    Unless I missed the entire point of the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear and I'm not sure why we would even compare it to Beck's event.

    I really enjoyed it. I made one of my huge Republican friends come down just for the lulz. We only spent an hour or so at the event and decided to go look around DC a little bit. I kept thinking, imagine if you were a tourist and didn't speak any English and you were in DC for the day. I feel like it would look weird from that point of view.

    Anyway, getting out of DC was a nightmare.

    Did the speakers wear actual clown suits?

    I would guess that $400k out of the $500k+ was raised purely by Reddit. I am really happy to read that Stewart's group was focused on helping out the mall. Did anyone hear if there was a "huge mess" left by the rally?

    Interesting text from the poster of that video Maxiep

    Please remember three things about these people:

    1.Not even close to all Democrats are twerps, but every single twerp in this video is a Democrat.
    2.Said twerps hate you, and want you to die in a fire.
    3.If you vote on Tuesday, they’ll hate you even more

    Agreed. I also read the Daily Beast, the Huffington Post and the NY Times. Instapundit is a terrific blog, however, and is where I seem to find the most interesting sites.
