As a pleasingly debauched symbol of his transformation into a top-tier, top-paid newsman, Keith Olbermann has bought a sprawling 40th-floor apartment in an Upper East Side Trump condominium.

Keith Olbermann Goes Off the Deep End, Again
Bloggers4Rudy

Don't watch this if listening to the tinfoil hat brigade leader, Keith Olbermann, makes you sick to your stomach. He's really outdone himself with this long winded tirade against Rudy, and the GOP. Olbermann's comments sound like something off a MoveOn.org â€œtruth sheet.â€

Olby is Insane
Absolute Moral Authority

First Giulliani is un-American. I thought it was Republicans who said that, though in general they don't. He goes on to blame Bush through implication for September 11th, as well as blaming, once again through implication, Giuliani for September 11th.

Well Shucks, The Guys Right....
Phil Hendrie's America On Parade

Rudy Giuliani's comment that voting for the Democrats would be tantamount to playing defense against terrorists was greeted with the same bleating and whining that surrounded Imus and his jive-ass joke. The guy simply stated the obvious.

It's a Bird, It's a Plane, it's Olbermann!

Now that Rosie is going off the air, Keith is one of the few broadcasters left with any cojones.

I think I want to have Keith Olbermann's baby

I'm watching the pre-debate madness with Matthews and Anally, and I think Olby just forgot his name for a second. Either that or he is just so bad at ad-libbing that he had to think about it.

His hair definitely looks like a throw rug tonight. Must be the humidity.

You really have your finger on the pulse of this country and what's happening.

Only in Bushworld would longer tours for our troops mean "less stress" for them.

If this wasn’t published directly on the Pentagon’s website, I’d swear it was some kind of parody, meant to make the Bush administration look foolish.

Extended overseas deployments affecting soldiers serving in Afghanistan and other locales overseen by U.S. Central Command should help to alleviate the stress on the Army, a senior U.S. officer in Afghanistan told Pentagon reporters today.

“I’m absolutely confident that that’s going to work and that’ll manage the pressure and the stress on the force,” Army Col. Martin Schweitzer, commander of the 82nd Airborne Division’s 4th Brigade Combat Team, said during a satellite-carried news conference. […]

The tour extensions will provide more predictability and stability for soldiers and their families, [Army Lt. Gen. Raymond T. Odierno] said, noting the policy “will ensure 12 months at home station between rotations.”

As Noah Shachtman, who has a great post on this, put it, “This is entering into ‘Baghdad Bob’ territory, folks. Seriously.”

I thought Donald Trump was one down from Bill O'Reilly, Olbermann's enemy list.

I wouldn't have expected him to choose such a nouveau riche address, but now that I think about it, those wide pin-striped philly shyster lawyer suits of his should have been a clue.

Well, Third Avenue and 69th Street is relatively conveinent, just a block-and-a-half away from the subway ... oh, wait, Keith has had some past problems with that mode of transportation, hasn't he? Guess he'll just have to burn some fossil fuels to get to work and buy some carbon offsets.

I saw a bumper sticker today that reminded me of the braindead OWer's at this site.
It said," I (heart) global warming."

Nuff said.
