Lawrence also made a very good summary of the shameful situation in the senate last night.

at one point, I thought he was going to shed tears.

reminded me a bit of the good old Olbermann rants, except I think O'Donnell keeps a bit more of his dignity and doesn't loose his head as much.

except after you watch the video you want to cry and tear someones eyes outs.

I liked the point that one day Dole will no longer be with us and those same GOP senators will say all of those nice things about Dole in the senate, but the day it counted, the Day ex-senator Dole needed their help, these posers screwed Dole with a simple NO.
