'Countdown with Keith Olbermann' for Dec. 15
Read the transcript to the 8 p.m. ET show
Updated: TRANSCRIPT PENDING
Guest: PENDING
OLBYWATCH GUIDE: Tonight Keith welcomed Michael Moore's favorite congressman, John Conyers, who insisted he is not in Ohio for "partisan" reasons but because he "cares" about the presidential election system. Conyers ran off the usual litany of Loony Left conspiracy theories but somehow failed to mention his REAL agenda, to federalize national elections to create a new, federal trial through the court system.
You can check me on this but I found 9 states where the margin of victory was 2 percentage points or less. Of those, Ohio ranks 7th on the list of close races. Florida, where BlackBoxVoting.org's Bev Harris is spending most of her time, is not even on this list.
Presumeably if Conyers and the BlackBoxers were really interested in the election system they would spend a but more of their time on New Mexico and New Hampshire where the differential was less than 10,000 votes and not Ohio where the margin was over 100,000 votes.
New Mex. (5) Bush - 376,940; Kerry - 370,893; Diff. - 6,047
New Hamp. (3) Kerry - 330,848; Bush - 340,019; Diff. - 9,171
Wisc. (10) Kerry - 1,477,122; Bush - 1,488,935; Diff. - 11,813
Iowa (7) Bush - 746,600; Kerry - 733,102; Diff. - 13,498
Nevada (5) Bush - 414,939; Kerry - 393,372; Diff. - 21,567
Minn. (10) Kerry - 1,345,175; Bush - 1,443,619; Diff. - 98,444
Ohio (20) Bush - 2,858,727; Kerry - 2,739,952; Diff. - 118,775
Penn. (21) Kerry - 2,756,904; Bush - 2,885,773; Diff. - 128,869
Michigan (17) Kerry - 2,310,803; Bush - 2,475,046; Diff - 164,243
Later, the champion of due process in the Ohio election reported that a man had "stalked" Paula Zahn, screaming and yelling at her on the street. Stalking is a crime. In Olbyland, Lincoln Karim, who works for the Associated Press, is presumed guilty. For those who have not kept up on "Hawkgate", Karim was arrested by New York City police for "multiple counts of aggravated harassment and one count of endangering the welfare of a child" as he prepared to lead a Hawk Protest in front of Zahn's Manhattan apartment. He was arrested yesterday based on a a complaint was filed by CNN"s Paula Zahn and has yet to stand trial.
Yea, I watched it.................It was almost as bad as watching Bill Clinton bite his lip for an hour....
Thursdays show, for those of you fortunate enough to miss it was the>>>>
The the Pigeon Drop Con.
1st Con.....Kieth Olbermann...
2nd suspect.....John Conyers...
Pigeon.....You the viewer...
A particularly good touch, was the one sincere tear I saw rolling down John Conyer's cheek when he said, "all I'm concerned about is free and fair elections".

Still bangin' on "Slick Willy," eh? And you have the audiacity to accuse us lefties of beating a dead horse. Simply amazing.
I wonder why there wasn't more press about John Conyers' last gimmick where, during the presidential election, he co-sponsored a bill that would have reinstated a military draft. You know... the erstwhile "we're not for it, but it's going to be necessary anyway" draft bill that was conveniently utilized by liberal groups (without mention of the sponsors or the fact that the bill would go nowhere) as fodder to e-mail college students draft scare screeds.
Conyers is covering several bases with this lastest enterprise. He hopes to damage the president's credibility, dash his mandate claims, and take the ability to run local elections out the hands of states.
As for the Paula Zahn thing, from what I hear this "stalker" directly addressed a threat to her children, telling them that their parents would "pay" for what they did [destroying a hawks nest on the side of their apartment building]. That's amble reason to have the guy arrested in my book.
As if W needs any help to damage his credibility...
Paul,
You're correct in that I've accused "you lefties" of flailing,..... but never a dead horse.

It is so nice to see people of leftist leanings, such as our friend Paul S, post on this site. You could just say this blog is "fair and balanced."
I've been kicked off the DU site so often I think they have me GPS tracked or something and it is for much more mundane postings than Paul S writes. You must really toe the party line over at DU or you are immediately history.
I know, Rubin. You've got a real flair (and I'm not being sarcastic here). I intended the "royal you."
Thanks, Chuck for your comments. I wouldn't go so far to say it's "fair and balanced" --(isn't that copyrighted?)--but given this site's purpose, it appears to be succeeding.
From what I've seen elsewhere, I do think it's commendable that I'm tolerated here. While I don't agree on many points with those who post here, I keep my disagreement civil and try to show that I respect every opinion. I appreciate the opportunity to comment and won't try to hijack the discussion by inserting inflammatory rhetoric. I don't pretend to be an expert and will admit when I'm wrong, but I won't allow you to misrepresent me or hold back if I feel strongly about something.
I could post to DU or somewhere more aligned with my POV but see no benefit in it. I'd rather see and hear what you're about. Thanks for letting me.
