BECK VERSUS STEWART = HONESTY VERSUS SARCASM, CYNICISM AND ELITISM

Nate Beeler, Townhall

The Astute Blogger  "BECK'S RALLY WAS GREAT AND ITS VALUES GOOD. BY COUNTERING BECK, THESE LEFTIST COMEDIANS PROVE THAT THEY ARE SMALL AND BAD.
"NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM THEIR SARCASM, CYNICISM AND ELITISM.
"SARCASM, CYNICISM AND ELITISM CANNOT CREATE MORE BUSINESSES OR JOBS, NOR CAN IT DEFEND US FROM GLOBAL JIHAD OR CREEPING JIHAD."  Emphases in the original
The Rally today

A genuine rally of sanity and/or fear "Meanwhile, while the ralliers rallied, all the synagogue services and other usual events on Friday night and Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath, continued as planned despite an FBI warning.
"The intended victims, Jews, were not supposed to be angry because that's racism."  Ethel C. Fenig

Saturday Open Thread: Thank You Jon Stewart Edition  "Today, 10’s or 100’s of thousands of hip lefties will gather in Washington D.C. to nod approvingly-and ironically-at wry witticisms instead of, you know, walking precincts, cavassing voters or making get-out-the-vote calls. The kinds of things you usually do the weekend before the midterm elections. Yes, lefties, travel this weekend. Thank you, Jon Stewart. We hope your rally attracts millions."

Liberal groups tag along with Jon Stewart rally   "Abortion-rights supporters, marijuana fans, environmental activists, government watchdogs and the Democratic National Committee all will be cruising the Mall and spreading their messages in the hopes of winning hearts, minds and votes three days before Election Day."

The socialist brain of a liberal Democrat  "How do they fit all that angst, worry, outrage, hypocrisy, hand wringing, arrogance, strutting, condescension, ego, and moral blindness all in one head?"

With election outlook bleak, despairing young liberals look to Jon Stewart  I think that many liberals that will march in the ‘Rally to Restore Sanity’ realize that the Barack Obama era of ‘good feeling’ politics is over and as Republicans regain power, the only comforting fact is that they will fall back into the crosshairs of the Daily Show. After all, it was the cynical Jon Stewart view of politics that sustained many despairing liberals through the Bush era when their political stars failed to beat Bush in 2004 and failed to end the war in Iraq in 2006. If you are a liberal faced with these kinds of failures, what else is there to do but throw up your hands and laugh? Via Lucianne
