The growing outrage over Keith Oralmann's ethnic insensitivity toward Hispanics has led groups such as La Raza and LULAC to publicly protest Bathtub Boy's callous remarks. Details in this clip, which is far more fair and balanced than anything presented on Monkeymann's Hour of Spin:
League of United Latin American Citizens: "not necessary and could be perceived as being insensitive to Hispanic viewers".
La Raza: "an unfortunate use of words, and offensive to Hispanics".
wow, would it kill that republican tool to even say olbermanns name?
pssssh.
i must say, o'reilly is entertaining but sometimes he's just a walking contridiction.
Bill gives the orange fascist a pass. I wouldn't dignify the Orange anthrax attack victim either. He's a fascist clown. Besides, Olbergoebbels is a hard name to say unless you're German. As far as the above poster, calling O'Reilly a Republican tool is fallacious. He's got no dog in this fight, and has spoken of all the candidates fairly. Find a film clip to dispute me. Olbergoebbels. At this rate he'll be calling Obama a nigger in 5,4, 3,2,............Heil Olbergoebbels!!!!!!

Obviously you get your beliefs about O'Reilly from the DailyKos because anyone but a moron knows he is an Independent. You are just a brainwashed liberal sap that when someone gives a fair and balanced program it appears to be to the right.
Why should the host of the no. 1 cable news program on the no. 1 news cable channel even acknowledge Olbyturd is even breathing. Olbyturd is like the seven year old sent tot he corner for running his mouth in class. There is nothing more that Olbyturd would love to do it get O'Reilly in a pissing match to drive up his ratings. I doubt it would because any dick lick turned on by something like that already watches the loser's show.
Can I spell it any clearer for ya?

Watch out there sheik, you may offend one of the left wing, racist Olbyloons on this board. They won't give you a pass liek they give Robert Byrd with his use of the N-word when applied to white people. There are too stupid to know the use of this word when referring to white people is to acknoweldge it's intended use and make a stark comparison in a pure hatefull racist way.
I am so amused by the ability FOR ALL THREE GUESTS not to say the words, "KEITH OLBERMANN." That really was funny.....
O'Reilly is right....time and again racism or insensitivity is claimed by leftists and punishment demanded....most of the time it is for simply explained errors that do not show any hatred or intent to harm.....and the crying goes on and on and on.....Poor leftist babies....they need a hug.....The media covers it and makes it all grow to something larger than it should.
Now, some leftist babies are crying over another leftist's insensitivities and there is silence....it is hypocritical and shows the entire endeavor is a fraud......
Good job J$ at once again showing the hypocrisy of Keith Olbermann and the leftist media establishment.....and this time with the bonus of not giving the childish egomaniac hack face time on the most watched cable channel!
He, he, he. It must hurt.
I will understand if this post gets deleted because it is not on subject to the thread (I reviewed Mr. Cox's posts about trolls last night and understand it is his site and he may control it anyway he pleases), but I must respond try to Mike's claims on the previous thread....
Mike....The positions taken by those who want immediate troop withdrawal without strategic military and humanitarian assessments of the state of Iraq are not being patriotic. Please tell me how they are being patriotic.
The people may be being "practical" or "realistic" or "selfish" or whatever adjective you wish to place there, but patriotic is not one of them simply because the mission is being abandoned and all those before who sacrficed with life and limb for the mission are also being treated in a less than respectful way.
There is positive progress and still, Obama and Clinton play to their leftist base who wanted withdrawal since 2004....that is not patriotic because the "country" has committed itself to an ally in security and American values....values of democracy, freedom of thought and religion after an oppressive dictatorship and in avoiding the takeover of radical islamic theorcats.
So, please start to take the term patriotism seriously. Ms. Clinton and Mr. Obama, on Iraq, are not being patriotic....they are being political....Only Mr. McCain has stuck to his principles in respecting an ally and defending American values against tyranny and radical islamic terrorism.
So, you may not like it but it is a rational discussion....Just like it was not patriotic for John Kerry to throw his medals on the ground as a young man renouncing the mission John McCain was still fighting for as an abused POW in Hanoi, I do not think politically expedient timetables, that do not take into account the facts on the ground in Iraq while men and women are in harms way, are patriotic either.
I NEVER claimed I was a patriot (I do not think of myself as one because I do not wear and never wore the uniform and placed my life inbetween an enemy of freedom and America) ....I simply stated I support a patriot....John McCain....In rational and defendable terms, any policy that places America as the "bad guy" or "the imperialist power" or "hegemonic bully" is not patriotic or pro-American.
Trying to change the definition of patriotism is not a rational or acceptable course either.
Voters have a choice and I believe it is right to put it in terms of patriotism versus pragmatism.....just like in 1974.....We saw the results of pragmatism in South Vietnam...although the left chooses to try to gloss over it all and ignore millions of deaths due to communist genocide and the re-education of human minds and other other human rights violations in terms of religious persecution, etc. I will respect the decision, BUT DO NOT CALL IS PATRIOTIC.
Interestingly, the spokesperson for LULAC quoted by NewsMax later "withdrew" her statement. Unfortunately, a statement to the media is not like a question asked in a courtroom. You don't get to have your statements stricken from the record...
[Editor's Note: After making the statement, and after the above story was published, Lizette J. Olmos, communications director for the League of United Latin American Citizens, overruled the press statement and requested that her comments be dropped from the article.]
Dan Abrams must not give a lick
Keith basically called Bill a "spic"
His "Chicken and Waffle"
O'Reilly's "falafel"
There's one word for Keith and it's "prick"
Fox News has now run two pieces on or about Olbermann in the last week and in each case they had opposing views on either defending or explaining Olbermann's position on the topic.
In fact, in this report we had O'Reilly HIMSELF arguing that Olbermann's reference to "guacamole" wasn't racist or bigoted.
These were balanced and fair reports. No shouting, no verbal "fistfights", no yelling. Just a calm, fair examination of Olbermann. With contrarian views and a respectful discussion.
Get the hint, Keith?
Cee, the reason I feel patriotism is not the issue is because most Americans who have strong informed opinions on this issue are by definition....patriotic. A "patriot" wants his country to do what they really believe in their heart will be best for their country. In that regard, we are both patriots.
The problem is that you see it as an irrefutable fact that leaving Iraq would create the humanitarian disaster that many have predicted. I don't see that as a given.
Aside from all the rhetoric, I firmly believe that neither a President Obama, or a president Clinton, would simply jerk out all the troops with no regard for what is happening at the time.
The real issue going forward has been what do we do from this point on....and how long should we do it? We all understand that what is done is done and the debate is really about where to go from here. However, that doesn't mean we should never stop examining how we got in this predicament, because understanding that is the key to making better decisions in the future.
I cannot remove from the equasion my concerns about how all of this is affecting other important issues, not the least of which are how it has depleting our already bankrupt treasury, the cost in lives and livlyhoods, and the cost in apparent military readiness and it's ability to confront or provide sufficient intimidation regarding other potential threats. threats.
The bottom line is that if we care about our country, we are a patriot. That said, I am firmly convinced that all three of the remaining presidential candidates are by definition, patriots. The difference is in the visions. I am also convinced that none of the three would agree that implying an ideological difference of opinion can be defined as a lack of patriotism.
I think the 10:27AM post will last about 10 more minutes...then bye, bye....
Fine Mike...we'll agree to disagree....My view of patriotism is by definition pro-country....when one characterizes the nation's actions in Vietnam or Iraq as "imperialistic," or "evil," that is not "pro-American." The left has said this and their leaders are reacting positively to such rhetoric.
I do not believe Obama or Clinton are making their policy statements based on being patriotic...it is a poltitical judgement based on polls of their supporters and they are both clear.....No active duty "war" troops in Iraq within 16 months of their oath......
They will end the war...how?....by withdrawing the troops....How can you say they are saying anything different?

