    Olbermann Watch, "persecuting" Keith since 2004


    April 23, 2009
    Countdown: Thursday Recappers Thread

    This is your recappers thread for tonight's Hour of Spin. But if you watch the video clip above, you may decide to forgo the infamous, deplorable one this time to catch the story that Mr Bill O'Reilly is teasing. Looks like a must-see Factor, one that will certainly impel Keith "Man on Fan" Olbermann to whine uncontrollably tomorrow night. If you do decide to stick with Bathtub Boy, you can do your recapping right here. Comments are open!

    disturbing. The only thing I can call this. Absolutly disturbing.

    Apparently KO is willing to pony up some benjamins to see if Hannity will follow through on his promise to get "waterboarded" for charity. HA! Much like he claims he donated 25k or whatever to the "it happened to Alexa" foundation.

    If I was Hannity, I'd call him up on it. With one SLIGHT condition that KO have it done to him as well.

    It's a shame that Hannity won't call 'em up on it, but you never know.

    I flipped over to KO's little "news show" during a commercial break of The Factor and could only stomach it for approximately 8-10 seconds. This "man" literally makes me sick to my stomach. I can't do it anymore. I cannot watch this "gas bag" HACK distort EVERYTHING he "reports on". I guess I will just have to rely on this website to see what this deplorable, sub human lies about night after night because his show is freakin unwatchable.

    "If I was Hannity, I'd call him up on it. With one SLIGHT condition that KO have it done to him as well."

    It seems to be that KO wasn't the one who was defending waterboarding (a form of torture as defined by settled law).

    Who cares about Waterboarding? Having to sit through any 5-minute segment of "Countdown" is a far worse form of torture.

    And where is it "settled law"?

    Don't start.
    Any O'Reilly or Fox attacks from Keith tonight?

    Olbermann seems to be on a "charity high" now that he's gotten his foot in the door with the It Happened to Alexa Foundation and the donation of his MLB blogging "hobby". (Or is Countdown his "hobby" and baseball fantasizing his "vocation"?) That's good for him, and his foundations, but for the average Olby-Watcher, we see right through his agenda.

    An Olby-watcher can conclude four things from this latest charitable spewing:

    1) He'll continue to milk this for all its worth because, after all, his sheep must realize that it must always be about him and his ego. How else to maintain his elitist salary and speak truth to power?

    2) His charitable works will be presented as wholly original in a propaganda effort to rebuild the image of the teetering flagship.

    3) Incapable of separating insightful generalities from specific exceptions, his charitable sound offs will serve as an ideological attack on the conservative base in order to shake off the conservative belief that liberals are only charitable with OTHER people's taxes. As a propaganda arm of the Obama administration, he will further reinforce that we all should afford to have less, for submission to The One's confiscation of our assets is our patriotic duty.

    4) But ultimately, none of this charitable behavior can undo the travesty that the NBC news brand has become. His insecurities will preclude him from realizing that what one does in his private life (charitable giving) will have no counterbalance over how one orchestrates his public life (as is readily evident by his daily Goon-like attack show and leftist agenda-driven network).

    I wasn't addressing you, A47--we posted at the same time--but it's too late now anyway. Everybody go nuts. Debate torture [Ding!] all you want. The hell with what happened on tonight's show.

    "any O'Reilly or Fox attacks from Keith tonight?"

    No Mike C. not unless you consider calling O'Reilly our for falsely claiming that Nixon never met with Mao an "attack".

    Someone in another thread played gotcha with Cee over what apparently was Another O'Reilly Attack tonight. It was schooling, pwning, epic failing, and other fakakta internet memes that will leave you farmisht. (I rarely use yiddish words, but I have here.) Blue blog source: Media Matters. Rip 'n Read strikes again.

    Mike C: "Everybody go nuts. Debate torture [ding!] all you want. The hell with what happened on tonights show."

    I know, I know, you'd rather discuss personalities and ignor current events, but throwing tantrums will get you nowhere.

    BTW, "what happened on tonight's show" was pure truth....[ding!]!

    Apparently, that blissful someone beat me to it. So, "torture, my ass," over Keith's head. Last night's Talking Points Memo, over his head. Miller Time, over his head. But a Media Matters nitpick, GOTCHA! On behalf of television, I apologize for my incorrect prediction.

