Always respect your opinions, but tell me Mr. O'Donnell doesn't communicate primarily through shouting and "loud talking"? I am so full of pundits and experts and show hosts who think the best way to impart information to the ignorant masses is to shout it and argue about it...

His name is Lawrence Francis O'Donnell, Jr. and although he has a long footprint - he has been around since the Clinton Administration, I first became aware of him when he recently guest hosted Keith Olbermann's MSNBC show. As of late, Mr. O'Donnell has been all over MSNBC, particularly "The Morning Joe" program and, to my admittedly biased ear, he is the only pragmatic and reasoned voice in popular media today. O'Donnell, an Emmy-Award winning producer and writer for the NBC series "West Wing," is renown for his aggressive debate style. He once shouted "liar!" over and over again at Swift Boat Spokesperson John O'Neill and for shouting at fellow panelist Cathy Seipp on the issue of public education and teachers. O'Donnell refers to himself as a "pragmatic European socialist" but more tellingly, "Morning Joe" Scarborough delights in frequently calling him "crazy" which informs me that O'Donnell must be the most honest white man in America. ~rave!
