It appears that is exactly what happened today, from Obama’s “Organizing For Action” website (now disappeared) there was this announcement:
Reality is a bitch sometimes:
See http://freebeacon.com/ofa-gets-zero-attendance-for-climate-change-rally/
Timing is everything I suppose. Checking the forecast helps too.
OFA’s climate change ‘rally’ has zero environmental impact, zero attendees | Twitchy
To be fair, there were multiple rallies scheduled today, and some did attract tens of people.

@SasjaL – my apologies for butchering your moniker.
Let’s see … Benghazi. The NSA snooping. The IRS targeting groups opposed to the loss of liberty creep. Holder. etc. After these debacles hit the press Obama started talking about “Global Warming” again to try and re-rally the sheep. The sheep passed.
That’s good.
Oh, too funny … and one should ask, where was pres Shoom today?
I can explain what happened. You see, 97% of us were otherwise engaged chasing down the 3% deniers. Once we have them locked up safely behind bars, we will again be available for any march, hymn, rally, whatever.
“Redistribute Rich Lefties’ Wealth First!”

You meant Rich Fake-Lefties’ right?
I live amongst them. The driving $100,000+ cars I’m kinda OK with, but sending their kids to expensive private schools so they don’t have to meet black kids is a bit too fake-leftie for my taste.
I bet 97% (yeah really) of the Goldmann Sachs guys who took the $100 million bonuses voted for Obama.
Today, I gritted my teeth and listened to Government Radio (NPR) sporadically over about a 10 hour period. I’ve always considered them to be leftist mouthpieces, while they denied it and claimed a sort of fairness to viewpoints. I found today that they have now dropped any pretense of objectivity and have become full- on propagandists, with a large part of programming time dedicated to CACD propaganda.
Our tax dollars at work… the US government is openly engaged in lying to us at every turn.
…. but seriously, the pressing issue of our time here – which bathroom a 12-year old transgender kid can go in:

They need to pay actors for the next event, FakeWarmists.com is a business opportunity waiting to happen.

Well thanks to California’s new Hermaphrodite Law, that Gov Moonbeam Brown signed into law, we can all now go into any bathroom we feel like going into.
I took advantage of that, by going into the ladies loo this afternoon, at the local Taco Belle. Well I just felt like it was appropriate, and I did feel like going. But I always smile at the ladies who come out of the men’s John; they always seem like they felt the urge to go in there.

I hope you didn’t leave the seat up ……….
Well, well, well……
Someone made a bad calculation.
97 % of scientists leaning on Theories of Science for proving or disapproving thesis and theories do not belive in human climate change, so which catagory of scientists are included resp. discluded for anyone to arrive at 97%? Please let us know if you know 🙂

Was this planned before or after he flew his dog on a private helicopter to their summer vacation house?……..””””””””””
Well it wasn’t a helicopter; it was an Osprey; the stupidest piece of flying scrap metal, ever to leave the ground.
You would never catch me riding in one of those junk piles..

George you appear to be grossly misinformed.
” The V-22 is Safer Than Helos, Effective, Says Man Who Wrote the Book
The redesigned, retested Osprey’s safety record is so good that it’s actually the safest rotorcraft the Marine Corps flies, based on Class A mishaps per 100,000 flight hours. Those are official Naval Safety Center statistics.
Given that record, anyone who calls the Osprey “unsafe” or “accident-prone” these days either hasn’t bothered to learn the facts or is willfully ignoring them.”

AGW has slipped into being an outmoded, old fogey, mainstream, establishment issue. BO taking it up to revive his flagging popularity drove the last nail in the coffin.
The hip and cool are now in a panic over apocalyptic collapse.

Nobody listens to a fool …
Oh, wait … people indeed do! In modern history there are plenty examples of leftists, who ended up in a situation where human life and economics has been wasted. I one way or another …
Throw up? No, it’s more like changing diapers on toddlers. You finally get used to the “perfume” and wonder how a little fellow managed to produce anything similar, knowing that the situation will change for the better. The only question is when ..
Tens of people!!
HAHA!
This is for those commenting about the First Dog Bo. He flew in the Osprey because he thought something wasn’t quite right about Air Force One.

….Smart dog.
If the issue is a real one, the rain, er…”extreme weather”.. doesn’t stop a rally. Here, even with the assistance of extreme weather, or weird weather, no one showed up- missed opportunity:

These were the hotdog vendors and they were greatly teed off.

George of all the things you have written in this blog these are probably the truest.
Thanks to people like Anthony Watts many people are not fooled by the alarmist propaganda on climate change.
What? There weren’t any reporters? I’d have expected at least dozens in marxist Georgetown.
“tens of people”? LOL – at this rate they should be able to take over the world in about “tens” of thousands of years.
One of the comments regarding the Keystone Pipeline (I don’t think it was from Obama) was that the whole process resembled the “Keystone Kops”. The whole Obama Climate fiasco better resembles the Keystone Kops Kapers. The actual Keystone Pipeline process has been professional as compared to the Obama Climate Capers. I feel sorry for the Americans to have to suffer through this Presidency. The U.S. should be a leader in so many things. Instead they are bogged down. To throw a rally and have no one attend is a good indication. Unfortunately they will come up with an amazing number of excuses why it was not successful.
