    LSE.

    I agree with his views and I'm very sympathetic to his line of thinking. But he comes across as a blowhard to me and I have a hard time not to giggle. Oh well just the way it is I don't want to be guilty of type prejudice >_<. He VI's as LSE too I think.

    your response suggests that you're extremely guilty of type prejudice, if i'm understanding that concept correctly.

    Ok, explain why he isn't LSE instead then. I am eager to bow to your insight and wisdom (that was bad sarcasm )

    EDIT: Actually maybe LSI. (This is just V.I. and having watched two of the posted videos and knowing nothing about him.)
    "How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."

    Hmm, maybe he is beta, but he looks extraverted to me. He is the spitting image of a guy I know, who works as a bank director, I don't see him often but get along with well when I do (he is part of my fishing buddy gang). I've only really read texts by Olbermann before, and they have seen a bit over the top on the rhetoric to me. But he seems genuinely offended by what Bush is doing to America. I think he is a traditionalist and in some ways a conservative. He was not very successful as an anchor before he found his niche with his current show, which is more or less Bush bashing. But it seems genuinely felt by Olbermann.

    He was actually quite successful on ESPN back in the early 90's, I'd say at the time he was the best sportscaster on that channel. I remember turning on sportscenter every morning and watching him.

    Just watched his show... This is one of those cases where I can't tell fo sho... ENTp is my best (admittedly) guess, based on what I've seen... (Compare with, for example, Bill Maher.) Any other ideas about Olbermann's type?

    niffweed has fallen asleep. Perhaps it's time for him to wake up and do what he said he 'd do. He does this a lot.
