BREAKING: Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert to Host Opposing Rallies in Washington D.C.
What's that dull, scraping sound? It's Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, sharpening their knuckles for a face-off that promises to be bigger than Nixon/Kennedy, Ali/Foreman, Aniston/Jolie, 50/Nas, Joe/The Volcano, Alien/Predator, Bunny/Fudd and Ecks/Sever combined.
On October 30, 2010, Jon and The Daily Show will lead the first-ever Rally to Restore Sanity on the National Mall in Washington D.C. — a movement of "people who have been too busy to go to rallies" — to beg America to stop shouting, throwing and drawing Hitler mustaches on people other than Hitler (or Charlie Chaplin).
Not to be outdone, The Colbert Nation is calling on all freedom-loving patriots to challenge The Daily Show's dark, optimistic forces by marching on the Mall at the same time to help Keep Fear Alive.
I've gone and done it! I'm greyhounding my way to Washington DC!!
I will be getting there early Saturday morning and I will be returning to NYC midnight Sunday. Much sleep that weekend but I will be damned if I miss one of the most important political rallies in my lifetime!

@failures art,
So? Is anyone else thinking about attending the political rally of the century?
Just taking a look at this thread after it was linked to the Tea Party thread during a discussion today.
Interesting, very interesting!
I hope you guys will provide lots of feedback for us folks in far away places!
Good luck!

@failures art,
I arrive at the bus station at 05:50 Saturday morning.
If any of you that are going to the rally have Droids, Jon and Steven announced on Facebook this evening that there is now a Droid app available for the rally.
