    Olbermann Watch, "persecuting" Keith since 2004


    October 14, 2006
    Most Bizarre Olbermann Article Ever

    UPDATE: Cornell is now censoring comments on their website in reponse to this post. See update below for more.

    In this article The Ultimate Trip, Senior Editor Kyle Sheahen produces what reads like a drug-addled caricature of one of those MSM KO Bandwagon articles we love to highlight here at Olbermann Watch. This is SO BAD it's actually funny. A "must read".

    More than 10 years after Murrow's See It Now program exposed Senator McCarthy's corruption, Keith Olbermann '79 graduated from our beloved Cornell.

    Besides the fact that McCarthy was never accused of "corruption" and that Murrow did not "expose" McCarthy , the famous "confrontation" between Murrow and McCarthy took place in 1954.

    Today, Olbermann is one of the most respected journalists in the country.

    OMFG. This kid really is delusional. I seriously doubt even Keith would agree with this claim.

    His Countdown with Keith Olbermann routinely trumps industry vets like Paula Zahn at CNN for the cable news ratings crown.

    The sad thing is that this "Ivy Leaguer" actually thinks this is true. For the record, Countdown has on a handful occassions gotten a bigger audience than Zahn over the past three years. I am not going to run the numbers but the figure is probably something like 99.5% of the time Zahn beats Olbermann.

    As for the "cable news ratings crown", Olbermann has NEVER EVER NOT ONE TIME EVER had the top rated cable news show in the hour, in the demo or overall. That this "senior editor" might actually think this is true is a sad commentary on the state of education in the United States. That said, he sounds like he has a real future working for a mainsteam newspaper.

    It only gets worse...

    ...in the over-hyped playland of sports broadcasting, Olbermann was a child with the biggest names and most expensive toys in sports at his disposal. And he looked miserably out of place.

    As St. Paul said, "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child."

    Olbermann has now become a man.

    Ummm. This is joke, right?

    Nope, Kyle continues..

    Olbermann has emerged as a heavy-hitting news reporter

    Ol' Fat Ass may be "Heavy" but not "heavy-hitting" and certainly not a "a heavy-hitting news reporter".

    Olbermann was there on Sept. 11, 2001, in New York for 40 days of continuous reporting.

    Keith may have been in New York that today but, as I recall it, he was not REPORTING from the WTC site on 9/11. He took a job with ABC News in order to report from the WTC site AFTER the 9/11 attacks.

    He was in Iraq in 2003 when the United States launched its invasion.

    This is too easy. Just add your own observations here while I go get a paper towel to wipe the coffee I just spit all over my keyboard when I read this line.

    he has weathered intimidation and threats from the likes of Bill O'Reilly and the New York Post.

    You think we would have heard if O'Reilly or the Post threatened Keith. You can only wonder what this kid is possibly thinking about.

    Olbermann gave up every kid's fantasy in order to truly serve his country. He traded the Little League World Series for Mark Foley, the Final Four for evangelical voters and the Oakland Raiders for the White House

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

    On the five-year anniversary of Sept. 11 last month, Olbermann stood among the ruins of the World Trade Center and delivered a damning condemnation of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the rest.

    I don't recall Olbermann mentioning Cheney, Rumsfeld or "the rest" not do I recall Keith standing "among the ruins" of the World Trade Center. In fact, I don't recall there being any "ruins" at all because the last remnants of the World Trade Center were hauled out of "the pit" in June, 2002 (9 months after 9/11). Also, Keith broadcast from a roof top overlooking the WTC site

    This piece is so shoddy that not only should the editor of the school paper terminate this guy's column but the kid's parents should demand a refund of his tuition. It almost seems impossible that someone could be so stupid. That this kid got into Cornell should give home to every C student in high school today.

    UPDATE: In keeping with a long-standing Ivy League tradition, Cornell's student newspaper is now censoring comments to an error-filled, fact-challenged left-wing rant. Comments WERE acceptable on the Cornell Sun web site right up until Olbermann Watch linked the piece, pointed its many errors and mocked the writer and the paper. If you attempt to post a comment under the article you will not get the following message:

    "Your comment has been queued for moderation by site administrators and will be published after approval."

