"COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN" (8:00 P.M.-9:00 P.M. ET)
Host: Keith Olbermann
Topics/Guests:
Monkeymann was one minute into the opening spiel when gun control was brought up. All you people who had 120 seconds: you lose. Plus will Gonzales "remember his lines" and is he "the new Scooter Libby"? No matter what the news of the day, OlbyPlanet will always find time to distort and defame.
UPDATE: Video & Transcript
#5/#4: The campus shooting. It began in a relatively straight fashion, with reports and a recycled interview with a student witness. #3 was the obligatory "gun control" argument. Oh, and Bush allowed a gun ban to expire, which all but handed the weapon to the killer. Chris Cillizza of the Post bloviated about the impact on the Presidential race (he doubts there will be much).
#2: The Gonzales "scandals" [Dings!]. His testimony will be delayed. "Hard-core right-wing Bush allies" (i.e. Richard Vigurie, who's been out of the loop for years, and Bob Barr of the ACLU) want Gonzo to go. Bush "invoked" 9/11 again. How dare he? E.J. Dionne, another lefty, was asked if Gonzales "will have to fall on his proverbial [Ding!] sword". At one point Dionne said "I'm no Cheney defender". That's the most obvious statement possible for anyone being interviewed on The Hour of Spin. #1: Update and recap on the shooting.
Dogs that did not bark: Because of the major focus on breaking news, we will go easy on all the non-barking canines running around loose on OlbyPlanet tonight. However, we must bring one item to your attention. On Friday's Hour of Spin, Herr Olbermann gave a "worst person" nomination to Malik Shabazz, but put up someone else's picture by mistake. Oops. As he excoriated Shabazz, all that time the screen showed Opio Sokoni. One would think this would covered with a correction, retraction, or apology. Yet that dog did not bark on tonight's Hour of Spin. Ironically, it was just about a year ago that Oralmann spent an entire segment slamming Bill O'Reilly for--you guessed it--putting up an incorrect picture of someone.
Olbermann's book The book that bears Olbermann's name is a stupendous #15,858 at amazon.com, while "Culture Warrior" is #307. (It's that 2-for-$25 sale!) The OlbyTome has no rank at all at Barnes & Noble; O'Reilly's book is #793 there, and is one of the top five books of 2006 per Publishers Weekly. On Friday The Hour of Spin was in its usual also-ran position: third place, though they did eeke out second in the critical, beloved, all-important, coveted "key demo". The O'Malkin Factor beat Olby by more than three to one. Tonight's MisterMeter reading: 1 [LOW]

Keith Olbermann blames Bush for Virginia Tech massacre
The average ‘Interest Level Arc’ of someone with an IQ above room temperature after discovering Olbermann Watch for the first time:
>After 1 Day:
Wow, I can’t believe this many stupid people all come to the same website to rail against a TV show. This must be where Bush’s last supporters have holed up. Keith Olbermann seems to hold very special significance to these people. I’m sure they have their reasons. Perhaps I’ll debate one of them and see what happens.
>After 1 Week:
Well, it is pretty fun making stupid people look even dumber than they would on their own. The two or three folks here that actually try to debate are so close minded and set in their ways it’s amazing they can function in the real world. The rest just keep repeating the same stuff over and over about some ‘playbook’ and how if you say you’re not obsessed with Keith Olbermann, you must be lying about it. I must admit though, it is pretty fun messin’ with them because they do get all riled up.
>After 1 Month:
Well, the novelty of messin’ with the OW village idiots is wearing off. It was fun for awhile, but those guys really have a monopoly on ignorance. It’s actually sort of painful to watch. Even when I prove them wrong again and again, they just keep coming back for more. I’d rather debate someone who has at least enough intelligence to appreciate it when they are wrong. I think the OW Olberidiots actually sort of enjoy being wrong.
>After 1 Year:
I really should stop in and see how the Olberidiots are doing. Well, I’ve got a pretty busy weekend lined up, maybe next week when I have nothing better to do.

Wow, this place is awesome! People who think just like I do. People who talk to the TV just like I do. People who think Olbermann is eeeeevil just like I do. Work? Family? Hobbies? I’d rather be here, with my own kind. I don’t do real well out in the real world. People just don’t understand Olbermann the way I do. It’s up to me to warn the world of the danger that is Keith Olbermann. Maybe I can become a ‘lifer’ like Cecelia. I wonder if Olbermann Watch is hiring.

Did Olbermann refer to Alberto Gonzales as "Fredo" ??
Oh... and trounced in the ratings on Friday, as usual.
LMAO: Your "resume" as a clerk at the local video store/Wal-Mart/kwikie mart would hardly qualify you for a position at Owatch.
And of course Olby would figure out a way to blame this all on Bush.
>LMAO: Your "resume" as a clerk at the local video store/Wal-Mart/kwikie mart would hardly qualify you for a position at Owatch.
Yeah, I know. Because the guys that used to work the overnight shift cleaning the booths at the Adult Arcade already have all the positions filled.
What 'position' does 'Mr. Cox' have you in right now Brandon? Doggy Style?
Leave it to an Olbyloon to have an obession with pornography.
LMAO, it is just as I feared. You have laughed your way right through your ass, appendages, vital organs and have finally laughed a good part of your brain off.
Anyone who would indulge themselves in that long screed of self adulation may not have a measurable IQ.
Is it possible that you laughed yourself down to nothing but spleen?
This is strictly out of concern for you, you understand.
Grammie

Obession? Are we getting angry Brandon? Or perhaps it's difficult to type on all fours...

