    Olbermann Watch, "persecuting" Keith since 2004

    Olbermann Special Comment Tonight!
    DrudgeSiren.gif

    Olby News Alert! For the first time in recorded history, Keith Oralmann tonight launches a Special Education Komment salvo against a Democratic candidate: Hillary Clinton. How the worm has turned. What set him off? Geraldine Ferraro. Listen to the comments that started the controversy. Then enjoy Ms Ferraro's latest, as she insists "I will not be intimidated":

    Good for Keith... I wonder how long it will take before any of the room regulars make a post apoligizing for saying that Keith would ever say anything negative about a democrat.. much less a special comment.

    I agree with Geraldine. Not even Geraldine is safe from the truth haters and I haven't agreed with her since the 70's.
    However, her gal HRC wouldn't be where she is if it weren't for her last name and white skin. It works both ways.

    Olbermann is under orders from Soros to condemn Hillary. He's a hack.

    You hacks hate keith so much you refuse to admit to being wrong... like the last seven plus years.

    Clinton has proved that the things that a good portion of the what her detractors of hers have said were true.

    I saw Olbermoron's own gal on the CW11 Morning News here in NY working as a segment reporter. She may be in her mid-20's and he may be all proud of himself for living w/her or whatever, but she is not attractive at all.

    The left on left hate continues! McCain has to be just sitting back and loving every single minute of it.

    "Clinton has proved that the things that a good portion of the what her detractors of hers have said were true."

    Jeesh, yet another imbecilic liberal.

    Did you graduate high school with a diploma? If so, you need to think about going back for a bit more education focusing on writing the English language.

    The last time Keith went after Democrats -- when he attacked Congress last July for not standing up to Bush and pulling U.S. troops out of Iraq -- his Special Comment was appropriated a couple of months later by Osama bin Laden for his rant against Democrats for not standing up to Bush and pulling U.S. troops out of Iraq.

    I'm trying to figure out what tonight's tirade against Hillary is going to spark or who might emulate Keith's remarks in the near future. It won't be Obama, since he's running as the candidate of change and ending divisiveness, so following in Olby's verbal footsteps would scare off thousands of potential voters. And it won't be McCain in the fall, unless he suddenly has a desire to start making people wonder if he's too old to be president due to dementia setting in.

    The left on left hate continues!
    ^^^^^
    Not a single example of this hatred, much less that there is even a left in the US.

    Gee-I wonder when fat ass will do a comedy routine regarding the Elliot Spitzer ( D-NY)? You will recall our oranged hued putz with the hankie tied on his head doing his send up on the events of what went on in the Min airport rest room?
    Are you kidding.This is the shill we are talking about--fat ass Olberman. As for the special comment---I wonder what Kos Kid is busy typing what the orange monkey is going to say tonight on his low rated show?

    I’ve noticed that the entries here are dying down. It’s exhausting for right wingers to keep lying all the time.

    If this doesn't prove to you all that Keith Olbermann is in the tank for Barrack Obama, nothing will.

    Glad I checked this site for Olbermann's folly....I will set out a bucket and towel and watch the Orange "Bringer of Truth"(hahaha)make an idiot of himself once more. As for the comment above about right wingers lying all the time, there are people on this site whom disagree with the propaganda machine known as "Meltdown" and are not necessarily right wing. Personally, I've always considered myself Libertarian, and currently subscribe to the political theories of the Neo-Libertarian movement. As a Neo-Libertarian, I find Olbermann's propaganda spin show to be highly offensive. Anybody that believes anything this Goebbels-wanna-be throws out is obviously lacking the abililty to sense reality from the MoveOnDemocrat party B.S. when they see it. That's a big reason why I feel that in order to use your priveledge(not a right-read the constitution)to vote in a general election, one must first pass an American Civics test. We have driver's licenses to keep the road safe, I think licenses to vote should be considered as well. Nothing like blocks of illiterate morons deciding who will make policy for our nation......Just because people disagree with your views in that Olbermann is some kind of a real journalist doesn't mean they're lying, more like you have an extremely skewed sense of rational thinking..My two cents.........

    "It’s exhausting for right wingers to keep lying all the time."

    Why don't you ask Spitzer?

    He is a Democrat, was attacking prostitution rings, and at the same time was indulging...

    Or Hillary, her husband was defiling women left and right, and Mrs. Feminist did jackshit about it...

    Or how Barry is now going to bring everyone together while his record indicates he is a left wing, most liberal member of the senate...

    The left has much, much, much more hypocrisy than anyone on the conservative side.

    The media just doesn't care to give it much play.

    Keith wears a toup.

    Hey jj, I was referring to your boy, Olby attacking hillary. Thanks for asking.

    It’s exhausting for right wingers to keep lying all the time.

