yeah, it was part of our guys trip up to Denali. We took the train up from Anchorage, dropped off in Talkeetna for the plane trip. Then jumped the train the next day on up into the Park. The magnitude of the park makes it one of my favorites. I put it behind the Grand Canyon and Yosemite, ahead of Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons and Acadia.

"and for seeing Russia from there, until you go there and find out different I'll take your criticism on it as total bullshit.."
I was responding to the above quote from you.

I think the second shot is of Pennsylvania Avenue looking towards the Capital. That would mean that it is an overflow from the Mall.

The foreign press estimates are a bit higher than the US press estimates...

A million march to US Capitol to protest against 'Obama the socialist'
By David Gardner
Last updated at 6:59 AM on 14th September 2009
As many as one million people flooded into Washington for a massive rally organised by conservatives claiming that President Obama is driving America towards socialism.
The size of the crowd - by far the biggest protest since the president took office in January - shocked the White House.
Demonstrators massed outside Capitol Hill after marching down Pennsylvania Avenue waving placards and chanting 'Enough, enough'.
The focus of much of the anger was the president's so-called 'Obamacare' plan to overhaul the U.S. health system.
Demonstrators waved U.S. flags and held signs reading 'Go Green Recycle Congress' and 'I'm Not Your ATM'.'
The protest on Saturday came as Mr Obama took his campaign for health reforms on the road, making his argument to a rally of 15,000 supporters in Minneapolis.
Saying he was determined to push through a bill making health insurance more affordable, Mr Obama said: 'I intend to be president for a while and once this bill passes, I own it.

Must be the long-reaching arm of the dwindling Republican/Conservative Party at work again...

Several of my friends went to the grand event and they said people were packed in there like sardines. According to them, it was a huge success and they are ready for more.
Hee-hee-hee.. It never takes long for a dyed-in-the-wool Liberal to fess up to getting his real news from the right.
I, for one, am glad to see you are taking breath mints for your potty mouth, as your new personalized avatar demonstrates. Does the blue suggest it's a minty-flavored variety?
That's hilarious. Notice anything missing from the body of the story? Like a source for the 1 million figure? Keep up the good word, Damo.
I'm guessing the folks at the Daily Mail and their rigorous fact-checkers used Palin rules. It looked like a million from London.

Perhaps you keep going to drudge.com vs. drudgereport.com. The former is a liberal hoax site.

From your second link Taichi:
In December 2004, FreedomWorks employee Sandra Jacques was introduced at a White House economic conference as a "single mom" from Iowa who supported the Bush administration's Social Security privatization plan. According to White House budget director, Jacques was was an example of how Bush promotes his agenda with testimonials from "regular folks." As the New York Times pointed out, however, "Ms. Jaques is not any random single mother. She is the Iowa state director of a conservative advocacy group." [5]
The Times also noted that Jacques "spent much of the past two years as a spokeswoman in Iowa for a group called For Our Grandchildren, which is mounting a nationwide campaign for private savings accounts."

Why don't you put down the mirror and pay attention to what you read. If you can't comprehend, let me dumb it down for you, you PostModernFool (or are you now referring to yourself in the 3rd person as the "liberal whisperer". See that psychiatrist soon, man.):
This woman was an active part of the GOP political party machine, not just some average schmoe who happened to vote conservative.
In other words, Freedomworks misrepresented her....typical modus operandi
of smoke & mirrors by the neocon foghorn's.
