This is pretty funny - but also a bit unfair considering his sly pronunciation of "Keynesian" (I've always heard "CANE-see-an").

If you've never taken macroeconomics, or you don't keep up with business news, chances are you've never heard of Keynes. (I'm just trying to be fair.)

This shows how really well informed the 'sanity' crowd was.

And yes, he is! LOL


I said I was trying to be fair, b50m.

It really doesn't surprise me because too many people in this country just don't care and, therefore, don't want to pay attention to what's going on. They know more about the characters on Grey's Anatomy (is that the name of it?) than the characters in Washington, D.C. Sad.
You were being fair.

It just shows that most of the ones at the rally went because Jon Stewart was there, not because they are involved in politics.

I have watched Jay Leno do his 'man on the street', and people cannot recognize Joe Biden or John McCain but can name all the pop stars.

Sad to think these people vote.
I have posted enough You Tube videos of tea party rallies to counter anything seen at Jon Stewart rally. of course if you want some more Cool I could always put up some of Glenn Becks 9/12 rally greatest hits.
Here's one:

And of course there is this gem from Glenn Becks Restoring Honor rally: the woman with the flag at 0:52 is really b50m I think:

THESE are examples of the intelligence level of the crowd that elected the Republican majority in Congress.

Rocky... whatever!

What is funny is:
1. The woman who kept asking, "Are you saying he's not American? He gave you proof." Oh really. I must've missed that. I think he still has not shown his official birth certificate.

2. The young guy who said he was born in Hawaii. Again, birth certificate?

3. The 2nd young man who said, "What does it matter? It's really not relevant to his presidency." Oh really? I do believe that is a prerequesite - you must be a natural-born citizen. Hmmm... interesting!

4. Then the (same) woman who said in November the people will not "buy this". Uh, wrong!

I agree, B50. The "sanity" crowd was well informed.
