    A Moment of Truth from Keith Olbermann

    Sometimes even Keith lets the truth slip out...

    HA! That's was great. A refreshing moment of candor from Oralmann.

    But sadly, noone in the media will report that it was said, nor comment about the journalistic implications it underscores.

    It's also sad (and hypocritical) that KO would probably reserve a WP nomination for any comparable revelation made by "Bill-O" about FOX News.

    Notice how he also says "why did we do it that way"

    > Fox News? You mean the ONLY station that didn't cover the Democratic response to the president last night?

    Um, Why don't you tell the truth, 1. Fox News did carry the Dem response, and tossed in an interview with Obama for good measure. B. You're drifting off topic. Please address the startling admission made by Keith Olbermann in this video.

    -->Fox News?
    You mean the ONLY station that didn't cover the Democratic response to the president last night?
    That Fox News ?
    -------------------------

    At least when you read the Media Matters talking piles you can read them correctly!

    Sheeesh!

    He was upset that "the Breck Girl" paid for that ad, knowing he and MSNBC would have gladly run it for free. He aides all of the Democrats as well as our enemies.

    He was upset that "the Breck Girl" paid for that ad, knowing he and MSNBC would have gladly run it for free. He aides all of the Democrats as well as our enemies.

    > It was reported by more than one network that they didn't.
    I'll take their word for it. You've been proven wrong too many times.

    LOL! I defy you to cite one report by any of the networks that claims Fox News didn't carry the Dem response.
    And you say I'M proven wrong? Hahaaaaa! What a maroon!

    Wow, that was really picking pepper outta fly shit.

    And to think, Edwards' breaking rank with his Dem buddies might actually be news-worthy enough to warrant a fraction of the coverage than, say, Red-Truck Fred's relentless roll-up to his candidacy.

    Please try again.

    I watched the Democratic response on Fox, what the hell are you talking about?

    In fact Inside Cable News which is linking to this very post,

    I thought this to be very interesting, almost TWO MILLION more people watched the Democratic response to President Bush’s address than they did on MSNBC.

    Fox had 1.4 Million more viewers watching the Democrat response than CNN.

    Inside Cable News

    FNC Democratic Response- 2,957,000 viewers

    CNN Democratic Response- 1,526,000 viewers

    MSNBC Democratic Response- 1,102,000 viewers

    W's core tuned in for reassurance.

    The rest of us already knew what he was going to say.

    Oh no, 186, you must be lying. "Why don't you think" says "more than one network" has reported that Fox News did NOT carry the Dem response. We're just waiting for him to cite those network reports. Obviously you're lying, ICN is lying, oh, and the Nielsen rating services are lying too.

    Don't you realize? "Why don't you think" knows better because this site has been "proven wrong so many times". Hahaaaaa!

    Thank you 186 and Johnny. I thought I was seeing things when I saw that Democratic reponse on Fox!

    The whole "fox thing" is another Media Matters hoax, misleading people because some of the Fox TV networks broke away but told their viewers to go to Fox News.

    You have to ask Why don't you think, why don't you think? Does he even know the difference between Fox (Simpsons and American Idol) and Fox News? Is he aware that Fox broadcast is not programmed by Fox News, that they are two separate entities? More to the point, does he always say stupid things he knows nothing about because he (mis)read talking points about something he didn't even see? I'm starting to wonder if WDYT might actually be our Keith.

    186,

    That's great for the viewers using cable or satellite.

    The other networks, however, aired it without punting to another vehicle altogether. Might as well have told the viewers to check out the other networks for their coverage of the Dem Response.

    Kinda shabby and unprofessional in my book, regardless which party's response is cut from the same feed as the president's speech.

    Equal time? You decide. :)

    -->That's great for the viewers using cable or satellite.


    Who the hell else is there? If your still adjusting "rabbit ears" but have the ability to post here I don't know how I can help you.

    But I fell your pain...I'm pissed they did not simulcast it in Morse Code and Smoke Signals
    :-(

    oops...feel

    186,

    You should travel more.

    It's a great country we live in, however not everyone has the same amenities we do for a variety of reasons (economic, geographic, etc.)