Wait, don't answer that...
"This is strictly out of concern for you, you understand."
We should be much more concerned for you, Janet. You're always the victim you know.
LMAO- yeah, you nailed it.
Of Course! It's Bush's fault that the gunman murdered 32 students. Thank you Detective Olbermann for another brilliant case solved.
First Brandon Sez:

Apparently something ELSE the Olberidiots have in common: They wouldn't know their 's' from a hole in the ground.
Indierik, is that you? The Indierik who called Ronaldus Magnificus a DRAFT DODGER when he joined the military years before the draft was instituted in 1940 in FDR's admin?
"MILITARY SERVICE OF RONALD REAGAN
Ronald Wilson Reagan enrolled in a series of home-study Army Extension Courses on 18 March 1935. After completing 14 of the courses, he enlisted in the Army Enlisted Reserve on 29 April 1937, as a Private assigned to Troop B, 322nd Cavalry at Des Moines, Iowa. He was appointed Second Lieutenant in the Officers Reserve Corps of the Cavalry on 25 May 1937. On June 18 of that year Reagan, who had just moved to Los Angeles to begin his film career, accepted his Officer’s Commission and was assigned to the 323rd Cavalry.
http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/reference/military.html
"RONALD REAGAN
Commissioned a 2nd lieutenant in the Army Reserve in 1937, Reagan reported for active duty on April 19, 1942. Due to nearsightedness, he was eligible only for limited service. An actor, Reagan was assigned to the Army Air Corps' first motion picture unit to participate in training and combat films. He also made films to raise funds for the war effort. Reagan left active duty December 9, 1945, as a captain and was discharged from the reserve in 1953 as a major.
Reagan retired from acting in 1954, served six terms as president of the Screen Actors Guild, two terms as governor of California and two terms in the White House as 40th president. He was succeeded by his vice president, a World War II Navy veteran, George Herbert Walker Bush.

anonyloon, I was making an observation of a previous post, einstein. I didn't bring it up, she did, einstein.
olbyloons doing what do best, find simple typos, they got nothing else but far left rhetoric. Living up to their names.
"It's Bush's fault that the gunman murdered 32 students. Thank you Detective Olbermann for another brilliant case solved."
Aren't you wingnuts supposed to blame this on video games and violent movies? Your job is to keep the heat off the NRA. Don't you remember?
Olbermann's most vehement defenders are indeed women. Over-the-hill, sexually frustrated women. I've seen pictures of a few of them. Let's just say they were brutually beat with the ugly stick. And I guess the ugly stick must have knocked out any common sense they might have once possessed out of them too. Really we should have more pity on them. But it's just so much fun to piss them off and my, they have been super grouchy today for some reason!

I'm not shocked you're an olbyloon! Living up to your name....Thanks! Shouldn't you be defending muslims?
Victim Janet!! Hello!! I was wondering when you were going to post a response to mine. Great thanks!!
"Shouldn't you be defending muslims?"
Right now I'm much too busy defending the English language from booger eating Bush voters.
Indierik, still waiting for an answer. In case you are afflicted with short term memory loss (I find myself fighting that these days), I will remind you of the question.
Are you the same Indierik who falsely accused Ronald Reagan (in case the term Ronaldus Magnificus went over your head) of being a draft dodger when there was no draft to dodge?
Grammie
Well, there you go again.
I posted an answer several days ago. Since you didn't respond then or now, what am I to think.
Still waiting for a legitimate response.
Grammie
"In case you are afflicted with short term memory loss (I find myself fighting that these days)"
Ahh, you're proving my point. Always the victim in some form.
And where did Reagan spend the war? Hollywood. Where was he assigned? The First Motion Picture Unit. He asked to be transferred there, it wasn't by chance. He's certainly no George H.W. Bush. That is a man I fully respect.
I'm out for awhile. Possibly until tomorrow morning. So don't think I'm ducking any retorts from you wingnuts.
"Well, there you go again."
LOL! I know you just threw this Reaganism in here to get under my skin.
Out!
Krazy Keith's comment regarding the Virginia Tech shootings: "All good things come to an end" Nice job, Mister Sensitivity.
I watched the openning portion of Bill O' Rielly. What is the deal with this person? His "Talking Points Memo" sounds like any other day's talking points memo. I do not know how jaded Bill O' Rielly is to these kinds of events, but he seemed like the same old ... same old tonight.
Merkle 923: I think Keith Olbermann was being sympathetic when he spoke that .
"I'm out for awhile. Possibly until tomorrow morning. So don't think I'm ducking any retorts from you wingnuts.
Posted by: indierik at April 16, 2007 11:04 PM"
Perish the thought. What could possibly give you the idea that we think you don't stay around to answer any hard fact questions?
You state that Ronald Reagan was a draft dodger. The fact that he joined the military voluntarily years before the draft is meaningless to you. And you throw out your justification for such an egregiously inaccurate statement, with no citations to back your claim up, that he spent his service at his request in Hollywood.
Poor little victim, Indierik. Nobody understands that what he says is only what he can crayfish around, when he gets around to it.

