1. They, I think are going to ratchet up the satire,
particularly since the RW morons like Beck have been going after Stewart. He's been doing subtle slags but I think they will escalate to a really big slam that even the confines of the Comedy channel won't contain. I can hardly wait.

:rofl:

5. What's up with this? If they're going to announce something,
I hope they do it soon, because the midterms are soon. Am I overthinking this?

6. It's a short week... and if they're going to have a rally in October, they'd better hurry up.
Maybe on Thursday?

7. If they've BOTH been dropping hints

They're definitely up to something--if not DC on 10/10, then something else.

For instance, they could do something in a theater, or set up joint coverage the way they did the '08 election coverage.

10. They should do a double rally on 10/2
with all the unions and progressive groups, they could really boost turnout.

13. Let's face it -- They're both secretly missing Bush
Comedy was so much easier with him in the White House. The jokes just seemed to write themselves.

Now they and their writers have to WORK for a living.
