I used to be not quite sure about him, but his level of sarcasm gives me life.

I feel exactly the same way about him. I live for it, too. It took me awhile to recognize his overall quality, one that's impossible to imitate.

Those moments make him one of the best anchors on television.

Lawrence O'Donnell is the only other anchor who comes close, because of that twinkle in his eye, when he's sarcastic.

These two raise sarcasm to the level of rhetoric.

The work of spreading focus and consciousness is the best of America. I hope you get to work closer to the Biden world once it takes off in Washington.