I'd stop bragging about watching Fox Noise. Once again it's been shown Fox Noise viewers are the dumbest people in the country.

Colbert: Nothing wrong with stupidity. If it was not for stu[id life forms, there would be no initial species of life in the oceans two billion years ago. I personally like Fox News ... the same shenanigans, different targets.

Complain all you want clear-thinkers, I think it is a pleasure to have an OlbyLoon with a dash of wit post something like that. Sure beats listening to the OlbyLoons do their usual Fox News rants. Kuods to LMAO!
"Men scored higher than women, and older Americans did better than younger, on average. Democrats and Republicans were about equally represented in the most knowledgeable group but there were more Democrats in the least aware group. "
Colbert, you picked the one stat that pleased you out of the survey.
The survey did not identify the break down of audience by the criteria you are crowing about. They did, however, break it down far enough to determine that the Dems, whoever they watch, are the 'dumbest', as you phrased it, people in the world.

Sorry about that. I misstated.

Obama Rama / Royalking: Keith Olbermann is repetitive as well ... just that he decided to talk about something other than partisan politics when when it came down to a national crisis for the openning part of his program and then some. I like that, even if Keith Olbermann is the worst Edward R. Murrow out there, at least he started his show in the appropriate tone for these kinds of things, and not like Bill O' Mansionlly does it with the "I am better than you" schtick night after night.
Nice Janet: I see you picked out the only part of that "far left survey" that was unflattering to Democrats. You left out the part showing that dems were also among the smartest people in America.
And once again....Fox 'News' viewers are among the dumbest people in America.
I think the fact that 85-90% of the people that watch colbert and socialist stewart are on some kind of drug is very telling of the intelligence level. I didn't even have to waste my time reading some left wing survey to tell me that, common knowledge.

Olbermann's ratings are down
He makes fun of Fox
But he gets no response
Just more of the same Melt-down.
"A Nazi supporter", KO claimed.
"O'Reilly should be quite ashamed"
But the facts showed once more
He's a liar to the core
But the loons defend him all the same
Posted by: Obama Watch Us Bicker Formerly in Technicolor, I have to disagree with your characterization of the mass shooting in Virginia as a 'national crisis'.
It is many things. Tragic and devastating, especially for the family and friends of the victims. The local community will also feel and have to deal with its aftermath. And as time goes on we may well learn that is is unique among such events.
But to label it a 'national crisis' cheapens what is truly a national crisis. National crisis should be reserved as a term that reflects that the event has put the entire nation at risk and must be met as such. Perhaps it is a function of the century I lived in, but off the top of my head I can only think of several such events. The sinking of the Lusitania (which might have been a trumped up event), Pearl Harbor and 9/11.
Grammie
Jeff again: "I think the fact that 85-90% of the people that watch Colbert and socialist stewart are on some kind of drug".....LOL
Damn you're dumb!
"socialist stewart"...LOL!
Uh, oh bright one...where did you get your 'fact' that 85-90% of those that watch stewart or Cobert are "on some kind of drug"?
And, Oh Jeff...is it that 'drug' make them the smartest people in America. If so, maybe we should distribute more of it to dummys like you.
And finally Jeff....I thought you said Colbert is a conservative "making fun of the libs"...yeah, thats right...I KNOW you said it!
Jeff....keep on posting....you are a riot!
Ya know some people just love to Cherry pick stuff.
Ya know you guys cherry pick stuff so good there's a few farmers out west that are looking for a few good pickers. But you'll do.
From that dopey editor and pubie hair thing
"Men scored higher than women, and older americans did better than younger on average. Democrats and Republicans were about equally represented in the most knowledgeable group. But there were more democrats in the least aware group."
I think it would have been nice for you boys to tell us you were in on the test. OR Cherry picking again eh guys?
When you listen to Mike you have to say it's one of two things. He's a victim of A.D.D. OR! The Democrats are right about George Bush and no child left behind.
I know what it was! Mike and LAMO and the rest were sitting around 'least aware' of their surroundings, and they had FNC on to laugh at. But what happened was they started to listen and became really confused. And then somebody from pew called. Because everybody knows! Pew doesn't call people on cell-phones.
Now in the pole it doesn't say what kind of people watch FNC. It could be Mike and his buds watching FNC from the 'LEAST AWARE' democratic group. Kool-aid makes you do strange things. Ask Jim Jones.
You boys should read the WHOLE article before you spew stuff and make yourselves look stupid..................AGAIN!
Just looking out for you.
Well Janet, I hope you are right, and this event is not a "national crisis", because if it is, God forbid we react as irrationally and self destrutively as we did to the last "national crisis'.
I didn't even have to waste my time reading some left wing survey to tell me that, common knowledge.

No one was "cherry picking" anything regarding the part about Fox 'News'.
Janet H.: They called it another "Columbine"? I think that also was a national crisis. No too sure what makes something a "national crisis", bu it seems important enough to take up all of the news time.
What a surprise. Keith blames Bush for this tragedy. If only Bush had banned assault riffles the killer would not have been able to buy a HAND GUN illegally. Maybe if he had signed tougher stalking laws, Keith would not be on the TV every night vomiting propaganda. Keith is a disgrace and a sick worthless scum bag.
Sure, queenie.

