For some reason he reminds me of Atticus Finch in "To Kill A Mockingbird". He's so calm, level headed and has a wistful smirk on his face. He manages to make the bad news seem good in a way.

And of course one reason is that he's one of those in Congress who not only appears on news shows, but he offers videos of so many of his appearances, Adam Schiff does the same thing, as does Elizabeth Warren, so we tend to know their opinions and what they're involved with on a regular basis. Not to mention, Senator Whitehouse tends to be such a hard worker, he has his particular issues, particularly the environment, so he's always involved and lets us know.

I classify them as "must watch" videos.

Thanks for posting, Rhiannon!

And the cool thing about Whitehouse, if MS NOW doesn't upload the video of his appearance, Senator Whitehouse's site uploads them (though often on the next day).