    Mike C: "Blue blog source Media Matters. Rip n read strikes again."

    I know I know, if you didn't hear it on O'Reilly it must not be true, huh Mike C?

    I guess this means you don't believe that Nixon really met with Mao either?

    It makes me feel good that a crazy, un-intelligent, angry, conspiracy fueled, living in his mother's basement liberal like MikeH comes on here and comments. If we can make one crying liberal lose sleep by reading our comments, worry about getting slapped around, and how he responds to our comments then we have done our jobs. Way to go MikeH, you make this website truly fullfilling.

    You are so lucky Bob lets you stick around.

    I'm yielding the floor to everyone else. Mission accomplished, Sir Mike.

    Mike C: "You are so lucky Bob lets you stick around."

    Not really, Mike C, unlike yourself, there is so much more to my life than this site. I just like coming here occasionally to read pure ignorance masquerading as intelligent thought.

    No thoughts about whether or not Nixon actually met with Mao or not?

    Moneybags Olbermann is offering $1000.00 per second that Hannity is waterboarded. Good ole humble Olby flashing his cash again.

    We all know MikeH is on google, dailykos, mediamatters, and wikipedia trying to find his next comeback. But their as weak as Olbermann's response to McCain after the Al Smith Dinner...everyone remembers that horrible stand-up routine. Nice try MikeH....jackass!!!

    "Way to go MikeH, you make this website truly fulfilling."

    Glad to help if it brightens up your dim little life Simp.

    It obviously thrills your little brain when you can toss out epitaphs and silly stereotypes about those of us who are far more enlightened than you can ever hope to be.

    Nice try MikeH....jackass!!!

    "Jackass" huh?......I guess I got your dander up if no one else.

    Any thoughts about whether or not Nixon met with Mao?

    BTW, "what happened on tonight's show" was pure truth....[ding!]!


    ###
    A lie....I can recall at least one unsupported thing Olbermann presented off the top of my head....The role Congresswoman Pelosi played in her briefings regarding the techniques the Bush administration planned on using...In 2002, she could have registered her opinion regarding the use of those specific techniques as "torture." Olbermann excused her role with no evidence, only her version of events. Former congressman Goss was strangely not cited by Olbermann as support for Boehner's accusation....Why?

    That's not "pure truth." That is partisan excusing and hypocrisy. Olbermann is willing to accuse Bush of something all the while Pelosi and the rest of the left's ruling class allowed, with full knowledge, the techniques to be used.

    MikeHypocrite has been caught, again, lying about the hack Olbermann. So easy.

    Bye bye!

    Tonight Olbermann called Congressman John Boehner "boner." Ironically enough, he ended the sentence by asking, "What do you think we are all four years old?" Judging by his juvenile teabagging references and calling the Congressman "boner," he should expect nothing more than to be treated like a 4-year old!

    I love how some people just pick one thing that O'Reilly screwed up (he'll either apologize or not, probably wasn't the first time) and make him the Devil. Whereas other television hosts let insults fly and sell out their mother and they're isn't a peep.

    But it's good to see MikeH picking and choosing his arguments again. By "coming here occasionally" you must mean when it suits you. Where you been man? Were you sick too or did you just skip a few days to go to some baseball games? BTW I'm still waiting for an answer to a question I asked you a couple of weeks ago. Do you have an answer or not?

    Nevermind, old news. I have another question for you: WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU WHEN OLBERMANN WAS ALLOWING HIS GUESTS TO CALL PROTESTERS "TEABAGGING REDNECKS" AND "RACISTS"? AND AGREEING WITH THEM NONETHELESS! THAT'S A CURRENT EVENT ISN'T IT? YOU'RE CRYING ABOUT ONE HISTORICAL SCREW UP AND OLBERMANN IS ALLOWING PEOPLE TO CALL ORDINARY AMERICANS "TEABAGGING REDNECKS" AND "RACISTS"??? O'REILLY FUCKS UP ONE FOOTNOTE IN HISTORY AND HE'S AN ASSHOLE BUT COUNTDOWN INSULTS AMERICANS COAST TO COAST AND YOU SAY NOTHING. THIS, PEOPLE, IS MIKEH.

