Restoration of SANITY and/or FEAR


I voted this morning. One small voice, one ballot in the noise and insanity of the mid-term elections. Time to restore a bit of Sanity to the national dialogue, perhaps just for a day.“I’m mad as hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore!”

Stewart’s event — for people “who think shouting is annoying, counterproductive and terrible for your throat,” according to the rally website — is the comedian’s latest gambit to send up today’s overwrought political discourse. This time, he is keying off the “Restoring Honor” rally hosted by conservative commentator Glenn Beck last month. As of Wednesday afternoon, more than 132,000 people planned to attend, according to the event’s Facebook page, while satellite rallies were being organized in Chicago, Seattle, Austin and other cities.

  2. Lets not lose our sense of humor my friend.
    It is a Comedy Central production.
    I credit Jon Stewart for drawing attention to the global idiots and rallying people around the idea of reason and sanity.

  3. ...i have not lost my sense of humor in the least...

    ...you seem to agree that it is, indeed, about the GIB...i understand the Jon Stewart is a comedian and that his show is entertainment...

    ...unlike Faux News, where the majority of viewers think it is a news channel...

    ...i read yesterday that 10% of Daily Show viewers believe IT is a news show...

    ...just goes to show the GIB knows no political bounds...

    ...btw...the other label given to this post, was "humor"...

    ...check out the Label Cloud in the RH column, click on a label and blogger will filter only the posts with that label...kinda cool...the music filter results in an awesome collection of music videos...
