There are so many to keep track of! Hat tip to John Cook who caught Edward R Olbermann in yet another whopper:
It's stirring rhetoric from Olbermann, as usual--only it's almost certainly 100 percent not true!
Well, maybe it's true on OlbyPlanet.
moron paranoid BU$HWIPES
Thanks Patsy!

Olbermann is the ticking time bomb at MSNBC and it's only a matter of time before he really goes off and takes a bunch of people with him.
Unless, that is, Phil Griffin and Abrams are waterboarded to tell us where they hid the journalistic ethics and standards of the network. If they uncover those standards, they'll realize they need to get rid of this ridiculous "news anchor" and find some real journalists and news reporters to put on the air.
Tick...tick...tick...
"Steve MG....must have been living under a rock. Keith O's career is taking off and we have idiots like you to thank."
Sufferers of BDS just love their Koo-aid.
KO dispenses it in gallons nightly.
So KO claims someone said something they didn't say again,,,yep KO is really following in the steps of Edward R.Murrow...but coming from MSNBC the network thats throwing everything they got to bring Rosis onboard journalistic ethics is something they lost a long time ago.
Maybe if MSDNC hires Rosie, we'll be talking about Olby just as we speak of Tucker and Abrams today - on their way out the door according to insider gossip. Stay classy, MSDNC! Olby's going to get "Tuckered" when the new loon on the block arrives.
For the Olbermann defenders (see above), it doesn't matter what KO says on his little pretend news show.
It doesn't matter whether it's accurate or not. Truthful or not. Fair or not. Objective or not. False or not. Right or not.
The only thing that matters is that KO gets Bush. Or the neocons. Or Cheney. Or Republicans. Or the Christian Right. Or Limbaugh. Or O'Reilly. Or Giuliani. Or.....[fill in the blank with leftwing target]...
As long as he goes after those "evil" elements, he is completely absolved from any standards of journalistic professionalism.
Rosie posted on her blog that she's not going to MSNBC. Olby is just about orgasmic on camera. Frankly she could have easily gotten higher ratings than his pretend news show and he would no longer be the highest rated show on that network. Olby missed a bullet there.
What a pompous ass. He just spent over 5 min of network time bragging about his "huge"ratings. Yep, another Murrow moment.
Damn! Rosie going to MSDNC could have been such a good time for the GOP. Olby probably has been sweating bullets over this. She would have clobbered him in the ratings.
"Olby missed a bullet there."
So did MSNBC. If Rosie went to MSNBC, I for one, would have written them off.
Rosie may be admired by conspiracy wackos, but in my opinion, she is emphatically NOT admired or respected by most Liberals.
What MSNBC really needs is to lure Bill Maher for a nightly show.
I would have watched just to see Olby toss to Rosie every night. Let's hope it's not over yet.
"Keith is god... someone please shoot Bill Oreilly in the forehead.."
The loons sites are all worried that KO might get shot in his new studio area in front of a window and what do his minnions do, wish for BOR's death. Not so classy, Bill O'lielly.
A lie from Olbermann? According to Mike and WDIT, Olbermann doesn't lie. Just like Mike voted for Bush in 2000.
You don't quit do you Factor?
I never claimed "Olbermann doesn't lie"...and once again, I DID vote for Bush in the year of our Lord 2000.
Your little brain seems to be threatened by that little factoid for reasons that defy normal people's logic.
On the issues,though, he can hold his own with almost anyone.

