Next up and joining me now, Andrew Sullivan.

He's the editor and writer of one of the few essential things you must read weekly, The Weekly Dish, aptly named, and the author of two great works, Virtually Normal and The Conservative Soul.

I'm a fan of irony, so I'm going to waste some of my precious time with Andrew telling you that I would like him here for 12 hours because...

There's almost nothing that occurs that I don't want to discuss with Andrew Sullivan or hear what he thinks.

And I was on his show recently, and I said this.

I'll say a version of it now.

He's singular.

No one has done what he's done for so long and so well, which is to think about and write about and talk about America.

and the world in a way that is done with rigor and creativity and humor and intellect and fairness and a profound understanding of the human condition.
