    I would think anyone with a video

    camera and a laptop might do the nation good, right now, if they had the time and wherewithal to jump in a car and head for the convention. It’s hard to dismiss all this as the work of “anarchists”, “weirdoes” and “drug addled Commie freaks” when you can see it up close on YouTube.

    Greenwald: you’re having much too much fun. I’m jealous. A suggestion, however. I’d donate to a fund to get you (and any hordes of helpers you might like to employ) better recording and video equipment (it doesn’t cost all that much) so that the world might see more. Blow the MSM away altogether.
