Just watched Olbermann for the first time since his father died. He hasn’t changed. His venom is just as misogynistic, barry still walks on water and every nonbarryfan is a racist. He is still ranting about gotcha trivia. He is still fixated on Sarah Palin, who has absolutely no interest in running for president. And he still has to find 3 persons who he deems worse than him so he can make it through the day.
What did he learn about life after watching his parents die? About himself?
How can someone go through what he has and come out unchanged?
How can someone watch a parent suffer like his father did and not realize the power and importance of kindness?