In other words, she found out that the person who made the statement is the Great Orange Leftwing Hope and quickly ascertained there would be leverage in pointing her finger at him.
Unbelievable. IF that doesn't show you how politically motivated charges like this generally are, nothing will.
It reminds me of that clip of John Gibson interviewing a black comedian about racism and the man saying that he made NO distinction between parties when it came to such an issue. Yet when Gibson played Olbermann uttering his "chicken and waffles" remark, the man was so flabbergasted that he started stuttering. After he fully processed that it was Keith Olbermann who had made the remark, he spent the remainder of the segment trying to take back his initial reaction by making excuses for Keith.
It was obvious he did indeed make the very distinctions that he denied.
Frankly, I come down wholly in Bernie Goldberg's camp on this. I also understand O'Reilly and Gibson, who are just one guacamole comment away from wholesale condemnation in the media, with identity rights groups, and with Olbermann hissing and spitting a Special Education Komment demanding they do the right thing and resign.
In the long run though, Goldberg is right. It's better to refuse this sort of slop, instead of going into the pigsty to wrest it from the pig.
This discussion shows the depth and value of the subject matter Keith Olbermann chooses to cover...being the sanctimonious Mother Superior to the conservative rabble seems a silly career choice....but more power to him....he will remain a marginalized and intellectually dishonest entity.
There is some value in satirizing Olbermann's useless bloviating if to only remind some people that we all are capable of erring....And I do encourage Gibson et al to continue their schtick in a limited and nonserious fashion.
Has anyone noticed that posters from the other side have been avoiding Olbermahn like the plague? Bush, bush, war, war, cheney, cheney, paste this, paste that. There used to be a couple leftists that would make feeble attempts at defending the orange one, but, nothing in months. Last weekend there was one of those 'new' posters under the name of 'charlie' who claimed he could "debunk J$'s recaps with ease, but, didn't have the time" which sounded all too familiar. Other than that, they refuse to bring up the person's name who this blog is dedicated to.

Regarding O'Reilly...congrats on the following....
"Leading the list of favorites, just under one-quarter (23%) of Americans cite Fox News Channel’s Bill O’Reilly as one of their three favorite news and current affairs personalities, followed by the host of ABC’s World News Tonight, Charles Gibson and CNN’s Anderson Cooper (17% each)."

