My hands are huge, no problem there, I assure you.
My crowds are big. Amazing people. Greatest people.
It's hilarious to watch both sides argue over such a dumb, trivial topic. This is going to be a long 8 years on Pat.net.
Now that the truth comes out, I think Trumpites will fall in line
so far you posted sources that confirm there is no official count of the attendees. everything is an estimate, nothing can possibly be a "lie"
all you are doing is running cover for unscrupulous media outlets who ran ridiculous imagery comparisons and race-baiting headlines instead of covering an event intended to peacefully transfer power to an incoming president who won the election fair and square.
nothing can possibly be a "lie"
No, Spicer lied about the subway riders among other things. That was not an estimate.
We don't need these Hollywood actors There are plenty of great actors with character standing in line to take their place.
We don't need these rebellious unamerican actors to influence our children. If they don't want to obey our laws and uphold our American standards and the real constitution, not their personal interpretation, go to another country with their liberal beliefs.

he underestimated the trump number, and quoted the correct obama morning number during the 2013 event. more than half a million people used the service in total for both events. the comments were far from "lie"
any comment on the race-baiting headline, which actually was a lie? or is just team trump that gets to be under the magnifying glass...
Good stuff. I still slap Maynard's "Hot" album from 1979 on the turntable for a gin martini or three. Rick Petrone on bass, man; anybody that can make a bass sound like more than just mixing instant mashed potatoes has serious talent.

Well hell, if we're just throwing up music then, Saint-Saëns Symphony No. 3.
You'll remember the part from 28:50 to 30:10 as If I Had Words from Babe.

As well as from the 1970s pop hit.

Great song/piece.
Victor Wooten, Marcus Miller, and Stanley Clarke (SMV) are that good if not better - now!
For a while they were in a trio (TRIO) - best Jazz Trio (Bela Fleck, Jean Luc Ponty, Stanley Clarke)

Recently Stanley teamed with Lenny White, and Hiromi (In the Garden)
Seems like the sucessors to Coltrane, Thelonious Monk.
Charles Mingus.
On top of it all, there were tons of Trump supporters who couldn't get in to the Inauguration because of TSA being slow. Sorry libs, I'm with Trump on this one even though he STILL shouldn't have made a big deal about something so petty.

Well, if we're going back to jazz, we got to include the greatest jazz song ever, In the Mood.

Since this thread keeps bumping up to the top of the home page, could one of the accusers please specify the particular lies alleged? Something like this:
1) Press Secretary said "x" [link], verifiable fact he knew or should have known was "y" [link]
2) second example proved like the first
3) etc.
Otherwise no one seems to be persuading anyone. Each faction loves their own lies and hates the lies of the "opposing" faction, while both factions combine essentially to distract attention from topics that might actually matter.
Bigger crowd, smaller crowd... "at this point, what difference does it make?"
Apparently it does to the Trumpites. And then why lie about it.
So you're apparently a Trumpite, since you created this Post and commented repeatedly about it. I hope at least you can see a certain symmetry. If you're seriously asking "why lie," the most likely answer is the same as to the question "why Tweet:" free publicity, dominating public "debate," controlling the news cycle. Modern technology makes the strategy cheaper than bread and circuses were in Roman times. As long as partisans waste everyone's time shouting about crowd sizes, cheering their faction and booing the "opposing" faction, it's working.

That has the feel of Baez doing Diamonds And Rust
Another classic. I love the line, "my poetry was lousy you said".

After zipping past the 70's, it sounds like you guys are ready to break out the 78 lps now.
Yeah, seeing him play the upright bass like a flamenco guitar was pretty cool in the OP.
I guess Maynard had some pretty lavish bands that he toured and had trouble making money for that reason. He could also wig out. Strange, most people remember him from the "Rocky" soundtrack.
Nobody put any "Return to Forever" cuts with Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, and Al DeMeola in there yet.
I'll have to flip my "Visions of the Emerald Beyond" LP on to see what exactly would cause somebody to frisbee it. It is a pretty cool record by all accounts.

You know she wrote that about Bob Dylan, right?
Yes, the unwashed phenomenon, the original vagabond. She was totally Taylor Swifting him.

Pushing your old thread to the top of the days list is a form of Trumpian Self-Aggrandizement.
Boy you learn quick! Welcome to the RED SIDE!!!
Trump is Our Dear Leader
"he underestimated the trump number, and quoted the correct obama morning number during the 2013 event. more than half a million people used the service in total for both events. the comments were far from "lie""
No, he didn't. He lied. Here are the real numbers:
In case anyone thought it was a one-time mistake. He also lied in his second conference.
No Alternative to it.
Perhaps as with the Oscars, folks will protest the lack of non-colored people entertainers.
Spicer just held his morning briefing telling reporters that Green Bay looked masterful again last weekend, winning the NFC Championship game by the biggest margin in history.
When told that Green Bay actually lost the game, Trump responded that "They would have won except for the 5 illegal TDs allowed by the referees"
No, he didn't. He lied. Here are the real numbers:
he underestimated the total trump number but had the correct obama morning number. where's the sensationalized "lie"?
In case anyone thought it was a one-time mistake. He also lied in his second conference.
again, that's not a "lie". it all depends on what you consider to be "dramatic expansion"
"he underestimated the total trump number but had the correct obama morning number. where's the sensationalized "lie"?"
No, he purposely used the wrong numbers. We call that lying.
"On Friday, the D.C. Metro published ridership statistics for the past four inauguration days. The figures go up until 11 a.m., presumably on the assumption that riders using the system after that are unlikely to be attending the noon-time ceremony.
Spicer is correct that, per Metro, there were 317,000 trips taken before 11 a.m. in 2013, “President Obama’s last inaugural.†But by that metric, the 2017 figure would be 193,000 — less than half of the 420,000 Spicer claimed.
In terms of full-day ridership, Metro told The Washington Post that riders took 570,557 trips Friday. But by that metric, Spicer is wrong about Inauguration Day 2013, when there were 782,000 trips taken. On Inauguration Day 2009, per the Post, that figure hit 1.1 million."
again, that's not a "lie". it all depends on what you consider to be "dramatic expansion"
No, it's a lie. There is basically no expansion at all since 2009 even according to your graph. There is no definition under which zero is considered a "dramatic expansion"
