Rally to Keep Fear Alive
Naturally Stephen Colbert is holding a "counter-rally," the rally to Keep Fear Alive. Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert have long been friends and partners in crime.
According to the Rally to Keep Fear Alive site, the reasoning behind the rally is:
"America, the Greatest Country God ever gave Man, was built on three bedrock principles: Freedom. Liberty. And Fear -- that someone might take our Freedom and Liberty. But now, there are dark, optimistic forces trying to take away our Fear -- forces with salt and pepper hair and way more Emmys than they need. They want to replace our Fear with reason. But never forget -- "Reason" is just one letter away from "Treason." Coincidence? Reasonable people would say it is, but America can't afford to take that chance."http://www.keepfearalive.com/
Stephen Colbert's notoriety for his lack of political correctness and bringing light to political problems through comedy is sure to draw even more people.
