ParticipantLucky for you that you are already there. I really want to go–but work and family demands will not allow. There is a satellite rally in LA that is a possibility.
As for the bus—I did 24 hours on a bus once for spring training in college (from NYC to Tampa, FL). NEVER AGAIN.

ParticipantAnd unfortunately, there goes the whole point of intelligent discourse. When people can’t converse and exchange ideas–ideas that may be different from those that you initially believe in–how will we ever learn anything new? So the “believers” go around with their own small minds, hedged in by fear, looking for confirmation of what they already know. There’s no hope of ever talking any sense into them.
By contrast, I find a small kernel of the “tea party agenda” interesting but have issues with it’s implementation (well, I have lots of issues with their beliefs, but trying to throw them a bone here). I personally am open to any intelligent argument and have often changed how I think about things if I hear the ring of truth, reasonableness, logic and sanity. I’m a free thinker like that.
So, anyone going to the Stewart/Colbert rally in DC?
