This is the recappers' comment thread for Countdown, July 31 2008.
Welcome to You Write the Recap 2.0. This is a special thread for you to post your comments on the night's Hour of Spin. Note everything salient: smears, distortions, bias, lies, non-barking dogs...the works. Watch the first showing, or the repeat. Or view the videos at the Countdown website.
We'll go through the comments, organize them, and they will form the nucleus of our official OlbyWatch Recap. That will be posted separately, later tonight, for maximum visibility and impact. We'll credit all the commenters for their contributions, and may toss a few opinions of our own into the mix. But we're busy with a lot of stuff tonight, so we need you to pitch in and document the shameless actions of the infamous, deplorable Keith "Man on Fan" Olbermann.
Here is your chance to be an Olbermann Watch blogger without all the muss and fuss. Comments are open! Post your analysis of tonight's Hour of Spin here, and watch for it to appear later tonight in the official OlbyWatch Recap.
I love how Olby and Eugene Robinson claim that McCain is doing so horribly when the polls indicate otherwise. Poor pathetic libs. Olby just made a crass, tasteless comment (shocker!), saying that the McCain campaign is racist and eventually will claim that B. Hussein Obama is not black enough. Shameless and deplorable is correct.
And here go Olby and Paul Krugman spouting off about eeeevil oil companies and the Dems' opposition to "meaningless" offshore drilling. How out of step with the public can the moonbats get? Krugman is now saying the media is partially to blame for not covering the story correctly (read: spinning the story the way the libnuts want it to be told).
Funny how Olby and Chris Kofinis don't mention Sen. Bill Jefferson's corruption charges and his $90,000 in the freezer, and speaking of another Bill Jefferson, how the Clintons sank the Democratic party in the 90s. That will never be mentioned during the Hour of Spin.
Do the math.........
Zogby Poll: 74% Support Off-Shore Oil Drilling in U.S. Coastal Waters. Telephone survey finds 59% of likely voters favor drilling in ANWR; ...
Non barker!
He's gotta be getting ultra desperate for a special ed comment!

How dare McCain try character bashing and playing under-handed politics? Who does he think he is? Keith "Minute Man" Olbermann?
Paul Krugman and Olby bash drilling
Two trillion barrels aren't worth filling?
Would last hundreds of years
No dependency fears
But the moonbats simply aren't willing
Bill Jefferson is [somehow] a Representative (Congressman).
I'm at the "Countdown" website. Wow! No O'Reilly attacks!
In the Media Matters Minute, Fat Ass attacked the following people for no good reason:
Worse: Some Australian gold prospector/insect exterminator. Sorry about this Keith guy, mate. He's been nothing but trouble for a few years now.
Worser: "Speaking of bugs" (the wannabe Mr. Segue strikes out), Brian Sussman, host of "The Suss-Man Show" on Talk Radio KSFO 560 AM in San Francisco (which is on at the very moment I type this). Picture of Sussman stolen from station's website. How dare he criticize, even in jest that gets taken out of context by blue blogs, the almighty Obama! And how dare he call this God "dude." "Got news for you, DUDE. Obama said he was a (looking at paper): 'proud citizen of the United States and a fellow citizen of the world.' (Looking back up): And the last guy who said something like that, (back to paper): 'I speak today as both a citizen of the United States and of the world,' (back up): Ronald Reagan." Keithy grins and laughs as he says, "Cool, a conservative too stupid to realize he just called Reagan the antichrist...(bellowing): DUDE." The sophomoric staff laughs.
Vice President Cheney: Merkle cites Seymour Hirsch. Oh, no. Cheney wants to provoke a war with Iran. Nobody wants to provoke anything. We're trying desperately to avoid that happening. I'm saying this is Mike C. A war with Iran would turn 60% of the world against us, and of course, Israel. I don't want that. But if all options had been exhausted and we had no choice, do it. Okay, enough about what I think about world news. Back to Olbermoronn. With an evil smirk, Edward R. Olbermann shifts around in his chair and says, "Can you see this happening in Cheney's office? Sure, you can. Can you Cheney getting all worked up and almost smiling? Sure, you can. Can you see where they get to the part about Americans being killed and you can't do that and just...stares at them all and says...'So?'" Then, came that ending flourish.
Could you see Ed Murrow doing that? Eric Sevareid? Robert Trout? John Chancellor? David Brinkley? Of course not! If Keith Olbermann is an anchor or a journalist, then so is Mike Malloy. I was going to say Howard Stern, but I think Howard has more class than Herr Olbermahn. I could be wrong.
I'm done. Can I go now?

KEITHS CREEPIEST MOMENT:
His announcement that Luke Russert will be joining NBC to cover
the upcoming conventions, focusing on the 'youth vote'.
Memo to Luke; Give Pete Doocy a call.
CORRECTION 1: "I mean this *as* Mike C."
CORRECTION 2: "'Can you see Cheney getting all worked up...'"
