I was offline for most of the afternoon and early evening — and just learned that the nutroots are claiming that the screenshot of the 9/12 march in D.C. that I posted — taken from a livecam of the event that I linked to here— is somehow “fake.”

Guess the 9/11-was-an-inside jobbers are still that much in denial.
Unbelievable.
Yes, this is real:
