This is, without a doubt, the greatest video that will ever appear on VideoSift.

Having Googled this guy's name, it turns out he's a stand-up comedian:

*discard

Self-discarding this video (discard called by original submitter theo47)

Soooo, it's so good you had to discard it? I'm lost.

*save

For the john tesh fans of the world.

That guy is like a hemorrhaging Lewis Black.

Saving this video from queue deletion, sending it to the top of the queue for one more try. Originally submitted on Wednesday 14th February 2007 (save called by gold star member phelixian)

Dupe. Was discarded when this one was submitted....

Mark Sidran was actually the Seattle City Attorney at the time of the WTO protests of 1999. If I remember correctly he was a mayoral candidate as well a few years back. He was definitely a 'forgetting' imbecile.

LOL

I don't think I've ever heard someone closely associate Ayn Rand with Rush Limbaugh before.

How would you like to follow that guy?

I'm so happy he called out Ayn Rand. If she came around today she'd be editorializing on Fox News.

I guess this is considered clever, edgy stuff in Seattle. *yawn*

*promote

Promoting this video back to the front page; last published Wednesday, February 14th, 2007 6:38pm PST - promote requested by kulpims.

Why don't you tell us how you really feel?
