The Rally To Restore Sanity And/Or Fear

Stewart Rally no laughing matter
  by Anne the Party Pooper

 Whore Post 

I don’t know about you, but my heart sank when I read about Jon Stewart’s Million Moderate March,
planned for the Mall next weekend. My heart sank further when I learned that liberal groups, lacking any
better ideas, have decided to take this endeavor seriously. It’s bad enough that the only way to drum up
enthusiasm for a "Rally to Restore Sanity" is to make it into a television comedian’s joke. But it’s far worse
 that the "moderates" in attendance will have been bused in by Arianna Huffington and organized by People
for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

<piles and piles of off-topic complaints>

Which is why this Jon Stewart rally is such a gloomy development. I'm sure his Million Moderate March,
if it happens, will be amusing, and I wouldn't want to spoil the fun by calling it "tragic." But if that's the
best the center can do, then "blackly humorous" wouldn't be that far off.

Lady, you may have set a new record for nonsensical horsesh*t.
You used a lot of words but you didn't say anything.

A talented comedian holds a rally to make the crying Nazi look stupid and your heart sinks?
What should make your heart sink is Jon Stewart (and the blogs) is all we've got.

Today's Democrats are too inept to slice bread and they're scared little nancyboys, to boot.
Thank Koresh that Jon Stewart takes his job more seriously than Democrats in congress.

...and what did you mean "If it happens?"

I'm a gambling man and I say it's going to happen.

I like Colbert better.

I remember Stewart from way back when we had two cable comedy channels and he was on one of them as a co host of comedy clip show called Short Attention Span Theater. 

I don't think he's become more serious as a Daily Show host.  I think it is more relative as "serious" TV news has become less relevant and is not delving deeply into the serious stuff they should be.

I enjoyed the set from John Legend and the Roots.

I really need to watch both shows more. I hate working nights.
