I love love love this man. [View all]

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.
