Never before has a rally been so feared by politicians and lawmakers!
Never before has a rally been so...shrouded in mystery?
As the long-anticipated response to Glenn "Chalkboard Jockey" Beck's Restoring Honor rally, Jon Stewart announced his RALLY TO RESTORE SANITY on The Daily Show this past Thursday (Sep. 16th). This so-called "call-to-reasonableness" will take place October, 30 at 12-3pm on the National Mall and will feature...um...speeches? Music? One-armed plate-spinning unicyclist jugglers? Here, check out the Daily Show's official RTRS announcement and decipher for yourself:
| The Daily Show With Jon Stewart | Mon - Thurs 11p / 10c | |||
| Rally to Restore Sanity | ||||
| ||||
Whatever the hell will be going on, FROBlog will be THERE, reporting "LIVE!" (not live) from the rally grounds. Stay tuned to FROBlog for all your RTRS updates! And, truthiness be told, you could always visit the official RTRS website: http://www.rallytorestoresanity.com/. As well, The Daily Show will be giving rally updates on the program and from Twitter/Facebook.
And, of course, leave it up to our good frenemy, Steven Colbert, to host a counter-rally, The March to Keep Fear Alive (http://www.keepfearalive.com/). Spoiler Alert: you can get to either web site by clicking the "Don't Click Here" button on either page (it's fun for a while, but overuse can result in violent nausea). Colbert's march will be **GASP!!** on the same day, time, and place as the RTRS as he attempts to offset Jon Stewart's rally by "notch[ing] it up a scoatch." Well, SIR, we shall see who emerges victorious, shan't we!
("shan't?")
My friends, the SANITY will rise again!
Gird your loins...and wear comfortable shoes!
