The numbers in presence to the Glenn Beck rally Aug. 28 at the nation's capital is the main topic of debate. Beck and his minions are claiming up to half a million individuals went to his so-called "Restoring Honor" rally. Some G.O.P. politicians went further. Up to a million was their optimistic assertion. The importance of political rallies and comparable public events is often associated with turnout. Believers in the cause could be counted on to inflate the number. Critics are predictably skeptical of the totals. However, not a soul will really know for certain how many Beck worshipers were called forth to cynically exploit the anniversary of Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream speech” at the hallowed site where he gave the address.
