Today I drive five hours to our capital so that tomorrow I can be at the John Stewart/Stephen Colbert Rally to Restore Sanity/and or fear. Fuhurt, who is mentioned in my signature, will be debuted to the world in drawn form. If anyone is planning on watching the rally live on TV, look out for the long haired guy holding a sign with a magical drunken leprechaun on it (my sign, though stereotypical, will say "Can't we all just get a bong?")! I know a lot of people don't like these two guys because they think they are liberal as hell, but they are not, and leftist leanings are not the meaning of this rally, only satire. I would love to hear what anybody thinks about this rally if you have an opinion.
I'm still not sure I understand the point of the rally. Is it just a big party, or are they trying to accomplish something? Is Stewart's brother (NYSE COO, bankster Larry Leibowitz) going to be there? Perhaps he can give some tips on how the common man can better funnel resources to the elite class.
I wish I could go. Have fun, Lion! Fomorian, I think the point is satire. Hopefully the turnout with make the point that 95% of people are neither far left nor far right, hence their enjoyment of said satire.
Love John Stewart........ Colbert is cool too but i like John's show a lot more. Anyway I bet it should be a cool event, I wish I could go. Have fun Lion and be safe.
It should be fun, so have some. I'd like to go, as it's probably less than a 2hr. drive, but I have work lately and can't afford to turn it down. Visit Arlington before you head back :thumbs-up:
Its all about the 90% of us who are tired of the the hatred and non-helpful discurse in our politics. But, mainly its about showing the crazy fuckers out there getting air time that we sane people are still here. Of course....its hosted by comedians........ Here is the completed sign (I fixed the spelling mistake). I forgot a ruler and a good eraser, but this will do. Look out for it!
Have fun! Do you think sanity will be restored in the general populace? Ha ha, I kinda doubt it. asssit:
Love Stewart and Colbert. Have a blast Lion. Smoke a doobie, they'll highlight you and your sign in clip I bet. hahaha BTW, not to nit pick here, but I think your statistic of 800,000 is bit off. I think the number you are looking for, that has been quoted in every prop 19 argument, is 80,000, and that's Californians, not nationwide. Unless you are looking at a number I haven't seen yet? Where did you get that statistic?
Fun as hell. I didn't get close enough to get noticed by the Rally cameras, but my sign and myself were photographed by others several times. The metro was like a fucking can of sardines, I didn't have to hold onto anything, there was no where to fall. As for the stat, maybe I am misreading what I or they wrote, but: http://norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=3418#question5
