MSNBC Anchor: '"Socialist" Is Becoming the New N-word

MSNBC's O'Donnell Performs Possibly the Worst Interview in History
Is it a requirement at MSNBC that program hosts interrupt conservative guests whenever possible thereby preventing anyone other than liberals to make a point?Such certainly appeared to be the case Thursday evening when Lawrence O'Donnell filled in on "The Ed Show" and treated his guest, Peter Schiff, more poorly and unprofessionally than just about anything I've ever witnessed.It was so bad that…
