This is supposedly footage of a reporter struggling to file a story from a G.O.P. party back in the ’80s, and while I can’t vouch for the veracity of that premise, I did take immense delight in the reporter’s growing frustration at the noise and people surrounding him. It’s like a precursor of Bill O’Reilly’s famous “We’ll do it live!” outburst, but with a snazzy beard like Dr. Benton Quest. More news people need to have beards besides Wolf Blitzer. Maybe Anderson Cooper should get one — er, grow one. Put those rumors to rest. You know, the rumors that he can’t grow a beard.

The pay off at the end (:33 mark) is well worth watching this.
Oh, those Young Republicans. So full of vim.
I kept expecting someone to chime in and yell, “YOU SILLY ASS PERSON!”
When that woman shouts behind him and ruins his shot, he turns around with such rage in his body language I really thought he was going to attack her.
The only thing this lacks is the 4/5/6 train Mariachi band.
I bet it would be super easy to Convention crash and get laid, especially for a GOP party, not that you would want to at a Democratic celebration.
