Wouldn't it be nice if we could restore sanity? It all depends on whether we still have enough sanity to restore. I'm a little worried that there isn't enough left to go around. I think we've squandered it over the last 10 years. When was Fox News founded? Or should we trace its loss all the way back to the Reagan administration?

Do you have a picture of the "I am a radicalized moderate and I'm as mad as heck" one?
I wish I did! Unfortunately I wasn't there; I was just watching it on C-span. Probably someone on the Internet has one. YouTube?
I was just wondering. See, my dad had that poster, and apparently the quote went viral, and we're trying to figure out if it was only him. So, was the poster an obnoxious neon yellow with some pink and some black lettering?
My son (who has a much better memory than either my husband or myself) doesn't think so, but my husband thinks it might have been your dad's sign. How's that for completely unhelpful?
I think they may have both seen the same sign in different light, or just not be agreeing on the colors, which happens all the time. Darn, I really want to see the sign again. Maybe C-span will replay it?
So cool that your dad's poster has gone viral--it was definitely my favorite one--that and "go vote yourself."

Hi, apparently you've been tweeting with my daughter. Anyway, I'm the guy with the radicalized moderate poster at the Sanity Rally. We have been astonished at the widespread publicity of the poster; friends have told me they saw it on C-Span or heard it quoted on NPR. At least a dozen people took my photo at the rally, one of them ended up on the internet here:

BTW, some enterprising on-line capitalist (not me!) apparently is offering T-shirt copies of the poster. I feel like Arlo Guthrie in Alice's Restaurant (it's a movement!)
Anyway, I'm glad you liked it! It was a great experience, a beautiful day full of excited & happy people.
Regards,
Tom Jordan
Tom, Yours was my favorite poster there, so I'm not surprised so many others liked it. T-shirts too--you're famous now!
