Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear Announcement | ||||
|
Oprah? Oprah is now endorsing this rally?
Quick somebody check on Glenn Beck and see how hard he is crying now!
BTW, I have GOT to get me one of those invisible cloaks that Colbert was wearing!
Just wondering. How many people will come to the rally in witch costumes with the sign: "I am not . . .?"
ReplyDeleteThe Beckerheads on the Huffpo sites about the rally are absolutely livid. It is so threatening to them!
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this on TV today, I thought finally the huge presence of Oprah, in coordination with 2 of the coolest guys, all bringing different supporters to join the ranks and restore the vitality and excitement to the Sane party!
ReplyDeleteBlog from the rally, pretty please.
ReplyDeletejOT: Has it been confirmed that Bristol is indeed pregnant?
ReplyDeleteTwo more people I know are going. I guess that brings it to 10 people in my small circle of friends. They're coming from California and Florida. Woo-hoo!
ReplyDeleteEven the name "Rally to Restore Sanity" is a huge pep talk to the whole country which has been wallowing in gutter craziness for the last year.
ReplyDeleteIf the right-wing feels threatened by this rally, they should take a long, hard look at themselves and their behavior for the last year. Much of their rhetoric has been unAmerican and even downright seditious. They can take their flags which talk about watering the Tree of Liberty with blood, and shove them. All of us SANE folks will be waving the American flag!
I think today was an all around bad day for beck. First Oprah gives away airfare and hotels to all of the guest and then the Tide Foundation's CEO tells fox to drop Beck or end up with blood on their hands.
ReplyDeleteI do hope his day was ruined. LOL
Should you find yourself wandering through some of the offices of the congress critters. Some maybe dressed up but some are really Ogers.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to your posts.
I'm going. Also got a tour at the WH, SCOTUS, and Capital!!! We will have to tweet and meet up at a certain area. Going to be great! Taking some Sarah flyers with facts.
ReplyDeleteI'm coming from Cali!
ReplyDeleteOprah killed the whole vibe for me. Not a fan of hers; she's a bit too narcissistic and only gives when it feeds her ego.
ReplyDeleteWe are taking a road trip from Chicago and heading there!

I wrote this song in 1995. Did not have to change a word. I merely added a verse. Here are the lyrics to "Contract (On America)."
ReplyDeleteContract With America
I Guess It’s Pretty Cool!
Unless Your Folks Are Rich
Don’t Get To Go To School.
Contract With America
Began Pre-’95.
Don’t Want National Healthcare
To Keep The Poor Alive.
Contract With America
Everyone Needs A Gun.
In Case The Poor Rise Up
We’ll Have A Little Fun.
Contract With America
Ain’t Welfare A Bitch?
Eliminate For Everyone
Except, Of Course, The Rich.
Chorus: Trickle Down (4X)
Contract With America
Preys On Our Hates & Fears
Just Vote The GOP
Ignore Poor Children’s Tears
Contract With America
It’s Really Quite A Scare
They Brought In The Elephants
Clowns Already There.
Contract ON America
I Guess It’s Pretty Cruel
If You Think About It,
It’s Not The Golden Rule.
Pledge To America Inc.
The Great American Hoax
It's Really Quite A Stink
A Plague On America's Folks.
Chorus: Trickle Down (4X) Ken Swiatek ©
You can listen her by going to #38 - Contract:

Just to reiterate a previous poster with a forward thinking mind, due to the rally date and travel issues, make sure you're able to VOTE, whether early or by making sure you're back in time to cast your vote, we can't let the whackjobs run this country into the ditch!
ReplyDeletehere's sarah's "new" speech from san jose:

happy saturday gryph! i watched 10 minutes - that was all i could do in service to my country at the time. she makes an interesting reference to unicorns i think that you will enjoy.
Wow, Oprah, just Oprah'd the rally! That is very big, because as you know she picked our president, he, he...hell, she did a great job!
ReplyDeleteI am very happy at this recent development as this gives the rally mainstream pop culture relevance to the 75% of us that are NOT Teabaggers. I already ordered my rally t-shirt on the comedy central website
I just watched the Steward/Colbert/Winfrey gig. If I could be there I would. I used to live in NOVA but came home to Alaska because my sanity seemed most important.
ReplyDeleteI have encouraged all to join in, stream, blog, pix, enjoy. It will either be a beautiful day or not. I'm with you in spirit. Working for the set up here in LA in Alaska. It's building. We need to get the word up thru Fairbanks next week and beyond.
Kivilina,Emmonak should not be left out there holding the bag for all these drama queens.
IM you do good work, thanx. nem
Go, Oprah. Not a fan of your show, but you've shown chutzpah in supporting the president, which ticked off all your white, middle-class conservative female followers. And now you've endorsed the Colbert/Stewart marches. You've fully redeemed yourself in my eyes.
