2. I like LO'D... I miss Keith, but I think LO'D keeps the pressure on...
He takes no shit, and pulls no punches.

13. I think alot of RWers think they can "handle" LO because he's somewhat
an "insider," having served as Chief of Staff to Daniel Patrick Moynihan...

Wrong O.... LO takes no prisoners.

4. He suffers no fools...
and has been around the block enough to know how to handle the overt liars and spinners. Condi is both.

5. Bad mofo for going after that one.
Wish we could do it for real, in a court, for war crimes.

6. He treated Condi better than Faux treats Dem guests
The Righties simply are not accustomed to people challenging them on anything. Condi and her masters Darth Cheney and * have a lot to answer for their crimes against America and the world. More journalists need some of O'Donnell's gumption.

24. Our news media could take lessons on how to conduct interviews.
No questions, like "are you still playing piano, Condi?". "Do you still keep in touch with George, Condi?" "tell us you're most memorable moment in the WH." He actually asked tough questions and tougher follow-ups. And she still can't answer the questions without dragging out every red herring and an army of straw men. She's no better than Cheney, just has a sweeter voice and smile.

27. CHECK!1 In the he - came - off- as- a- dick thread, I said
just the opposite: He wouldn't let her stay inside her bubble: The bubble-people (her, Shrub, CHEENEE, Rums, et al.) are used to authoritarian control, of never being challenged, and never being pinned with hard questions or having their evasions followed up on.

From the start of Campaign 2000 it was decreed that CUTE ignorant baby Shrub MUST NOT be gone after by mean GORE, despite that Shrub was allowed free rein to TAWK TUFF against one and all.

My reaction was totally 180 to the O.P. (Larry-the-dick thread) : I was thinking, her game of being the polite, classy, seductively chaste girl-woman has finally crashed into a brick wall named Lawrence O'DONNELL.

29. Just sent out an email
to alert everyone on my list to his rerun, just in case.

Condi was, well --- I got to attend a talk by Angela Davis a couple weeks back. Angela Davis told the truth.

41. I do, but even then, I respect where he's coming from
He was absolutely against removing Terri Schiavo's feeding tube.

But I respected that he was coming from the perspective of being the father of daughters, and imagining himself battling with a son-in-law who he suspected of not having the best interest of his "little girl" at heart.

He doesn't let them get away with anything. Glad to see the appreciation thread. When Keith comes back on I will have to watch one and tape one.
