Last night's Rachel Maddow Show is amongst the best.

If you have not seen Rachel at her best, this is it.

Here's a link to a previous thread with the video:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1017274685

I am sorry that I am finding problems finding an embedable YouTube on this, but you will find in the OP at the link above.

This is what progressive journalism looks like, and nobody does it better than Rachel, especially in this instance. We've had a helluva week, and Rachel breaks it down so damned well of how important this week is.

My response in the linked thread has her interview with the lawyer who argued the case and whose efforts were prominent in this awesome victory for freedom and justice.

Please click through and see how it is done.

As always, my best regards.

PS, this is a must see.

on edit: minor grammar issue.

And thank you for your contribution to my thread.

It is difficult to do these things from the midst of a national forest where there is no broadband Internet whatsoever and where cellular network limits and bandwidth restricts one.

My regards.

When Obama broke into song, it was an amazing moment, one for the history books.

My best to you.

What a national treasure this woman is. May her career at MSNBC go from strength to strength.