Puck, just as I also said. Go to the source and Repubs and Libs are equally represented in the most knowledgeable segment of the population. Dems are over represented in the least knowledgeable portion of the population.
There is no breakdown that correlates the 'stupidest' (per Colbert) based on what channel or channels the 'stupid' Dems (per Colbert) watch.
Could these 'stupid' (per Colbert) Dems be in the closest when they watch Fox? :)

Since people are discussing it, here's the actual survey:

There is nothing that we can ban to solve a problem like this. I am sure if we threw out all of the weaponry in the planet --- he would have just killed with his fists. The only solution is clout in the commonplace and in the home. I also think that a smaller human population would decrease the odds of this happening.
Why do all the right-wingers fight tougher laws to make sure criminals don't get guns? The NRA wants no rules at all. They want anyone to be able to sell any guns without any background checks or paperwork. They even complained about, and Ashcroft blocked, attempts to prevent terrorists from buying guns.
Hey Janet Hawkins!
I just took that dopey test over at pew, figures. The only one I got wrong was the minimum wage question. I thought it was still bogged down in the Senate.
But thats easy! I take good care of all my workers. And plus I listen to Jerry Doyle.
Now Mike don't you go listening to Jerry Doyle, because if you do you'll end up walking around the neighborhood mumbling to yourself like Vinnie 'The Chin' Gigante.

Based on the criteria you have raised Anna whoever Smith was a national crisis. You have touched on the point I tried to make. Very few incidents rise to the level of national crisis, thank God. The amount of news coverage in our current times is not a reliable gauge.
Another national crisis just came to mind. When JFK faced Krushschev (?) in the Cuban Missile CRISIS, That was also truly a national crisis. It was only forty years ago, but the 24/7 multiple news channels trying to outdo each other didn't exist then. Many people missed the whole thing and didn't give it a moment's thought. And they and everyone else in the world was on the brink.
I'm not being callous about the overwhelming tragedy that faced those involved today. I am only saying that certain terminology should not be over used to the point that we have no way to express and talk about the truly horrendous that can affect nations.

Factor, if you had two brain cells to rub together, the issue was that the 15-ROUND CLIP (which WAS banned) is now LEGAL because the ban was allowed to lapse. This guy would have not been able to fire as many rounds as he did, as rapidly as he did, using the smaller clip.
I am sure if we threw out all of the weaponry in the planet --- he would have just killed with his fists.
OWUBIT, you have any idea it is to kill ONE person without a weapon, let alone 32? Your "argument" is incredibly and deeply stupid.
I'm feeling kind. Often you complain why I don't address you by your first name.
Now. Back to your post.
"I don't wave a flag. I carry a gun."
Tell me that wasn't you, please.
So I can have both of your posts to shove them down your throat.
"I wear a cowboy hat. And my 40 oz...ehr...44

Tell me that wasn't you, please.
Oh, wait. You are going to go off on some other rant, diverting from your own words.
Go ahead, BUSHWIPE, surprise me.

You're thinking of your lil buddy, lil mikey. He's the one that plays the divert card when asked simple questions that he won't answer because they will expose him for what he is, a FAR leftist, like you, burger king. The only difference between the 2 of you is you have much more hatred in you than lil mikey and lil mikey has a lot of hatred in him.

10 rd clip or 15 rd clip would have made no difference, unfortunately. Don't blame the gun, it's the nut job behind it and the school security and staff. There are a lot of unanswered questions still. It's too soon to play the blame game. If there were shots fired at 7:30 and classes were allowed to continue at 8:00 elswhere on campus, someone needs to be held accountable.
Of course. Just I as fed you, BUSHWIPE.
Off you went to divert from your own words and posts.
How did I know that?
Let's give you another chance:
"I don't wave a flag. I carry a gun"
"I wear a cowboy hat, and my 44 within reach"
Come out and tell us those are not your words.
Come out BUSHWIPE, step right up.
What a fiolthy whore Olbertard is---o n a day when 32 kids are killed by a forigner--that pile od sh-t Olbertard is still playing politics and trying to pin it on Bush and the GOP--what a sh-t olbertard. Showing just how stupid the most hated man ever to work at ESPN is--he tried to blamse the shooting on the fact that the asault gun ban was allowed to die by Bush and the Congress---but the filthy lefty whore olbertard never mentions the fact that the gunman was armed not with assault guns but handguns--illegally obtained guns with the serial numbers filed off.Olberman is a liar--and a fraud.But thst's the currency olby and his far left radical ilk trade in--lies-slander-and smears------just like the guttersnipe he and all of the far left radicals who hate the US are.
Take a hike burger king, go back and look in the archives. Knock yourself out, as your leftist loony friend lil mikey says.
>go back and look in the archives
Why should I? when I have you right here.
Just say "No. Those are not my posts"
C'mon, little BUSHWIPE, here here little BUSHWIPE.
Anyway, proving you a moron 3 times in a row is my daily catch limit.
Off you go BUSHWIPE.
So you may return to make an ass of yourself and your BUSHWIPE friends, all the way to '08.

