Short of goal

Rico's buddy Leigh threatened to take him to this event (fortunately not), but Dennis Lynch has an article in the International Business Times about it:

You may or likely may have not heard about a little rally called Operation American Spring (OAS) that was supposed to bring ten to thirty million "patriots" to Washington D.C. to overthrow the “elected Republican and Democrat usurpers and despots” at the nation's capitol.
Despite the lofty goals, Operation American Spring has fallen a little short of expectations.
The rally started Friday, but organizers vowed to “remain in Washington D.C. until acceptable solutions are gained.” What are some of these solutions? The main goal of Operation American Spring is the “restoration of our Ninth and Tenth Amendment laws to full force.”
A second goal is to oust President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Speaker of the House John Boehner, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and Attorney General Eric Holder from their offices. Seems the Springers aimed a little high with their goals and projections.
Oepration American Spring was started by retired Army Colonel Harry Riley, who also runs the far-right wing website PatriotsForAmerica.com. He claimed one million “militia members” committed to the rally but, so far, only a few have been seen. Some have reportedly split to Bunkerville to support Cliven Bundy’s continuing campaign against the Federal government.
So far crowds have numbered, at most, around three to four hundred people. Jackie Milton, head of the Texas group of Operation American Spring, said bad weather had something to do with it, but the numbers are still disappointing. "Now it’s a nice sunny day,” said Milton. “But this is a very poor turnout. It ain’t no millions. And it ain’t looking like there’s gonna be millions. Hundreds is more like it.”

Rico says that, even for a Texan, the guy sounds dumb...
