And I agree that we liberals are the compassionate ones. Lawrence is a great example.

And immediately searched to see if I could find this somewhere. I was wondering who would have what to say after the news came out, and Lawrence was really the best, made me proud to be a fellow liberal, too.

I'm hoping that more people will see it, definitely worth it. I was surprised that it hadn't been posted, but I could only find it on MSNBC when I posted it.

The Last Word segment on Andrew Breitbart's untimely death was handled with such dignity and compassion by Lawrence, Goldie & Toure. It does make you proud to be a liberal!!