    OMG. That is a laughfest. I can't believe he said Olby was in Iraq for the 2003 invasion. That kid needs to be in rehab. And he owes you a new keyboard.

    Heavy-hitting news reporter? He must have used the Wikipedia KO page and Democratic Underground web site as his sources.

    Hyperbole, opinion as "fact", kisassery...this kid is bucking for TVNewser's throne as obsequious punk Olbyworshipper.

    He'll be TVNewser's intern.

    so, he's `Krazy Keith' because he's the only person on cable not shilling for this pathetic excuse in the White House? please, someone help me understand what makes him `krazy keith' and how come anyone who has balls and tells it like it about the right is automatically deemed crazy?
    Harrr Reid is dingy harry, Howard Dean? Crazy. Hillary? `Angry and hysterical. Gore? Crazy with pathological rage. see a pattern here. Help me understand people. I think he scares you, otherwise why devote A WHOLE WEBSITE TO HIS EVERY UTTERANCE. Someone tell me why I'm wrong here. and, in your response, please tell me what its like to shill.

    Goodnight and good luck.

    "because he's the only person on cable not shilling for this pathetic excuse in the White House?"


    Bizarre Biff...

    Sure Biff, I think I can help you out here. The first problem is that these people who need to attack Kieth Olbermann are only doing so because they are very scared. Scared he is going to take away their fix. Being lied to and treated like crap by the government creates a certain endorphins in their body that fills a chemical need. This need started a long time ago when they were young in school. They knew deep down inside they were not the most athletic, good looking or smart compared to most of the other kids. That is when they started sucking up to those who were. When the people they were sucking up to saw the lack of pride and self-respect these people have they in turn beat them down creating this endorphin rush. Their bodies started craving this endorphin that occurred naturally and the vicious cycle began. Being nice to the very people that want to harm them sort of a sick master servant relationship. The abuser now is the republican party and the apologist that protect the government.

    So Biff, Kieth attacks their dealer and that makes the junky go mad.

    I Hope that helps you Kieth. Don’t bother replying I will never look at this site again it’s a waste of brain cells. Plus just by me writing this I’m supplying these sad degenerate fools a small fix.

    Hey feel now baby!

    Keith Olbermann and his fanatical following of half-wits doesn't scare me in the least. And you want to know why? Because if this lunatic and his half-baked arguments are the best he can offer up, then you are in far bigger trouble than you calim the GOP is currently in.

    Oh come now Biff...the reason that Keith has a site dedicated to his unique blend of laughoutloud distortion/mischaracterization of facts, dramatic flair that only a true diagnosed histrionic could appreciate and adherence to sophistry that Morton Downey (may he rest in peace) would appreciate ,is because, it is as entertaining as it is sad that journalism has come to this. Yes, I'm scared- that this type of claptrap is what passes for the MSM. By the way, who are you shilling for these days...

    Come on you know you like it when I smack you down.

    The balls in your court, Sunshine, or wait, what was the Rove phrase for the Christian coalition leaders, oh yeah. The balls in your court Nut Job.

    The anonymous post was by me

    Landshark, what are you doing to yourself. Man I'm only kidding around uggh man that’s sick I was just calling you a name I didn’t want you to get all turned on and stuff.

    Man, Iwas calling you a nut job, not saying give yourself one. Dude what's wrong with you.

    """His Countdown with Keith Olbermann routinely trumps industry vets like Paula Zahn at CNN for the cable news ratings crown."""

    Can't prove that statement!!!

    In what bizarro world is this happening?? Where you can just made shit up???

    I came here expecting a point-by-point analysis of what Olbermann SAYS, but instead I see pretty much all attcks on HIM. What a total waste of bandwidth is olbermannwatch.com.

    And the sad part? This article is written by someone attending one of this nation's elite Ivy League schools, Olby's old alma mater, Cornell.