Well, then wouldn't it make sense for you to start ripping off his stuff then, instead of the usual cretins at Huffington Post?
The Old Bag criticizing the Huffington Post for telling the truth. Why is the truth so difficult for you? I know it means admitting your boy is a colossal failure and that you were an utter fool for voting for him, but those are all forgiveable. We've all made voting mistakes.
Huffington Post telling the truth?
Awesomely hysterical... thats a 50-50 proposition.
Perhaps you should google the HP article on the military being a ecological drain. Its was chock-full-of lies and errors.
Keith Olbermahn's always lying
Only the moonbats are buying
Daily Kos and Huff Post
For the lift and read host
The ratings prove Olby's not vying
Relevent Torture (now known as: Blogging Olbermann) #2 fangirrrrl site blogs on Olbermann's lack of source reading (I included a comment from a dopey Olby lover who can not believe he mislead his viewers (again)):
Uh oh, Keith. Did you not read your source completely and thoroughly? ‘Cause you got caught by John Cook at Radar Online:
According to the ABC News report Olbermann cited, Levin did not decide that waterboarding by the U.S. is torture; he just thought we were doing it wrong. “Levin, who refused to comment for this story, concluded waterboarding could be illegal torture unless performed in a highly limited way and with close supervision,” wrote ABC News’s Jan Crawford Greenburg and Ariane de Vogue (emphasis added). “And, sources told ABC News, he believed the Bush Administration had failed to offer clear guidelines for its use.” In other words, the man whom Olbermann believes “should have a statue in his honor in Washington right now” for making a liar of Bush about torture apparently thinks that, in principle, waterboarding is perfectly legal.
It’s never a good thing when they start comparing you to Lord Vader.

Huh. Rachel reported the same thing as Keith, and I don’t watch/listen to any other news sources so I’m not sure where else it has shown up. Surely this is something that can easily be verified? Is the ABC report somewhere online where we could check for ourselves?

Hello everybody,
Longtime reader first time poster. I have been going to message boards for the last six months. I never see these people that say he lies ever back that up with fact. I have never seen anyone break it down like Keith did with Bill O's comments. Why is that?. Am I the only one? Am I missing something?

so "cherry picking" half truths & spun facts is not lying? Only on Olbyland...YIKES!
> OlbermannWatch and the others never catch him in actual lies
Man, do the Olblypologists actually believe this, or are they just too full of the KoolAid to read the many lies we've exposed on this site? As I've said before, check the FAQ, move on to Olby's Top Ten Lies of 2006, and come back when you know what you're talking about.
Here is a follow up comment from Relevent Torture (angelina admits she has not read the memos closely, but concludes that KO is right, Radar is wrong---Like I said before: "God, these fangirls are really stupid")...read on:
"found a diary at Daily Kos that does a pretty in-depth analysis of Levin’s memo, and it has a link to the memo itself. I can’t vouch for its accuracy because I haven’t really had time to read it closely, but it comes out on KO’s side rather than Radar’s."

Here is the dailykos link if you care to "torture yourself"
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/11/8/82746/4246
If you want to read the actually NEWS story from ABC, here is the link:
http://abcnews.go.com/WN/DOJ/story?id=3814076&page=1
I refuse to read anything from the Daily Kos website, but I did read the ABC News report and it is closer to Rader and Olby-Won-Ken-Hum-job.
I started reading the DailyKos stuff, but the blogger said he was not really qualified to analyze the memo, but did anyway. It simply tries to parse and skew the info to the "left" point of view.
Where as the ABC link is closer to news and actually reports what the man said. Yes I agree that Radar is on the side of news and is accurately pointing out Olbermann's misread of the memo & news story.
Great thanks to Houstonian, another ubiquitous loon, for pointing out some more sloppy fact checking from KO:
"Re: Oddball dog washing…the dog was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, NOT a Cocker Spaniel. The King Charles is much smaller and shorter.
Re: Discovery over land…The Space Shuttle is not in any danger flying over land; the people down below are."
They list his mistakes in one breath but yet believe what he says and defend him in another. Doesn't work.
Senior loon Marie joins the piling on against OW and anyone who dares to say KO lies:
"Embedded in that screed was the shopworn charge that Keith 'lies' -- yet they have yet to counter anything he's said about Bush with actual FACTS. They can pump out reams and reams of characterizations, but no FACTS. That's where the situation has stood for the past 3 years.
-Marie-"
Many thanks, but please check the Olby's Top 10 Lies section of OW. Read it while you're drinking your KoolAid, Marie.
Those Leonas just don't get it do they? Olbermann wouldn't spit on them if they were on fire, unless of course, they looked like JLO. Then he'd have incredibly bad sex with them and dump them after a tawdry one night stand. He's all class.
Beyond that, he clearly lied in this latest "special comment" of his, cherry-picking the facts to suit his arguments. Funny, the Loons get all in a dither when Bush did it to justify a war but they don't see the damage that their Edward R. Olbermann is doing to journalism. "It's the lying" they'll whine, just so long as it's the GOP'ers they catch lying. Even when Olbermann is caught red-handed at it, they pretend it didn't happen, invent excuses, and then absolve him with the most magical of phrases, "He's bashing Bush, leave him alone."
The mind boggles at what utterly worthless and empty lives these gulliable loons have that they actually think Olbermann is a journalistic hero of some kind.
Because the vast majority of them are old barking bitches with no bite who are in desperate need of putting down.
Shopworn charge eh? I'm sure Owatch will stop accusing Olbermann of lying when Olbermann in fact, stops lying. But he just keeps at it. So does Owatch. Long may it watch out for the lies of Olbermann and his looney but oh so entertaining band of lunatic Leonas!
watching keithy's blather about water boarding online I had to double check to make sure I wasn't watching some comedy website...he tries to look sooooo pompous and righteous its actually funny...I was waiting for tears to start rolling down his cheeks
You are correct to a point, Mr. Vick, and while the Repugnantcans would welcome you as their ideological brother, I am afraid you'll never be more than an honorary member. I am sure they will allow you to remove the gin and tonic glasses from their salons and wipe up the rings, however.
How soon philby forgets that the (d)'s, especially Olbermahn, were the ones defending vicks behavior.
You know, Dipshit, your fellow Hillbilly Heroin addict is not a conservative. It's a shtick. Olbermann is not a liberal. It's a shtick. They are apolitical. I know the Comedian Rush Limbaugh didn't even vote for years and years. I doubt Olbermann did either. So, don't heap more crap on the crap you've already amassed.
"Heaping crap" is your gig, philby.
You're far too modest, Dipshit. Crackpot may be the Sultan of Sodomy, but you're the King of Krap. Well, even your name says crap.
Olbermann is not a liberal. It's a shtick. They are apolitical. . . I doubt Olbermann did either. So, don't heap more crap on the crap you've already amassed.