    MikeH it's obvious that no one here likes you but your opinion is neither muzzled or removed by the moderators. Your opinions, from our point of view, are silly but are still allowed. Yet you constantly shit on us for going after a guy who clearly doesn't believe in other people's opinions. You take quotes and go "blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah" and when that doesn't work you shit on Bill O'Reilly like we take every word he says as scripture.

    And my thoughts on Nixon and Mao are a big who gives a shit. No one claimed O'Reilly was a history major, except maybe O'Reilly. If anyone takes what any of these commentator guys say as dogma-O'Reilly, Olbermann, Hannity, King, Grace, Maddow, whoever-then they're a moron. But if we're measuring the 8 P.M. cable news lie-o-meter O'Reilly has a few million to give. At worst he hurt himself. Olbermann's lies hurt other people like, umm, rape victims. I remember you were absent for that argument too.

    You got any thoughts on that?

    This guy is jizzin' over Nixon and Mao. Yeah, you seem very enlightened trying to push the same topic throughout the night. Who cares about Richard Nixon? Who cares about Mao Zedong? Obviously you are taking some World History 101 class in community college to want to talk about something over 30 years ago. Why don't we talk about Jimmy Carter? Or the Viet Cong? Or Ho Chi Minh? Or maybe something within at least the 21st century. Or have you not takin' any classes at the Janitorial and Custodial Arts Community College of East Wyoming (or as it is known, JCACCEW) about current events yet?

    ....jackass!

    The Factor was worth it tonight. Jesse came through and brought the fight to the people that keep KO fed. With or without Jesse there it wouldn't have mattered. That Shareholders meeting was doomed from the beginning, and the only thing keeping the last bit of shareholders they have was the decision to keep the dividends. ( of course I would too if I was making millions off it like Jeff is )

    But with cap and trade dead and NBC's name ruined it's amazing Jeff not only still has a job, but is a member of the President's Economic Recovery Advisory Board since GE's stock has falling off the grid on his watch.

    Mike H:"Not really, Mike C, unlike yourself, there is so much more to my life than this site. I just like coming here occasionally to read pure ignorance masquerading as intelligent thought."

    Ahh, so you just come here to wade back through your own posts.

    Mike H:"No thoughts about whether or not Nixon actually met with Mao or not? "

    Yes, here's a thought...WHO CARES? You seem to find vindication in a completely irrelevent point. Ok, O'Reilly was wrong, this would be a big deal if this was 1972. This is the best you can do? Don't remember seeing you coming here to defend Garafalo's racist garbage on Meltdown last week. Or when he was belittling the tea party protests with his third grade attempts at humor. Yes, it's really outrageous for these "rednecks" to protest when a president will increase the national debt more than all his predecessors combined. Or his outright lies that these protests were "poorly attended." Or last night when Olby reassured his position as a bastion of journalistic integrity. Read back through last night's thread to see the exact quotes, I'll not do your homework for you. But you go ahead and feel superior about your little Mao zinger. I'm sure O'Reilly supporters all over the country are weeping.

    To the regular poster here, I apologize for my foul language.

    Posters. Whatever.

    Listening to Olby try and talk about SERE the past 2 nights, I sweat I have never heard a more unintelligent analysis of anything in my life. Obviously Olby just heard about SERE yesterday ( he didn't even know how to pronounce it. Tonight he tries to discuss it with Wolffmann and further exposed his ignorance. It's so tiring getting mad about this anymore but goddamn olby is one dumb son bitch.

    MLB.com just sent me an e-mail regarding the addition of Olbermann and told me to call the customer service hotline for all my troubleshooting needs. Guess they told me where to stick my Red Sox cap.

    So Olbermann, who is the Fascist? Riddle me this, what would one call a president who has a quid pro quo relationship with a military contractor/media conglomerate? What would you call a party that funnels money to a media/military corporation through bailout money and "cap and trade" programs as the corporation promotes the parties policy's and candidate of choice? How about FACIST!!

    Wow, Lawrence O'Donnell has some seething hatred for the entire Cheney Family! Hatred like that is gonna turn into cancer.

    Rob573, the point you are missing about my highlighting O'Reilly's little zinger is that once again, KO told the truth (again). And that's the main reason I've mentioned it several times.

    But there IS another reason:

    O'Reilly didn't just make the statement. He tried to rub HIS error in by questioning the intelligence of Alan Colmes in the process, who just happened to be the one who was right. The real travesty here is that this kind of arrogance and hypocrisy is typical of O'Reilly.