    "In what bizarro world is this happening?? Where you can just made shit up???"

    In Olby world.

    Hyperbole is all that is written anywhere on this site. What a joke, this guy had a chance of attracting new eyeballs to this site with a link from an El Paso Times article. This is just a bunch of lame drivel with no substance. I’m writing a letter to the El Paso Times for putting a link to this site. This site is only filled with some dork’s opinion, no real facts anywhere contradicting what Olbermann has said.

    Westwood One.....

    """His Countdown with Keith Olbermann routinely trumps industry vets like Paula Zahn at CNN for the cable news ratings crown."""

    FACT:
    This in NOT a fact! It is a lie! Olberman has seen NO CROWN! Occasionally KO squeaks into second place in the 25-54 demo but for the most part he is a 3rd or 4th place hack. The liberal MSM writes about this guy as if he had Bill O'Reilly ratings. BO has a #1 book out and can't get any love from the liberal MSM.

    USA Today recently had to issue a correction about Olby's ratings spin after he was inflating his ratings to them.

    KO is the king of 4th place. From what I've seen, he has spent more time there than anyone. 4th place out of 4 would be last.

    Interesting that "MSNBC" wasn't mentioned in the ENTIRE article. I suppose that mentioning the lowest rating cable news network would be like sticking the proverbial needle in the balloon.

    the lefty msm is trying to do a Jon Stewart with Krazy Keith.....That is hype hype hype...for a guy with mediocre ratings. I eman they write about Stewart like he has American Idol ratings.

    That "article" is so twisted that I had to read it again.

    The main thought I came away with?

    Damn, Cornell must have one hell of an admissions curve for this guy to make it to the Ivy League.

    Whoa...wait a sec, I think someone sockpuppeted that other comment of miner about well you know...
    Substance?? OK, let's go back to earlier this week. Kool Aid Kwaffing Keith does a shameless bit on Cory Leidle. Leidle was no Nolan Ryan but Keith thought it necessary to mention on four occasions during his drivel that Leidle was a journeyman and that he wasn't a "superstar." One can argue that narcissists like Kranky Keith have no respect for the departed and just accept it but come on!! His Nazi comments, well, in a just world, they stand for themselves. Strangely, though I'll keep watching, just to see what sort of high entertainment or low farce he will vomit up next.

    I think there is a lot of truth there. I think they talk and act superior because they feel inferior and need to strike out at someone to feel safer. It's a shame really.

    huh?

    In this guy's world, the facts are irrleevant in the pursuit of fawning affection for kO.

    This article once again validates my belief that mot KO watchers (those few they are) are nothing more than doped up college students and the old hippies I see on the road still trying to sell "organic eggplants".

    I can't believe the bad grammar and spelling. I'll try again:

    I'm taking bets on whether Brian Stelter of TVNewser links to this article.

    I am a progressive blogger visiting this blog out of curiosity. I have to say the level of discourse here is startlingly vacuous. But all the name calling at least transcends Bush's attempt at persuasive diplomacy by calling Kim Jong Il a "pygmy." Now he is a nucular one.

    Basicaly, I think the Keith haters are people who don't like being talked back to. It's a security thing. How can they feel superior and have someone dare to say they are not.The truth is too confusing to digest. Laughing at his tan. Calling him funny names. Maybe they were picked on and need to pick on someone else now. Wannabe bullies. His ratings may not be great, but people are hearing him. He even has a website for people to try to feel better about themselves after they just had a version of truth that they don't get from their Fox friends.

    Guess Who, if Olbermann's fans need a website from some dude on television in order to "try to feel better about themselves" then it isn't Keith's foes who have the insecurity issues....

    yes it is!

    Satire?

    Sarcasim?

    A Send-up?

    A Big Bronx Cheer?

    It has to be.

    "By JANIE McCAULEY

    DETROIT (AP) - Fox baseball broadcaster Steve Lyons has been fired for making a racially insensitive comment directed at colleague Lou Piniella's Hispanic heritage on the air during Game 3 of the American League championship series.

