I love love love this man.
Eugene Robinson
Every time he appears on the MSNBC shows to talk about his latest article, or to give his opinion and insight into what's happening in DC and around the world, it is an utter treat. He is a pleasure to listen to because he is so intelligent, and doesn't he doesn't carry water for anyone. And I love the constant grin with which he delivers every line. Eugene is an editorialist for the Washington Post. Thanks for being so smart and cool, Mr. Robinson. Recent article written by Robinson: http://www.postbulletin.com/news/stories/display.php?id=1515258 http://www.floridatoday.com/article/20121111/OPINION04/311110007/Eugene-Robinson-new-America-speaks http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/robinson-and-readers-on-next-gop-moves/2012/11/16/28ead7bc-3026-11e2-ac4a-33b8b41fb531_blog.html Give a shout-out if you love Eugene too!

Did you know he wrote a book about going to Cuba? It was great and has insights into the mind of a younger Eugene, I especially remember his writing about these amazing female singers, I'd seen them perform as well but Eugene saw so much more

He's wise, warm, and has a beautiful voice. He's also one helluva journalist (Pulitzer Prize winner) with incredible depth and insight, and a great sense of humor to boot.
