ on for more than 1 post.

    it wasn’t simply a vacation, it was a vacation while americans – mostly black working class were DROWING.
    further, the RACIST McCAIN brood called obama MUCH MORE than a socialist.
    finally, there was MUCH, MUCH MORE in my links than you’re referencing.

    It has been three days since I asked all the Fox News haters to produce just ONE lie from yesterday on Fox News. Lies from liberals that are interviewed on Fox News do not count. Since LME must have missed my posts and he has shown that he is one of STUPID ones, I have to explain that COMMENTARY programs are not news programs. Also comments that you don’t like are not lies.

    No one has posted a single lie from Fox News in the last three days. One of the STUPID people posted a list of nonsense they got from one of the left websites. Most were from commentary programs and the others were distortions.

    it’s kind of hard to discredit my sources when they use actual footage of FAUX ‘NEWS’ ANCHORS & out the LIES & HYPOCRISY that way… isn’t it?

    Mr. Lindharsen, I would say that you can be counted amongst the patriotic Americans for so long as you would pledge your sacred honor to uphold and defend the Constitution, and that you believe our representatives in government must at all times act within the paramters of that Constitution. Otherwise, you have the right to disagree with anyone else’s views, but these tenets are sacrosanct. The greatly important thing you have said in your post (to me) is that you LISTEN to what those with opposing views have to say. If you do so with an open mind, your mind shall remain able to grow in its understanding.

    Hate is never a productive emotion except that it can draw fuel from one’s soul to enable them to survive long enough to exact their revenge for wrongs done. Even so, to burn the energy of one’s soul diminishes the spirit in kind. It is best to never allow hate to enter into one’s mind as it clouds one’s thinking.

    Usually, I get disinterested in discussions that break down into insult laden hatefests…..but for some reason this thread entertained me just because of that….maybe because the nastiness by some was so unadulterated and pure, and the pleasant indifference by others was sublime. Kudos to everyone.

    I especially liked the one poster who so vehemently defended his claim of non-hatefulness by frothing at the mouth and projecting nothing but scathing hatred and vitriolic hypocrisy. Irony that delicious is uncommon.

Or is it that because you’re so partisan, you just don’t care, and would rather throw invectives instead of actually trying to comprehend?

    Either way, you miss the point that most people who are pissed, are pissed because of policy and conduct. The only thing you and others like you, especially those in government and the media, accomplish by ignoring that point and choosing to hurl insults, is to piss off even more people.

    But I’m pretty sure you and the others will keep on doing it anyway, no matter how pointless or counterproductive it is. It honestly doesn’t make sense to me…..but carry on.

  • The Real Royal King

    Thankfully, I was out of the country, briefy, for this recent lowpoint in our democracy. I was pleased to see the the most reliable crowd estimates were somewhat under 100K, which seems reasonable in light of the fanning out of the sheep and the gaps still remaining, and the grossly exaggerated counts in other tea party events. I’m sure by evening, O’Hannity will have edited photos with the numerous gaps filled in, and the same peoplke appearing multiple times. But, of course, as Marceaux, I mean Blower tells us, O’Hannity is commentary, and on FOX, lying for commentary is to be expected.

    We can certainly say that we have Father Couglin reborn, another demagogue and charlatan seeking to divide Americans, one against the other. Like Father Couglin, Beckerhead seems to think that the US has a Department of Religion which meets with other cabinet level departments to help formulate and enforce policy in America.

    Unlike Father Coughlin, Beckerhead preaches, and we can only call it preaching, a wretched heresy in which the key to salvation is not God’s grace, freely given, and offered us through the Scriptures, only, for Protestatnt Christians (solo Scriptura) or through the Church in Scripture and Sacrament for Roman, Anglo and Orthodox Catholics, but through “good” works. Of course, for Beckerhead, the “goodness” of the works are to be judged by adherence to certain radical rightist political concepts. But the definition of “goodness” is not the heresy, but the very notion that God’s saving grace is insufficient and that it must be supplemented by any work of man. This heretical and cultic concept is an anathema to Chrisitanity and to Christians, and must be feared by and denounced by all Christians. In his letter to the Church at Ephesus, St. Paul clearly instructed us: Ephesians 2:8-9 says:

    For it is by grace alone you are saved, through faith–and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. Not by works, so that no one can boast.

    I suppose this underscores the inherent danger in freely mixing “religion” with government and nationalism. All suffer. Beckerhead did us all a dreadful disservice, and we all ought to pray that he be led from the darkness of heresy into the light, and that his faithful followers see not the darkness, but the light.

    BECKERHEAD SET FORTH HIS CULT OF PERSONALITY,
    DELIVERED VERY POORLY, INDEED, EVEN DREADFULLY,
    AS TO MATTERS OF POLICY: MORE BANALITY.
    AS TO MATTERS OF THEOLOGY: PURE HERESY!

    No no no…. they are right. We are fat old white sheep ….. wait….. We are fat old hateful racist white sheep who disagree with this administrations policies simply because the POTUS is a mongrel.

    NOW you can carry on….

    Brother, I gotta tell ya’. If what you spread here is what you consider ‘light’….. then I’ll take ‘darkness’, and LOTS OF IT.

    No shit bro. You do your cause a REAL disservice.

    Million man march= 837,000, Glenn still loses.

    Didn’t the Park Services say MMM was 400,000 and that got everyone into a hissy fit threatening to sue so they stopped giving estimates?

    You can’t be serious.

    That’s your take on this gathering? That’s your focus?

    I’d call you obtuse and shallow but you’re probably too obtuse and shallow to understand what I mean.