    The network confirmed Saturday that Lyons was dismissed after Friday's comments. He has been replaced for the remainder of the series by Los Angeles Angels announcer Jose Mota.

    "Steve Lyons has been relieved of his Fox Sports duties for making comments on air that the company found inappropriate," network spokesman Dan Bell said.

    Lyons had been working in the booth for the ALCS alongside Thom Brennaman and Piniella, the No. 2 broadcast team for Fox this postseason.

    A call to Lyons' cell phone was not immediately returned Saturday.

    In the second inning of Friday's game between Detroit and Oakland, Piniella talked about the success light-hitting A's infielder Marco Scutaro had in the first round of the playoffs. Piniella said that slugger Frank Thomas and Eric Chavez needed to contribute, comparing Scutaro's production to finding a "wallet on Friday" and hoping it happened again the next week.

    Later, Piniella said the A's needed Thomas to get "en fuego" - hot in Spanish - because he was currently "frio" - or cold. After Brennaman praised Piniella for being bilingual, Lyons spoke up.

    Lyons said that Piniella was "hablaing Espanol" - butchering the conjugation for the word "to speak" - and added, "I still can't find my wallet."

    "I don't understand him, and I don't want to sit too close to him now," Lyons continued.

    Fox executives told Lyons after the game he had been fired.

    Piniella, approached before Saturday's Game 4, declined to comment on the situation except to say: "No, he's not here today."

    This was not a first-time offense for Lyons, nicknamed "Psycho" during his nine-year big league career as a utilityman that ended in 1993 with the Boston Red Sox.

    Hired when Fox began broadcasting baseball in 1996, Lyons was suspended without pay in late September 2004 after his remarks about Shawn Green of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Green is Jewish and elected not to play one of the two games at San Francisco that took place during the Yom Kippur holiday.

    The network apologized for Lyons' remarks at the time.

    Earlier in the playoffs, while working the Mets-Dodgers NLDS, Lyons unwittingly made fun of a nearly blind fan who was wearing special glasses to see the game.

    "He's got a digital camera stuck to his face," Lyons said.

    He also once pulled down his pants on the field during his playing days.

    Lyons, 46, was a career .252 hitter with 19 home runs and 196 RBIs for Boston, the Chicago White Sox, Atlanta and Montreal. He was a first-round draft pick by the Red Sox, 19th overall, in 1981.

    You people are fucked up.

    Don't like the message; attack one particular messenger whose vehicle is a goofy infotainment cable show. How deep into your own navals can you crawl?

    How old is this website? I just found it about four days ago, but it looks like the oldest material to found here dates to October 2nd of this year.

    Is my suspicion correct that "Olbermann Watch" came into existence at about the time Keith really grew a pair and started dishing it out to the Bushies in his "Special Commentaries"?

    How close is your desk, Robert Cox, to that of Karl Rove?

    No "Sir Loin" this site goes back to 2003. And I'd have no problem with Olbermann and his commentaries or any of the rest of his show if he'd only tell the truth and do it in a balanced way. While Fox gets blamed for having an unbalanced view, it is Olbermann's show, more than any other on tv that distorts, bends, and flat-out lies. Those distortions & lies have been well-documented here at Owatch. It seems to be YOU who has a problem with that. Why? Hate someone pointing out the real truth to you about your hero?

    "Why? Hate someone pointing out the real truth to you about your hero?"

    Who the Hell said anything about Johnny Cash?!?

    Beef,

    As long as Rove's checks keeping clearing we will keep publishing!

    That's what I figured, RC.

