Crashing ‘The Daily Show’

Two surprise guests dropped by “The Daily Show” on Thursday. First came Stephen Colbert, whose apparent failure to score a permit will lead to a hybrid “Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear” on Oct. 30. And then Oprah Winfrey crashed the show to announce that she’s picking up the tab to send the studio audience to the Washington rally.

Robespierre, I’m with you. The money spent on this shindig could’ve gone a long way to find and support progressive candidates in this most recent election.

These people are a joke. Oprah and these guys make pretty good paychecks, instead of giving in to their brand of watered down b.s., we should instead follow the example of the French and Greek workers, instead of holding “rallies for sanity” we should be storming cities and kicking some oligarch ass.
