The OlbyLoons danced around the virtual bonfire over at the Fire Dog Lake Book Salon this evening. Reporting for duty were Jane Hamsher, Joe Wilson, Mike Stark, Colorado Boob, and the Great OlbyLoon himself, Keith Olbermann. I'm happy to report that Olbermann Watch got a couple of (disparaging) mentions. Reading the entire comment thread is good for a lot of laughs but if you are time-crunched, let me give you the highlights here:
- Keith is in discussions for a "Special Comments" book
- Keith said no longer wishes to appear on Network News since "I 'found' my voice"
- Apparently KO's little Clinton interview payola apparently paid off since he disclosed that he was given "free" tickets to Bill Clinton's Rolling Stones concert. Just to review, Keith interviews Clinton, not only a former President but the husband of a sitting U.S. Senator, hands him a good-sized check, then accepts "free" tickets to a rock concert. Remember that the next time KO rants about the Abramoff scandal where many of the "crimes" are remarkably similiar to KO's goody-grab.
- In a farewell tidbit he took the air out of Jeff Cohen's recent claims stating flatly that "[Phil] Donahue was not cancelled because he was anti-war".
- Olby said liberals should cut Norah O'Donnell slack be she shares his disdain for Bill O'Reilly; he says she proposed an anti-Bill O'Reilly segment to Keith when he first returned to MSNBC.
The Joe Wilson lovefest there was hilarious. I don't know who has a bigger ego - Olby or Joe.
The Special Comments book idea is a joke. Does this mean he'll attempt to do enough to fill a book, or will the typeface be very large?
He "found" his voice by stealing it from every blue blog on the Internet. What a liar. His voice fell off the back of a truck.
And he no longer wishes to appear on network news because network news does not wish him to appear. It has nothing to do with his "voice," except when he said enough stupid things to get him blackballed from practically every network.
Don't you love censorship on these blogs! I sent this in to that FIREDOGLAKE chat with Keith:

Just curious, Mister Olbermann. What with the stock market at an all-time high, oil prices dropping and gasoline prices way down, with our economy at near full-employment, taxes low and government receipts up, why don’t you even mention any of these ONCE instead of always bashing the President? This is very odd (ball)!"
BUT:
1) They blocked out "OLBERMANNWATCH.COM" as I specifically quoted this on my original "special comment".
2) "Your comment is awaiting moderation" shows up!
Now I see that they TOTALLY omitted my comment COMPLETELY??? So I guess they didn't like either the mention of Olby Watch or maybe the comment although it of course WAS posted (as mentioned above) for a few minutes!!
PS Should be REALLY interesting tomorrow night to see if KO even MENTIONS Saddam's verdict. But, if he does, I'm guessing he'll throw Bush in and make mention that he (Bush) too should be on trial and found guilty or something along these lines.

Hi Keith, welcome to the ‘lake. I’m curious why you seem to be the only newsguy that has any common sense. Do emails to reporters and/or their bosses really make any difference? What is the best way to “educate� people like “Tweety� (Hardball) and “Noron� O’Donnell, so they’ll stop being nothing more than mouthpieces for the current administration?
Keith Olbermann - Says;
First, I must defend Norah. The first week I came back to MSNBC in March, 2003, she called me from the DC and suggested we should do a NIGHTLY segment quoting O’Reilly’s falsehoods and stupidities. I know her sympathies are questioned in your community (and others) but I think she deserves more credit than she gets. As to emails to the on-air types: a) they generally don’t get to read them, because b) there’s so little time to read them. Management, since it does little but wring its hands no matter what he business nor environment, has plenty of time to read. Be cordial, individual, and brief. Remember with what dismissiveness we all rightly treated the spam-mailing of the FCC over Janet Jackson.
The liberals hate Norah. They all swear she's on Rove's payroll. I don't imagine his defense of her will sit well with them.

ROTFLMAO.
Olbermann should clarify his e-mail statement a little more.
E-mails that contain nude photos and are sexually explicit are immediately flagged as must-reads. Anything that is derogatory towards the mentally competent portions of the world is either discarded or reponded to with a string of vulgarities.
Whadda schmuck.
OMG. That is hilarious. Olbyloons will believe anything, even lame excuses (aka lies) for why he ignores their emails. LOL.
How in the hell can KO make his "special comments" into a book?...there all the same comment.."Bush Bad!"..there would have to be a lot of padding in that book.
And how small would the market be for such a book? I mean the comments are available on-line via old show transcripts as it is now. It's really true: the olybloons have got to be the most gulliable people in the world.

