And if so, can you name him/her and your reason why you respect them?
Here is mine: There are others, but one that sticks out for me is Dr. Marc Lamont-Hill. He is about as far left as you can possibly get, even bordering on promoting communism, but I enjoy listening to him debate. He makes excellent points without being combative and stands up for his views based on principle. Rarely, if ever, do I agree with his views, but I respect him and enjoy hearing his take on things.
So who do you like on the "other side"?
On the right: WJR's Paul W. Smith
On the left: Ron Reagan Jr.
I used to respect bob dole. Don't really respect any of the current bozos. Can't say there are any of the democrats in there I like either...2 sides of the same corrupt pork chugging coin.
Joe Scarborough does seem to have some intellectual honesty if you are talking about pundits.
I like Scarborough and I can respect Pat Buchanan. Neither are nasty and they are willing to be on a so called liberal network and not be brainwashed. I also like that Buchanan and Rachel Maddow have a mutual respect and can have a reasonable debate without being nasty to each other.
Ron Paul is one of the most genuine people left in the entire Congress. He sticks to his principles, and I also love him for making Glenn Beck look like a mouth-foaming, raving lunatic that one time he appeared on his show and acted all calm and collected compared to Glenn's yelling and screaming.

Just because people work for networks other than MSNBC does not mean they are brainwashed.