    I did not know that Johnny cash was a socialist homophile sir loin of spleef? Hey sir pur-loined you really prove what a man with one brain cell, a computer and a strong devotion to a partisan hack nutcse posing as a "journalist" can really accomplish. Hell RC should be sending olbermeister a check for all the material nuttiness he produces every weeknight on his self proclaimed "news" show.
    Sir groin of beef we are all just "messengers" here. We expose the insanity , hypocrisy, bias, and one sideness of the olbertweaker. Why is it you are attacking the messengers here? The news media loves to proclaim itself as the "watchdog" but who is watching the watchdog?
    and guess who? we all know that you are O'lielly . there is really nobody else that can surpass your level of juvenile stupidity, atrocius spelling and sixth grade logic . I expect that if there was some way for you to represent your sticking your tounge out here like the olbertard did on friday night you would do it.
    I hope mistah olbermannic comes here and sees the true intelligence level of his ardent and devoted lemmings.

    Krazy Keith is the Hamburger Helper of the Looney left. He can take a morsel of hamburger (the truth) and add a wheel barrel full of Helper (leftwing spin and misinformation) and feed thousands Kos-maniacs.
    Never ever does he invite debate.
    And who can forget the hacky MSNBC Analysts with their "Un-named,anonymous,inside the beltway,unidentified,etc" Sources....see Shuster.

    "I did not know that Johnny cash was a socialist homophile sir loin of spleef?"

    Well, anonymous chickenhawk, I've never heard such things said about Johnny either. However, I do know he was always in the corner of working people, and he definitely was not averse to the occasional spleef. As for his hypothetical impression of this war; I recommend you look at his surviving friends Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings and see where they come down on it.

    ...and as for the anonymous chickenhawk's "homophile" accusation leveled against the great Johnny Cash - "he who lives in glass house houses should throw no stones" - and by now it looks like the whole Republican party is packed into the motherfucking Crystal Cathedral! - probably fighting each other over the youngest altar-boys.

    How many baldheaded gay male prostitutes work for "Olbermann Watch?"

    Sir Loin of Beef,

    Why do you hate homosexuals?

    Hope that helps you Kieth. Don’t bother replying I will never look at this site again it’s a waste of brain cells. Plus just by me writing this I’m supplying these sad degenerate fools a small fix.

    Hey feel now baby!


    You have as much credibilty as KO, Rather, Cronkite etc. Dont bother replying crap but you couldnt resist going on and on. Do an anylsis on your mental illness before you take on others.

    Who would care except the intolerant amongst us namely you Sir Whine of Moan

    If Keith Olbermann debated someone he would froth and foam like Sir Loin or O'lielly. Damn I wish he would debate someone that would get me to watch. I dont otherwise because I know what KO thinks America sucks but not as much as Republican Americans. Every night ad nauseum.

    And that's why Olbermann never has anyone on with an opposing opinion. He'd break down, cry, and retreat under his desk if someone ever offered up a decent argument on his show.

    There is no valid opposing opinion on what he has been talking about. The war is a failure. The republicans are corrupt. What is there to debate? You know it's true but you can't face up to it. You have your right wing propaganda that is keeping up the illusion that this country still behind them. They are not. It's over soon. Face it. They had all the power they could ask and they blew it. In a few years the whole thing will seem like a bad dream. Some people got caught up in fear. They are waking up.

    Now would be the time to post a whacky krazy Keith gif.......but they are not allowed....so just use your imagination.....krazy orange guy looking like a rabid dog when confronted with cold hard facts...lol.

    The facts are the republican controled government have failed the country. I feel sorry for those that were fooled by them. It's over soon.

    death, debt, and dumbness. That's what they brought. That's all we got.

    "Sir Loin of Beef,

    Why do you hate homosexuals?"

    To the contrary I have absolutely no problem with homosexuals. I do, however, find it strange and pathetic that so many conflicted, closeted, and repressed homosexuals alleviate the pain of their social- and self-stigmatization by serving so energetically a party largely focused on demonizing the gay lifestyle and politically and socially marginalizing gay people in general. Its weird and oedipal.

    The war is a failure.

    Damn straight it is...bravo for pointing this out!

    I along with EVERYONE ELSE ON THE LEFT including Codas and Sir Loin of Beef agree.

    The men and women of the U.S. military are utter failures. They are a disgrace.

    They can't win in Iraq.