    Not a single example. Just more of the usual baseless accusations from the poster known as new gal, sometimes.

    You righties personally attack those you disagree with because you are jealous of the person you are attacking and nothing more. "Thou dost protest too much Methinks"

    Olby's Speshul Komment will be full of criticizms of the Bush Admin. For every negative word about Ferrarro and Clinton, he will spew loads of invective directed at Bush. NOTHING changes with the crap-sack known as olbermann.

    One of those posters IS 'the messenger' too. TDF!!!!!!

    Oh, the irony!

    Olbermannon, on his Countdown show, has been on a relentless Hillary bashing campaign going on 4 weeks now . He became nearly apoplectic with anger on the night she won Ohio, TX and RI. He kept sputtering that she should get out of the race, what good was this doing the party etc etc. He looked like he wanted to punch Chris Matthews when Matthews said that this was the way Democracy worked and this is the way the process should play out.

    He is CLEARLY for Obama, which is fine, he just needs to come out and preface every new Countdown Show with that. Because he dosen't do that he ends up looking like he's part of the Obama spin machine.

    I'll fully admit here that I'm a Liberal... but the sort of Liberal that Olbermann dosen't like. I'm not politically correct. I'm a realist about things. 91% of all blacks dems voted for Obama. That's a racial basis and it's not ok. I won't tolerate the excuse that "African Americans are just proud of one of their own". Can you imagine if Hillary got 91% of all the white vote and the excuse used was "White Americans are just proud of one of their own". Is Obama getting a pass from much of the media because of his skin color? Of course. But you're not suppose to say it publicly or you will be branded a racist. If he was a white man named Barry O'Brien with the same experience he would be relentlessly quizzed in every debate about it. Instead it's been left to the Clinton campaign to point out his shortcomings and every time they do Olbermann trashes Clinton and any of her campaign advisors that dare open their mouth obout Obama.

    It's proof that it takes just a little bit more than money and being a TV personality to get a good looking chick. You'd have to be one hard up ass to get in bed with Olbermann. I bet the look on his face when he's about to crack a nut would scare the ugly off a chimp.

    OLBY sucks posts:

    Liberals are stupid. It goes without saying. There is a reason they are the "have nots". A liberal could "F" up an anvil with a marshmallow. Show me a city, country, state or federal goverenment ran by liberals and I'll show you a corrupt, screwed up governement.

    Here's a priceless clip from last night's Countdown of Howard Fineman calling Geraldine Ferraro a Tip O'Neill affirmative action hire and suggesting that this is a Clinton political strategy to appeal to white voters in Pennslyvania, in the midst of Olbermann arguing that Ferraro was being racist in implying that Obama is an affirmative action candidate...

    Clarence Thomas has to be smiling somehwere... :D

    Um, no.

    Me jealous of Olbyturd? Bwahahahahahaha.

    If I woke up and walked into the bathroom to shave and saw that goofy looking bastards face staring back at me I would have a plastic hose feeding from the tailpipe of my car to the passenger compartment.

    What do you call Obyturd's personal attacks? Truth? His acting the part of GOD? Holier than thou?

    Got a link to where you m ade the same comment on say MoveOn.org, HuffingtonPost or the DailyKos?

    No, no my friend. The only person with a problem is you because you can;t stand someone saying something about your idol you idol worshipper. Personally, I'd give up my right nut, $10k in cash and my best hunting beagle to stomp a puddle in Olby's ass.

    Thanks for stopping by and exposing yourself. You and Obly have at least two things in common.

    I don't watch the bag of wind even more than a couple of minutes surfing the channels. I haven't watched any the last several nights.

    I saw an interview with Alan Dershowitz yesterday where he claimed something "stinked" over the feds claim the transactions flagged their attention. What is it with these liberal left wing nut jobs that the first words out of their mouths are "LIAR". Just another example to me their is a God. It must suck to go around and have a cob up your assshole all day long and a moon pie face and see doubt in everything.

    I just wonder how long before Olbyturd makes up some bull shit reason that GEroge Bush had a reason to go after this piece of crap.

    Wasn't Dershowitz part of the Dream Team that sat OJ free. Yeah, something stinks, another scum bad lawyer.

    The Truth Hurts!! Go, Geraldine, Bill Clinton, and Congressman Steve King.

    We're tired of the Dumocrats (mostly liberals) stuffing all this down our throats for years.

    Yeah. Very real.

    According to Einstein the surest sign of insanity is diong the same thing repeatedly and expect different results.

    Olbermann repeatedly calls FOXNews idiotic names, repeatedly bashes Bill O'Reilley, expecting that his own miserable ratings would improve.

    This guy is not only a loathsome, despicable worm, he is also - undoubtedly - insane.

    Does anyone have video of Katy on the CW? I thought the CW was gone.