    Scarp the argument about basic access for a moment and consider the formatics alone. Basically bumping coverage to an entirely different channel, albeit on the same network, than the other Majors does send a message, intended or not, that Fox doesn't seem to value the broadcasting precept adhered to by the industry.

    I'm trying to avoid judgment here, but that's the way it seems.

    KO admits MSNBC is biased in favor of Dems..hell has frozen over. :)

    The other truth is Edwards has been treated fairly by FOX on the over 30 times he appeared right up to Jan when he started this boycott FOX debate thing.

    Oh and I love the irony that FOX will be the network to provide the video feed for the Dem convention..Karmas a bitch ain't it John?.

    Also you have to be an real MSNBC kool aid drinker not to recognize how hypocritical their being by running the Edward's ad after refusing to air the Pro-war/Troop ad because of the "politics".

    Again, Edwards' breaking rank with his Dem buddies might actually be news-worthy, not requiring an ad purchase on any channel.

    Just curious, but did Edwards or his ad appear on Fox that night?

    Is there a link for the Pro-war/Troop ad?
    I'd like to see it myself.

    I think a business has a right to accept and refuse advertising.
    Of course, you may chose to run your own network differently. :)

    MSNBC didn't like John Boehner's voiceover on the ad.

    I think it was secrect Olby speak code.

    Please Mr. Breck Girl, come on my show.

    I saw on ICN where FNC got the highest rating with the Demo response.

    Someone should change their name to.

    Why don't you think before you post on this site?

    I didn't watch Johnny Breck Girl, There were unconformed reports that he was flashing 1-800-LAWYERS along the bottom of the screen. Was that true?

    I really wanted to put the loons in a good mood this morning.

    I saw a poll where George Bush has rose in the positive ratings to 37%. Still not great but moving in the right direction.

    But the big shock was Congress, in this poll rose to 32%!

    But alas, I had to throw the poll out.

    I could not believe it.

    It was an FNC poll.

    And you know what those know-it-all loons have tolds us about Faux (don't they ever get tired of printing that) News.

    "Fox News?

    "You mean the ONLY station that didn't cover the Democratic response to the president last night?

    "That Fox News ?"

    I like seeing mental midget (why) look like a silly rube once again. Fox TV network stations did not air the Democrat party response....FOX NEWS did. The lie site, MEDIAMATTERS intended to leave the impression of journalistic bias, but they failed to do so for those that have an IQ greater than 55.

    Local Fox stations are not going to do what a cable news organization does....just like MSNBC does not direct NBC affiliate programming.

    The FOX JOURNALIST anchor covering the address, I believe it was Smith, announced continuing coverage on FOX NEWS while local stations were going to their regular programming, so viewers could decide if they wanted to hear the democrats' pathetic response....and it seem they did....look at FOX NEWS ratings for the democrat response coverage (posted by 186 at 2:16AM).

    Don't worry leftists, your propaganda got out and it was covered by great and professional journalists, objectively, as usual, on FOX NEWS.

    BTW, I will be waiting to see if the leftist ruling elite back up their rhetoric with constitutional war fund cuts. I doubt they will and Bush will get his total funding.

    Poor mental midget....caught again not thinking on his own and regurgitating leftist propaganda. You and mental midget wanna-be (AAP) are sad deluded shills for the democrat party, aren't you?

    And this is my post today, the 1,599th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq.....

    I am cee, good night and good luck.

    "I'd tell you that the Democrats are talking a good game, but they're not even doing that. Everybody in Congress has to understand something: If they continue to fund this war, it's not just the President who owns it. They own it, too." Sgt. Liam Madden

    "There were a few tense moments, however, including an encounter involving Joshua Sparling, 25, who was on crutches and who said he was a corporal with the 82nd Airborne Division and lost his right leg below the knee in Ramadi, Iraq. Mr. Sparling spoke at a smaller rally held earlier in the day at the United States Navy Memorial, and voiced his support for the administration's policies in Iraq. Later, as antiwar protesters passed where he and his group were standing, words were exchanged and one of the antiwar protestors spit at the ground near Mr. Sparling; he spit back." NYT 1/28/07

    "I think the Vietnamese are better off in Vietnam," George McGovern - NEWSWEEK

    "Lefties: Leave these pathetic drowning rats alone to stew in each other's juices. Get yourselves out in the street and fight this criminal administration in ways that really mean something, and that are noted by more than a handful of keyboard heroes!" Sir Loin of Beef