Second only to the Repelican Bushaholic Limballed Hannityzed Rumpsfielded brainwashed make up cute names to make us feel superior people.
Damn straight Codas these brainless right-wingers make me sick. They say that all keiths special comments are saying is "Bush Bad" thats because they arent listening to his special comments. Its a hell of alot more then that and I will be first in line to get the book it should be a great read!
Unlike these punks I watch all the shows on fox as well as the good shows on MSNBC. I listen to what they are saying because I'm not so blinded by jealousy of the fox guys like they are of Keith.
I cant believe they could watch O'Rielly, Hannity and Hume and not clearly see that they are all repeating the same presidentialy approved talking points. Its plain to see and in their fair and balaced way of having a lefty on their show just so they can shout them down over and over again hardly letting them get a word in. These guest will say something that is the truth like oh say John kerry telling a joke about the president which everyone knows is true, they will just keep saying that it was about the troops when everyone know thats a lie only a fool couldnt see it was about bush but hell they couldnt see the truth if it was smacking them in the face! Or should I say they arent paid to see the truth they are paid to lie for thier right-wing bosses!
Atleast Keith is his own man and not bought and paid for in the pocket of the Republican party!
It's no wonder Keith hates O'Reilly. O'Reilly actively seeks people who disagree with him on issues and Keith actively seeks people who won't disagree or challenge him. He's jealous because O'Reilly has something he doesn't. And it's not ratings folks, it's BALLS.
Why the hell would anybody watch him when he puts on no opposing view points? Who defends this? Why is he scared of a good old fashioned debate? What other show on TV allows no opposing views?
I would like to get some of you left-wingers opinion on this. I read a post from O'Lielly one time(when he acting like himself instead of the alter ego he portrays on this site) and even he said it bothers him that Keith won't put on opposing views.
And for all you people out their who will say I'm some Bush kool-aid drinker you should know something. I was against the Iraq war from the start, I think people should consider long and hard if Bush should be impeached for not protecting the border, am disgusted by the spending of current so called "Republicans", and I'm against free trade to my very core.
But I have no respect for someone who can't defend their views against people who disagree. We should all be willing to engage people who disagree wish us in debate. All Keith can do is throw insults(that would get some people fired) at people from the safety of his studio, with no chance for response. He would never say any of these things to these people's face, and refuses to invite them on his show to refute his claims. That is what you call a COWARD ladies and gentleman. Nuff Said.
Let me explain for you and I'll try to use little words to make it easy for you to understand.
Some shows are debate shows some shows are hardcore news shows and some shows are just plain fun to watch.
If I am wanting to watch a debate then I would watch Hardball, Meet the Press or The Factor maybe Hannity but as for the latter two shows can you really call it a fair and balanced debate when all they ever do is shout down anyone who disagrees with them Hannity being the worst offender my god if you dare to say anything outside of the presidentially approved talking points he losses his mind and smoke starts to come out of his ears its so sad.
Now one last time Keith doesnt have debates on his show because its not a debate show its just a damn good show. What you only watch shows that have debates thats alittle wierd dont you think? Do you think that maybe you like conflice a bit to much, it makes you happy when people yell at each other?
Its a basic easy to understand premiss its called COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN its a Countdown of the top news stories of the day its not called DEBATE WITH KEITH OLBERMANN what does debating people have to do with it?
It's not that he doesn't air debates; it's that he doesn't bother to air an opinion that opposes his own leftist views, which he claims he doesn't have. He brings on guests that parrot his opinions, and presents no opposing viewpoint.
You make snide comments about me not being able to understand big words and then you can't even spell conflict. Your real f'n bright.
Now onto your post...I agree with you about Hannity, and I can't stand him. As for Keith, fine, he doesn't have to debate anybody. Just invite a couple of conservative guests on his show a few times a week and allow them to give their message unfettered just like he does with the liberals.
Really the only reason I brought up debating is because I'm sure that Keith could never let a conservative view point be uttered on his show without challenging it. Which would naturally lead to a debate. If he wishes to let them state their views without a challenge, that's fine with me. His is the only show on TV in which there is not just a little balance. That's nothing to be proud of.
What is it about liberals and wanting to suppress speech? There are tons of liberal websites that will ban you the minute they find out your a republican or conservative, no matter how tame, reasoned, and thoughtful you may be. There is not one conservative site I visit that bans somebody based on political affiliation.
oh ouch you got me on a typo are you the same guy from the other thread that is supposed to be doing all my spell checking for me?
Well if you re i'm still waiting for a full report of any typos and grammer errors. That will give you something useful to do with your time well when your not busy planning Keiths shows for him.
Thats the craziest shit I have ever heard Keith has to invite a couple of conservative guests on his show a few times a week and allow them to give their message unfettered? (Yeah as unfettered as billo lets his guest as hes shouting them down mmm hmm)
What? Why? Because you said so?!? Thats nonsense lets see, Shepard Smith says he wont allow pundits on his show or even consider anyones opinion. Should we have a Shepard Smith Watch? Remember it fox's bullshit claim to be Fair and Balanced not MSNBC they know that both sides are NOT right! There can be only one side right and one side wrong to say both side of a fight are in the right is as dumbass as it gets!!!
Its like saying in a war that the guys doing the attacking are the good guys and the guys being bomb out of their homes are the bad guys. If its their country they are in the right.
Its like saying that the guy that beats the shit out of his wife during a fight is just as in the right as his wife because hey we have to be fair and balanced so I'm sure he was in the right to beat the hell out of her, Right?!?! Following your logic that is what your saying.