    Oh, the Huffers ain't happy about Keith's pending Special Comment (5 pages and counting of comments):

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/03/12/keith-olbermann-to-do-sp_n_91110.html

    "I used to like Keith, now i know he's nothing but a sorry ass, paid buffon."

    I saw Olbermoron's own gal on the CW11 Morning News here in NY working as a segment reporter. She may be in her mid-20's and he may be all proud of himself for living w/her or whatever, but she is not attractive at all.
    Posted by: Larry at March 12, 2008 12:35 PM

    Larry, what was the segment about, can't seem to find her at the CW website

    I watch the CW11 Morning News in NY on a semi-regular basis and this was the first time I saw her on there. I don't particularly remember what the segment was about only her name and ordinary look.

    You know what they say about beauty and "the eye of the beholder".

    I was just looking at a picture of Gov Spitzer's five grand an hour "Kristen" and thinking she looks like every girl walking through a mall...

    Keith will be "all-in" against the Clinton's.
    After his speshul comment, they will never darken his doorstep again....

    Oh, maybe that was racist.

    "chicken and waffles" Olbermann is a disgrace, throwing way too many stones in his glass house. And NBC News let's him do it.....

    Is it any wonder why NBC News is Al Jazeeera @ 30 Rock?

    How many millions did Bill O'Reilly have to pay to get those charges to go away..I wonder if Billdo is using the pocket rocket on himself as we speak... oh and if Geraldine was not feeling intimidated why did she quit ?

    Keith is god...please neocons do us all a favor.. do your families a good deed.. Leave your home, become a carny. That or jump off a tall bridge. All the sex news thats fit to print.. the No Spin Zone.

    Keith feeling the love at dKos

    I knew he couldn't resist. And he's replying to the comments. Hell, he probably wrote some of the fawning ones himself.

    oh and if Geraldine was not feeling intimidated why did she quit ?

    Because she wants to help Hitlery Clinton and she doesn't want your Rock 'n Roll racist to win. Your affirmative action candidate is of course playing the race as if he were OJ. I think it is wonderful to see the Dems attacking each other. It's like watching a pro-wrestling match when the two bad guys turn on each other and start hitting each other with steal chairs.

    I just saw the comment.

    Keith's a shithead. A self-righteous shithead.

    In the space of about 72 hours Geraldine Ferraro has gone from being a Democratic icon to having Keith Olbermann compare her to David Duke.

    If anyone is going to be guilty of driving the Democratic Party over a cliff it's going to the likes of Keith Olbermann and his overwrought, psychotic, merry minions.

    NBC News officially kicked Hillary to the curb.
    She is persona non grata at the left-wing news outlet.

    Hilarious that NBC News enables this deplorable man.

    Keith is god.

    I tell it you it quite painful to try and follow Keith's special comments. He just goes on and on. Talk about a lack of ability to comprehend or remember anything he has said. Geesh! Hey Keith you could probably cut out all the drama and facial expressions and also 10's of thousands of words and get the same point across.

    Pord.. unable to follow a thought ? You ought to be watching Billdo attempt to shove a dildo up his ass.

    Let's summarize the facts...

    He gives a Nazi Salute...
    He calls a Jewish Journalist a Monkey
    He calls Roscoe Parrish Chicken and Waffles

    and he now passes judgement on Geraldine Ferraro's entire body of work as a public servant -- brabding her a racist in 5 short speshul komment minutes.

    Keith is the Shakespearian FALSTAFF in this tragic comedy that is MSLSD.

    Keith is god.

    That's Keith Olbermann... deity to emotionally and intellectually stunted eternal adolescents everywhere...

    It’s amazing the Democrats and their stooges have thrown Geraldine Ferraro out of the party because she did not goose step to the PC tune. She is one of the more honest Democrats left. I guess that is why she needed to be purged. There is no longer room in the Democratic Party for reasonable honest people.

    Don't be too hard on Ferraro. She's only a woman, after all.

    Rico,

    Watch out for the hand that is mine coming out of your computer to give you a whack!

    Sharon,

    My joke was for Geraldine Ferraro's benefit. No offense meant for you or any other lovely lady.

    Doesn't someone get to ask her whether or not she became the VP running mate of Mondale because of her gender?

    She said so much, herself!

    I was finally able to see mainstream media
    honestly address the hate, and racial slurs
    splattered all over this election process by
    Hillary and Bill Clinton. I applaud Keith
    Olberman for his direct and uncensored dose of truth to the viewers who have been
    listening to all that mess. I love Keith O.

    "Special Commentary"? It should be called "Special Hyperbole".

    Geraldine Ferraro cannot be, in any way, compared to a David Duke. To even bring up Duke in this controversy reveals how strained Olbermann has to be in order to get attention.