My God, can Cox and Dollar get any lower just to slime someone? Even if there WAS some wrong in the opinions, now is not the time. Today it was Dollar, and today he turns out to be a disgusting excuse for a human being. Olby made a point about Bush and CONGRESS (nice for Dollar to not say that he said that Congress was a part of that so-called critisism) allowing the gun control thing to expire. Is that really something you could blame him for bringing up? Can you prove Bush didn't? And where did he EVER say that it gave the gun to the killer, and where was the context of the report in this "summary"?
All in all, I'm waiting to see what line this site, these two people won't cross to slime OLbermann (or, for that matter, ANY commentator that doesn't agree to their opinions).

It is not necessary to 'cross' any lines in order to legitimately criticise the Bush Administration. The Bush Administration 'slimed' themselves the first time a long time ago, and continue to do it again and again on almost a weekly basis.
More importantly, they continue to screw ordinary Americans in favor of politics and multi - national corporations as a matter of policy, and MORE, not fewer commentators should be calling them out on all of this.
There is much legitimate criticism that can be leveled against Keith Olbermann, but unfairly 'sliming' the Bush Administration is NOT one of them.

Blaming Bush for the shooting massacre in Virginia isn't "unfairly sliming" him? Saying that "Bush put the gun in his hand" isn't "unfairly sliming" him? What, exactly, would you consider an "unfair slime?"
After Elizabeth Edwards announced the recurrence of her cancer, Rush Limbaugh speculated on his show that day, that the Edwards would wait to see if there was a poll bounce in order to guage whether it would be worthwhile to make the sacrifices needed to continue on with his campaign.
Olbermann rightly took Limbaugh to task for not waiting a day before he proferred this, but then Olbermann immediately politicizes the Va Tech tragedy.
Dark Power:
BOTH Keith Olbermann and Bill O'Reilly went to the "talking points" and covered "news/spin" stories, that frankly SHOULD NOT have been covered yesterday. They BOTH exhibited a creepiness and a love for ratings that went beyond the pale.
Now you are going to nit-pick a right wing Countdown recap on a site called Olberamnn Watch. Go back to the KO forum site and and talk about Olbermann's glasses with the rest of the girls.