    I could actually understand your venom against Olbermann if you applied equal venon to Bill O'Reilly....but defending one gasbag while attacking someone else you think is a gasbag makes NO sense!

    cjflan32: MikeH it's obvious that no one here likes you."

    Wow, that statement says SO much about you!

    It's as if you REALLY believe that you actually know anyone on this site. It's as if you REALLY believe that anyone on this site actually knows me.

    Sorry, but I get plenty of 'love' elsewhere. Fro me, this site has nothing to do with friendship....just a place to read many extreme opinions, and occasionally comment about them.

    It has nothing to do with ME personally...or you! You and others here don't like my OPINIONS,.... just as I don't like your's. If we actually knew each other personally, we might or might not like each other.....but I'm pretty certain the reasons would have little to do with politics.

    Mike H:I could actually understand your venom against Olbermann if you applied equal venon to Bill O'Reilly....but defending one gasbag while attacking someone else you think is a gasbag makes NO sense!

    I could care less if Bill O'Reilly said that it was raining homosexual terrorists. I am not an O' Reilly fan but if you think you can equate O'Reilly to Olbermann's constant hate speech night in and night out you are the one who makes no sense. Olbermann is the worst, most vile excuse for a journalist I have ever seen in my life. Oh my, O'Reilly talked over Alan Colmes. Olbermann called the people who attended the tea parties "simpletons." Hard working people who are losing their jobs and being beset with outrageous taxes from everything to energy costs to failing 401k's. Yes, I make no sense when a paid newsperson debates another paid newsperson and that is just as horrible as Olbermann calling innocent bi-partisans "simpeltons." And this from someone who floats around this board with a superior attitude calling everyone who disagrees with his nonsense "pure ignorance." I can see why you rush to Olby's defense, you are made of the same mold.

    I will agree with one thing you said. Ignorance is bliss, and you must be feeling really good right now.

    KO, O'Donnell, Hayes and Woofy should get a room. Hayes' old lady could operate the video camera. It would be a sight more entertaining AND INFORMATIVE than the load of bull shit I'm seeing on My Ass N B C every time I venture there.

    I'm all for going after Immelt (I'm a shareholder and have lost my ass) and Zucker too. NO WAY should BOR, Hannity, Beck, or any of the other Fox News folks waste their time (and mine for that matter) legitimizing that dickhead Olbermann, Matthews, or dicklesshead Maddow. Every mention of these idiots on FNC only triples, or quadruples the amount of undeserved exposure they receive. Olbermosexual is either lucky or good for baiting Fox like he has. Whichever, he sure is getting a bunch of exposure from his competitors.

    Sorry folks. No apology for the language this time. I'm PISSED!

    You notice how MikeH cleverly sidestepped my comments and rob573's comments about Garofalo and the difference between screwing up facts and screwing up facts to hurt and insult people and picked out the part where I said no one likes him? It's kind of like cherry picking a commentator for screwing up history. And by "occasionally" you mean when it suits you.

    I know you pick and choose your arguments but come one, when you're called out stand up for yourself. Or are you a coward? Sorry! Since I don't know you I guess I can't say that. But judging from the way you respond to comments and just show up when you have a bone to pick about Richard Nixon history, I would assume you are a coward. And I'm already an ass so we're halfway there. I do thank you for that public service announcement though.

    Hell, I even answered your Nixon/Mao question and that's what you picked out? Uncool.

    Now I ask you in your response to rob573, can you give us, whom you feel kiss O'Reilly's ass all the time, another example of the "kind of arrogance and hypocrisy is typical of O'Reilly?"

    Insert typical MikeH line here. Responses tend to include "All you have to do is watch The O'Reilly Factor every night cjflan32 and you'll see the hypocrisy!" or "You don't even know me!"

    Actually cjflan32, I didn't "sidestep" anything. I don't have any defense for Garofalo, She is just another left wing extremist who hurts her own cause more than she helps it....just like Bill O'Reilly does.

    The real mystery is why you think I should have felt compelled to comment about a one-time guest that I didn't like any more than you did?

    As for "picking and choosing my arguements"....what are you talking about? Are you implying that I could or should discuss everything on this site? That is a ridiculous comment. Of cousre I "pick and choose my arguments"....and so do you!