Now hurry up and get to that spell checking I dont have all day and I have lots of post to check so you better get busy. Hey dont forget to check grammer.
I'm still waiting for the attacks against Jusghead Scarborough, Richard, Perle, the American Conservative Magazine (http://www.amconmag.com/2006/2006_11_20/feature.html), and all the other righties that are expressing their disdain and revulsion against this feckless and petulent president. Most of these criticisms from the right reflect major-league ass-covering, but you can't deny that Olbermamnn is getting a great deal of company on his soapbox.
Are you going to launch an internet hatesite for each one of these?
I love the way House Majorty Leader John Boehner (R-OH)threw our battlefield officers to the dogs last week in his defense of henchman Rumsfeld. How do you clowns feel about it? "Support our troops" my ass.
I'm not your spell checker, if you can't spell you should get Firefox which has a spell checker built in.
Your comparisons are far reaching at best. Nah, their not, their just stupid. If Keith would just come out and say, "Yes, ladies and gentleman, I'm a liberal and I don't want any views on this program that differ from mine." Then that would be fine with me and I wouldn't care what he did. But instead, he runs around saying how he's not biased and that he's really fair. He even cites his coverage of the Clinton Monica scandal. He doesn't mention that his coverage of that consisted of him calling Ken Starr a Nazi.
I also hope you realize that in your comparison involving War, you basically said that the United States was the bad guy in WWII. After all, we were bombing Germans out of their homes, and it was their country. So by your logic we were the bad guy. Have fun at your next Nazi party meeting, and say hi to Keith for me.
Yeah common Mr.Cox you have to be fair and balanced now if you hate one you have to hate them all.
You know now that I think of it doesnt anyone else think that its wrong for the President of all bloggers (as Mr.Cox has appointed himself) to have a hate-blog its funny i have been following ol'cox-head trial through the internet and I havent heard him talk about Olbermann watch and when i posted at his MBA site it disappeared so fast it made my head spin(well i felt bad there were like 0 comments on almost all his posts it was sad)
I get the feeling he is ashamed of OW doesnt want his respectable friends to know about it maybe i dont know. I do know that I would be ashamed to have a Hate-blog, since hate speech is illegal shouldnt a hate-blog be illegal as well?
To the fool who said Richard Perle was a conservative, please get a brain you lunatic. Calling Richard Perle a conservative is an insult to me and all the other real conservatives out there. Thanks to people like that fool I've lost my party.
Thats great this is the perfect thing for a conservative piece of shit like you to say. I would expect it at the very least.
You take an anti-war comment like that and turn it into I'm a Nazi.
A comment that is clearly anti-war and that makes me a nazi the most war mongering motherfuckers in history!?! Does that make sense to anyone else?
At best you could say it was an insightful comment on the Iraq war but it would be a really long long long fucking stretch to say it had anything to do with WW2 as if I was even thinking about a war that happened over 60 years ago yeah that was right on my mind when I made that post well hell i am a nazi now arent I. Oh boy you fuckers really take the cake!
So was Hitler anti-war is that why i'm a nazi? Is that what we have in common?
Just give it up its nothing but nonsense from you and if you dont want to be my spellchecking bitch then you better stop correcting me when i make little typos if you typed as fast as i do instead of doing the ol one finger peck like you do then you would probably make mistakes as well.
Would you please start listing the advertisers on each show so I know whom to boycott?
Would you please start listing the advertisers on each show so I know whom to boycott?
Boycott hmm Boycott Billo is that you?
I think his main advertiser is Head On.
Yeah boycott the head on bastards.
Yeah boycott the head on bastards.
Yeah boycott the head on bastards.
Jeez, Blogger Doe, you doth protest too much! It was just a joke, I never thought you were really a Nazi. Now that you've blown your top I'm not so sure...
If you don't want people asking who you rooted for in WWII then you shouldn't make broad statements like: "Its like saying in a war that the guys doing the attacking are the good guys and the guys being bomb out of their homes are the bad guys. If its their country they are in the right."
Maybe next time you'll use your under developed brain and think things through before you type you liberal piece of shit. You lefties are all the same, just like Keith really. You talk a big game from the safety of the computer in your mama's house, but when it comes to real life your nothing but a pussy.
My favorite part of the chat transcript was where Keith claims he's embarrassed by the comparisons to Murrow. Please, that's why he's lifted Murrow's sign off and does the dramatic spin to Camera 3 in his special comments and why he steals the dramatic eye movements all straight from Murrow. He's practically begging his audience to make the comparisons and then feigns embarassement when they do. I'll say this for him, he gets the stupidity level of his fans and he leads them right down the path and they follow along willingly like the lemmings they are.
oh Squalls Blade You are so sad.
Afteral I have said do you really think I am just a kid living at home with my mother? Do you really?
You say you joke that someones a nazi and you say that I'm like Kerry. Now that is funny...well no not really. Thats right I'm supposed to roll over and let you shove your Neocon boot up my ass like your buddies have done to the rest of the country, because if I defend myself then I'm blowing my top.
"If you don't want people asking who you rooted for in WWII"
You were around rooting for someone in the 1940's?
How fuckng old are you grandpa?
Then I shouldn't make broad statements like: "Its like saying in a war that the guys doing the attacking are the good guys and the guys being bomb out of their homes are the bad guys. If its their country they are in the right."
Hitler was the one doing the attacking you fool we were defending so that kind of negates the whole statement which was CLEARLY ABOUT IRAQ YOU FUCKING IDIOT! THEY DID NOT ATTACK US FIRST!!!
Damn here I was worried that someone would obviously see that it was a sneaky little comment about iraq and start a fight about that, never did I dream some old man would come along and think I was a Kraut!
I hope for your sake that you are an old man who thinks it still the 40's otherwise you just look plain stupid.
Well gotta go get my 16 year old and 13 year old kids up for school but when I see my mother at christmas I'll give her your regards.
Goddamn first i'm a Nazi now i'm a pussy living at home with Mama thats just sad.
Goddamn first i'm a Nazi now i'm a pussy living at home with Mama thats just sad.

