"COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN" (8:00 P.M.-9:00 P.M.)
Host: Keith Olbermann
Topics/Guests:
Oh this should be exciting. The promos have been promising an Olbermann response to the eeevil people who are criticizing his Special Education Komment. We can expect to hear "far right" [Ding!] and "lunatic fringe" [Ding!] sprinkled liberally through the hour. Let's see. The infamous, deplorable Keith Olbermann assiduously barked the opening spiel: Al Gore sides with Hillary! Rove sides with Hillary! "Karl Rove, Blank You!" Obama "plays nice"! McCain attack! "Mister" Bush! The "far right"! [Ding!] It's blue Monday at Olbermann Watch, but we're not blue. Bathtub Boy has demonstrated again that he is an avid, regular reader of this website. We're apparently his #1, go-to source for the truth about his infamous, deplorable self!
#5: Clinton praised Fox News, even though "they insist" she might be a murderer! (OlbyLie) Her husband appeared on Limbaugh's radio show! (But Limbaugh wasn't hosting; funny how those fine details get left out.) She accepted money from the "vast right wing conspiracy"! [Ding!] Now she's "embraced" Karl Rove's analysis! Horrors! Her popular vote lead is "manufactured"! Obama is still ahead! The Pundit for All Occasions claimed Rove is just trying to drag out the Dem race. Neither he nor Oralmann identified one factor or statistic in Rove's analysis that was incorrect. That's the way "analysis" works on OlbyPlanet. Howie was Great Thanksed.
Next Keith pimped out Lefty Alter. Rove's "so-called research" cited by Monkeymann, again without identifying one syllable in it that was wrong. Lefty said Rove is probably lying (yeah, and how about all those lying statistics and polls he cites?) but if says something Merkle doesn't like, they'll just smear him and be done with it.
Olby tossed in another "lunatic fringe" [Ding!] as a lead in to #4: McShame! (Cue the Oralmann ad: "We must avoid partisanship...") Comedian Rachel Maddow of Err America showed up, tonight playing an ethics in government expert. Lobbyists! Disgusting, repulsive lobbyists! Tone deaf! Comedian says McCain is an "older Arizona Senator". Lobbyists! The Err America propagandist was Great Thanksed.
After a comedian [Ding!], some gushing over comedian Maddow, plugging a Howard Kurtz article that actually represents a victory for Bill O'Reilly, a Fixed News [Ding!], and a lunatic fringe [Ding!], came #3: tonight's attack on "Mister" Bush and the carefully edited NBC version of an interview. Bush doesn't know what he's talking about! Oh, and anyone can enrich Uranium with the instructions from a simple Google search. Appeasers before World War II were--all together now--Republicans from "Mister" Bush's party! Basra is not a success!
After a "far-right" [Ding!] and a comedian [Ding!] came #2: something about something buried in some ball park cement. It's the kind of hard news Oralmann specializes in.
After a lunatic fringe [Ding!] was #1: Herr Olbermann takes on those dolts who actually thought "cold blooded killers" referred to people who were out killing in cold blood. It turns out he did edit out a phrase where he identified the "cold-blooded killers": Bush's cabinet and Bush's Pentagon. Yeah, that makes it all better! (Yikes!) The troops are wonderful. He loves the troops.
This is the segment that exists because of Olbermann Watch. Fat Ass reads this site, and over the weekend he saw two radio hosts who criticized his holy gospel. So out came the insults and personal attacks! Lunatic fringe! [Ding!] Right-wing! [Ding!] Warmongers! [Ding!] Evil! [Ding!] Right-wing! [Ding!] Then for the big finish: "Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin [mispronounced again, on purpose], why do you hate the troops?"
Gag.
Hey Fat Ass, keep reading Olbermann Watch. It is the #1 Olbermann blog worldwide because of support by loyal readers like you!
In the Media Matters Minute, Merkle attacked Bill Kristol (Blue Blog Source: Think Propaganda), comedian [Ding!] water-carrier [Ding!] Limbaugh (Blue Blog Source: Crooks & Liars). Comedian! Comedian! Comedian! [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!], and worst: Oliver North (Blue Blog Source: Crooks & Liars). Fixed News! [Ding!] And why does Bear play organ music by Bach in this segment? Does he think is sounds evil because it was in some old monster movie? Questions without answers: replete on OlbyPlanet.