    As for giving you "Another" example of O'Reilly's arrogance...why should I have to do that? I gave the most recent one, and I probably won't even remember it next week when he makes his next gaff. That said, if I did give you two examples, you would ask for three...and so on...... Another silly argument.

    Good call, CJ. He came through as promised.

    Now that was a reasonable response. I knew you had it in ya.

    Garofalo was a two time guest. In February she said people of color who share conservative/Republican values are self-loathing and women who listen to Rush are like Eva Braun. Very nice. I believe she's been on before. Don't know, don't care.

    But you're not seeing the point about BillO MikeH. If he's so bad you should be able to prove it easily. With real evidence of partisan rants, not points of history that he screwed up.

    Perhaps I didn't make the "cherry-picking" comment clear. What I mean is you show up when Richard Nixon is defamed by a man with a giant ego but when another man goes after an organization dedicated to helping rape victims you are nowhere to be found.

    Now speaking of Hitler:

    http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8055743&mesg_id=8056511

    First, I apologize for polluting the atmosphere with this link. Secondly, there could be another MikeH out there in the liberal blogosphere so I don't want to make assumptions. But to say a young man is conservative because he was probably beaten-just like Adolf Hitler-is obscene.

    Talk about hurting your own cause.

    Part of the problem here CJ, is that you don't really understand where iI am coming from at all.

    Lets take your "Defamed" comment regarding Nixon: No one "defamed" Nixon. I remember when he went to China and he did the right thing when he did. That was Nixon at his best.

    Fro me, what the discussion was REALLY about was Obama's handshake with Chavez, which is the only reason anyone was talking about Nixon. Obama did the right thing to....nothing wrong with a handshake. O'Reilly seemed to be trying to imply that "stronger" presidents would not have done it, and that is why it is so satisfying to prove him wrong.

    As far as me being able to "prove" that O'Reilly is "So bad", I don't even understand the premise of your argument? Suffice to say that I am as offended by much of what comes out of his mouth as you are regarding Olbermann. I couldn't possibly "prove" anything to you any more than you could "prove" anything to me regarding Olbermann. I've read every single negative thing that has been said about him, and most of what gets said is nothing but repitition.

    That said, I don't spend a lot of time thinking about O'Reilly. I actually believe that Hannity and Limbaugh are far worse, but I do think he needs to get his facts straight when he tries to diss the current president by citing history.

    PS, I haven't pulled your link yet.

    I could actually understand your venom against Olbermann if you applied equal venon to Bill O'Reilly...Who else?

    Equal venom would be applied if the two were equal journalists or even equal human beings. It's like saying that a Single A baseball player who made 1000 errors in a year and no chance to make the pros, should be equated to Derek Jeter who in his 12th year in the pros made 10. There can't be any "equating" unless the participants are on the same level.

    Bill made a (as in One (1)) mistake, no doubt, and lo and behold you come out of the woodwork faster than a roach after the lights are turned on. BUT! When it came to the past month or so with olbermann spewing his 500 lies and distortions not a word out of you. I mean I've heard of pick and choosing, but you do take the cake.

    My God MikeH, I do believe you come from the Focker genes. You know, to where if you come in 10th place in a ten man race, you feel proud that you placed. Get some pride boy, because after the whipping you took tonight you'd do better to never show your face here.

    By MikeH on April 23, 2009 10:05 PM
    Mike C: "Blue blog source Media Matters. Rip n read strikes again."

    I guess this means you don't believe that Nixon really met with Mao either?

    By MikeH on April 23, 2009 10:13 PM

    No thoughts about whether or not Nixon actually met with Mao or not?

    By MikeH on April 23, 2009 10:35 PM

    Any thoughts about whether or not Nixon met with Mao.


    Does anyone here see the similarity of the ape ruler and his #1 follower?

    Talk about grade school intelligence.

    By the way are there any thoughts about whether or not Nixon ever met with Mao? Olbermann meeting Mao? Olbermann meeting Chavez? Olbermann meeting Castro? Olbermann meeting OBL? ...the Taliban...Al Qaida...Hussein...

    Well, the ONE THING I can surely say is that the only time he ever met anybody with some balls he went directly to the dry cleaners afterwards.

    And Let's not forget Garofalo was on 3-16-09 on Countdown. Something about Bernie Goldberg.