Olbermann should have restraining orders against all of his girlie fans. Then again, if he didn't have those girly fans, who would he get to have tawdry one-night stands with him in cheap hotels?
Now the multiple personalities are ANON!
Why do all the right-wingers fight tougher laws to make sure criminals don't get guns? The NRA wants no rules at all. They want anyone to be able to sell any guns without any background checks or paperwork. They even complained about, and Ashcroft blocked, attempts to prevent terrorists from buying guns.
Posted by: Colbert at April 17, 2007 1:08 AM
Why are left-wingers so quick to purpose laws whenever something tragic happens? Why do they think a new law will cure a problem? Why do they think throwing money at a problem will cure it? No gun law would have stopped this from happening. Liberals don't even enforce the laws they create. What good was the fabled Brady Bill in this case? What is funny is that all you left-wingers say that the Bush administration is a dictatorship, that the Patriot Act takes away your civil liberties, and 9/11 was an inside job but then you want the Government to confiscate guns.
"Olbermann should have restraining orders against all of his girlie fans. Then again, if he didn't have those girly fans, who would he get to have tawdry one-night stands with him in cheap hotels?"
No one. Ooooooo. Let's talk about that. Nasty bad boy...Keith is sooooooo sooo bad!
I assume both the 9mm and 22 he had held clips. I watched the press conference this morning and about thirty minutes of the coverage. I heard several students say he took about a minute (sounds long, but under such stress time estimates either way are probably distorted) to reload. But no one was able to act during that time more in the sense that they were shocked into inaction.
I can well understand that. I would think that precious few would not be shocked into any reaction but base instinct for self preservation.
Ten round clips or fifteen round clips, can we say that would have made a difference. It probably could be argued in both directions. Maybe fifteen round clips (if that is what he had) caused more injuries and deaths than ten round clips would have. But then, maybe one or two students with carry permits might have ended it sooner with less lives lost.
As for gun control laws I am surprised that the same people who shout that GB is a dictator and ushering in the Fourth Reich would support such Nazi like legislation. Hitler and his thugs rigorously enforced gun laws enacted by the Weimar Republic in 1919 and then enacted their own even stiffer laws in 1938, thereby disarming the public, especially the Jews. The Jews in Warsaw kept the Nazis at bay for several months, thereby diverting military forces and munitions from the Eastern Front. They did this with a handful of illegally obtained guns.
Would the course of WWII been drastically altered if the citizenry of Europe, especially Germany, had not been disarmed. I don't believe that for a minute. But I do believe that the course may have been altered some to the good and saved some lives.
Grammie
Jeff buddy...in reference to your 11:35 response to my 11:22 post, where exactly did you learn to read and comprehend.... cowboy?
Jeff's (RoyalKing) exact quote was: "Blaming Bush for the Virginia massacre isn't "unfairly" sliming him? Saying that "Bush put the gun in his hand" isn't "unfairly sliming him? What, exactly, would you consider an "unfair slime"?"
First off Jeff, go back and take another peek at my 11:22 post and tell me where I mentioned the Virginia Tech shooting incident?... or how it related to Bush? You won't find it....you know why Jeff you won't find it Jeff?...because it ain't there!
Also Jeff, exactly where did you get the "Bush put the gun in his hand" QUOTE from? Olbermann NEVER said that, and even your hero Johnny didn't directly accuse him of saying it either...but for some reason...YOU did!
Johnny did write that, obviously only in his OPINION, KO IMPLIED that Bush was to blame, but most people would not really consider that an honest interpretation either. In reality, Olbermann said "Bush AND Congress" allowed the statute limiting the number of rounds in a clip to expire, which is 100% true. Nowhere did Keith say or even imply that "Bush put the gun" in the killer's hand.
Jeff, you seem to have an ongoing comprehension problem in both your reading and your writing?
But that's only half of your problem.
You also only hear what you want to hear, whether it was something that was actually said or not.
lil mikey, you must be really dizzy right about now from spinning like a freakin top! First, I never said that you mentioned the Virginia shooting, einstein, I was using that as an example of your referrence to Ulbermahn "sliming" Bush. As usual, you shoot your dumb ass mouth off and, as usual, can't back it up. Ironically, you used the word "comprehension" in your post, but, have no idea what it means. Deny and divert are your only tactics, oh, and lying.
Mike must have come up with the line "it depends on what the meaning of "is" is" for Clinton.
Fact: Mike says it is OK to slime Bush in anyway way one chooses because Bush "deserves it".
Fact: Olbermann slimed Bush by implying that if Bush and Congress had signed the assault weapons ban, the VT killer would not have the guns he used. This backed up by zero evidence from Keith as always.
Fact: Mike you can debate the phrasing of your foolishness all you want but the meaning is clear for all to see. Unfounded attacks on Bush are OK because the ends justify the means.
Factor: "The meaning is clear for all to see"
Not at all Factor, I think for myself. Johnny's implied meaning is clear only for YOU to see....because you Olbyhaters already have your minds made up...before Olbermann ever utters the first word.
Olbermann spoke the truth. It is not at ALL unreasonable to question whether or not the old law might have saved SOME lives in this tragedy. KO also never implied the killer would "not have the guns he used" either, he was simply questioning the number of rounds he would have used per clip had the limit still been 10. An honest question!
Add I see even YOU admit that Johnny once once AGAIN spinning his recap of the program in a way to achieve maximum smear effect. Johnny implied he just said 'Bush", he didn't even imply that he actually said "Bush and Congress" as even you are admitting.
You people are so damned eager to smear someone who's message you abhor that you will stoop to ANY level in order to do it, and you do it over and over again!
Jef, You've done it again! You replied to the first part of my post while completely ignoring the second part, which was an integral part of the entire point I was making.
And the point was once again, Jeff...you quoted something that was never said, either by Olbermann or even by Johnny...which makes it a lie.
Get it now....Jeff?
Once again Jeff....read and COMPREHEND. Even you could do it if you would just try a little harder.
On Meltdown guests always agree
Sycophants are all that we see
There is no debate
It's all about hate
Bootlicking on bended knee.
So what exactly is the proof that lives would have been saved had the killers gun only held 10 rounds instead of 15? The killer had multiple clips and reloaded several times. What evidence does Keith have that the killer used a gun that held more than 10 rounds? What evidence does Keith have that the killer used all his bullets? The killer had knives also, what evidence does Olbermann have that he would not have used the knives once he was out of bullets? What evidence does Keith have that the killer would not have used a pipe bomb or a chlorine bomb if he had not been able to purchase a gun?
Keith smears Bush and Republicans with zero evidence and zero logic.
Factor, Factor, Factor: WHO said anything about 'proof'. Olbermann was asking an honest speculative question. That's what a 'journalist' is supposed to do! He was NOT making a 'factual' statement, as you people keep impying he was doing.
The only 'facts' in this situation is that chips were used and a law that would have limited the number of rounds per clip had been allowed to expire. This is information people should be allowed to have so they can make up their OWN minds about whether or not it has potentially impacted this event or not.
I saw the damned show....and in THIS case al least, all of your criticism IS misplaced.
Real journalists don't speculate. They are there to deliver the facts, something you and Olbermann obviously know very little about.
I was making it easy for you, lil mikey, one point at a time. Even that didn't work, it was still too difficult for you!
Grammie,
I see you dropped the Pew story as soon as I posted the survey. You stepped right in the trap. I knew you weren't smart enough to research it and think for yourself. The numbers show Fox viewers are the dumbest people in the country.
Fox viewers has the same percentage (35%) of high and low knowledge levels. The Democrats (37%) had more in high level than Republicans (36%) and 31% in the low level. The Northeast had the highest percentage for high level and lowest percentage for low level. The South (the GOP's base) was the opposite.
Only 22% of Fox viewers and 24% of O'Loofah's viewers are college graduates. That places them at the bottom.

