So fascinating, so not surprising ... that in the days before the RNC the homes being raided are media crews. What do they have planned that they can't have iWitness documenting, is what I want to know. Except that I already know, and so do you. In 1999 ...
Irony might not be the right word, but I'm watching choppy video of activists in St. Paul navigating commando raids on houses they're staying in and then down on the right hand side of the screen, an ad for Changing the Present ... "Your Wedding Registry can make the ...
