In a profile of blogger Andrew Sullivan in the May-June 2011 issue, Jesse Kornbluth writes, "Sullivan’s impassioned prose is matched only by his willingness to change his mind." Read the profile, then watch these clips of the opinionated blogger's television appearances.

In two recent clips from the Chris Matthews Show, see Sullivan discuss Libya and taxes and federal spending.
In this October 2010 clip, Sullivan discusses the government's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy on gays in the military (the policy has since been repealed), asserting that President Obama had "fired more gay people than anybody in America, just because they're gay."
In this November 2008 clip, Sullivan discusses his decision to support Barack Obama for president on The Colbert Report.
Lastly, see Sullivan talking about Sarah Palin in a 2008 clip from Real Time with Bill Maher.