    "American liberals need to face these truths: The demand for self-government was and remains strong in Iraq despite all our mistakes and the violent efforts of al Qaeda, Sunni insurgents and Shiite militias to disrupt it." DEMOCRAT Bob Kerrey

    "If we end up saying that because these people are committing these acts of terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan, that we shouldn't have done the removal of Saddam or the removal of the Taliban, then we are making a fundamental mistake about our own future, about security, about the values we should be defending in the world." TONY BLAIR

    "You can't bring the troops home if you give George Bush $100 billion to wage this war. You're not supporting them. You're keeping them in harm's way." CINDY SHEEHAN

    "There is no doubt ... that Al Qaeda is operating in Iraq. There is no doubt that we've had to take very strong measures against them. And there is no doubt that the Iraqi security forces have got to be strong enough to be able to withstand not just the violence that has been between the Sunni and the Shia population and the Sunni insurgency, but also Al Qaeda itself." GORDON BROWN

    "People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there." OSAMA BIN LADEN

    "Al Qaeda really hurt us, but not as much as Rupert Murdoch has hurt us, particularly in the case of Fox News. Fox News is worse than Al Qaeda--worse for our society. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan ever was."
    KEITH OLBERMANNFox News?

    The Olbyloons believe whatever they read at Media Matters, from the Kos Kids, and the DUmmies and never question whether it's actually true or not. If they said it, it's GOSPEL! Just like what they hear spewing forth from their beloved idol, Olby. And the bias doesn't bother them in the slightest. Even when it's dead-wrong!

    Chuck Hagel - one of the few Republican legislators to have actually served in combat, and who has NOT served President Bush as a grovelling mind-slave - said on Bill Maher last night that General Petraeus' testimony was:

    "not only a dirty trick, but its dishonest, hypocritical, dangerous, and irresponsible. The fact is this is not Petraeus' policy, its Bush's policy".

    ..and just what does Senator Hagel think of Bush's policy?

    "I think that this war policy, where we are today, and the coninuation of this policy s the biggest foreign policy blundrer in the history of our country"


    Sounds like a pretty firm accusation of "Betrayal" to me.

    Well Phari-cee, just how deep into the Godless, totalitarian Stalinist ideology of the American leftist elites has Hagel plunged?

    Hagel has responded in the past to some of my letters with hand-written note, so I believe that this is a man capable and willing to listen anthink. I think I'll begin to pressure him to caucus with the Democrats for the remainder of his term - or at least until Bush and Cheney are impeached and chained in stress positions.


    Isn't there a huge anti-war rally today somewhere?

    I clicked on CNN.com, and even the propaganda arms of the left.....MSNBC.com and The New York Times and see no reporting about the amassig throngs of regular Americans demanding immediate withdrawal from Iraq.

    Where is mental midget, wanna, Mike and Sir Loin of Milquetoast with their reports from this gathering? I look forward to hearing about all of the normal people there from all walks of life....blah, blah, blah....

    I also want to know about the treatment of the counter protestors.....

    any spitting upon veterans?
    any defacement of monuments or recruitment stations?
    any violence?

    I expected emotional pictures of die-ins on the major networks this AM....I was disapointed.

    Oh well, popular support for immediate withdrawal that the fringe left demands seems to be a mirage.....I guess their ruling elite will once again feel this on their upraised finger in the wind and vote for more money to go to the war effort.....

    Tsk, tsk, tsk.

    Stop the war!......Cut the funds!
    Impeach Bush and Cheney!

    And this is my post today, the 1,599th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq.....

    I am cee, good night and good luck.

    Hagel is wrong, just like anyone who feels there has been manipulation on the part of a professional military servant without hard evidence. Opinion only, Loin, and that is why I have no respect for such rhetoric from politicians.

    Supporting a policy then pulling the rug out from under these great servants is also wrong. General Petraeus has been consistent in his opinion about Iraq since before his SENATE CONFIRMATION. Those now complaining about Petraeus are hypocrites if they voted for him.....I even made the observation on this same site at the time.....