One must presume that Olbermann's far left diatribes are sincere unless there is cogent evidence to the contrary. Your supposition that he doesn't vote is no basis to conclude that Olbermann does not buy in to the left fringe views he espouses on Meltdown.
So what if he is left? It all depends on your political point of gravity.
Why do I have to presume Olbermann has any political leanings, Skank? Olbermann is an entertainer, and he has a niche market. He is the Limbaugh of the Left, but, like Limbaugh, just an entertainer.

If Llarrry want to believe this, Hank, let him.
It makes Olbermann more cynical than we already believe him to be.
If he's demanding that the president resign, linking him to all sorts of malfeasance( including a plot to use the lives of soldiers to enrich his friends and political supporters) in order to play to a segment of the television audience that buys into all this... Capon has just given Olbermann a more critical and serious indictment than we ever have.

pffft...shows any doofus can get rich in this country. Money doesn't necessarily a smarter, better,or respectable person - it just means you're rich.

If Rush has credibility with ratings and money, then American Idol must make the most beautiful music in the world, and celebrity news can pass for real news. The market has spoken.
How can this be rational logic?
"Why do I have to presume Olbermann has any political leanings?"
Because this is who he holds himself out to be and there is no evidence to the contrary that he does not sincerely believe what he says (except your supposition that he does not vote,which,even if true, would not necessarily obviate the presumtion of his political leanings).
Aren't I clever? I'm a fuckin' moron.

Sadly, I am not a Marxist. I tend to identify as a leftist, overall. I'm definately left-wing socially and center-left fiscally. I don't really subscribe to a party. Though, my beliefs are more in line with the Greens. Maybe neo-marxist, a big maybe.
and Yeah my name is just to provoke.
From Ronaldus Magnificus:
"How do you tell a Communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin."
Just an observation. Provocation for the sheer sake of provocation is juvenile.
You will find out that there is enough controversy to last most of us many lifetimes without starting out to provoke more. It will come in abundance without your making any effort.

Trent, 20 year old males have enough trouble with traffic cops. You don't want that on your driver's license.
Tell me about it. Add that to my collection of feminist and Noam Chomsky stickers on my car.

I don't idolize Ted Kennedy. It was merely to be jokingly provacative.

Especially if you've spent a good part of your time here calling HIM a liar...
The actual "owner" of this site doesn't seem to mind. It is only a few moron paranoid BU$HWIPES that mind it.