    And how about Aug. of 03? Wonderful tirade from Ms. Garofalo

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxP9ZHz4FQs

    One Time? Sounds like a bit of a regular. OR! A friend of 'Countdown'?

    You know Mikey, you just have to stop sticking you're fingers in the fan.

    You say Malmendy, and I'll say Normandy.

    MikeHypocrite is so dishonest...Post after post regarding Garofalo on this site was citing OLBERMANN'S agreement with her conclusions....he even mentioned her, in a defensive light, briefly, last night on his show.....

    no apology.

    no retraction.

    no explaination.

    MikeHypocrite comes here, does the same thing Garofalo did on COUNTDOWN, basically claims superiority to all of us foolish dotes, and then says he thinks what she said hurst her cause. What a profile in courage! He even lies about her being a one time guest as puck30 points out. He also leaves out that Olbermann agreed with her.

    Oh, and how about the teabagging jokes?....MikeHypocrisy's level of sophistication?....Smears fitting for "intellectuals." Sure.

    So, let us review....MikeHypocrisy comes here with a silly argument regarding O'Reilly's error on Nixon meeting Mao to say that bolsters the argument regarding Obama shaking hands with Chavez (BTW, there have been scant posts about that here). In the interactions, he once again shows us he believes he is superior to the rest of us in regards to intellect (sound familiar)....he then slinks away never addressing likely 80% of the issues thrown at him in response to his arrogance.....

    Oh, and he even lies about Olbermann's friend in hatred and smears....Garofalo....

    He also lies about Olbermann's show last night being 100% truth....it was not and I showed just one small portion that was supposition, not truth.

    In a word....pathetic.

    "'The president said that given all that’s on the agenda and the pressing issues facing the country, that a backward-looking investigation would not be productive,' a White House official who attended the session said. 'The president was very clear…that he believes it’s important that there’s not a witch hunt.'"


    ###
    It looks like Keith Olbermann will need to make another SPECIAL COMMENT tonight! The one is not listening!.....

    At least today....give Obama another 48 hours and he'll likely change his mind.

    Just like Obama's and the rest of the radical left's stand on The Iraq War...this is a position of pure political calculation, NOT a moral or leadership stand...if it was then there would be a push to prosecute and hold accountable ALL who broke the law as they see it regarding saying they tortured. Period.

    Just like if the war was lost, making us less safe and immoral, the funds should have been cut out of the moral imperiative...

    But Obama and the left's leadership are immoral political hacks, only concerned about their own power and the country's well being is secondary.

    Olbermann better be calling Obama a fascist and demand he resign soon if he is to be the honest broker of truth he thinks he is....afterall, Bush and Cheney TORTURED according to Olbermann, and Obama is supposed to enforce the law....Where are those indictments?

    VERO POSSUMUS!


    If you guys look at that link I posted you'll see what MikeH is all about. But it's probably old news to you. "You don't know me!" and when I see comments by you (allegedly) about a young person who's belief system is based on the fact that he's being abused by his father then I know enough. You don't know us either MikeH but you've seen fit to make your judgments as well.

    I've always wanted to ask a liberal this: Do you even know what a fascist is?

    And you saw the way he took one part of the comments we made and blew them out of proportion with half-ass answers. Guess that's what I get for going 10 rounds with The Hypocrite.

    So, as I understand it, Olbermann is OK with Hannity being waterboarded, even gleeful about it. But, it upsets him terribly that thugs who were involved in the slaying of over 3000 Americans on 9/11, including, supposedly, some of Keith's friends, were waterboarded six years ago. Oh Keith, you poor demented America-hating fuck.

    "BTW, 'what happened on tonight's show' was pure truth....[ding!]!"
    MikeHypocrite referring to last night's COUNTDOWN.


    ###
    Oh boy, what a lie....Allow me to demostrate.

    #4 last night...Olbermann said, "As Mr. Boehner knows, no objections could be raised. Leaders of congress are not asked for approval at these meetings. They are told what is going on and then told not to let the door hit them on the way out. They cannot follow up on illegal activity, they cannot even consult staff to find out even if it is illegal."

    Wrong.

    If waterboarding was torture and so then illegal, as she is contending now, in 2002, when Congresswoman Pelosi was briefed on this illegal procedure, it was her duty to seek out her leader, then minority leader Gephardt, and inform him that the administration was about to break the law.