    "Why are the left's ruling class voting for a man like Petraeus who obviously holds an opinion that the mission in Iraq is militarily sound and victory is possible?"

    No, Loin, Hagel and the rest of the Senators who voted for him to take over leading in Iraq then have no ground to stand on now making such accusations without evidence that he is only a mouthpiece of Bush.

    It is intellectually dishonest and without merit.....and sickening.

    Try another avenue of attack, Loin...This one is not worthy even of mental midget and wanna.

    Aren't you supposed to be DC this weekend, Loin?

    Aren't you supposed to be *in* DC this weekend, Loin?

    I'm making a new sign as I write, cee - not for the Washington Rally this time, but for one of the many occurring across the "Homeland" in solidarity. I attend at least one march/rally every week.

    No coverage? No shit - the corporations that own the media and suck fortunes from our treasury are not interested in displaying such messages aimed at curtailing htier bottom line - MSNBC is not exception. When I was in Washington with 300,000 other anti-war patriots ABC gave it a total of 24 seconds of coverage - showing only footage of one clutch of atypical whack-jobs dressed in flamboyant costumes. Forget about any coverage of the several large groups of anti-war vets marching with us dressed in fatigues, or the hundreds of thousands of diverse, average Americans who were also there.

    Then they spent 30 seconds showing the Total of 28 counter-protesters. Equal time, right?

    I'm proteting in a college town today - one of my signs reading "Stop the war FAST: Draft Rich Republican kids". The number of verbal fights I get in with this one is phenomenal, and the petulent sputtering of these lazy, priviledged punks who take exception - but can't think their way trough to a logical response any more than can you, Phari-cee - warms my heart like a shot of 16-year old Islay.

    My new sign reads "Enough with the lies: No War with Iran".

    Maybe I'll make another real quick synopsizing Hagel's comments that I posted above...

    Keith should know why Edwards picked MSNBC -- with no recent Ann Coulter attacks to help raise pity money, the financially-strapped Edwards had to go where the lowest ad rates were. And time after time, ratings results have shown that MSNBC's numbers are even worse than normal when it comes to breaking news or major events, where liberals tune to CNN, conservatives tune to Fox, and the coverage and analysis from Keith and Chis get roughly the same ratings as those overnight infomercials.

    "No, Loin, Hagel and the rest of the Senators who voted for him to take over leading in Iraq then have no ground to stand on now making such accusations without evidence that he is only a mouthpiece of Bush.

    It is intellectually dishonest and without merit.....and sickening."

    Phari-cee's idea of integrity: never learn and DO NOTHING! He lives by it.

    Would you say what you wrote to Hagel's face, Phari-cee? Of course not - that would break the pact you have made with your fascist overlords promising that you will remain totally innactive and suppine. I've bellowed the harshest of my criticisms of your fetish/president to the back of Bush's head - because that's all he would give us - but I am not afraid of cowardly tyrants.

    Aren't you supposed to be *in* DC this weekend, Loin?

    The 29th, Phari-cee. Perhaps you will show up so I can spit on you.

    Is there spittle on your monitor, mental midget....your post conveys agitation!

    You claim I will say, "The democrats made him do it !"


    ###
    Nothing Bush has done or will do is because of the left's ruling elite....They are 180 degree's from Bush's position on national security. I am only holding them responsible to their rhetoric and promises to bring the troops home "now" and have stated the fact that the only way the legislative branch can constitutionally move soldiers is.....

    Through appropriations or lack there of

    Impeaching and removing the executive

    Period. You and the rest of the left spin and sputter about Bush who is clearly not going to change, while your leaders do not use the tools at their legal disposal to affect a change in policy.

    This is why I call you mental midget....you believe what your elite tells you (and they are lying).....that they need republican support to affect change....they don't....they are a majority in both chambers and hold the purse strings....cut the funds and the military policy will fall.

    Furthermore, if the left is right about Bush lying and Cheney lying and shredding the constitution, I am sure showing this evidence will spark demands that they both be removed from office. The Congress could then impeach and remove Bush and Cheney, and Pelosi can make the decisions regarding troop deployments and military appropriation requests.