No Jeff, your the one who needs maximum simplicity, and then you still don't get it.
What you are still missing here is that my entire post was making ONE point, not two!...and you have yet to defend your response, which quoted a lie.
Do you understand the meaning of a quote Jeff? I already know you don't undertand the definition of a lie, but trust me cowboy, read the above posts again CAREFULLY, and maybe you'll figure it out yet.
No probably not....you're way to damned dumb, but I guess you come by it honestly.
"Olby spoke the truth!" This add was paid for by lil mikey who claims he doesn't defend Keefy Ulbermahn or the comedy show Meltdown aired Monday thru Friday at 5pm Pacific time and 8pm Eastern time on More Snot Nosed BroadCasters Cable "News" channel. Please check your local cable or satellite provider for more information. This add does not assume any responsibility for any lies or misrepresentation of the facts that Keefy Ulbermahn spews on a nightly basis.
Brandon: "Real journalists don't speculate".
Wrong again Brandon. 'Real' journalists ask questions based on factual information...they then allow their viewers to draw their own conclusions.
In THIS case, thats exactly what Olbermann did.
You people obviously don't like the idea of gun control at all, so even the question offends you, but thats YOUR problem. The question is GOING to be asked, whether you like it or not!
"But then, maybe one or two students with carry permits might have ended it sooner with less lives lost."
This is the worst possible consideration that is coming out of this whole event so far. Take all the chemical-drenched adolescents, as they progress through what is perhaps the most emotionally confusing time of their lives, and scatter some guns among them. So we can limit the once-a-decade nutcake to 22 deaths instead of 33. Right on. There is a reason these things happen in schools.
I guarantee you the students with the most interest in packing a gun while reading Camus are the ones we least want to have them.
Here's a radical thought: Maybe you really just can't do anything about this kind of madness other than watch out for it. There are always warning signs, and they are a lot easier to read than trying to figure out some grass-roots military defense. Maybe by trying to offer a structural response, (by either gun control, or proliferation) you will make it worse. 9/11 brought us Iraq. Just a reminder.
Oh Jeff...or he who loves to dance around questions he doesn't like:
WHEN are you going to defend your "Bush put the gun in his hand" misquote? YOU'RE the one who posted this lie, now how about defending it cowboy?
lil mikey, english 101-asking a question and speculating are not the same, look them up. There you go, spin, spin, spin. Wheeeeeeeeeeee!

This is a silly subject to say the least, but just for the sake of argument: if Democrats and Republicans are equally represented in the "aware group" and Democrats are over-represented in the "least aware group", then wouldn't many people who are registered Democrats (perhaps not particularly political) have to be watching FOX News?
Too, when you compare the difference in audience size between all the cable channels.. with FOX having the largest by far..couldn't it easy be assumed that THIS difference would affect the numbers? Especially when you consider that the majority of pop. is likely to be nonpolitical and not particularly politically aware.
Couldn't this also explain the higher number for the Democrats in the "least aware" category, since there are more registered Dems than Republicans?
Jeff: Your QUOTE remember: "Bush put the gun in his hand"....remember this lie you misquoted at 11:35. How about addressing it please....cowboy!
Cecelia regarding the Pew poll: "this is a silly subject to say the least"...LOL

Do you understand the difference between a linking verb and an action verb? Then what kind of pronoun follows a linking verb? Yes, that is right, a subjective pronoun, not an objective one. I is the subjective, me is the objective. Therefore, am (a linking verb) requires the subjective pronoun I.

This was a university ran as a liberal utopia. Gun-control, sensitivity training, tollerance of all views no matter how perverted and the evils of wealth and whites instuction daily.
Leftist can't blame gun control laws as VT had the leftist dream, a zero-tolerance toward guns ownership!
Did he know he was breaking liberal law by having that gun on campus???
This is the first time I've been to this site, and I'm pretty sure it will be the last. Keith Olbermann may be less than perfect but Bill O'Reilley is demagogue of the lowest sort. It's no wonder Fox News viewers are the poorest informed people around.
"letists can't blame gun control laws as VT had the leftist dream, a zero tolerance toward guns ownership"
Yes, they can because this nut bought the gun legally under existing VIRGINIA law. Virginia tech's policy had nothing to do with it.
And, by the way, I'm not even a gun control advocate. I'm just pointing out the fallacy of your statement.
Colbert, is that what you call being a dishonest broker, or in the vernacular a cheat, laying a trap. Why am I not surprised?

The info you referenced was a very short four or five paragraph article that I now know cherry picked the much larger survey. In addition, you substituted the word 'dumb' for knowledgeable and cherry picked even further. I pointed out a stat that you ignored and observed that there was no correlation for party affiliation with regular watched news sources.
You then gave us the url for the actual PEW survey graphs and writeup:
http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?ReportID=319
You followed that up with a self congratulatory gothca that I can't think for myself while you misstated not only the factual position of Fox viewers in the survey, but again substituted your own term 'dumb' for theirs.
Based on the tables in the PEW writeup one can only conclude that the dumbest (per Colbert) people in the country are Democrats who list Fox as one of their regular sources for news.
There are some other points that can be made from the survey. O'Reilly viewers are in the very smartest (per Colbert) of Americans. Rush listeners are way up there also. MSNBC viewers are never mentioned. Could they fall below dumb ( per Colbert)? That must be it.