Tonight's MisterMeter reading: 13 [DANGER!!]
And that's The Hour of Spin for this, the 742nd day since the declaration that "Karl Rove will in fact be indicted".
UPDATE: See our special post on the Kurious Kase of Keith's Kontradiction. Was he lying then, or is he lying now?
Wait, did Keith admit a mistake?
Just witness how low Olby stoops
Krazy Keith says he loves the troops!
Never heard such a crock
Keith won't visit Iraq
But he'll shovel shit by the scoops
No, he said he edited it out on purpose. Since he did it deliberately, it was not a mistake. The Earth did not stop on its axis. Oralmann did not admit a mistake.
No, Im sure its that WE misunderstood. Something needs to be done about this nut, but I think we are starting to see him selfdestruct. We can only hope that history does repeat.
A very very bad night for Olby...
1) Forced to retract his special comment....Blames it on the copy boy.
2) Forced to air the Bush interview with Engel. But the Bush-Engel heads-up is not good enough. He has to get (sorry ladies, but I'm quoting Paulie Walnuts) cunty and inject his sorry-ass point of view as an interpreter for his stupid ass leftist worshippers.
3) Has to defend his NY Post Page 6 antics....Well what was that noise, Fat Ass? Can you explain that? What about the look on David Gregory's face. The man is a baldfaced liar.
THEN...his Nuclear Option.....Opens a TWO-FRONT War of words with Levin and Laura I.
Olby is a loose marble on a warped MSLSD floor.
The Despicable one never ever fails us.
Last I checked the SecDef was a member of "Bush's cabinet" so when Keith then adds "Bush's Pentagon" he must be referring to someone other than the SecDef which would presumably include members of the military. So, how does Keith imagine that his explaining his "deliberate" edit changes anything?
Note to Laura Ingraham: Laura, any thoughts on why Keith would have felt the need to EDIT these FIVE particular words from his 2,000 word magnum opus? To save 4 seconds out of his 12 minute live rant-o-fest? Sounds like OlbyBlather to me. I guess you, Mark and Dennis got to poor Keith by pointing out the implications of his rant.
761st day...and counting. Sleep well, Mr. Olbermann.
It's now 4 days since Keith's declaration of war crimes.
Journalistically? Keith's a buffoon
A coward in his liberal cocoon
Let the viewers decide
But his colleagues deride
The flop-sweat and need of spittoon
I can't imagine things will go well for KO on Laura and Levin's shows tomorrow.
to make matters worse, Lawrence O'donnell ripped Abrams a new azzhole.
Olby can't carry Levin's intellectual jockstrap.
And guess what? Tonight, Oralmann acknowledged that BOR refers to him but not by name. Waah!
Olby's post-SEK clarification did nothing but--to use his phrase--put a Band-Aid on the wound. I'm with Mark: Fire his butt...and the rest of him.
742nd. Sorry. I thought 671 was a typo for 761.
It's interesting that Merkle singled out Laura and Mark. Hey, Dennis, John, you guys dodged a bullet.
It's a Sad Sad Situation
and it's getting
more and more
absurd
B.T.
Hmm....
From Kos, one of KO's numerous "pat myself on the back" comments that may be revealing.....and show another possible Olberlie.

Funny thing about these.
When I first write 'em, they are half as long.
Then I'm reminded of other things this administration has done, and suddenly, they're twice as long.
Actually, this one was one straight write. Took about an hour, I moved one sentence, added the new info on the fraudulence of the golf claim, and altered about a half dozen adjectives, and that was it. Not exactly Mozart's unblemished composition sheets, but I'll take it.

Nothing there about editing out a phrase...
Well, at least even if he did mean the troops he's backed off it somewhat now.
But how much better it is to ONLY accuse the entire Cabinet and military leaders of being "cold blooded killers" ?
Can't wait till the transcripts come out.
OK I tried to give Keith a pass for his cold-blooded killers comment, and how does he repay me?
"I didn't mean the troops, I meant the Pentagon."
Who the hell works in the Pentagon you dumbass??? Troops, maybe? Troops that have been troops long enough to get promoted high enough to be command. Does Keith love them when they are deployed but when they walk through the Pentagon doors they become cold-blooded killerrrrrsss.