    The law, according to Olbermann was "settled." An arguable claim, btw....

    But back to MikeHypocrisy's lie....

    This piece shows the error of Olbermann's presentation, so then, not truth.....

    "Lame Excuse By Pelosi"

    http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/apr/24/republicans-hit-pelosi-defense-on-cia-briefings/


    ###
    my oh my, Obama et al sure did change their tune about waterboarding when it cam to public pronouncements versuses doing the right thing to prevent what they now say was illegal activity!

    Poor MikeHypocrite...He comes back to post and within 5 minutes, he screws it all up.....again!

    Unfortunately, via the transcript, Keith "Man on Fan" Clustermann not only attacked Bill over the miniscule, minor, over-everyone's-head-it-happened-so-fast mistake he made in Wednesday's Barack and a Hard Place segment. He also pre-emptively attacked Jesse Watters.

    "Our runner-up, little Jesse [Ding!], Bill-O the Clown's [Ding!] stalker producer [Ding!], bought some shares of GE stock, giving him access to the shareholders meeting. During the open questions part of the event, he and at least one other person affiliated with Fox proceeded to exercise their rights to ask. Little Jesse's [Ding!] question was about Janeane Garofalo's visit here last week, when she suggested the TP crowd was made up largely of racists. He was complaining that Olbermann didn't bother to challenge her, according to another GE shareholder, quoted [Ding!], in several news accounts.
    O'Reilly portrayed this some kind of uprising against GE about, well, me."
    STOP THE TRANSCRIPT. Another Olbermann Lie. This was never about you, Olbermoronn.
    "But now he says it's also about GE making money off cap and trade. So I got Obama elected by attacking Bill. Besides the paranoid delusion [Ding!],..." Speak for yourself, Krazy Keith. "...there are several problems with this today. Little Jesse [Ding!] never identified himself as a Fox News employee when he asked his question, nor did he identify himself as representing Fox News as he tried to interview other GE stock holders in the parking lot afterwards. He simply wore a sticker badge reading share owner.
    He also claimed his microphone had been cut off. It was not. Ever GE share owner who wanted to talk got to, some multiple times. Also, Little Jesse recorded the question and answer session, in violation of corporation rules. And when caught recording it, he lied about whether or not he was recording it.
    Also, two facts completely left out of Fox's reporting, not one GE share holder, not even Little Jesse, complained about the 200 million or whatever it is MSNBC made for the corporation last year. And as the whole events was summed up in the last sentence in the Reuters story about Wednesday's uprising, quote [Ding!], “shares of GE rose 10 cents Wednesday to close at 11.80.”
    Went up another eight cents today. Thanks, Bill."
    That's right, Fat Ass. It went up because of you. It's all about you, the lying, slovenly political hack that you are.
    For the clear-headed, here is last night's Talking Points Memo, Top Story segment, and Reality Check segment. In these, you can see the real story as opposed to Baggermann's Olbsessed fairy tale.

    That was Worser. Here is Worst:
    "But, our winner, Bill-O the historian, the man who made the Americans the war criminals at Malmedy [Ding!], the man who evidently cut most of his history classes, gets into a debate with Alan Colmes about the propriety of Obama meeting Hugo Chavez. “...,” Colmes asks. “...”— Bill-O [Ding!] interrupts, “...” Colmes, “...” -- Bill-O [Ding!] interrupts again, “...” Colmes, flustered, says, “Zhou Enlai, OK.”
    So Bill is saying that when Nixon made his historic trip to China in 1972, he never met with the Chairman Mao? He only met with the premiere Zhou Enlai? Do we have that film?
    So, at the summit here in China in 1972, who is that guy Nixon's shaking hands with, Bill? Alfred Hitchcock?
    Geez! Bill, help me out here. I'm supposed to take you seriously? Bill, who you gonna believe about Mao, me or your lying archival footage, O'Reilly, today's worst person—get a history book—in the world."

    Geez, Keith, we're supposed to take *you* seriously? Good grief.

    I forgot: the Barack and a Hard Place segment. Watch for yourself and see the supposed damning evidence that Media Matters and Keithy played gotcha with.

    And let's not forget that Keith made Monica Crowley the invisible woman.

    Will he be in tonight??????

    Remember, it's the opening night in the Yankees/Red Sox series.

