Petition For Colbert Truthiness Rally In Washington
Edited on Thu Sep-02-10 10:25 AM by lame54

What: It's time to Restore Truthiness to America!
When: TBA (Ask Stephen Colbert)
Where: TBA
Why: America, we are at a crossroad. Truthiness in this nation is at an all-time low since the inception of the concept was founded by the great American, Stephen Colbert. In its rich history over the past five years, Truthiness has become synonymous with American values such as freedom, honor, and Taco Bell. Recently our nation has suffered a truthiness drain. In fact, untruthiness is as common as measles vaccinations that cause cancer. We as a nation have stopped relying on our emotions and gut. We need to get back to what makes this nation great. Act on impulse not fact. Stop wasting time analyzing and just take what people say on face value. Why think when someone else can think for you. It’s superficial. It’s quick. It’s American. Restore Truthiness now!

We are looking for volunteers to help us write content and build communities. If you are interested, email support@colbertrally.com

3. Wouldn't it be funny if the same
"500,000" people showed up on the Washington Mall for this? I bet Colbert would be far more entertaining to them, then Glenn Beck.

4. better to attend a real rally to fight fascism NOW on Oct. 2nd
Colbert is great - but actually meeting up with people who organize for real change is how to make a difference.

6. DUers are being spoofed in the comments!
I'm somewhat depressed that I'm not among the spoofed.

Perhaps I'm not offensive enough. Gotta practice.