    Come now, mental midget....stop changing the subject to Bush....he leaves in 16 months and has been consistent in his policy. The democrat leadership is failing you and you continue to allow Bush to do EVERYTHING he wants...have a surge, continue the surge, etc....Get out there with Loin and demand action!

    Oh, and your quotes, they are not lies.....Bush's assessment of the progress in Iraq is correct and your "fact checks" are more of the same inconsequential garbage that will not make one dent in his policy or public support for it. Remain in the 27% dead end caucus, mental midget.....you seem right there.

    Try staying on the subject, mental midget....what about your "FOX NEWS did not cover the democrat's response" mistake...Are you gonna offer a mea culpa and show you're better than that liar, President Bush?

    Stop the war!......Cut the funds!
    Impeach Bush and Cheney!

    And this is my post today, the 1,599th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq.....

    I am cee, good night and good luck.

    "I'd tell you that the Democrats are talking a good game, but they're not even doing that. Everybody in Congress has to understand something: If they continue to fund this war, it's not just the President who owns it. They own it, too." Sgt. Liam Madden

    "There were a few tense moments, however, including an encounter involving Joshua Sparling, 25, who was on crutches and who said he was a corporal with the 82nd Airborne Division and lost his right leg below the knee in Ramadi, Iraq. Mr. Sparling spoke at a smaller rally held earlier in the day at the United States Navy Memorial, and voiced his support for the administration's policies in Iraq. Later, as antiwar protesters passed where he and his group were standing, words were exchanged and one of the antiwar protestors spit at the ground near Mr. Sparling; he spit back." NYT 1/28/07

    "I think the Vietnamese are better off in Vietnam," George McGovern - NEWSWEEK

    "Lefties: Leave these pathetic drowning rats alone to stew in each other's juices. Get yourselves out in the street and fight this criminal administration in ways that really mean something, and that are noted by more than a handful of keyboard heroes!" Sir Loin of Beef

    "American liberals need to face these truths: The demand for self-government was and remains strong in Iraq despite all our mistakes and the violent efforts of al Qaeda, Sunni insurgents and Shiite militias to disrupt it." DEMOCRAT Bob Kerrey

    "If we end up saying that because these people are committing these acts of terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan, that we shouldn't have done the removal of Saddam or the removal of the Taliban, then we are making a fundamental mistake about our own future, about security, about the values we should be defending in the world." TONY BLAIR

    "You can't bring the troops home if you give George Bush $100 billion to wage this war. You're not supporting them. You're keeping them in harm's way." CINDY SHEEHAN

    "There is no doubt ... that Al Qaeda is operating in Iraq. There is no doubt that we've had to take very strong measures against them. And there is no doubt that the Iraqi security forces have got to be strong enough to be able to withstand not just the violence that has been between the Sunni and the Shia population and the Sunni insurgency, but also Al Qaeda itself." GORDON BROWN

    "People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there." OSAMA BIN LADEN

    "Al Qaeda really hurt us, but not as much as Rupert Murdoch has hurt us, particularly in the case of Fox News. Fox News is worse than Al Qaeda--worse for our society. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan ever was."
    KEITH OLBERMANN


    SLOB,

    Since Kucinich is your boy, I must assume that his views are also yours. Dennis the Menace hung out with Assad Junior, the opthamalogist, in Syria a few days ago. I didn't hear Kucinich complain about the fact that Syria has made another country, Lebanon, a vassel state of Syria for about a quarter of a century. Syria is behind the assassinations of Lebanese politicians who "dissent" from Syrian views on things.

    So are you and Kucinich and the government of Syria allies with each other?

    "The 29th, Phari-cee. Perhaps you will show up so I can spit on you."


    ###
    No thanks, Loin....Don't you remember our conversation about sodomy and the oropharyngeal transmission of HPV, as well as other nastier critters....I really do not want the exposure especially with you and your lovely wife still refusing CDC recommended adult STD screening.

    I will reply to your new chickenhawk argument shortly.....

    Poor anon and mental midget....."Bush is a liar" is is your only response to a mountain of evidence that their political ruling class is playing you for rubes? That even though there is a liar in The White House and people are dying needlessly in Iraq, all your elite can muster is rhetoric.

    No guys, as an American who supports the President along with millions of my fellow Americans, I am not on the dark side....I am participating in democracy and following the plans laid out by our founders that were as clear and noble as the mission in Iraq.

