crazy, but he's definitely self-righteous. It seems like he's rarely satisfied no matter what Obama or the Dems do in spite of GOP obstruction, and it didn't sit well with me in 2012 on his CurrentTV show when he called the Libertarian Gary Johnson a "true progressive". It sounded like a cheap jab at Obama. I don't rely on news from him. I sometimes watch MSNBC, but I try to find more accurate and less slanted news articles online. BBC has been reliable for international news, and I liked watching C-SPAN during the Democratic Convention.
