I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!"

Who among us has not wanted to open their window and shout that at the
top of their lungs?

Seriously, who?

Because we're looking for those people. We're looking for the people
who think shouting is annoying, counterproductive, and terrible for
your throat; who feel that the loudest voices shouldn't be the only
ones that get heard; and who believe that the only time it's
appropriate to draw a Hitler mustache on someone is when that person
is actually Hitler. Or Charlie Chaplin in certain roles.

Are you one of those people? Excellent. Then we'd like you to join us
in Washington, DC on October 30 -- a date of no significance
whatsoever -- at the Daily Show's "Rally to Restore Sanity." Ours is a
rally for the people who've been too busy to go to rallies, who
actually have lives and families and jobs (or are looking for jobs) --
not so much the Silent Majority as the Busy Majority. If we had to sum
up the political view of our participants in a single sentence... we
couldn't. That's sort of the point.

Think of our event as Woodstock, but with the nudity and drugs
replaced by respectful disagreement; the Million Man March, only a lot
smaller, and a bit less of a sausage fest; or the Gathering of the
Juggalos, but instead of throwing our feces at Tila Tequila, we'll be
actively *not* throwing our feces at Tila Tequila. Join us in the
shadow of the Washington Monument. And bring your indoor voice. Or
don't. If you'd rather stay home, go to work, or drive your kids to
soccer practice... Actually, please come anyway. Ask the sitter if she
can stay a few extra hours, just this once. We'll make it worth your
while.

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.

So join The Rev. Sir Dr. Stephen T. Colbert, D.F.A. on October 30th
for the "March to Keep Fear Alive"™ in Washington DC. Pack an
overnight bag with five extra sets of underwear -- you're going to
need them. Because, to Restore Truthiness we must always... Shh!!!
What's that sound?! I think there's someone behind you! Run!