Remember these people are always saying how "shrill" and hostile liberals are and that they are far more inteligent to resort to name calling. They like to think of themselves as moral giants surrounded by Godless heathen secularist who support terrorists and the gay agenda. No matter what you say it will always get thrown back in your face in a way you never intended. I think half of "them" are lawyers and are pros at disecting statements and using them to their own advantage. Keith pisses them off because they like shows like Hannity and Colmes and other debate shows. O'Reily types who "feel the truth" are big with them. The idea that O'Reily has more balls because he debates "usually the weakest liberal" and Keith is a coward because he doesn't put conservatives on is a joke. Keith speaks out against the ones in power while Hannity and O'Reily have their nose up their ass.
Blogger Doe, you made the statement that anybody that is being bombed in their country are in the right. We were bombing people in Germany in their country. So they were in the right based on your statement. You never said that it's fine to bomb their country if they attacked us first. I knew you were talking about Iraq, but I wanted to point out to you how broad you made your statement.
By calling me a neocon you clearly haven't read my posts. I WAS AGAINST THE IRAQ WAR FROM THE START. Hello?!? Should I say it again? I despise the neocon idiots and their dream to change the middle east into a democracy by using the blood of American Troops. I think free trade is selling this country down the river. I voted for Pat Buchanan in 2000. I would vote for him in '08 if he ran. Why the hell are you calling me a neocon? Do you know what the word means?
And no, I'm not an old man. I'm 24 if your really that concerned about it. I suppose I should have phrased that bit about WWII differently, but it wasn't that hard to understand...
Its a basic easy to understand premiss its called COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN its a Countdown of the top news stories of the day its not called DEBATE WITH KEITH OLBERMANN what does debating people have to do with it?
__________________________________
Fine, Keith doesn't want to debate. I've seen him in that format, and he's not good. He doesn't think well on his feet and doesn't do a good job of clashing with ideas.
How about interviewing people with a different opinion? Just put a contrasting opinion on the show and ask tough questions, but don't necessarily engage in a debate...you know, like a real newsman would do.
He doesn't have to adopt the O'Reilly no-holds barred, Hardball or Crossfire approaches. Olbermann could, however, actually present an opposing view and let the viewers judge for themselves.
This is one reason why Countdown is such a lousy show and has does so poorly in the rationgs. KO and his fans have become the left-wing version of ditto-heads, and they don't even know it.
Time for you to switch your WRATH to O Reilly!