It was crafty to try to turn it back on the "fringe right wing." Why did they assume he meant the troops? Because many on the Left do hate the troops, and do think they are killers...Code Pink, Keith?
btw most of the Blackwater guys are former military.
Scott can you post a link to that OlbyComment? That seems to directly contradict what he claimed tonight.
Here you go Johnny.

So Keith was talking about the President's cabinet? If the President's cabinet is the real "cold blooded killers" wouldn't that make the troops their hit men? Wouldn't that make the troops paid killers? I don't see how that is any better. Did the “I am just following orders” defense work at the Nuremberg Trials?
Quads,
I missed the O'Donnell ripping. What happened?
Abrams claimed that Hillary was still viciously attacking Obama on the campaign trail. Larry dismissed him with rigor.
Last week everyone was making a big deal over a 20yr old tape of O'Reilly losing it thinking it's a big deal..all the while Ol'KO is right now losing it..throwing tantrums against David Gregory and feuding with Chrissy Mathews getting Tucker Carlson's show kicked off the air..bending so far over for Obama that the Clinton's are complaining about it...
But this is a pattern for KO and why he never stays anywhere too long He's a Diva...and as I've said before with Bush going half His shows is going...He won't be the wonderboy of MSNBC next year...He will do or finally say something on air that even MSNBC won't be able to ignore...I'm still betting He'll come out of the closet as a 9/11 Truther and openly blame Bush for being behind the attacks.
Silence, from the olbyloons.........
How on earth can any sane person, in an attempt to clarify their own words, after admitting they were not as "precise and clear" as they could have been AND that "... it is possible that reasonable viewers might have been confused by exactly to whom I referred," conclude his clarification by asking, "Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin, why do you hate the troops?"
Gag to the power of 10.
COUNTingDOWN to the MELTDOWN
Will Keith Olbermann allow Mr. Levin or Ms. Ingraham to appear on his show to answer his final question?
In one word, No....
Oh the spinning and whining...it is wonderful to see such a self-proclaimed intellectual try to take back crude/awkward words and phrases that lack integrity, research and judgement. His Special Comments are nothing but the emotional spew of someone who has not done ONE bit of investigative work to come to his bellowed rash conclusions and predictions. This has always shone through.
Ok....WAR CRIMES TRIALS....these should be in about 4-6 years from now....a very easy way to measure Olbermann's accuracy. Just like other Special Comments that predicted impeachment and/or resignation of Bush or Cheney, (only 7 months to go for that to come true) the predictions seem to not come to fruition. Why? Because the Special Comments are inaccurate demogoguery no better than what my 2yo son does when I tell him he has to go to bed.
So, in his work as an Edward R. Murrowesque "journalist" (totally unfit to claim such an honor) Olbermann has uncovered crimes by high ranking officals in The White House and The Pentagon that warrant a US or International law enforcement officer to act? Ok Keith....let's have THE SPECIFICS! No specifics?....just radical leftist accusations and propaganda I read at kos, HuffPo and other hate sites?
War criminals specifically in the administration run freely and without fear of action from anyone...including the leading Democratic Presidential Candidates, the elected leaders of the House and Senate or even those wonderful leaders at The United Nations!....No....Only the anti-American left fringe has the goods on these monsters who have fooled millions upon millions of people, including the brave, intellegent and honorable men and women who fulfill those very orders to shoot....THE TROOPS!
War criminals (Bush, Cheney, etc) lawful and unchallenged leaders who will continue to direct large armies in combat?....without the punishment or challenge pronounced as reality by Keith Olbermann?.....That makes us all in The US (including the troops) like the silly, fear-filled, manipulated and pathetic Germans of the 1930's and 1940's.....nice Keith....Thank you for the analysis....we are blind to the crimes against humanity!
Once again, opposition to a policy has been brought to a radical and wrong-headed extreme....Keith never fails to be an idiot.
Wow. Keith Olbermann is a fool. I thought he had fulfilled my opinion of him as being a loser but this last Special Comment made my cup runneth over.
Your cup runneth over and olby's minions are right there to gobble it up! The same minions that won't show their face here........
