Sometimes people do see the light all of a sudden. But it doesn't hurt to consider his remarks with skepticism.

I was never really a right wing nut, but I did consider myself a conservative. Right around the time I was graduating form college, I got this sinking feeling that I had been wrong all along. I'd taken a sociology class and an anthropology class, and the theories I was exposed to in those classes had planted some seeds. The one weekend, I was in place playing Rush Limbaugh on the radio. And then I realized that not only did I not like this guy's attitude, but I disagreed with everything he said. I was disgusted. Almost overnight, my political positions changed dramatically.

My parents were kind of shocked.

Bannon is an ASSHOLE! His modus operandi is SCORCH EARTH and SCREW EVERYONE!
My observations and information gathered over the course of the past year and a half lead me to conclude that he has issues with our country, our government, and everyone around him. Indications of a bitter alcoholic old white man with a personal vendetta to settle. Everything out of his mouth is SHIT!

He's been on MSNBC for well over a year, at least. I know that I've been wondering about him for some time, so I don't blame you. Like that conservative radio host who appears so benign and is on MSNBC all the time, Charlie what's his face. I take them with a grain. But this guy seems to know the Breitbart menagerie enough to comment on their hatefulness.