Abortion Doctor Wants O'Reilly Probe
Clinic Representative Says, 'Our Worst Nightmare Has Happened'
By JOHN HANNA, AP

A doctor seeks a probe after Bill O'Reilly said he got information from abortion patient records.
Watch Video:
High Court Tackles Abortion
Talk About It: Post Thoughts
TOPEKA, Kan. (Nov. 4) - An abortion doctor plans to ask for an investigation of the state attorney general and Bill O'Reilly over comments by the Fox television host that he got information from Kansas abortion records, the doctor's attorneys said Saturday.
Dr. George Tiller said he will ask the Kansas Supreme Court on Monday to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate and take possession of the records of 90 patients from two clinics.
Attorney General Phill Kline obtained the records recently after a two-year battle that prompted privacy concerns. He has said he sought the records to review them for evidence of possible crimes including rape and illegal abortions.
During a Friday night broadcast of "The O'Reilly Factor," the conservative host said a "source inside" told the show that Tiller performs late-term abortions when a patient is depressed, which O'Reilly deemed "executing babies."
O'Reilly also said his show has evidence that Tiller's clinic and another unnamed clinic have broken Kansas law by failing to report potential rapes with victims ages 10 to 15.
A spokeswoman for Kline, who received redacted copies of the records Oct. 24, said Saturday he doesn't know how O'Reilly obtained the information.
"We don't know anything about Mr. O'Reilly's inside source," spokeswoman Sherriene Jones said. "I assumed he was talking about somebody on the inside of the abortion clinics."
Kline, an abortion opponent and Republican in a tight race with Democrat Paul Morrison, was interviewed by O'Reilly during the segment.
"Our information says that on almost every medical sheet -- and obviously we have a source inside here -- it says, 'depression,"' O'Reilly told Kline during the broadcast. "I don't know whether you have that information or not -- I don't know -- but that's what it says."

Pedro Irigonegaray, who represents Tiller and the clinics, said it was "preposterous" that the information would come from an insider at one of the clinics.
"This has been our concern from the beginning, that if he ended up with these records, that just this type of event would occur. Our worst nightmare has happened," Irigonegaray said. "Women in America deserve better than this."
It wasn't clear Saturday whether O'Reilly's source had broken state or federal laws by divulging patient information or whether O'Reilly or his staff had viewed any records themselves. A request to Fox in Washington to interview O'Reilly or someone associated with his show wasn't answered Saturday.
Kline, one of the nation's foremost abortion opponents, has said the targets of his investigation are rapists, sex offenders with child victims, and doctors involved in illegal abortions. Those could include doctors performing illegal late-term abortions or those failing to report abuse of a child.
The clinics had argued that giving the attorney general access to the records would invade patients' privacy.
Shawnee County District Judge Richard Anderson subpoenaed the records at Kline's request in September 2004, concluding there was probable cause to believe they contained evidence of crimes. The documents Kline received were edited so that individual patients could not be identified.

Dear Fans,
Remember, election season is fast approaching. You now have only ONE DAY to distribute propaganda prior to the election. Remember, VOTE EARLY AND VOTE OFTEN, as your fan club membership dictates. The end justifies the means, so use all sources of propaganda willingly and openly. Do not hold back, and do not fear being "outed" for lying. After all, lies exposed AFTER the election mean nothing. Special comment mass e-mailing is key to our victory -- this is not SPAM, since the e-mail will secure victory for the Democrats.