    They can't even catch Bin Laden.

    The military should be disbanded.

    ** Democrats in '06...spitting on the U.S. military since 1965 **

    unlike the leftists I do not look to the entertainment industry for my politcal views. I pay the entertainment industry thru my purchase of movie and concert tickets and CDs to ENTERTAIN me with their applied talents not influence me politically. I formulate my own politcal beliefs based my my own concept of what is right and what is wrong.
    as far as your little pro gay diatribe:
    "To the contrary I have absolutely no problem with homosexuals.

Its weird and oedipal."
    OK so let me get this straight (pun intended) anybody who is against the gay agenda to have society forcibly accept and legitimize gay marriage, gay Boy Scout leaders, gay adoption, gay indoctrination in public tax payer funded schools are closeted and repressed homosexuals themselves?? Way to go! that's the way to gain acceptance! Stigmatize the good folks who do not embrace the homosexual agenda by - dee-dee-dee calling them gay!! how very progressive.
    Nobody asked the gays to come out of their closet and try to force legitimization of their lifestyle by imposing so called gay "marriage" on the society. Nobody is attacking gays, gays are attacking society. Nobody is saying that you can't be gay but what we are saying is that you do not get to change the traditional definition of marriage to legitimize your sexual choices and proclivities. Liberals will not accept the fact that it is NOT the people who are against gay "marriage" that have the problem it is the people who choose to force theirm lifestyle on the society. And by a wide margin this country rejects the ridiculous concept of homosexuals getting "married" There is absolutely no legitimate viable reason to re-define marriage.
    We will see come November how your agenda is going. I believe about 8 states have the gay question in referendum. So far every state has rejected it unless it has been forced upon the populace by judicial fiat a.k.a. tyranny.
    and I was calling you loin of beef the homophile and the saying goes- people who live in glass houses should fuck in the basement.

    The men and women of the U.S. military are utter failures. They are a disgrace.

    Don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say the soldiers were failures. Typical. Can't face the fact of the argument that your supporting a failed policy is the problem. Don't make me the bad guy. I didn't want them there. You will in the near future hear of many soldiers storys of what they got put up against. The truth comes out in the end. Just what would it take for you to admit that your beloved leaders fucked up. People do that sometime. I don't think their evil or stupid. Just wrong. They had visions of Iraq soldiers from the gulf war kissing Americas feet while they surrender. They were wrong and now 3000 dead soldiers later you need to see the truth. If it was a democrat in the whitehouse that made that decision I would still say it was wrong. Blind support to leaders is not something I could ever do. I question and think for myself. You are searching for angles that you can fight the truth with but it's not working anymore.

    It'snot only democrats that think the war was mishandled at the very least, and maybe a mistake altogether. Pat Buchanon is no liberal.

    I just noticed that Andrew Sullivan who was a supporter of the Irag invasion is posting a direct link to Keiths Habeas Corpus comment. He said it was "telling it like it is". Another nondemocrat who has seen the light.

    coda, I disagree.

    Our leaders are the most baltant and cynical war-profiteers in history. No dog-catcher in this country can stay in office with even a hint of conflict of interest (in red states that would be fucking too many of the dogs himself) but the rightie buffoons just grimmace and shreik about Clinton as the Bush gang steals all of their precious tax money - money that otherwise they're willing to starve widows and orphans in order to "keep" ("keep" to them means "let Bush and Cheney give it to their once and future companies"). The war has been a complete fuck-up because today's state of privatized war is very profitable, and the administration's board of directors likes it that way. And its not going to end.

    As you saw, some bumblefuck above pantomimed a supposed "lefty" voice in our honor, suggesting that we think our military and its members are "incompetent" and "losers". But no, actually they are highly trained and capable of a great deal , when directed appropriately and not stabbed in the back by their own venal leadership. The best thing our troops could now is to start killing every Halliburton executive they come across, and start getting the enemy out of the way.

    You attack Olbermann by attacking some student's little write-up about him? WTF?