    One can only hope, puck30....however, it is an away game for the Yanks.

    If he is out, we get spared another error and lie filled expose on how America has tortured.

    Although MikeH will be so sad.

    We'll also get spared Another O'Reilly Attack based on the video links I provided.

    Oh Keith, you poor demented America-hating fuck....Rick

    One of the best comments ever on olbermann watch. Short and to the point without all the examples as to why he is a poor demented America-hating fuck. Not that the examples are not note worthy or called for, but just that sometimes I think we all try to persuade the left to see the total hypocrisy of the ape ruler, and unfortunately it all falls on deaf ears.

    They cannot and will not ever see a clear and consise argument proving their boy is in the tank for all things un-American, and the above comment from Rick saves the time and effort than all the wasted energy trying to prove it.

    There is hardly any cursing on this site which does show the maturity and intelligent level of all that post here. A good thing for sure, but at the same time one good one thrown out from time to time to describe all things "olbermann" I think cleanses the soul and made me feel like the filth that he displays every night fell off me like I was caught in a torrential rain. At least until he's on again.

    It is interesting that on the very day when O'Reilly comes out swinging with an earth-shattering lead story that any honest, and fair and balanced news agency would normally drool over (if the media weren't so in the tank for and so heavily invested in the new administration) - the story being that of a media conglomerate potentially in bed with the executive branch in order to further the profits of its parent company - all we get on these boards is a pissing match with an Olbermann defender over a minor "mistake" from the same whistleblower from a couple days ago that cannot compare in stature nor in consequence to the blatant and constant lies and distortions intentionally perpetrated by the point man of this alleged Fascist Cabal.

    It's a classic diversionary tactic of the Left and a fascist one at that; destroy the messenger in order to get you to look over here while they impair your liberties over there.

    So true Lucas, and I'm as guilty as anyone else here. My bad, and I'll try to stay the course in the future.

    Hey....sometimes it's effective.

    Even a communication organizer from the Chicago machine politic - whose wife and friends ain't all that hip with their nation's heritage - can become a president every once in awhile.

    Be vigilant and fight for what we know is right and true.

    Sorry, the guy's ridiculous and I'm sick of him.

    "community" organizer - not "communication" organizer

    ......(I've got engineering on the brain).....

    I'm glad you brought that to our attention, Lucas. I hadn't thought of that. It makes sense now.
    As to the ratings, I've got your reality check right here, Merkle.
    At 8PM, Keith was a strong, yet distant second in total viewers and the 25-54 demo. At 10PM, third in total and 25-54.

    By meerkatpooh on April 23, 2009 8:49 PM
    Apparently KO is willing to pony up some benjamins to see if Hannity will follow through on his promise to get "waterboarded" for charity. HA! Much like he claims he donated 25k or whatever to the "it happened to Alexa" foundation.

    http://patdollard.com/2009/04/olbermann-offers-hannity-1000-for-each-second-of-waterboarding-he-can-endure/

    I don't watch or listen to Hannity, but Shaun wants Olby to back off of this real fast, put in a stipulation that if Hannity can hold out for a certain amount of time, he gets one hour of debate (face to face, no teleprompters allowed) with Olby.

    Olby will drop this faster than a Boston Beatdown!

    And on a sidenote, it seems that the Nova M radio network has gone KAPUT! It was took over by the 'Second Thought Network'. And that collapsed in days. So it seems the great 'Mike Malloy',Nancy Skinner, Randi Rhoades and others are once again UNENPLOYED!

    Tisk! Tisk!

    Be vigilant and fight for what we know is right and true....Lucas

    That's a given, but sometimes even the worst of enemies can fool me with a curveball. Fast balls all the time (as in honesty and integrity when it pertains to olbermann discussions) and I'll bat a 1000.

    He can grab the 'Acela' from Penn Station and be in downtown Boston in a little over 3 and half hours. I'm sure he can get a 'comp.' on a room from NBC. And now with the MLB gig he's gettin' free seats.

    Nice work if you can get it, and you it's tough being Obama's 'Shoe-Shine Boy' 5 days a week.

    Oh wait, when was the last time he put in a full week?

    I think I can confirm Oralmann's blue blog source for Worser: Think Propaganda. The only problem is he credited Reuters and not THR (The Hollywood Reporter).
