Kristinn did an excellent job. The other guy, Brian, was essentially a robot, spouting the mantra of the day. Brian didn't impress the Texas caller who rightfully pointed out the anger in Brian's voice.

Watching the cool and focused Kristinn today reminded me of the contrast between Lawrence Kudlow and his TV partner Jim (I forget his last name). Kudlow is factual and cool...Jim is so emotional that he is unintelligible. I fully expect one night to see Jim be propelled out of his chair and crash into a wall. CNBC needs to keep restraints on him, the kind they use in psychiastric hospitals.

Police 'Intelligence' Says Protestors and Reporters May be Dangerous

A new internal memo from the Washington, D.C. Police Department warns police that protestors this weekend might use violence and pipe bombs, and specifically tells police to be alert for persons who are photographing, videotapping or taking notes, the D.C. Independent Media Center has learned.

The document, obtained this morning by the Independent Media Center, paints protestors and media producers alike as suspicious and potentially dangerous.

"It is possible that some of the radical groups that are involved may stage so-called 'probing' incidents between now and the actual event," the memo reads. "Such incidents are intended to test police, fire and EMS response. Such incidents may include vandalism, pipe bombings, or 'Molotov cocktails.'"

Specifically, police are told to be alert for "suspicious" people who are gathering information about police activities or calling police on the phone "posing" as reporters. The memo recommends that police should photograph people on the streets who are photographing, videotaping or taking notes.

The memo paints a negative image of protestors and independent reporters, and was issued a day before rank and file officers take to the streets to work during the demonstrations. [Full Story]

I just watched the segment on the internet. All I can say is that the moderator did a terrible job. Was he so short on time that he wouldn't let anyone answer correctly? Who screens the calls. No balance at all. Usually I am not upset with CSPAN's Washington Journal. But this was a poor excuse of a show.