    You on the other hand, enjoy to play in a sandbox instead of affecting real change reflective of your ideology. Come on now, there are rallies to attend! Get out there and move your elected officials to action! I am a part of what Sir Loin of Milquetoast called, "pathetic drowning ratss." Your satisfaction in labeling me does little for that next soldier that will "die for a lie."

    You all are much too easy today. Did you get enough sleep last night?

    So are you and Kucinich and the government of Syria allies with each other?

    Posted by: Rico at September 15, 2007 10:47 AM


    You can count on Rico for lodging a stupid reactionary brain-fart every time. Diplomacy does not infer "alliance", unless you're a binary goon who thinks in big, motionless blocks.

    Do you want me to list the many, many Republican legislators who have over the past several years responsibly visited Syria in an effort to maintain essential international dialogue?

    Thank you, Johnny Dollar, for all you do on this site!!

    Olbyloon Blatanly revealed his and MSNBC's bias by talking about running the Breck Girl's Ad.

    Maybe he was off last night getting ready to crosss-dress and march with Code Pink today.


    BTW, can anyone remember the last time you saw him or anyone from the Liberal (Democrat) Party, especially their leaders SMILE. Anyone who hates their country as much as these people do have to hate themselves, constant DOOM & GLOOM.


    A bright Smile is the most convincing form of communication and persuasion ever devised by the gods.

    By: Anonymous

    No guys, as an American who worships unquestioningly the President along with millions of my fellow Americans, I am not on the dark side....I am participating in idolatry and following through my paralyzed inertia the plans laid out by our fetish, and I will never serve my country in Iraq.

    SLOB,

    I will repeat the question. Are you and Kucinich and the government of Syria allies with each other? Do you support the governent of Syria?

    Why don't you think - weren't you COMPLETELY discredited earlier in this thread?

    YOU claimed (repeatedly) that Fox News didn't air the Democratic response. Then, when confronted with the facts- you disappeared.

    You're a nut.

    You're a nut.


    ###
    Yes, mental midget does frequently show some psychotic tendencies.

    Oh and Loin, once again your BWFD (Bush Worship/Fetish Disorder) is not operative in over 30% of the US population, nor for me....I simply agree with his ideology, in general, and his Iraq policy.

    Poor leftists.....all hung up here on OLBERMANN WATCH with me, a pathetic drowing rat, while their fringe cohorts really need more numbers for their rallies.

    I will repeat the question. Are you and Kucinich and the government of Syria allies with each other? Do you support the governent of Syria?

    Posted by: Rico at September 15, 2007 11:15 AM


    Simple answer to an embarrassingly simple question from a willful simpleton:

    No.

    "Oh and Loin, once again your BWFD (Bush Worship/Fetish Disorder) is not operative in over 30% of the US population, nor for me....I simply agree with his ideology, in general, and his Iraq policy."


    Prove me wrong; is there anything - ANYTHING - on which you have some disagreement with your tarnished fools-gold idol?

    I'm off to disturb the masses of brainless, irresponsible and largely Republican youth at ne of uour nation's most respected institutions of higher consumerism. Here again are the words of a respected Republican legislator and two-tour veteran of the tickest ground-fighting in Vietnam:

    Chuck Hagel - one of the few Republican legislators to have actually served in combat, and who has NOT served President Bush as a grovelling mind-slave - said on Bill Maher last night that General Petraeus' testimony was:

    "not only a dirty trick, but its dishonest, hypocritical, dangerous, and irresponsible. The fact is this is not Petraeus' policy, its Bush's policy".

    ..and just what does Senator Hagel think of Bush's policy?

    "I think that this war policy, where we are today, and the coninuation of this policy s the biggest foreign policy blundrer in the history of our country"


    Sounds like a pretty firm accusation of "Betrayal" to me.

    No, mental midget, the leftist opposition research and interpretation of The President's contentions does not sway me or the millions of others (as well as many in the US Congress) to join your 27% dead ender's club. If you want the soldiers out now, your elite will have to take real action....Again, allow me to repeat what they can only do.....

    Impeach and remove both Bush and Cheney.

    Cut the funds supporting the Iraq War.

