Will you march to keep fear alive?? October 30, the National Mall



America, the Greatest Country God ever gave Man, was built on three bedrock principles: Freedom. Liberty. And Fear -- that someone might take our Freedom and Liberty. But now, there are dark, optimistic forces trying to take away our Fear -- forces with salt and pepper hair and way more Emmys than they need. They want to replace our Fear with reason. But never forget -- "Reason" is just one letter away from "Treason." Coincidence? Reasonable people would say it is, but America can't afford to take that chance.

So join The Rev. Sir Dr. Stephen T. Colbert, D.F.A. on October 30th for the "March to Keep Fear Alive"™ in Washington DC. Pack an overnight bag with five extra sets of underwear -- you're going to need them. Because, to Restore Truthiness we must always... Shh!!! What's that sound?! I think there's someone behind you! Run!

3. Isn't it GREAT? I bet Colbert and Stewart will get a million people there!
Or at least they'll SAY they got a million people there-just like Bachmann claimed about Beck's "rally." :D

4. we defeat the Teabaggers by identifying them together as a Group,
and pointing out what they really believe.

If allowed to run as separate individuals, some Teabagger candidates could play the middle and win.
But if we first identify the Group to the Public as the raving lunatics that they are,
then we tie each of these candidates directly to the Tea Party,
they will be forced to either accept this association or deny it.
Either way, we win.

Liberal Reporters/Bloggers need to launch a non-stop barrage of questions about where all GOP Officials stand on the Tea Party.
Force them to show their hand. They will either alienate the Teabaggers or the Independents.

Over 60% of the Public is anti-Tea Party.
If we tie each of these candidates to them they will become unelectable.

9. Sorry, can't. Too afraid.
Besides, I'm busy. I'll be marching for simmering-down with John Stewart then.

10. I can't wait to see how they play these two sides against one another.
When you think about it, it's perfect satire, not just throwing stones at the Beckistanians but giving comedic voice to all of us...with the understanding that we are, in fact, one. I, for one, hope the Fear crowd undergoes a conversion and everyone joins together in center Mall, united through the ability to have a good laugh at the fearmongers!

Too bad we can't produce ROTFL animated smilie signs...or can we?

14. I went to freeperville to see if they had anything on the subject and they
surprisingly seem to finally get it, although it was mostly about Stewart and the subject was to "freep this poll." So I'm going to tell people to DU this poll: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/local-breaking-news/stewart-colbert-to-host-rallie.html?hpid=artslot
