You know, it was very PATRIOTIC and AMERICAN for Stewart and Colbert to host today's rally
things that needed to be said were said.

bigoted freaks that needed to be called out PUBLICLY were called out publicly.

the sorry, ineffective, corporate run, fear monongering media needed to be called out for being sorry, ineffective, corporate run and fear mongering soulless assholes.

and those were the two credible and patriotic Americans to do it.

2. I agree, CatWoman. At the end of Colbert's congressional appearance recently,
he gave a most touching reason why he agreed to testify. Very moving, very patriotic. Damned if I can remember what he said, though. :eyes: But these guys DO care and they are to be commended and appreciated. I'm so happy it was such a success.

4. I thought it was a great way for people to
feel good about our country's diversity. Really loved the music/artists they had, I thought the sketches were all well done and delivered important timely messages in a positive way. I just loved the whole thing.

5. If the 200-400k who were there, and the God knows how many were watching vote...
...it could make a difference in a few races.

Sanity fans would not vote for a tearacist.
