Hard hitting vid.

The Newsroom started out great, but Sorkin had to be Sorkin at the end of the day and ruin it.

I think part of the reason that America isn't the greatest (in many, many ways it still is) is because a lot of people don't want us to be. There's a mixture of inflexibility (Republicans) and impracticality (Democrats).

We have some sort of stupid notion in this country that we must tie one hand behind our back in order to let other people compete and then beat us. It's as if we feel bad for having been the best. It's a pathetic mentality and one that is made manifest in the political thinking of the Democratic Party.
