George Allen's campaign blogger has dragged Keith Olbermann into the Virginia Senate Race.
Glenn Reynolds has a roundup on the conntroversy over some salacious passages in novels written by Jim Webb in which the Instapundit agrees that if Keith Olbermann thought it was fair to judge Scooter Libby based on his fiction writing then it must be pretty stupid to do the same to Webb.
You can decide for yourself here.
I can guarantee you Keith won't be reading quotes from Webb's work. And here might be the reason why:
"Webb’s novels disturbingly and consistently – indeed, almost uniformly – portray women as servile, subordinate, inept, incompetent, promiscuous, perverted, or some combination of these. In novel after novel, Webb assigns his female characters base, negative characteristics. In thousands of pages of fiction penned by Webb, there are few if any strong, admirable women or positive female role models."
Seeing how both Webb and Olbermann share a love for making misogynistic commens, I'm sure he'll have no problem whatsoever with Webb's works of fiction, just as Olby's fans have no problem with the works of fiction he tries to peddle each night on Countdown.
Olbermann is a coward and a fraud....
He does not dish Democratic dirt
Keith is god,, well as close as anyone can get..
Gods do not covort with 22-year old girls when they're almost 48.
Nah... god would be after 18 year olds.
Where's that caveman's "head on a pike"?
Mister Man-Tan should take a long hike
The orange hypocrite
Is so full of shit
And those moonbats all think alike
Katie is whack
I wish she would go to Iraq
Get blown up
Or blind her where she could wave a tin cup
If she needed from Rush she could get smack.
So Olbermann couldn't even be bothered to read passages from Webb's books huh? No shock there huh?
HEY! If you enjoyed that reading, check out the stuff from the QUEEN OF ALL SMUT, Lynn Cheney. (She's a spicy one, don't 'cha know?)You know, that little blond trollop married to VP Dick Cheney? Yeah, that one, the one with the lesbian daughter? I knew you could dig that.

Blitzer asked her about it.
From CNN:
CNN'S WOLF BLITZER: But you had written a book entitled "Sisters."
LYNNE CHENEY: I did write a book entitled "Sisters."
BLITZER: And it did have lesbian characters.
CHENEY: No, not necessarily. This description is a lie, I'll stand on that.
BLITZER: There is nothing in there about rapes and brothels?
CHENEY: Wolf, could we talk about a children's book for a minute?
Now tell me again about moral high ground would you Robert or Johnny?
Un-freaking believable!
So, what's your point, that Lynne Cheney is a hypocrite? Hit, I'll save you some trouble by citing an example of another Republicans who has written novels with "racy" material. Newt Gingrich did something similar as I recall. So he is a hypocrite, too?
OK, so does that mean Jim Webb shouldn't get the same treatment and scrutiny as Scooter Libby, since Olbermann seems to think that works of fiction written by government servants give us some insight ito their true nature? But of course, with Olbermann it's all a one way street--standards of scrutiny that are good for Republicans are off limits for his ideological soulmates the lefty Dems. This is why I just fall on the floor laughing when I hear all this talk that Orange Boy is gonna shift the focus of Meltdown to expose Democratic misfeasance should they take control of Congress. Give me a break, he's in the tank to the lunatic left.
BTW-- Webb is seeking one of the highest elective offices in the land. Lynne Cheney is not. Webb SHOULD get closer scrutiny for what he writes than Lynne Cheney .
The issue at hand is that Olbermann found plenty of time to read exerpts from Lynne Cheney's book & from Scooter Libby's as well as Bill O'Reilly's fiction books but yet can't be bothered to read the very graphic depections of child molestation and sex described in the Democratic Webb's books. I'm sure though that since they contain may descriptions of women being humiliated, demeaned and otherwise abused, he thinks they're epic works and approves accordingly of them as a fellow misogynist.
And who believes for a single minute that if the Dems take control that Olbermann will have the balls to alienate his core audience and primary supporters by criticizing a single thing that Dems do wrong? He doesn't even have the balls to expose Webb's history of smut for his audiences.
LYNN CHENEY: Ever see the book Sisters which she tried to supress when they ran in 2000. It is full of lesbian sex and this book was written before her lesbian daughter was born. Menstruating, sex with a sponge. you name it.
Fellow Republicans Gordon Liddy, John Erlichman are also porno writers. Jim Webb has received many awards for his book which is about WAR. It is a war book that has been recommended by the military as one of the top books about Vietnam for over 15 years! It is endorsed by John McCain.
And so you Keith haters. Stick it!
bsinrod is a liar. Notice he simply makes unsubstantiated claims that Cheney's book has truly horrific, offensive language while Webb's is nothing more than a book about war. I'll cite passages from both books and you make the call about which book is more offensive:
This is the extent of the "Explicit Steamy Lesbian" scene from Lynn Cheney's "Sisters":
"The women who embraced in the wagon were Adam and Eve crossing a dark cathedral stage -- no, Eve and Eve, loving one another as they would not be able to once they ate of the fruit and knew themselves as they truly were. She felt curiously moved, curiously envious of them. She had never to this moment thought Eden a particularly attractive paradise, based as it was on naiveté, but she saw that the women in the cart had a passionate, loving intimacy forever closed to her. How strong it made them. What comfort it gave."

Now here's Jim Webb:
"A shirtless man walked toward them along a mud pathway. His muscles were young and hard, but his face was devastated with wrinkles. His eyes were so red that they appeared to be burned by fire. A naked boy ran happily toward him from a little plot of dirt. The man grabbed his young son in his arms, turned him upside down, and put the boy’s penis in his mouth"
I'm still trying to figure out what a father sucking his son's penis has to do with war and why it is so essential to the book.
Surely if ever graphic language by an author was ever a relevant issue in determining something about a government official or a candidate, this passage by Webb certainly qualifies as one that should be questioned. If Libby and Cheney's writings are to be questioned, Olbermann should look at Webb's writings too. But he won't because he's a lefty cheerleader.
hank, you're p*****g against the wind if you expeact an answer from the 'oh so brave' bsinrod.
He wishes Parkinsons Disease on several people by name and shortly thereafter claims that the OW fans sre substituting namecalling for honest debate. No response from him yet to several posts I made calling him on it.
He virtually accuses Joe Scarborough of murder and enlisting a government official (coroner) in a conspiracy to cover the murder up. So forth no response to my aking him to respond with a clarification of his stance OR to cite some credible source.
Lots of luck in getting a reply. I have assigned him to class of contemptible people who slithers through the debate leaving a trail of slime and moving on.
