Please let Lawrence talk......on MSNBC, Lawrence is the only man, AND THEY SHOULD LET HIM TALK.....

[a kennedy]

[PatSeg]

1. You noticed that too

[a kennedy]

2. Yes.......

[PatSeg]

7. It rather reminds me of back

when Brian Williams was still on MSNBC during an election. There was a whole lot of chatter, laughter, and crosstalk and Williams rarely a got a word in. I don't think he was comfortable with so much informality, though of course, being a true professional, he didn't show it.

[elleng]

3. We should 'let' Lawrence talk because he's the only man?

Haven't we been listening to men for a few years? (and hours?)

[a kennedy]

4. No, I have always enjoyed his perspective.....and he's the only male voice there, and he knows

his shit. JMHO.

[elleng]

10. He knows more than many, and when I'm not here (msnbc,)

I'm often @ The West Wing, much of which he wrote and produced.

[a kennedy]

12. Really?? The West Wing?? Seriously?? Loved that marathon last week. He wrote AND produced??

Loved that show, and did not know that about him. Wow.

[elleng]

19. YES, absolutely!

I have a set of the cds.

*From 1999 to 2006, O'Donnell was associated with the television drama The West Wing. During that time, he wrote 16 episodes. From 1999 to 2000, he was executive story editor for 12 episodes; in 2000, he was co-producer of five episodes; from 2000 to 2001, he was producer of 17 episodes; from 2003 to 2005, he was consulting producer for 44 episodes; and, from 2005 to 2006, he was executive producer for 22 episodes.[11] O'Donnell won the 2001 Emmy award for Outstanding Drama Series for The West Wing and was nominated for the 2006 Emmy for the same category.[12]'

and he played President Bartlet's father (in one episode.) *In addition to being a producer on The West Wing, O'Donnell also played President Josiah Bartlet's father in a flashback sequence of the episode "Two Cathedrals".[17]


HUGE talent.

[a kennedy]

23. OMG.....love Lawrence.....and he's a gawd now to me even more. Thanks for this.

[elleng]

26. YVW!

He's pretty 'gawd-like' to me, if anyone can be so characterized.

[Trueblue1968]

37. OMG.....love Lawrence.... Thanks for this.

[yorkster]

27. Just finished watching West Wing we recorded

over Thanjsgiving. We didn't realize it was going to stop at end of season 4. So guess we have to Subscribe to hbo max to get seasons 5 thru 7.
They should do a marathon over Christmas holidays.
When season4 ended Zoe Bartlett was still missing and the Pres. had invoked a temporary 25th amendment.

Then we tuned in to Georgia election for a bit of relaxation.

[elleng]

30. Oh right, Zoe going missing did a job on many!

and the heroic decision of President Bartlet, !!!!

[yorkster]

31. I had forgotten just how superb WW was...n/t

[DemocraticPatriot]

22. The numbers man is not a man ???

I'm watching MSNBC, and he's getting much of the time...

[DemocraticPatriot]

25. Maybe he feels like letting the ladies shine tonight!

"Ladies first"...

that was a saying, in my youth...

[dem4decades]

5. Please, just stop.

[PatSeg]

9. Not because he's a man

but all the laughing and chatter gets a bit annoying. I've seen it so many times during election coverage on MSNBC.

[northoftheborder]

6. I can't watch this,,,,,turned off....some talkers drive me crazy.

Thanks for reporting on here .

[Wounded Bear]

8. Having been the only man in a conference room full of women, I can sympathize...

Borderline sexist, sure, but men and women do committee situations differently.

[PatSeg]

11. Well, that depends on the men and women

As a woman, I would really like to see a more serious tone during election coverage.

[Maru Kitteh]

16. Borderline?

No. The border is somewhere behind you. Like, WAY behind you.

You should delete.

[Wounded Bear]

17. I'll take it under advisement...

[ZonkerHarris]

13. I though Kornaki was a man. Wow. Learn something new every day.

[DemocraticPatriot]

24. Yeah... lol

but I guess he's not part of "the table".....

[ZonkerHarris]

29. but has more airtime than anyone else tomight

[DemocraticPatriot]

32. and he's the man I want to see tonight-- I love the numbers

and things are looking good tonight for Warnock-- he's improved almost everywhere, while Walker has fallen...

(in spite of the momentary panics by some, when the totals have gone momentarily to Walker--
I suppose maybe they are not watching MSNBC??)

[Maru Kitteh]

14. What the hell does his penis have to do with anything?

Nothing personal, but I'm pretty sure he would disapprove of this OP.

[a kennedy]

15. HE IS THE ONLY MAN ON THE PANEL WITH 4 WOMEN.......I think he should get a word in edgewise eh??

[JudyM]

18. Is anyone cutting him off? I didn't notice that.

[Maru Kitteh]

20. NOT because of his penis. That's fucking sexist as fucking hell.

Sorry if that's not "lady-like" to say.

[DemocraticPatriot]

34. 'PENIS!!! BIG FUCKING ERECT PENIS!!!'

~ Born On The 4th Of July



Sorry, I could not resist a movie quote here. hahahahahaha

[milestogo]

35. So, as Walker claimed, it really is about the ERECTION.

[DemocraticPatriot]

36. Perhaps so--- but unfortunately for him, tonight it appears

that he 'will come up short' !

[milestogo]

21. I would be perfectly happy if only Rachel spoke.

But that's me.

[yorkster]

28. Rachel and O'Donnell would be good,too.

[elleng]

33. He's talking about the nuns who 'taught' him!!!

and where he's allowed to sit!!!

[Hekate]

38. He bloviates a lot, likes the sound of his own voice, & has an hour a night to himself...

I think he can deal with tonight.
