Add another nonsense label

[SHRED]

Jonathan Alter on The Last Word tonight called Bernie's message a "broken record" as if all Bernie talks about is economic inequality.

I guess Alter doesn't know how to listen very well.

1. Alter has told outright lies. Meanwhile, his website is supposed to be leftist.

2. A locked groove can be good.

3. Wait!! Lawrence is feeling the Bern. He's trying to hide it, but I don't think he can anymore.

It's there. He's starting to bern.

He even had Frances Fox Piven on tonite for his last word.

He's feeling it

4. I've thought that for a while and am glad that you said it jillan.

Months ago, on one of his shows, he was talking about Bernie and said something like: "those of us who consider (or call) ourselves Social Democrats..". I thought that he was definitely speaking of or including himself as one. And then tonight, his interview with Ms Piven, well, he seemed to have much respect for her and her ideology. Oh yeah, he's feeling the Bern.

5. He has for a long time called himself a Socialist.

[jillan]

7. Yes - I remember when he first started he said he was a socialist.

I enjoy his show, more than Rachel's. He's more informative.

6. Even tonite with that interview with Jonathan Alter, I kinda felt that Lawrence was trying to turn

the conversation around to how Bernie can win.

Maybe it's just me and a little bit of Bernie selective hearing? But one thing he does is talk about Bernie. Which is more than Chris Hayes and Rachel. They may mention Bernie in passing but Lawrence will talk about him.

Yay! We have Lawrence and Thom Hartmann on our side - it's something

[Marie Marie]

8. I can also remember that very early in the campaign, long before Bernie began making strides,

Lawrence seeming a little less than pleased with Hillary as the presumptive nominee.

[jillan]

9. Interesting. I did not know that.

[Marie Marie]

11. I could be wrong - just a little something that I thought was picking up on.

But I agree about his show. I've always liked his perspective on the inner workings of politics rather than just opinion or talking points. He has "talked me down" many times by explaining either the legality or policies of government. I also get the feeling that he does not cower to ratings or management - like if his show was taken away tomorrow, he would be off to something else with no regrets. When all the pundits are together talking about debates or elections or whatever, he never grandstands, or tries to out talk the others, but when he does say something - it is always different and informative.

10. Lawrence is a rather conflicted Socialist.

[SHRED]

12. I'll look for that

I'll check his show out more often.

13. BOYCOTT MSNBC!