    Please try to address these truths, the truth about your democrat leaders and your lack of contrition concerning your lies regarding FOX NEWS coverage of the democrats' response to The President's speech on Iraq.

    If not, have a nice day at the rally!....Enjoy.

    When you change the paradigm it's easy to fudge facts !

    >>>How ironic patsy has the nerve to post this. Take it from an expert!

    I will repeat the question. Are you and Kucinich and the government of Syria allies with each other? Do you support the governent of Syria?

    Posted by: Rico at September 15, 2007 11:15 AM


    >>>Slob is more a Puko Chavez guy.

    And again, I have to ask mental midget to try comprehending what he reads....

    "and your "fact checks" are more of the same inconsequential garbage that will not make one dent in his policy or public support for it."


    ###
    See the word "your." I did not write that the State Department or aything else you claim is garbage....I wrote your interpretation of those presentations in the context of Bush's speech is inconsequential rubbish. Understand?....Your tactic of attacking Bush is flawed and misdirected. I laugh at your insanity of doing something over and over again with the same result.

    "Bush lied." I never get tired of hearing it. It shows desperation and continued failure on the part of the left as they say this yet allow him to get all the money he wants and continue to remain in power.

    Do you understand now, what I inteded with "inconsequential garbage," mental midget?

    Oy. You are one shrill and dense synchophant, MM.

    Oh goody, mental midget wanna-be (AAP)has joined his master in showing us all how they, the "short-busers," handle complex thoughts and nuanced debate.

    I like easy debates on weekends.....Please continue!

    Hey, "short-busers," are you also going to avoid my simple rhetorical question this morning that was in reponse to mental midget's poor performance on this very thread?......

    "Poor mental midget....caught again not thinking on his own and regurgitating leftist propaganda. You and mental midget wanna-be (AAP) are sad deluded shills for the democrat party, aren't you?"

    Tsk, tsk, tsk....Are you going to let my insult stand? Come on now, whose the real _____wipe?

    AAP @ 12:12PM.....Example #1 of our resident leftist trying to form a complete sentence.

    Sad isn't it?

    RK,

    SLOB is more a Ron Paul kind of guy. I keep think of beanies with propellers on their heads.

    Oops! "Thinking".

    "The whole nation and 'internets' is a buzz over your president's out right lies to the American people in his speech.


    ###
    Example #2 of another leftist resident trying to participate in nuanced debate and attempting to form complete sentences.

    Sad isn't it?

    Hey mental midget, I have been online for several hours now and your bunched-up tightie-whities over the discrepencies ("lie" suggests intent and I am not aware of evidence of Bush's state-of-mind), is the first I have seen. I do not consider your minority views as the same as, "the whole nation's."

    Have you cleaned your computer monitor yet. Your spiddle must be rather think at this point.

    Continue your losing propositions, MM....This is really fun for me!

    "Your pathetic attempts at defending Moron in Chief's failure and your hallucinations about "leftists" demean you, and place you in the company of Bovine, Laura, and Johnny BU$HWIPE.


    ###
    Oh joy....A complete sentence from wanna! He is actually making progress! Perhaps next he may post something of substance to the debate thread for which I could then form a thoughtful response.

    Miracles do happen post-canon! I may have to change my theology!

    "Did you hear what I intended when I warned you to look out for lightning bolts, Fallacy Cee?

    The whole nation and "internets" is a buzz over your president's out right lies to the American people in his speech."

    Sorry, Why Don't You Think, but that is another incorrect fact. Our President and the News have MovedOn with his signing of the Reform Bill. The Nation and Internet has accepted the fact that your cowardly Party are not going to Defund the War.

    The whole nation and Internet is a buzz over your Liberal (Democrat, NOT Democratic) Party and the Attacks on General Petraeus.


    Olbyloon and MSNBC were a MAJOR part of that, since he first "coined the phrase." The story is not going away anytime soon.

    "Moving countries in or out of regions, establishing morality over peoples, appropriate procreation techniques, and FUCKING WITH TIME."


    ###
    Oh boy, he's backsliding already on those understandable complete sentences.

    I am sorry I incorrectly typed "12" instead of "14."

    Please clarify the remainder of your post, wanna, especially, "establishing morality over peoples, appropriate procreation techniques."

