Schuster is the best news program on TV right now. 1600 PA Ave.
He has sort of a stiff style but he is with us! He just had Krugman on and was agreeing with everything he said about how stupid the GOP is (tax cuts). He also seems to have more news than KO and Rachel and he doesn't (so far) get to cute. (I don't like when Rachel does props like hats and megaphones. She comes off as an idiot. She shouldn't try so hard to be like Jon Stewart.)

Anyway, when Schuster first took over for Gregory he was horrid and I stopped watching for awhile. Glad I started watching again.

3. Another big fan here!

His "hypocrisy watch" is always awesome. Tore into Rove nicely today for claiming this stimulus is the largest peace-time spending bill ever, which comes only four months after he said that Obama was the first president to be elected into office while the country is at war.

4. I quake with laughter when Rachel does the split screens
so much so that I'm calling it aerobic exercise! But I agree that Schuster is excellent.

5. Schuster just asked this idiot if he was concerned about the
trillions spent on the Iraq war. He can't even answer the question.

8. He's talking about Africa!! What? Foreign affairs on the US news show?
Foreign affairs that's not mostly about us?

Get out. That's what BBC does, not the US.

He is refreshing and as someone said, informative.

He's going to keep count on how long Zimbabwae keeps Bennett (the good guy) in custody and called for some country to overthrow the illegal government there that is starving its people.

10. I've always liked Schuster
He's cute, in a kinda goofy way, but he always has his facts together and unlike someone like David Gregory, it doesn't let his guests get away with spouting the same old GOP talking points without challenging them.
