Moksha Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Rally to Restore Sanity - The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - 9/16/2010 - Video Clip | Comedy CentralMarch to Keep Fear Alive - The Colbert Report - 9/16/10 - Video Clip | Comedy CentralWhile Jon Stewart wants to hold a restore sanity rally, Stephen Colbert will hold a march to keep fear alive. This seems to be the best of both worlds by respresenting both partisan positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierGuy Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 John Stewart will be holding a Rally to Restore Sanity in Washington D.C. Steven Colbert will also hold a march to keep fear alive. Glen Beck and the Tea Party had a rally. Time to hear from another side. Stewart, Colbert: 'Rally To Restore Sanity' vs. 'March To Keep Fear Alive' (VIDEO) Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert will march together on Washington.Or against each other in Washington.Either way, expect plenty of Comedy Central fans to show up on October 30 when Stewart's "Rally To Restore Sanity" will meet Colbert's "March To Keep Fear Alive" in the nation's capital.The duo have been hinting at a major announcement for several episodes in a mock response to Glenn Beck's own "Restoring Honor" rally that was held this year on the anniversary of a famous Martin Luther King speech at the same monument. There's no indication that the announced get-together is a joke, though. Both comedians are telling their audiences to book hotel rooms now (though for different reasons, as you'll see)."It'll be like being in a chat room," Stewart explained. "But real."Stewart punctuated his announcement on the earlier program with a homemade-looking banner reading, "Take It Down A Notch For America."Colbert followed up with an announcement on his own show, and insisted that he would "notch it up a scotch."

Moksha Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Finally a joint march and rally that all can get behind because of the cross purposes! I assume we can have discussions here against Sanity and against Fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL10 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 This is awesome! I heard some woman had a dream a la Wayne's World 2 to get Colbert to do a march like Beck's, but THIS IS FAR BETTER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honor Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Anyone here planning on going?Nope, I'll probably be trying to brave the insanity at my ward's Trunk Or Treat party, but otherwise I totally would! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prisonchaplain Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Sanity is overrated, fear is overused, and I was personally heartened that so many turned out for Glenn Beck's rally in to pay respects to our very own...HONOR.

ADoyle90815 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 If I lived near DC, I probably would attend, but since I'm on the west coast, I can't afford the round trip airfare and other expenses right now. Besides, I have to be home the next day to pass out candy, as most children go trick-or-treating on Halloween, regardless of what day of the week it falls on. After all, our 4th of July fireworks took place on the 4th itself, even though it was a Sunday this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierGuy Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 (edited) Take it down a notch is right. The AM radio political talk shows should take it down a notch. Edited September 20, 2010 by HoosierGuy Fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moksha Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Have there been any early estimates from Fox that the crowd will be over 2 million? How about the aerial surveillance photo people placing it at 57? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