So let me get this straight, in 2 years when the book is released, and it's a different Admin, should't the book be titled "Batshit presumptions and exaggerations made to give fringe Chicken Littles boners that didn't happen"

Did someone actually claim that they are the Top news stories of the day? The man ignores anything that negativiley effects the left, and doesn't allow for a disenting point of view...talk about fascim.
THIS JUST IN!
Fringe Chicken Little Boners think Dude is a Dunce.
ATTENTION ALL MAN TAN FANS!!!
Did any of you Libs ever think that orange man's show MIGHT possibly be more successful and get out of the cellar (with CNBC) IF comedian KO would have some conservatives on a few times a week?
Think about all the successful radio and TV talk shows? Who are they? Rush; Sean; O'Reilly. Any idea as to what they have in common?? C'mon, I know you libs can figure it out! The answer: they are all CONSERVATIVES!
While Edward R Olbermann will never be a conservative, just having some on his show (instead of hillbilly Crawford; the Perfessor; Dana "sans outfit" Milbank) just might bring his ratings up and actually make it a much more interesting show instead of a constant one sided one hour Bush bashing session!

I can think of a bunch of things they have in common. One of the main things they have in common is they appeal to the same mentality as the World Wide Wrestling Foundation. It's the good guys VS. the bad guys and the winner is the one who is the rudest and most able to talk over the other guy. Rush is popular because he appeals to the bigoted hypocrite types and he has no moral highground so it can't be anything more. Sean and O'Reily don't bring back guests that show them up. I wouldn't mind seeing a few inteligent conservatives on but if Keiths show ever turns into a WWWF show with it leaning to the left I would hate it. Why does Fox even pretend to be fair and balanced. Rush doesn't. I stopped watching them long ago. They can have their right wing space. MSNBC is slowly starting to get better and better. Scaraborough will call a spade a spade and I respect him even though he is right wing and says so. Fox is a fraud. Rush is laughable. Drudge has some of the same issues as Haggard and Foley.
I am reminded once again of something. What if Keith was found out to be an Oxycontin addict and was divorced three times and had affairs and viagra on him when stopped by the police? No one has to answer. We know what kind of stuff is already said about his choice of clothes and his tan. Go ahead on now and tune into Rush. Think up some more funny names for Keith while you read the Sludge report.
Help from anyone! I clicked on the link above and read that all around loving and family values Jane Hamsher's lead in to the comments. But I couldn't find anything about the people mentioned in synopsis. Also couldn't find KO's replies.
Many great thanks for any help.

After reading the most hated man at ESPN-Olbyloon's responses to the moonbat 45 chromsome squad , I have come to an even lowwer opinion of the orange man. He's going to make his "special comments" into a book? Will it to be a mispeslled mess of olbytard smear and lies like his last disaster of a book is?
BTW--Joe Wilson just makes the case for IQ testing to be compusive at State. How is it posible that wilson--who spent a career making sure there were back up rolls of toilet paper in the visitors lounge in the embasy,and unstopping clogged johns,is now an expert on international relations ? He is the store brand soda of diplomats.
Back to the orange glow man----IS this how desperate the olbytard is to pawn off a book or two to the short bus gang--they he shows up to hawk his badly written mess of a book on fire dao nuts .com? Sheesh--it's like ripping off the tin cup guy at the escalator at Penn Station.But that's our olbytard.How else could this dunce, this total putz, afford the payola check he gave to clinto6n to give the biggest monica anyone has ever seen on tv? Yup--nothing says toadie --then the olbytoad. I have to say it---Olberman is nothing but a dick head.
For the last time, I don't listen to Rush. Never have, never will. And despite popular belief that all GOPers get their marching orders from Faux news, I seldom watch it. I just think that Olbermann is a hack who is ill-qualified for the job he has. And I think his bias is so apparent that he does not deserve his own show given his immense biases when said show is disguised as a news show which it is not when he is doing his "special comments" every other night. If they will relabel his show as the OPINION show it is instead of trying to push it off as a news show and him off as a newsman, then I'd cease any criticisim of him. Until then, there's Olbermannwatch to blast away at him.
Fringe Chicken Little Boners get fringe chicken little boners by being said they get fringe chicken little boners.
Boo-hoo-friggin'-hoo.

I don't buy that Keith relabeling his show as a opinion show would make you okay with him. Or if he had more qualifications to have his show you be okay with him. What bothers you is what comes out his mouth. You don't like his opinion. Fair enough. Some do.