Janet, I know you aren't surprised by the spin and blatant dishonesty of colbert. What's funny is lil mikey was defending it like it was etched on marble by our forefathers.
I've found that it's virtually impossible to have a rational gun law debate with a lefty. To understand lefty "logic," you have to be willing to think like a six-year-old.
For example, "gun free" zones are nothing more than "sitting duck" zones, but they simply cannot grasp that concept.
Lets all go to Fantasyland for a moment and believe that by simply by passing a new law we would keep a gun out of the hands of a crazy person. Timothy McVay didn't use a gun. Would that person, intent on killing large numbers of people not have built a bomb instead? Or maybe just plowed through a crowd with his SUV?
I think I would have a better chance of stopping a gunman than I would a mad bomber or runaway SUV driver. Well, maybe not if I were in a "sitting duck zone."
Liberals refuse to acknowledge that nothing keeps someone from obtaining a gun who really wants one. And as Firebuck points out, if someone is determined to carry out mass-destruction, there's nothing that is going to stop them either. Virginia did require criminal background checks but no checks can be done to determine if someone is lying when they indicate they haven't been committed for mental illness, which is what Cho did. He lied and there's no double-checking to see if that's correct or not due to privacy laws in the U.S. Even when there are laws in place for screening, people can still lie and obtain a weapon.
Mike above seems to think that the gunman having a legal gun is THE problem. As if such a lunatic would not use an illegal gun. He also states that "Virginia Tech's (gun free) policy had nothing to do with it."
To the contrary, it EVERYTHING to do it! The "gun free" policy is why all would-be heroes are unarmed.
Imagine what might have happened if Liviu Librescu, who was killed by the Virginia Tech shooter while trying to hold a door shut so some of his engineering students could escape, had a gun with him that day.

No fair, Firebuck. More guns in the classroom under the auspices of a permit to carry a concealed weapon could never make a difference. Why that might lead to the death of mass murderers before they committed, well, mass murder.
I can't believe there are such Neanderthals in the world today. All we need are more 'Gun Free Zone Laws". If we would quit wimping out on these types of laws the country would be totally safe.

Firebuck, the libby's don't want to hear facts. They are programmed to repeat the same ole far left talking points. It is undeniable fact that if the teacher had a gun, only the prozac killer would have died.
"It is undeniable fact that if the teacher had a gun, only the prozac killer would have died"
Lets repeat the key words in this silly post once again once again: "undeniable fact"....ROFLMAO!
lil mikey, tha's your 1st hypocritical post of the day, you're lagging.
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff:
You might want to try describing exactly what portion of my last post is 'hypocritical'? Hint; It might be helpful if you looked up the meaning of the word "hypocritical' before you respond.
While you're at it, you might also look up the word 'undeniable' as in "undeniable fact" as well.
Damn you're funny!
There you go, proving your hypocrisy, again! Avoiding the debate at hand with your desperate diversions. Your problem is you spew so much you can't keep track of your own spew, it just constantly flows, like a sewer in a big city, never ending crap! Socialist crap, correction.
Well Jeff, I just can't help you.
Obviously you never looked up what the word 'hypocrisy' means either. Hint...it's a variation of the word 'hypocritical', which you should hve looked up before responding.
Now I'll give you another couple of additional words that you need to look up before throwing them again in my direction...1) - Debate, D E B A T E...(hint: you don't do it), & 2) - Socialist, S O C I A L I S T.
Obviously, you don't know what any of these words actually mean because you keep misusing all of them................LOL
lil mikey=self-righteous even when he is wrong! You are all 3, you just won't admit it. It has been proven countless times, not by just me, either. You're little "just me" spin won't work. Telling me to look up words=ironic.
Olbermann Watch is still the #1 Keith Olbermann blog in the world....Ohmahgawd! The whole wide world?
And Jeff is the funniest blogger on the #1 Keith Olbermann blog in the whole wide world....even though he really doesn't mean to be.
You go, Yosemite Sam!
I think booby is rubbing off on ya'. You guys should watch something besides nickelodeon. I guess if you're not allowed to touch the remote, you don't have any choice.
Wait a just a darn minute Jeff! According to you, I AM booby. You mean I'm rubbing off on myself?
Are you flip flopping on us again Jeff?
No, you're thinking of your hero, Dingy Harry. "The war is lost" says he. Then, he says, "the war is lost if....."
And who might be "Dingy Harry" Jeff? Is he your very own talking horse?
April 24, 2007 -- WASHINGTON - A tough U.S. Marine stationed in one of the most hostile areas of Iraq has a message for Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid: "We need to stay here and help rebuild."
In raw and emotional language from the bloody front lines, Cpl. Tyler Rock, of the 1st Battalion, 6th Marines, skewered Reid for being far removed from the patriotism and progress in Iraq.
"Yeah, and I got a quote for that [expletive] Harry Reid. These families need us here," Rock vented in an e-mail to Pat Dollard, a Hollywood agent-turned-war reporter who posted the comment on his Web site, www.patdollard.com.
"Obviously [Reid] has never been in Iraq. Or at least the area worth seeing . . . the parts where insurgency is rampant and the buildings are blown to pieces," Rock wrote.
This would be your hero, Dingy Harry. mikey.
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff:
Harry Reid (thats his correct name, child) has dissapointed me as well, but for far different reasons. He has not been nearly aggressive enough in standing up to this roque administration that is sending young American soldiers to their deaths in droves for no coherent reason at all.
And Jeff, as has been proven at least 10,000 times before, any one of us can find numerous quotes from soldiers to support our positions, because they, like everyone else, are not of one mind.
