The Push For Colbert's "Restoring Truthiness" Rally

Posted by samzenpus on from the giving-truth-the-bump dept.

jamie writes "A grassroots campaign has begun to get Stephen Colbert to hold a rally on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to counter Glenn Beck's recent 'Restoring Honor' event. The would-be rally has been dubbed 'Restoring Truthiness' and was inspired by a recent post on Reddit, where a young woman wondered if the only way to point out the absurdity of the Tea Party's rally would be if Colbert mirrored it with his own Colbert Nation.'"

    After a Colbert rally, I am quite confident that there will be trash all over the place.

    Huh... so I suppose you've done an in-depth survey, and have thus proven that Colbert Report viewers are slobs... or something?

    Fuck, I'm saddened, yet unsurprised, you got modded up... apparently there are 3-4 idiots out there who believe that baseless opinions insulting groups they dislike qualifies as "interesting".

    Um.... project much?
