Comedians Stephen Colbert and John Stewart announced a merging of their rallies last night. The two rallies which were scheduled to take place at the National Mall Oct. 30 will now be combined as the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear.
The comedians say the merging is due to Colbert’s failure to get in a permit application. However, as reported earlier by Politico, Comedy Central only ever submitted one permit application for the two rallies, so it is possible that the combination has always been planned.
