Could it be a reference to her famous suggestion that we should use one square of toilet paper?

Thanks to those who are posting. I can’t bear to watch it myself.

NY Times reporter Brian Stelter on Twitter:

Publicly, Parks Service doesn't estimate crowds. Privately, it has told Viacom there are "well over 200,000" people at the rally, exec says.

So I wonder if the sign is a show of support for Sheryl’s TP advice or mocking it?

Frearzilla. This is the stoopidest event I have ever witnessed. Seriously.

I’m thinking of all the people over the years who told me these two guys were funny. They’re getting laughs by talking about Star Trek.

R2-D2 is one of the guests. He’s now beeping a message to the crowd, like when he makes a PSA to kids about brushing after meals.

This is surreally awful.

“Thanks to those who are posting. I can’t bear to watch it myself.”

I can’t believe I’m watching it, but I’m curious because the Stewart/Colbert fans have been talking about this for weeks. I just took aspirin for a headache.

I love the fact that their little ‘fear segment’ comes on the heels of yesteday’s news.

Who knew the October Surprise would be how lame our opponents were?

It’s about as entertaining as watching paint dry.

I see a puppet—the trademark of the lefty loser rally.

Live blog from DC's TBD:

1:39: Larimer: Cops are kicking people off Porta Potties. Billie Madley tells Larimer that the cops weren't as bad as the people yelling at her because she was blocking their view. They were "that kind of yelling white people," Madley says. They were loud. They were "snarling like one of those rabid dogs."

"Almost like tea party people, really irate," she says. Larimer asked her if riding the plastic pony was OK, she said there was "some aroma" but her only regret was getting down when the cop came. She felt like an idiot for doing that.

Christian Hart was asked by police to get down but did not. Larimer asked if people using the Porta Potty complained about him being atop them. No, he says. "They were concerned if I was gonna fall on top of them."

Why are you surprised? I’m surprised they couldn’t turnout more with a free show with celebrities in attendance.

I have a feeling all this is going to do is get more people to the polls to vote Republican on Tuesday, seeing all these boobs out there.

I’m assuming most of this ad-lib, that’s why it’s a flop.

Does anyone remember how funny Chevy Chase was in movies? Then they gave him his own talk show, and it was pitiful to watch him struggle to interview guests. He didn’t get one laugh, and he was cancelled after a few shows. He had to be humiliated.

God this is pretty stupid. I just turned it on. I’ll bet the whiff of the wacky weed is probably in the air...always was everytime I’ve gone to a “free concert.”

I’m seeing a lot of young people in the crowd. Pretty sad and pathetic. Last week at my local Tea Party meeting they lamented how few young people were there (I’m 36 and I was probably the youngest person there). Sigh.

I like this one

1:43: People are abandoning the Mall en masse, report Judkis and Cooper. “Mass exodus,” says Judkis, who reckons many people are heading to bars near Union Station.
