    What a joke. Someone SHOULD protest the protestors; for being teats on the proverbial bull. Schmucks.

    I think the "Enjoy Capitalism" tees work better as leftist irony, too. Ideally, irony raised to the third power - leftists being ironic by wearing a shirt that rightists produced as a takeoff on leftist takeoffs of corporate logos on clothing.

    Dude, it's that guy from the Love Boat. Yeah, he's cool.

    Are you being sarcastic?

    I don't know!!!!

    Brian Kieffer, a guest contributor to Radley Balko's The Agitator, has another report on this event here. Brooke is also another guest contributor there; congrats on getting her piece into The Spectator. When can we expect Julian's report?

    At this point in history, is there anything more insignificant than a demonstration in Washington DC?
