If the answer/question was Rachel Maddow, why'd they show the singer from Weezer?

Shocking ignorance on Matthews part, but the video is also telling, in how the MSNBC hosts won't mention the origin of this controversy, as noted in the caption above, P. Schweizer's "Throw Them All Out."
Relatedly, it was also interesting last night to see Senator Scott Brown's interaction with President Obama after the SOTU speech, as Obama was gladhanding his way out, when Brown sternly told him the anti-insider-trading bill was ready to go. Interesting that Brown is out front on this, since one of the most egregrious and blatant insider-trading offenders, according to the Schweizer book, is his fellow Massachusetts senator John Kerry.

Caffeine isn't why we don't drink coffee, no specific reason in fact has ever been given...

If you're Mormon, you know that the origin of the coffee/caffeine prohibition comes from Joseph's Smith's revelatory Word of Wisdom decree that members should abstain from 'hot or strong drinks.'

Vague terminology, that. But early Church leaders/prophets interpreted it to mean strictly coffee and tea – but excepting the types of coffees and teas that had no caffeine, such as herbal teas or the decaffeinated coffees that came with later modernity, like Sanka. Thus the ban hinged unequivocally on whether a substance contained caffeine.

Easy to have a "quiet, humble existence" like that ... when you don't drink coffee.
But for what? (jk).
(Btw there's probably more caffeine in those 96oz. Mountain Dews that Mormons pick up on their way to work than there is in the Starbucks Latte talls the rest of us do.)

Alistair Sim looks like Nicolas Cage.

“All countries are stable. Why don’t we have security and stability?”
Civilizational progress makes all of us soft, complacent, and forgetful.

I didn't miss your point.

One important factor for the people of the North, and an obstacle in the path of any progress toward change, is that they founded their state on the virtue of their being the anti-Japanese-empire segment of Korean society, i.e. the exalted resisters against the Japanese colonization of the nation, going back several decades before WW2.
This meant that the South, by devastating and damning contrast, was assumed to be the state founded by those Koreans who were, during the colonization period, the contemptible collaborators with the Japanese, and as well as sellouts and suckups to the West. Any collapse now of the North's system, even so many years along, would risk an undermining of this founding-myth supreme virtue, an admission that they were wrong – an admission they essentially cannot make.

Actually he had everything. He had people willing to serve him everywhere he turned. He had gourmet chefs fixing him gourmet meals. He drank the finest spirits. He had a few hot wives, that he otherwise in no way deserved. He controlled. He dominated. He was worshipped. And when he died, millions mourned, however phony. It's good to be the king – it's not a hollow saying.

Lest we forget, Kim Jong-il loved movies enough to kidnap a South Korean director and his wife, to bring to NKorea to make movies there.
"Kim Jong-il later confessed to me that the reason he kidnapped my wife first was because he wanted me to come and make films for him," Shin Sang-ok said.
