"Rally to Restore Sanity" wrap-up

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

No, of course I didn't attend it.

But others did, and I read what they had to say.

AOL's Politics Daily called it "a high-production variety show" which studiously avoided political content. At the tail end, Stewart told the tens of thousands of attendees not how important it was to vote, not how valuable involvement in the political process is, but that we need to be nice to people we disagree with.

This was not a rally to ridicule people of faith. Or people of activism or to look down our noses at the heartland, or passionate argument or to suggest that times are not difficult and that we have nothing to fear. They are and we do. But we live now in hard times, not end times. And we can have animus and not be enemies."

How sweet!

Apparently, the only political content was a visit from Eleanor Holmes Norton, who is the non-voting representative from Washington, DC to Congress. She was there to curry support for DC voting rights in Congress.

I'd have thought that a Tea Party point . . . you know, taxation without representation and all?

So it was a bunch of joos rioting in our nation's capital? What did they want, free matzo balls?

An inside source (whom I cannot name) informs me that this event was sponsored by the Republican Party. It encouraged and celebrated apathy, not even including so much as an exhortation to vote on Tuesday. And the suckers ate it right up! Instead of going to actual rallies or protests (because they are "too busy"), they went to what looked like a rally or protest, but didn't protest anything; instead, they listened to commercially-successful singers and the guy from Mythbusters!

I may have said too much. Please embargo this post until Tuesday evening. Thank you.

Just for my clarification, and the hope that you can put my mind at ease so i can sleep tonight.

Are you guys for real about this?

And can you explain to me how your computer works without modern physics.
I would argue that the designer of the computer needed silly things like electromagnetism to create it. But if you could explain otherwise would love to hear it.

What does this have to do with Jon Stewart's Rally for Insanity?

I think it's Pasta Boy in disguise, trying to derail yet ANOTHER thread.

Ahem, one which I see has not been embargoed until Tuesday evening.

If the Demoncrats realize that they've been had by their corporate-media comedians who are on the Big Business payroll, they might vote instead of following Stewart's direction and being meek and peaceful and quiet!


AceofBass, why don't you toddle over to the Introduction Forum and provide an introduction, as is requested of all who join the forum? The directions are in the THREAD FOR NEWBIES that you were supposed to READ.

Howdy everybody!

Sorry I haven't been around, but this past month has been unbelievably busy. I guess by now some of you have been hearing in the liberal media all these lies about the so-called foreclosure crisis, or "Foreclosure-gate" as the Marxists say. In a nutshell, big Wall Street banks like those run by my company have been accused of improperly documenting mortgages; selling the same mortgage to 2, 3 or 10 different suckers; creating fraudulent documents to foreclose on mortgages we don't own; and destroying evidence.

Well, like I said, it's all one big lie. Nevertheless, with a Nazi-commie like Obama in office, there's no telling what the liberal police state might do to hurt free enterprise. So just as an extra special precaution, I've been busy the entire month supervising the shredding of documents and moving gold bars to safe-havens in Asia and South America. Of course, I want to assure everybody that there's really nothing to worry about and that you shouldn't hesitate to buy stocks in my bank. Indeed, this is the best time to do so, as prices are down and I've got lots of naked short positions to cover.

Anyway, as you all know, we've got a big election coming up tomorrow. There's a lot at stake with financial regulators breathing down my neck, but I'm confident that with your votes and Diebold machines, we can push back the liberal tidal wave.

This Landover Baptist forum is of course a great source of political news, even better than AM talk radio and the Fox channel, so I know that you're all well informed. However, I'd like to offer just a brief summary for those with double-digit IQs who are still a bit confused. Remember, for "values voters" like all you good Christians, the issues can be readily summed up as GOD, GUNS & GAYS.


GOD: Obama loves Satan, not our Lord


GUNS: Glenn Beck provides guidance to patriotic gun owners


GAYS: Need we say any more?

So all right-thinking Christians, remember that November 2 is Election Day. We need your votes now more than ever.

By the way, I'd like to announce that my company has been chosen to provide security at the polls in minority Negro and Latino neighborhoods. We want to ensure that minority voters are not cheated out of their right to vote, which is why we'll be out in force checking their IDs and administering literacy tests. With ACORN thugs constantly trying to intimidate legitimate voters, we just can't be too careful.

Re: "Rally to Restore Sanity" wrap-up

I watched about two minutes of it during commercials on Fox News and I can say in all honesty, I have never seen that many Godless heathens, homersexuals, obvious drug users, union thugs, ACORN criminals, SEIU communists, liberal elites, muslims, pedophiles, Naizs, Hollywood Joos, Soros lackeys, terrorist supporters, socialists, devil worshipers, catholics, immigrants, Mexicans and unsaved trash in my life.

If this is the future of our country, I look forward to relocating to Iowa.


I didn't see ONE Bible in the crowd, but I'm sure there were a plethora of the Origin Of The Species, The Satanic Bible, and the Twilight books!

Re: "Rally to Restore Sanity" wrap-up

HEY! Who leaked the Truth(tm) about the Rally before Tuesday?

Look, LIEBRALS are onto the plan!

Dismiss it if you will, but yesterday’s Rally To Restore Sanity and/or Fear demonstrated one thing very clearly: Corporate media has the power to motivate huge numbers of people to take action, even if that action doesn’t make much sense. Viacom can use Jon Stewart to get hundreds of thousands of Americans to travel hundreds of miles to attend a rally with no meaning whatsoever on the weekend right before a significant congressional election, when those Americans could be out in the streets organizing for congressional candidates instead. Viacom was able to harness the power of television to take a huge number of people out of the political equation yesterday.

Re: "Rally to Restore Sanity" wrap-up

Personally, I found it an interesting social experiment. There was little doubt that Stewart would actually put on something which had anything to do with any political process. The fact that he was able to garner so many young people there is proof however that it would be possible to get much of the youth vote. The question is how to do so without a celebrity endorsing such. Quite a pickle for those of us who are thinking about entering the political arena.

It was proof that many young people like to smoke the reefer and still refuse to turn from their sinful ways.


I would pray for them, but I fear they are all already damned! And rightfully so!
