The Revolution Will Be Televised: Comedy Central To Air, Stream D.C. Rallies (VIDEO)

On last night's "Daily Show," host Jon Stewart announced that the upcoming Rally To Restore Sanity would be televised, just like the "revolution" you were promised not too long ago. And in addition to being carried live, on Comedy Central, the event will be streamed live on Comedy Central's website. Plus, if you are the sort of people who can only watch teevee with other people, or are interested in using the Rally To Restore Sanity as an inroad to conquering your crippling agoraphobia, head on over to RallyMAO (which stands for "Rally My Ass Off," and not "Rally Mao Zedong," don't get it twisted, Glenn Beck!) to find a "satellite rally" near you, where you can join people in your local community in rededicating yourself to classical Stoicism.

This is good news for all who cannot attend, and especially good news for Democrats, because I've been led to believe that their entire volunteer workforce for that weekend's Get Out The Vote effort were going to be flying across the country to attend the rally, because that's precisely the sort of wealth that's been concentrated into the hands of campaign volunteers. Our position on this remains the same, by the way. If you've agreed to work for a political campaign, you should honor your commitment. And if you're a candidate running the sort of campaign that doesn't inspire the same fealty as a teevee show in people, perhaps you ought to consider another line of work? Thanks ever so much!

    • I really hope this actually makes a difference of some sort, because if i don't see a change in the american majorities ideals in the next few years i'm moving to europe... Wow never said anything so anti-patriotic but i'm really losing faith in this country, i'm only 17 but i can see this backwards christian/ corperate run government will completely kill our progress as a nation
