(Giant puppets => not funny.)<br /><br />I also don't see why restoring sanity and sarcasm can't go hand in hand. So long as it doesn't lead to some ironic position of cynicism-inspired inaction, it's a good thing.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5264937.post-48761973043675322652010-10-27T14:16:57.020-04:002010-10-27T14:16:57.020-04:00Point taken, Anonymous...

Also, don't be deterred if a few crazies show up. A lot of non-crazy people I know are going. I'd go, but I have too much work this weekend, and plus, I can't muster up that much enthusiasm for the premise of the rally. I support sane political discourse, but I'm also not going to just say "we all just need toJarednoreply@blogger.com
