    To be fair to John A.

    Leave aside Aravosis' praise of the Malkin-loving Kurtz as being so "fair."

    He was a rabid Republican at one time so he's still in recovery.

    "Aravosis is a lawyer and worked on Capitol Hill as a foreign policy advisor for Ted Stevens, a right-wing Republican senator in the late 1980s and early 1990s before becoming a Democratic activist."

    It does make you wonder, about the point in continuing to use the of the left/right designation as anything more than a gauge on economic or cultural differences. I get the sense that Olbermann's transformation from essentially apolitical to his outspoken interest in politics is similar to that of many people who read this blog, and perhaps the person who writes it.

    "Keith Olbermann has responded to accusations of bias by saying, "I'm not a liberal, I'm an American."
