My favorites: “Save Ferris” “The Mad-Hatter wants his tea party back” (there were actually several good ones with this theme) 🙂 ---

Oh my god, **Skammer** , I love your face. I came with three signs in mind, and you posted two of them. Another fav: “I think, therefore I am not Glenn Beck.” ---

At the Rally, don’t know if this one got any photos: “Fox News is my comedy channel” Flip side: “Comedy Central is my news channel” ---

> [@ashenRiot](#): > > “The Mad-Hatter wants his tea party back” (there were actually several good ones with this theme) How about the couple dressed as Hatter and Alice? I don’t even recall if they had a sign–they didn’t need one. ---

I’m still going through them, but my favorite so far is the petite young lady in the hijab with the sign that reads, “I scare Juan Williams at airports.” ---

> [@Dr.Love](#): > > [Video of that sign](http://gregmankiw.blogspot.com/2010/11/is-obama-keynesian.html) I’m also in the don’t-know-whether-to-laugh-or-cry category on this. :eek: ---

I only saw it on tv, but I loved “Birthers for Hawaii Statehood” There was also a person with a sign that was just a big arrow pointing down, which must have made them easy to spot when they watched later on the dvr. ---

Oh, I would pay good money to see a follow-up video of that woman going on and on about the Keynesian sign, that “people aren’t stupid”, when it gets explained to her. Her kids are going to show that video every Christmas from now on… ---

The question remains unanswered: _Is_ Obama a Keynesian? Some more: “Make Awkward Sexual Advances Not War” Guy in soldier costume: “Repeal the Third Amendment!” “Congress should do stuff” “I wasn’t busy today” And this one: [http://i.huffpost.com/gadgets/slideshows/12644/slide\_12644\_169775\_large.jpg?1288793780733](http://i.huffpost.com/gadgets/slideshows/12644/slide_12644_169775_large.jpg?1288793780733) ---

[I’m fond of Dave Willis’s contribution.](http://www.shortpacked.com/2010/blog/the-rally-to-restore-sanity-andor-fear/attachment/olympus-digital-camera-91/) Relatively subtle ‘stop with the Nazi comparisons!’ sign. ---