    I agree the article is pretty lame. But that's how you attack Olbermann - by attacking some kid's little hero worship piece? That's pathetic.

    Get a set, then maybe you'll get some credibility.

    This "kid" is writing for the newspaper of one of this country's Ivy League colleges. One day soon this "kid" will begin a paying job, no doubt at one of this country's media organizations. And what has he chosen to write? An article riddled with errors. Is this the future of journalism in this country? Someone who can't even bother to fact-check? No wonder he adores Olby: he's just like him.

    Irony alert: "I think the Keith haters are people who don't like being talked back to"

    This in support of a guy too afraid to be challenged on the air with somebody that disagrees with him. So typical of the liberal and MSM media. On Reliable Sources yesterday, Kurtz tackled the Air America bankruptcy by exploring why it failed and why so many of the MSM wrote glowing tributes to the company since its start up while failing to acknowledge the obvious troubles.

    Wait a minute. That can't be right because it makes sense - so naturally Kurtz took a different approach. Kurtz had a liberal radio host on to discuss the right's glee in the fall of Air America. And what I would have learned in the 'old days', before I woke up to the charade that is the MSM, was that the left is actually beating the right on radio. Kurtz took in the liberal kool aid and didn't challenge the absurdities offered.

    Typical CNN - the only opinions that matter are Democratic centrist and liberal Democrats. And occasionally a principled paleocon that has long forgotten that Bush ran as a compassionate conservative - a spender - there to express dissapointment in the President for not following the paleocon agenda - also known as providing cover for the network to provide 'balanced' Bush bashing from right and left. And what would you expect from a network that aligned with Saddam to provide censored news to Americans. I wonder how they sleep at night knowing that one of Saddam's brother in laws, an enemy of Saddam's, was killed upon returning to Iraq when CNN could have warned him and saved his life......but lost access to Saddam's information machine. They're bastards.

    Terrific post, sweety!

    Just a thought. Lets let Sir Rotten Loin of Beef talk to himself and ignore him. If no one will play his little game he might confine himself to porn sites where he can rhapodise (sic) to his heart's content about body cavities, his mother and/or father, animals, toddlers, young boys, nubile girls, corpses and whatever else he is obsessed with.

    I think Winston Churchill said if you let your opponent change the topic of the debate you've already lost. And for myself, I don't like the topic being constantly changed by his obviously sick mind.

    Janet,

    I hadn't noticed.

    I had stopped reading his posts days ago because they all sound alike.

    Cecilia, Even scanning the posts one can hardly miss his obsession with perversion.

    My main point was so many respond to him that he winds up monopolizing the debate. Then things get to the point that an adult book store patron would blush.

    If no one would engage him he'll either go somewhere else or will intensify to the point he'll implode.

    Look, there are credible journalists who oppose the Prez that I watch. Russert, Wallace, etc. But you have to understand that Olberman is zealotlike in his comolete impartial hatred for the Prez. You are not getting news, Spin. the Man specifically leaves out info because it may pike holes in his agenda.

    "Change the topic"? It wasn't me that started talking about body cavities, inscest, beastiality. necrophilia, etc.

    Wanna get together?

    Sir Rotten Loin, this is the SICK BITCH GRAMMY (sic). So I was wrong about the necrophilia. What's a little hyperbole to such a reasoned, nuanced man like you.

    From five posts by you in a few hours:

    How deep into your own navels can you crawl?

    Packed into the mother fucking Crystal Cathedral fighting over the youngest altar boys

    How many gay male prostitutes work for Olbermann Watch?

    (in red states that would be fucking too many of the dogs himself)

    its wierd and oedipal

    I am convinced at some point you will lose your super human restraint in the face of such provocation and throw in necrophilia. How dare anyone disagree with such a superb intellect and debater? Shameful!

    Poor little baby. Grammie hates to treat potty mouthed little boys harshly, but sometimes she must for their own good.

    Now, if you can stop crying and whining Grammie will give you some cookies and juice and put you down for a nice little nap.
