Stewart restores sanity, showering daily is so last year, and scientists grow a mini liver
If it seems to you like lately American politics are a bit of a joke, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's Rally to Restore Sanity this past weekend likely did little to remedy the situation. The Comedy Central mock-news anchors hosted the Washington D.C. rally this past Saturday in an effort to restore some sanity to the American political system and the media that covers it. The event was part comedy shtick, part rock concert, and part serious bipartisan plea for reason in the face of the extremist ideologies that are dividing the country. Various news sources estimated the crowd at around 200,000, thought Colbert was more generous, claiming via Twitter that it was somewhere in the ballpark of “six billion.” Check out an amazing gallery of the many creative and hilarious homemade rally signs here.
