Dan Abrams - and MSNBC deserve new praise
Advertisements [?]
When Keith Olberman started to rock the boat sloshing ice water on the misdeeds of this disastrous administration we flocked to write and give him the support he richly deserved. He was the first, and so far the only one, to blaze a new reliable trail of courage in the media which had all but rolled over to play inanely dead.

Mr. Abrams may have recognized that imitation of a winner is a ticket worth pursuing, but I don't care about his motives. I care about his doing it.
I don't see a flocking by us to support him the way we did Keith and I think we might consider it. He is exposing and shining a light on specifics that have been ignored, and he is digging up and re-visiting unlawful behavior that has been shoveled under as new outrages keep surfacing. Go Dan!
We owe it all to Imus who lost his morning show and then got replaced by Scarborough whose night slot was taken over by Abrams. I like very much that Imus' racist slur brought about a widening of MSNBC's dialogue about the failure of Bush and Co.

Let's support Dan, and give him some of what made Keith all of a sudden earn 4 Million dollars.
Truth pays in the end.
