Squint hard enough and you can almost see the protest

An anti-Tea Party protest today at the Capitol building in Washington DC, organised by paid Obama operatives, drew numbers so small that many couldn’t even find the protest they were supposed to be taking part in.
The “economic action event”, billed as an anti-Tea Party shutdown protest, was put together by Organising For Action, the social welfare Obama support group.
The protest was so poorly attended, however, that it prompted reporters and observers to take to twitter and share jokes.

@mkhammer @charliespiering If you squint real hard, you can almost see the protest.

A few more protesters, and the pro-Obama group would have enough to form a self help group.
Washington Examiner reporter Charlie Spiering noted that he did run into more pro-Obama protesters, who had latched onto a completely different protest, because they couldn’t actually find the OFA event.
@ofa organizer says there are about 18 protesters – some are scattered looking for the protest

Several lost OFA protesters ran to join this protest – but it was the wrong one. pic.twitter.com/tBGTXd2OSI

It seems that there certainly wasn’t much action this time around for the pro-Obama group, and someone certainly needs to look into overhauling the organising.
OFA really can't do anything outside of getting people to vote for Obama, can it?

Compare the numbers at this event to those at the veteran supported march this past weekend, during which protesters seized barricades and removed them from war memorials.
