If you watch BIG LOVE you may have seen Lawrence O'Donnell who plays Bill Paxton's character Bill Hendrickson's lawyer, Lee Hatcher. He was an Emmy winning producer and writer of NBC’s The West Wing. In the 90's he was the Democratic Chief of Staff of the United States Senate Committee on Finance from 1993 through 1995 and in 1992, was Chief of Staff of the United States Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. You can see him now as a regular commentator on MSNBC or read him on HuffingtonPost.
Bless his heart, he makes conservatives crazy.
Last week on the McLaughlin Group after the Romney Religious Speech O'Donnell put Romney's speech in its true perspective. This link comes from a right-wing site that hates liberals. Screw them.
O'Donnell "This was the worst political speech of my lifetime. Because this man stood there and said to you "this is the faith of my fathers." And you, and none of these commentators who liked this speech realized that the faith of his fathers is a racist faith. As of 1978 it was an officially racist faith, and for political convenience in 1978 it switched. And it said "OK, black people can be in this church." He believes, if he believes the faith of his fathers, that black people are black because in heaven they turned away from God, in this demented, Scientology-like notion of what was going on in heaven before the creation of the earth." He also said that Mitt Romney's great grandfather had five wives.
