9. I wanted to laugh, but knew if Rachel found him, he was someone worth listening to.
"Don't judge a book by its cover" as my mom always said.. Now, I want to read the book. I like his take on Obama.. I feel similar about him.. and if I was in the same spot, would most likely do the same thing.. You know a something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.. A perfect marriage.. Obama may make a perfect spouse to America.. Unlike Bush who treated her more like an abuser.

And I like what he has to say. Especially about Obama having what it takes to get the job done.

11. The world is a fascinating place. Everyone has something to offer.
I've got areas where I am very bright, and others where I'm very slow.

Having known many phd's, I can say that some of these people are brilliant, yet can hardly tie their shoes.


We need to value everyone. I'm thinking Bush, and I"m coming up with a blank. But I'm sure there's something there. He is probably good at screwing things up. There must be a place for people like that. Certainly not leadership positions.

10. He is highly intellectual. I enjoyed how he put Rachel to shame
for suggesting that maybe Obama is not qualified enough after all. She is getting on my last nerve lately.

17. I would love to listen to a conversation between Barack and him..
.... two smart guys, obviously with a lot in common. What a unique perspective they have on the world.

18. What a breathe of fresh air. Actual analysis without the partisan negativity.
Thank you. Now I hope rachel will shut up about so many Clintonites in the Obama administration.

19. Rachel often mixes obvious lefty group think with another way of looking at it.
Her role is to ask those questions, and bring the progressive-lib talking points into practical reality.

12. If you haven't read Blink...
you really should check it out. It's a fascinating discussion of the way we humans operate.
