Ok - I Have A Full-On Mancrush On Lawrence O'Donnell (Video)...
This is like the one of the mostest awesomest news-y videos I've seen in a looooong time.

"Hasn't anyone told him that only right wing blowhards are allowed to do that? Liberals are supposed to be polite and allow these ppeople to spew lies and then politely ask another question.

O'Donnell defiles the sacred memory of Tim "the Monsignor" Russert by behaving this way. I'm afraid Roger Ailes is going to have to intervene if this keeps up."

6. I'll share. Here's a vintage 2004 interview smack down with Pat Buchannan
You've got to scroll down to the "lesbian part".

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6273392

Thanks to an earlier post: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6318911#6319730

Looking for the video of this, but here's a fun bit of the transcript.

Here's O'Donnell's lines isolated. It had to be a hoot of an interview.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

O‘DONNELL: Listen—look, strategically it may be that the calculation is the Bush supporters have this large segment that hate lesbians. And by using the word lesbian, lesbian haters, that might hurt the Bush vote. That may be true.

O‘DONNELL: This all assumes that the word lesbian is a bad word, doesn‘t it?

O‘DONNELL: Do you think lesbian‘s a bad word?

O‘DONNELL: Did he call her a thief? What if he said Mary Cheney is a thief? That‘s negative.

(big part omitted)

JEFFREY: So they calculate it to make the personal life of the vice president an issue in their campaign.

O‘DONNELL: If they calculate it, it‘s because they know that you think lesbian is a bad word and connotes evil behavior.

O‘DONNELL: You do, don‘t you?

BUCHANAN: Hold it.

O‘DONNELL: You think lesbian is a bad word, and it‘s evil behavior to engage in lesbian sex, don‘t you, Terry?

JEFFREY: You know what‘s interesting is

O‘DONNELL: It‘s evil behavior.

JEFFREY: Can I answer your question?

O‘DONNELL: Mary Cheney behaves evilly to you.

JEFFREY: Let me answer your question.

JEFFREY: My religion teaches me, as the Bible says, and I believe it‘s consistent with natural law, that homosexual conduct is, in fact, immoral.

O‘DONNELL: You heard it right here. Terry Jeffrey says Mary Cheney is immoral.

JEFFREY: No, I did not say that. I did not say that.

O‘DONNELL: She engages in lesbian sex.

JEFFREY: Let me defend myself

JEFFREY: How do you know that, Lawrence? Have you talked to her about her personal life?

JEFFREY: That is an outrage.

O‘DONNELL: If we are prepared to imagine that John Kerry deliberately planned this, I am prepared to imagine that Mary Cheney, who says she is a lesbian and lives with a lesbian, has lesbian sex with the woman she lives with and is, therefore, by your lights, immoral.

BUCHANAN: Let‘s go. Let‘s go. I happen to agree with Terry in terms...

O‘DONNELL: Lesbian sex is evil.

O‘DONNELL: But I grew out of that, Pat. Lesbian sex is fine by me.

O‘DONNELL: I absolutely grew out of the notion that lesbian sex is immoral.

O‘DONNELL: Anyone who wants to have lesbian sex, I cheer you on.

O‘DONNELL: And it should be legal. And you should be able to put rings on each other‘s fingers.

O‘DONNELL: And you should be able to take pictures and invite your family and invite Terry to your lesbian wedding. You should be able to do it all.

O‘DONNELL: I think that‘s a win for Kerry. Bush should be talking about something—the campaign should be about something other than lesbian sex.

O‘DONNELL: If we have anything to say about it, we‘re going all lesbian all next week.

:rofl:
