MSNBC just announced that Rachel Maddow is getting her own cable show. This is proof that even in today's disgusting, nepotistic and cutthroat media world - a world that too often rewards idiocy and the idiots that spout the idiocy - good things can happen to good people.

Rachel is the opposite of an idiot - she's one of the smartest people in politics today. She is not just good people - she's great people, and she deserves this.
