Zero People Turn Out For March for Life on DC
— Ace

Apparently. I assume that because the media told me so, by failing to even note it occurred.

Since they covered the tens of dozens of Mostly Peaceful Occupiers every hour, I assume no one at all showed up for the March for Life. Or, at least, no more than six, tops.


Nah, they're not biased.

I mean, lets just take this thing full communist block.

9 They always do this - underestimate TEA Party gatherings, overestimate Occupoopers. They Lie About Everything. Not to say everything is a lie, but sooner or later, when it's convenient or advantageous, *BLURP* out comes the lie. Someone this morning said there was also interference because of a shift delay of local government workers, I don't know the details but maybe someone local can comment on that.

"Thousands" of people?  When was the last time the left had a march with this many people?  Probably back in the Bush days for an anti-war protest (and I'm still not sure they got these numbers).

The pro-lifers do this every year, and they get the same coverage.

Also, check out the photos from WaPo she links.  No crowd shots, and plenty of shots to make the pro-lifers look crazy.

39 Being in the DC area, one time several years ago I happened to be downtown when this march was moving along down Pennsylvania Avenue. Curious, I stopped and watched as what had to be several thousand marchers flowed past. It was a huge crowd.

When I read about it in the Washington Post the next day, the Post's crack team described the crowd as "several dozen" people. They and their fellow MFM'ers lie, all the time, whenever they want to.

They have always pretty much been obliged to cover it locally. 

It used to close down the length of the Embarcadero as a crowd of people probably a mile long walked down it.  And this time, they closed down Market Street instead.

They have to at least give it token coverage.  Of course they show the "counter-protesters" just as much, as though there are as many.

In the linked blog post, the Anchoress made a very good point about how the media shows its bias by choosing what NOT to report: Fast & Furious, Solyndra, Lightsquared, no budget passed under Obama even when he had supermajority Dem control in the Senate. For quite a while, only Fox News was reporting on Fast & Furious and Solyndra.

Also, remember the nonstop coverage on the national debt in 2008 with the debt counter constantly being hyped? Well now that Obama has added  a historic $5 Trillion in new debt (not counting unfunded liabilities) in less than 3 yrs, you don't hear peep about it

Obama's sleazy payoffs to Big Pharma bribing them with taxpayer money to stop running ads against Obamacare and 'Cornhusker kickback'/'Louisiana Purchase' backroom payoffs are dismissed as "old news". The MSM extreme bias and deceit is sickening.. yet they pretend that they are 'objective'

Not surprised about the lack of coverage for the March for Life.  But I AM surprised the media didn't cover this, since it involves their precious Occupy scumbags.

 

-----------

 

"Occupy Protestors Disrupt Washington Pro-Life Prayer Vigil" (click my name for the link)

 

A peaceful religious tradition was disrupted today as the pro-abortion version of Occupy Washington attempted to surround and overwhelm a group of prayerful pro-life advocates in front of the Supreme Court.

 

For the last nine years, CEC For Life has sponsored a prayer vigil for unborn babies on the morning of the March for Life. Opposition from pro-abortion advocates is always expected, but often minimal. This year, however, CEC For Life found themselves quickly surrounded by a much larger and far more hostile group than usual, according to Fr. Terry Gensemer of the organization.

 

Gensemer said that, as those leading the prayer vigil began to invite pro-life advocates to join in worship, those with the pro-abortion opposition positioned themselves inches away from the musicians, chanting, screaming, and dragging a ten-foot banner between the team and those trying to pray and worship.

 

One member of the pro-abortion force actually spent an extended amount of time screaming into the face of an adopted child whose sign read: “I’m glad I was adopted and not murdered.”

You'd think the MFM would be eager to cover the Occutards as they stand up for a woman's right to murder her unborn child!

O/T But worth mentioning considering Mittens judicial appointment record in MA: This day in 1990—President George H.W. Bush nominates New Hampshire supreme court justice David Souter to a seat on the First Circuit. In a tragic blunder, less than three months after Souter accepts his First Circuit appointment, President Bush nominates him to the Supreme Court vacancy resulting from Justice Brennan’s retirement. Deploying his full arsenal of clichés, Teddy Kennedy rails against Souter’s Supreme Court nomination. His efforts, alas, prove unsuccessful.

John Paul Stevens ” was the liberal lion of the SCOTUS” was a Gerald “I’m so moderate” Ford appointment. (Replaced by “Wise Latina”)

If only the Republicans had nominated right, we would have a 7-2 advantage on the SCOTUS.

96 I didn't hear about the march yesterday, though I knew it occurred. I did hear on NPR about a rare "successful" embryonic stem cell treatment of restoring some sight to a blind woman. I believe NPR put that report on just to spite the right to life March.

97 In the good news column, last week a well-baby clinic opened across from PP in Madison, WI, offering an entire array of services for women who decide NOT to abort their babies, complete with ultrasound equipment, lots of baby supplies and durable goods, and plenty of volunteer help along with the professionals. Just having the city approve the construction was a miracle in itself, so send a few prayers this way and lets get to saving babies.

Pointing out that 60% of New York City's abortions are black babies is RAAAAAAAACISSSSSST!!!   Likewise, mentioning that almost 40% of all abortions nationwide are black babies is RAAAAAAAACISSSSSST!!!!   Because facts are apparently the most RAAAAAAACISSSSST!!! weapon a person can wield.

101 Gensemer said that, as those leading the prayer vigil began to invite pro-life advocates to join in worship, those with the pro-abortion opposition positioned themselves inches away from the musicians, chanting, screaming, and dragging a ten-foot banner between the team and those trying to pray and worship.

One member of the pro-abortion force actually spent an extended amount of time screaming into the face of an adopted child whose sign read: “I’m glad I was adopted and not murdered.”

This is just freaking vile. Maybe Soros the Kapo is right and the OccuTards are going to riot. Just in time for the elections too!

107 "It infuriates me how it's always anti-abortion and pro-choice."

The thousands of women and girls coerced/shamed/blackmailed/physically forced into abortion by boyfriends, abusers, and even parents would probably disagree about the "choice" part. I've read a few too many stories this week about underage girls dragged crying into clinics by their mothers. Yeah, keep lying about "choice."

Do you really think if Sasha or Malia "make a mistake" before they finish Harvard Law they will be allowed to choose for themselves?

One of the things that makes alex something something is listening to people whine and bitch about the political prosecutions against PP for refusing to comply with the notification requirements when an underage girl shows up for an abortion.  I've ever so politely screamed at people "It is definitionally rape if an underage girl is pregnant!  What, you support rape?"  Somehow that fine fine technical point of law and fact goes whizzing right past the ever so enlightened ones.

If you can get the Catholic Channel on your TV, they're repeating the whole 5 hours starting Saturday morning. Look for the black minister telling the crowd how O and his cronies are killing "my" people.