    From Terry Ballard (hard core Olbermann supportor):

    "When I came back, I saw Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews mention the "Coalition of 36 nations," without actually challenging that number. "

    http://www.opednews.com/articles/opedne_terry_ba_070914_checking_the_numbers.htm

    Let me take a stab at correcting your sentence anc see if I understand what you were trying to say, wanna.

    "Just how do you do it? Moving countries in or out of regions, establishing morality over peoples, appropriate procreation techniques, and FUCKING WITH TIME."

    really is.....

    "Just how do you move countries in or out of regions, establish morality over people's appropriate procreation techniques and FUCK WITH TIME?"

    Am I correct, wanna? Now, if you can clarify the "establish morality over people's appropriate procreation techniques" portion, I will try to respond.

    whats kind of funny about this site, there seems to be more Olbermann supporters than not...

    Keith Uberdouche spewed: "Why on earth did we do it that way?"

    Due to Countdown's low ratings, the cash-strapped Edwards campaign is able to afford the discounted ad pricing offered by MSNBC compared to it's highly-rated competitors.

    "doesn't remember his sermons about how to fuck for "recreation" purposes."

    ###
    When did I do this, wanna?

    Well, wanna, the sentence, "Moving countries in or out of regions, establishing morality over peoples, appropriate procreation techniques, and FUCKING WITH TIME" makes even less sense after your attempt at clarification at 1:17PM. At least when I made peoples, people's the object of your sentence was clear.

    Why is there a comma after peoples? Please rephrase it so we can all understand what you are trying to say.

    Slowly now, wanna because we do not want you to get too frustrated. We can be patient.

    SLOB has never , and never will, change a single mind. His pathalogical Bush-hating derangement( which began long before 9/11, no doubt) precludes any thinking person from taking him seriously. Sorry Slob, but it is true and you know it.

    "whats kind of funny about this site, there seems to be more Olbermann supporters than not..."

    Yes, ostensibly they're his supporters. But they have this peculiar tactic of never (okay, rarely) defending Olbermann.

    Whenever Olbermann is documented to have done something absurd, the response from his "supporters" is usually: "Bush is a fascist" or "neocons are malevolent" or some such non sequitur.

    His supporters rarely come to his defense. They just change subject and try to move the discussion away from the initial topic.

    As the saying among lawyers goes: if you have the facts on your side, argue facts; if you don't have any facts, just pound the table.

    Lotta' pounding of the table from the KO crowd.

    Gee, that was helpful analysis; not like 1:07 could've figured that out on his or her own.

    Gee, that was helpful analysis; not like 1:07 couldn't figure that out on his or her own.

    Gee, that was helpful analysis; not like 1:07 couldn't figure that out on his or her own.

    *sigh*

    Sorry for the multi-posts.

    Despite wanna's mental breakdown, I would like to return to more important topics like the fight for freedom over totalitarianism in Iraq....

    "The statements were posted Friday and Saturday on Islamist Web sites and among other things claimed responsibility for the assassination of Abdul-Sattar Abu Risha, who spearheaded the uprising against al-Qaida in Anbar province west of the capital.

    "In claiming responsibility for Abu Risha's death Thursday, the Islamic State said it had formed 'special security committees' to track down and 'assassinate the tribal figures, the traitors, who stained the reputations of the real tribes by submitting to the soldiers of the Crusade' and the Shiite-led government of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

    "'We will publish lists of names of the tribal figures to scandalize them in front of our blessed tribes,' the statement added.

    "In a second statement posted Saturday, the purported head of the Islamic State, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, said he was 'honored to announce' the new offensive in memory of al-Zarqawi.

    "'Today we witness the fallacy of the Western civilization and the renaissance of the Islamic giant,' al-Baghdadi said in a half-hour audio file."

    Nice. The American left celebrated the assasination of Abu Risha yesterday along with Al Queda. Mike, Loin, wanna and mental midget join the terrorists in their celebration of their new offensive in killing people who want democracy for Iraq!

    Yeah, it is a good day. How is that huge rally going?

    Stop the war!......Cut the funds!
    Impeach Bush and Cheney!

    And this is my post today, the 1,599th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq.....
