Evan Maloney at Brain Terminal is doing his part to help, ahem, bridge the divide, as it were, between Red and Blue America. He showed up at President Bush’s second inauguration with consolation prizes to hand out to disgruntled liberal protestors.

One thing's for sure, I'll no longer be able to sweepingly categorize leftists as nutcases. Oh, noooooooo. These guys have it all figured out, man. On Inauguration Day, Maloney interviewed a pretty diverse sample from the American left: People dressed up as Jesus and people dressed up as cats. People waving signs that equated Bush with Nazis, and people waving signs with vulgarities written on them. People who believe that the Republicans have conned the American people and people who believe that Bush supporters voted for him out of fear and closed-minded Christianity. Wow, what intellectual variety there is under the blanket of liberalism!


You can download the video at Maloney's website, or watch it live if you have broadband. It's worth it, if only to see which was the more popular consolation prize: The Hillary doll or the Michael Moore doll.
