Politics / TV The Rallies You've Been Waiting For
Posted by Anthony Hecht on Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 10:14 AM
Looking for a rally to attend? How about these?
The Rally to Restore Sanity and The March to Keep Fear Alive will both be held in D.C. on October 30, presumably very nearby one another. Real or fakey? The idea alone is enough to restore your faith in humanity just a little.
From the Stewart site:
If we had to sum up the political view of our participants in a single sentence... we couldn't. That's sort of the point.
And Colbert:
They want to replace our Fear with reason. But never forget — "Reason" is just one letter away from "Treason." Coincidence? Reasonable people would say it is, but America can't afford to take that chance.
So which one would you rather attend?