    This is hilarious. The King hurls the worst, most hateful insults at anyone who disagrees with his far left philosophy. He stereotypes entire sections of the country and arrogantly looks down his nose at people who commit such ‘sins’ as living in trailers or eating Cheetos. Then he turns around and acts religious, touting his church attendance. The guy is a laugh riot!

    writer is, of course, completely correct that RRK hurls baseless insults. When writer noted that “you went to a Sharpton rally and lived? You’re the man!” it was a purely fact-based observation delivered in the sincerest traditions of Christian love. You lieberals could learn from writer’s statements of pure, unadulterated logic.

  • writer

    Why thank you, Truth. As you’re probably aware, people did die as a result of Al’s ‘talks’ in the Tawana Brawley and Freddy’s Fashion Mart incidents. So that is indeed fact based. The rest was a bit of a sarcastic jab. The difference is, I don’t switch religion on and off like a light switch depending on the topic. That’s the Royal King’s thing.

    Yes, I remember clearly when Al Sharpton called upon specific individuals to commit violence. Conversely, the stabbing of a cab-driver following weeks of anti-Muslimaniac sentiment was mere coincidence.

  • writer

    Both tragic, Truth. And I’m sure no one on the left would relate anti-Muslim sentiment to the stabbing of the cab driver.

    I was fortunate to be at this event also. It was a very encouraging and uplifting event. There was nothing said that could have offended any American. It is no surprise at all that the media would try to downplay this event. However, I know that Barack Obama, his puppet master, and all his minions have been told the real number and have no idea what to do about it.

  • BillL

    I watched the rally on the internet. Over 120,000 were connected.

    Show of hands of how many people here who are taking shots at the rally actually WATCHED the rally. (Cue the sounds of crickets chirping) I thought so…

    Personally, I made it a point to watch it so that I could tell my friends and what actually happened, not what they were told by the media or those who just hate Beck. I concur with BiiL, the viewers were up over 120,000 people at the Facebook page. I think I saw a high of 126,000. That does not include CSPAN which was covering the event live as well. So for those who want to wish it was only 70 to 80 thousand who saw it, keep fooling yourself, we will see you on November 2.

    We will see you on November 2, the sea of brown shirts would make the Nazi Party proud. Keep the hate and lies alive!

    Writer, exactly WHO died as a result of Al Sharpton’s actions in the Tawana Brawley case?

    What EXACTLY was Al Sharpton charged with for his involvement in the Freddy’s Fashion Mart Incident?

    On other websites you may be able to get away with spouting this crap, but not here. Bring out your “facts” to support your statements, and then I’ll commence with embarrassing you once again.

    Freddie’s Fashion Mart

    In 1995, a black Pentecostal Church, the United House of Prayer, which owned a retail property on 125th Street, asked Fred Harari, a Jewish tenant who operated Freddie’s Fashion Mart, to evict his longtime subtenant, a black-owned record store called The Record Shack. Sharpton led a protest in Harlem against the planned eviction of The Record Shack.Sharpton told the protesters, “We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.”

    On December 8, 1995, Roland J. Smith Jr., one of the protesters, entered Harari’s store with a gun and flammable liquid, shot several customers and set the store on fire. The gunman fatally shot himself, and seven store employees died of smoke inhalation. Fire Department officials discovered that the store’s sprinkler had been shut down, in violation of the local fire code. Sharpton later expressed regret for making the racial remark, “white interloper.”

    Dunbar Village

    On March 11, 2007, Sharpton held a press conference to highlight what he said was unequal treatment of four suspected rapists in a high-profile crime in the Dunbar Village Housing Projects in West Palm Beach, Florida. The suspects, who were young black men, were arrested for allegedly raping and beating a black Haitian woman at gunpoint. The crime also involved forcing the woman to perform oral sex on her 12-year-old son.

    Crown Heights Riot

    The Crown Heights riot began on August 19, 1991, after a car driven by a Jewish man, and part of a procession led by an unmarked police car, went through an intersection and was struck by another vehicle causing it to veer onto the sidewalk where it accidentally struck and killed a seven-year-old Guyanese boy named Gavin Cato and severely injured his cousin Angela. Witnesses could not agree upon the speed and could not agree whether the light was yellow or red. One of the factors that sparked the riot was the arrival of a private ambulance which, on the orders of a police officer worried for the Jewish driver’s safety, removed the uninjured driver from the scene while Cato lay pinned under his car. Cato and his cousin were treated soon after by a city ambulance. Caribbean-American and African-American residents of the neighborhood rioted for four consecutive days fueled by rumors that the private ambulance had refused to treat Cato. During the riot blacks looted stores, beat Jews in the street, and clashed with groups of Jews, hurling rocks and bottles at one another after Yankel Rosenbaum, a visiting student from Australia, was stabbed and killed by a member of a mob shouting “Kill the Jew.” Sharpton marched through Crown Heights and in front of “770″, shortly after the riot, with about 400 protesters (who chanted “Whose streets? Our streets!” and “No justice, no peace!”), in spite of Mayor David Dinkins’s attempts to keep the march from happening.

    Slide 6/48 is a picture of a LaRouce supporter and states: “There were a number of them in the crowd sporting this image (the infamous Nazi) of Obama”. This is a blatant LIE and your credibility is nonexistent. There were NO images like this at the rally. This picture was taken of a booth several blocks away from the rally; I walked past it on the 1.9 mile walk back to my hotel. The picture has been taken in such a way as to suggest that the lady is a member of the crowd. Pathetic and ridiculous excuse for “journalism”.