Poor Olbermann was no where to be found in the article.....
"Poor Olbergoebbels was no where to be found in the article"
I guess the orange nutjob could always just mail himself some more fake antrax. Then again, last time he did it, no one knew who he was afterwards anyway.
I turned on Meltdown with Queef Olbergoebbels for someone last night who had never seen or heard him. The response was "Oh, he's just trying to be like Jon Stewart, but he's not as funny." I had to explain it wasn't the Comedy Channel............
Heil Olbergoebbels!!! Sieg Heil!!!!!
I do hope someday that Bill drops his I-won't-say-that-man's-name policy and go after Olbermann whole hog. This little dance around Olbermann's name is wearing old on me.
I disagree, Damail....I think it is very funny....almost like saying his name will cause O'Reilly go into a seizure a la Kramer on SEINFELD when he heard the voice of Mary Hart......
And for all three not to mention his name....very funny.....I see Olbermann sitting on the edge of his seat waiting for his name to be spoken by O'Reilly and then freaking out when he does not hear it....
I think giving Olbermann too much publicity feeds into his ego and is the last thing he needs....this site is about the level of obsession the man could handle without becoming truly pathological.
Killa:
1. The quotes were added to the post by Mr Cox, not by me.
B. If you bothered to read before you posted, you would have seen what's upthread at 9:22 am.
III. You were only four hours late with your superfluous, redundant insights.
> You call Olbermann fat ass every other word
"Fat ass" is not my phrase. Check the Olbersaurus for its origin.
Republican Killa,
As J$ noted above, there was no effort to "hide" the fact that Ms. Olmos later sought to retract her statements. It actually highlights O'Reilly's point - that these groups that love to accuse people on the right of "hate speech" bend over backwards to excuse or ignore the same type of behavior they criticize when it comes from the left. There are no "take backs", however, when issuing statements to the press which is why NewsMax ran BOTH the quote and the request that the quote not be made public.
As for the "Roscoe Chicken and Waffles" scandal, you are again missing the point. The guy's name was "Roscoe". THere is a "famous" local chain of restaurants in the Los Angeles area called "Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles". Keith lived in L.A. and presumably knows all about (and, my guess, has dined there as it is pretty popular among entertainment and sports celebs).
http://www.roscoeschickenandwaffles.com/
Keith was not making a random connection between "Roscoe" and "Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles". So if your point was to undermine the claim that Keith's comments were racist you could point out that connecting the football player with the restaurant chain was just word play based on an uncommon name and a restaurant that Keith likely knows well.
J$, I seem to remember that you linked Mr tough guy Killa to a Richard and deleted some of their comments.
Killa is just rolling on the floor, screaming and holding his breath b/c all of his play group have been sent home to their Mama.
He will start sucking his thumb and soothe himself into a nap soon.

Kieith's Robin (David Shuster) is getting called out for saying Chelsea is "pimping" for her mother...

If his name was Larry Wrapper and Olbermann called him a "gansta rapper" would that be racist, you fucks?

Yes, it would.
> Kieith's Robin (David Shuster) is getting called out for saying Chelsea is "pimping" for her mother...
Do you think Slippery Shuster will be "worst person" for this? You know Keithy protects his corporate masters. Now it looks like it might be MSNBC who gets boycotted:

Will Shuster be WPITW tonight on COUNTDOWN?......
"A distasteful comment about Chelsea Clinton by an MSNBC anchor Thursday could imperil Hillary Rodham Clinton's participation in future presidential debates on the network, a Clinton spokesman said."

Oh no! MSNBC may not be the to go channel for the DNC!!!!!
Olbermann must be frothing at the mouth.

HRC vs MSNBC: Pimp My Debate
by Aaron Bruns
Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson says he “can’t envision a scenario where we would continue to engage in a debate” on MSNBC — after correspondent David Shuster said former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton has been “pimped out” by the campaign.
Those ip #'s came to me in a security warning while I was on this blog. Did they match?
No. But handle that via email not comments.
No. But handle that via email not comments.
Ok, this is the second time it has happened. Last time it happened just prior to this site crashing. Over and out.
I would love to see Shuster get the Imus treatment. Look forward to seeing it posted at Hillary Clinton's Media Matters (hahaha, yea right.)
Although, brilliant straw man for the Clinton campaign. Now Chelsea can be the "picked on girl" for the women's vote. You gotta admire the Clintons, they are really politically brilliant. Tears, race baiting, lower expectations, really brillant. Vote for Victims, should be their new slogan.

I'll answer my own question:
Olbermann will not react to Shuster's pimp comment directed towards Chelsea Clinton....But if O'Reilly had said it....whoa....there would have been a whole segment on COUNTDOWN with a leftist guest (Maddow, likely) commenting on it.......
But his buddy, slippery Shuster?.....it was a mistake and not intended to hurt Chelsea....give the guy a benefit of the doubt.....
This comment thread is closed.
This Shuster-Chelsea Clinton Story is hot and impacts MSNBC and Keith in a pretty big way now since the Clinton Campaign is saying they will NOT debate on MSNBC, an event Keith would likely anchor.
