29,999,990 Missing From D.C. Rally
Operation American Spring: Tens of protesters showed up to take Obama out of office (Images) (via FreakOutNation)
Operation America Spring is underway and the only thing missing are the 30 million protesters the organizers promised us. Every livefeed was a dud and only lasted for a few minutes, but we did get a few screenshots. I only expected about 10 old dudes…

I even see a few parking spaces downtown. Wonder if the government workers just decided to call in sick and stay out of the fray.
Foundryman May 16th, 2014 at 1:14 pm
Open parking space in DC??? Wow, that is a rarity…
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 3:50 pm
oh come on arc – you’re from that area, you know the days of the week.
it’s
F R I D A Y!!!
if you’re ever really serious about throwing US out of power on a Friday, it’s gotta be before noon, otherwise most of the employees won’t be there to find out, and they’ll be back at work (or stranded in traffic) on Monday morning.
federal Holidays exempted, of course.
Foundryman May 16th, 2014 at 1:09 pm
The true 30 million patriots aren’t missing. They are at home or work, like us laughing at a few brainwashed fools wearing flags in Washington.
Nobama May 16th, 2014 at 1:48 pm
They’ll be at Cracker Barrel for din din and be snoring at the Motel 6 by 9 sharp. Wait til they git home and tell their grandkids whut dey dun!
BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:13 pm
I understand DC doesn’t have a Cracker Barrel – oops!
Nobama May 16th, 2014 at 3:42 pm
I figure they will be heading back south on 95. There’s a few down that way. The best thing to tell them is that D.C. Walmarts are having a half price sale today only.
arc99 May 16th, 2014 at 3:49 pm
If they leave before rush hour, they might try heading out Pennsylvania southeast and take 301 through Maryland to the Harry Nice bridge into VA. We take that route all the time when we visited my mom’s side of the family in Virginia. I think there are a couple of new Walmarts down there as well.
Nobama May 16th, 2014 at 4:00 pm
No Walmarts in D.C to my knowledge so they would be all over the place. Imagine going down 395 at this hour. Your way would be better. My parents are in the Northern Neck of Va and I go that way too. Or post to their FB page free beer at Gravelly Point by the airport. Almost impossible to navigate there even with GPS.

Waffle house….?
William May 16th, 2014 at 1:11 pm
Maybe they stopped for lunch?
BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:13 pm
He looks exactly what I would expect – and I bet he has a friend with the same tailor?
verntroyerdude . May 17th, 2014 at 7:58 am
Yeah, I stole this picture! Hilarious.
Bunya May 16th, 2014 at 1:50 pm
Oh great! They just had to schedule the rally on the day I had to stay home and wash my hair!
Alan May 16th, 2014 at 2:31 pm
yes, and I’m rearranging my sock drawer today
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:37 pm
I, uh,
forgot.
sorry.
Chinese Democracy May 17th, 2014 at 1:34 am
turns out you didnt miss much
Dwendt44 May 16th, 2014 at 2:06 pm
Maybe they went to Washington state by mistake.
BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:12 pm
There is a line of trucks following a semi hauling Depends down the DC freeway!!!
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:35 pm
that’s a possibility, Dwendt. ‘REEL’ Patriots of the 21st century America aren’t exactly well noted for their sense (or otherwise) of direction.
David May 16th, 2014 at 2:13 pm
I find it truly hilarious and completely ironic that they chose to assemble at the base of our national phallic symbol/monument, to show that they really are just a bunch of DICKS! Funniest thing I’ve seen from DC in ages, except for maybe when the Orange Man was screaming, “…Are you kidding me?!?!…” from his l’il podium. Priceless!
BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:12 pm
David, these morons have bellies so big they haven’t even SEEN their dicks recently – or at least since their last Viagra dose.
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:31 pm
If you’ve been to DC lately, you’ll note it’s one of the few placed left where the messes can gather in a solid front against tyranny at one time.
arc99 May 16th, 2014 at 2:34 pm
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know that you can count me out

BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:11 pm
Who casted this demonstration? This definitely proves the “like breeds like” – and none of these guys should ever breed. Especially to their first cousin.
fahvel May 16th, 2014 at 4:35 pm
someone else should not have bred – then they wouldn’t be here.
Shades May 16th, 2014 at 3:10 pm
They were willing to stand up to drone attacks but rain? Not so much.
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:27 pm
being out in the rain could cause you to become really very sick, Shades, especially if GOD decided to punish America by striking it’s Capital City with earthquakes, volcanoes, and a 400 foot high tsunami with drunken sailors from New Port, VA on surf boards hooping and a hollering all the way up the Potomac.
Shades May 16th, 2014 at 4:33 pm
LOL, that description made me think of the surfing scene in Escape from Los Angeles.
BanditBasheert May 16th, 2014 at 3:14 pm
Mr Obama and Mr Biden were so shaken they left the WH:

granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:16 pm
actually, they were seen being dragged away in chains and shackles on the orders of WHITE Congressperson Trey Gowdy (R) South Carolina, who has opted to run the Executive Branch of Government until such time as he decides the permanent banishment of the current imprisoned leaders at his BENGHAZI TRIAL.
“someone has to keep America heading back to the WHITE TRACK until I can legally, by MY own authority depose this (sic) CRIMINAL Hawaiian and his CRIMINAL cohorts through my impartial hearings trial that will be all about ME!”
Chinese Democracy May 16th, 2014 at 9:01 pm
Benghazi is going to be an embarrassment for the conservatives for a long long time. McCarthy era 2
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 4:06 pm
oh well, I guess it just goes to show who the ‘REEL’ patriots are. Kinda hard for me to believe the other 317,799,990 other folks in America just don’t seem to kare about US being on a run-a-way freight train to where ever? – at least these few (very very few – %=.0000003 of total population) did manage to spark a national frenzy (kinda sorta) over the BENGHAZI treasonable treachery – or at least once it’s proven for a fact that POTUS Obama has never been born. (not possible for America to ever have an Hawaiian living in The WHITE House!).
Debra Watkins May 16th, 2014 at 4:41 pm
So you say there are 30 million angry, crazy, conservatives, but when none appear you are complaining?
Shades May 16th, 2014 at 4:47 pm
We’re not complaining. We’re laughing. We’ve got popcorn and beer and having a great time.
arc99 May 16th, 2014 at 5:06 pm
I second Shades’ comments. I don’t see anyone complaining about the low turnout.
Personally, the only complaint I have is the delusional unAmerican arrogance of these people to presume they spoke for the majority in demanding the reversal of the results of lawful elections. The President, Pelosi, Boehner and the rest all won their elections. This is not Egypt where there was a de facto dictator for life.
If these American Spring activists are so disenchanted with lawful elected leadership then they need to get busy and win some elections. In the United States of America, that is how things are done. Instead of ranting about the Constitution, perhaps they should take a moment and read what it actually says.
Like it or not, the President and members of Congress were chosen according to the US Constitution. You cannot claim to support the Constitution, then turn around and ignore the rules governing how our leadership is elected.
ARTICLE ISECTION 1.
All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
SECTION 2.
The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen every second year by the people of the several states, and the electors in each state shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the state legislature.
fahvel May 17th, 2014 at 3:28 am
wonderful concept other than the idea that most people with political ambition don’t give a flying f’k about anything but lime light and power.
Chinese Democracy May 16th, 2014 at 7:58 pm
I would like them all in one place so they cant harm themselves or others.
fahvel May 17th, 2014 at 3:26 am
and then a wall all around – oops, it’s politically improper to point at a rwnj and call it a rwnj – oh my, what does one do? –
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 10:40 pm
LOL at the horseless cow chips ain’t complaining, Debra, howbeit there was a lota broken promises (typical of conservatives).
Shades May 16th, 2014 at 4:51 pm
Here’s the FB page I’ve been following. A lot has been deleted over the day, I guess the embarrassing admissions of unfulfilled expectations. They went from it being a 1-day event to a weekend event and now saying they’ll say until they run the prez out of town. Oh wait, he is out of town. Yeah, they’re taking credit for that. They can’t communicate because Obama has jammed the internet. He also seeded the clouds to cause the rain this morning. What else? … Oh yes, he has snipers on the White House trained on the crowd. https://www.facebook.com/groups/693495324050139/?fref=ts

TGIF American Spring!
There’s a stranger in my head,
Glitter bombed the White House lawn
Pink flamingos in my car
Commies passed out in the yard
Then we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot
This a hickie or a bruise
Pictures of all Ten attending American Spring
Ended up online
I’m screwed
Oh well
It’s a blacked out blur
Cause we took too many shots
Think I kissed a Klansman but I forgot
Last Friday American Spring
Yeah,we maxed our Wal*Martian cards
Got kicked out of the stars & bars
So we hit Pennsylvania boulevard
We went shooting in the park
Plugged some skinny dippers in the dark
Yeah I think we broke the law
Think the city towed my car
Ripped my favorite tea party cammies
Warrant’s out for my arrest
Think I need some public benefits
That was such an epic fail
Last Friday American Spring https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f1TKLywtok
Chinese Democracy May 16th, 2014 at 8:53 pm
LOL TENS of people
Shades May 16th, 2014 at 5:28 pm
Now they’re saying they’re staying until they run President Obama out, no matter how long it takes. Where to begin. When the Occupy protesters tried that, they were arrested and these are the people who cheered the police on. Second, remember all the cracks about the lazy, unwashed, unemployed occupy protesters who had no job to go to? Even the Oath Keepers got tired and gave up on Bundy. I figure, as soon as the Slim Jims are gone, they’re outta there.
JustaSlob May 16th, 2014 at 5:31 pm
It was David Copperfield GOD DAMMIT!!!! HE DID IT!!! There are 30 million there!!!!

I saw David Copperfield disappear an elephant once. 30 million people? I smell a summer special .

It must have been the Rapture.
craig7120 May 16th, 2014 at 11:35 pm
Ok, now that makes sense
Good call JJ
Chinese Democracy May 16th, 2014 at 8:57 pm
You old white boys are no longer the majority or in charge…get used to it. Now get out of the park before someone makes a nuisance call on you.
Charles Strate May 16th, 2014 at 10:06 pm
they wouldn’t know patriotism, if it bit them in the ass.
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 10:57 pm
Here’s some good news for the Revolution stranded in DC:
from dusk to dawn, people all over the world are showing their support of ‘get the ‘Hawaiian’ out of The WHITE House’ by turning on their headlights while driving. The exact number is unknown, due to the simple fact that I don’t have the faintest idea of how many folks around the world drive their vehicles at night, but my best guesstamation is somewhere between 1 and 3,000,000,000? (lucky guess).
granpa.usthai May 16th, 2014 at 11:09 pm
-all good things come to those who wait.
If Hillary tells the Obamas in November 2016 that they’ve got 2 months rent left; they’ll be out before February 2017.
Nobama May 17th, 2014 at 7:15 am
I would wager most of em are fishing for breakfast of the 14th St. bridge right now.
Jake May 17th, 2014 at 8:20 am
Latest from Fox News -the true picture of the massive rally the lamestream media were too afraid to show: Millions show up:
art May 17th, 2014 at 6:53 pm
come on, no portapotties no rally, how you going to rally a bunch of 50 plus old dudes with out portapotties, they actually should rename them selves the pee party. every time I went to tape a tea party rally the crowds to the portapotties were bigger than the audience watching the speakers.