    What he is doing with these commentaries is simply unacceptable for any news anchor or reporter. I care not a bit over whatever point of view he expresses; left, right, libertarian, Whig, anarchist.

    A news anchor who covers elections is simply not supposed to be expressing his views on those matters.

    If he wants to be a commentator, so be it. If he wants to be a news anchor, so be it. But you can't be both.

    If I were the Clinton campaign, I'd demand that he be taken off coverage of their campaigning.

    Just kiddin' Rico. Gender is a legitimate issue.

    Olbermann thinks he's Edward R. Murrow.

    He looked at some of Murrow's commentaries from the 50s and thinking he's on that level, he says to himself "Hey, I can do that too!" But he really can't... he tries but he can't... because he's no Edward R. Murrow.

    I find it curious that most of my fellow Liberals have been so quick to throw the Clintons under the bus as soon as Obama appeared on the scene.

    All of a sudden they sound just like the same conservatives they used to defend the Clintons against.

    The old adage about partys and their candidates seems to be true- "Dems fall in love while Repubs fall in line"

    With Obama as the nominee we will lose in the fall. Remember 2004 when getting non-binding referendums on gay marriage got on the ballot in Ohio and and other states brought out the anti-gay bigots who hadn't voted in years or never voted before? Just wait and see what happens in middle America when the choice is another old white man and a young black man. But the Obama people, led by Olbermann, will blame Hillary. The battle cry will end up being "If Hillary hadn't been soooo mean to him, he would have won".

    You ever notice that Keith looks a lot like Barney Fwank?

    Hmm, maybe Keith has a closet full of you teen boys with milky buttocks ready to service their left liberal master.

    I would guess so, a lot of this jackass' defenders are close to being in love with him from the tone of their posts.

    Hey, maybe during their pillow talk, they can teach Keith punctuation, how to stop talking in run on sentences, etc...

    This is why Liberals have a hard time taking anything right-wingers say seriously.

    The worm has turned! What Keith so diligently sought to achieve in the past as sometimes lucid comment is now road pizza with his recent "Limbaughesque" comments (and stance type) on Ferraro. His present archetype is that of a muddled, griping old man pouring a verbal purgative down the throat of anyone sinful enough as to be so stupid to be in the Hillary Camp, while Obama, the pure and only way, plans his latest "festoons", really just cartoons to enthrall John Q. Public. Ah, this ablution. Keith! Right out of the Dismal Swamp...

    If he wants to be a commentator, so be it. If he wants to be a news anchor, so be it. But you can't be both.

    Olbermann prefaced is Special Education Komment by saying:

    "By way of necessary preface, President and Sen. Clinton, and the senator’s mother, and the senator’s brother, were of immeasurable support to me at the moments when these very commentaries were the focus of the most surprise, the most uncertainty, and the most anger. My gratitude to them is abiding."

    I found THIS particularly interesting AND amusing.

    I can just imagine Hillary telling K.O., "Don't be afraid. Tell it like it is!", never in a million years imagining that one day she'd be the focus of all that feigned righteous indignation.

    Since Hillary claims to have helped start Media Matters and they feature Countdown so prominiently on their site, I wonder how they fit in as far as encouraging Olbermann to go after Republicans and Fox News personnel.

    Olbermann is a guy who accused New York officials and Flox News of colluding with the Bush Administration over the timing of a recent terrorist alert. He linked Fox reporter Greg Kelly to the conspiracy because his father is the New York City Chief of Police!

    Imagine what Keith would make of any other journalist who had been so cozy with a prominent politician and their family...

    So only white people will vote against him and only because he is black? Nothing to do with his stance (or general lack thereof)on the issues?

    Generally you sound like a reasonable person in your post and I look forward to debating you on various matters.

    "Rico,

    Rico, if that mean Sharon pops you one Grammie will kiss it and make it all better.:) :)

    It won't be Olby you will call out for help the day you hit your knees atheist.

    You know, it's utter b.s. when Olbermann implies that he was somehow wrestling over the question of whether or not to take Ferraro to task.

    Who is he kidding? In the space of about 48 hours, Ferraro had become a pariah. Tom Brokaw probably thinks she should have never made the remarks. Brian Williams probably thinks she should have never made the remarks and Peter Jennings in the highest of heavenlies concurs with both Brokaw and Williams...

    Calling Ferraro out was about as risky as Olbermann's snarks about Tom Cruise and space cadets.... In other words.... it is precisely the sort of the elite sanctioned public humiliation of a fellow traveler that causes his fangs to grow and his salivary glands to pump.

    If he wrestled at all with himself it was only in suppressing some minute concern that he might do some even smaller good for John McCain.

    Whether it's Shuster or Bush or Ferraro, it costs him not a thing and HE LOVES IT.
