Bill O'Reilly just called the Toldeo Mud Hens an AA baseball team. They're AAA. It is clear that O'Reilly is a political commentator pretending to be a baseball historian. Could be worse, O'Reilly could be a baseball historian pretending to be a political commentator.

Bill O'Reilly: Tomorrow night's worst ... person ... in the world!

BTW Olbermann, you can thank me for that tidbit later. This way you can spend more time rip n reading other stuff.

Way to channel KO, CJ. I fear you'll be right. In addition, he mocked MSNBC and the BillOReilly.com poll had 67% of poll voters saying they trusted MSNBC the least.

Why do you fear it? It's such a minute detail that only a pathetic loser like Olbermann, who has nothing better to put on his show would pick it up and spend precious airtime on it.

You know me; I never like attacks on O'Reilly.

Bronze:Bill-O! For dare saying Health Care will bankrupt us.

and Keith- WERE TALKING NOT BILLIONS (as if that wasn't enough) WERE TALKING

Silver: Beck for losing sponsers. Saying Beck was suspended. Attacked Beck for attacking Czars.

And bonus points- saying that Beck threatened the government.

GOLD: Wally Herder-r, for daring disagreeing with our democratic gods. Olby can't understand sarcasm.

ANOTHER AWARD WINNING COUNTDOWN!!!

Now I'm off to puke my guts out.

I meant to say "were talking TRILLIONS". Sorry, typing too fast for my mind.

I think tonight's O'Reilly Attack is based on what Bill said Thursday in the Talking Points Memo.
VIDEO
TRANSCRIPT

And of course you just KNEW he'd take credit for saying that they broke the story on the MJ death being a homicide. He'll do anything to keep that 18-34 audience that supposedly is crushing BOR in the ratings, which we really never see.

So what's with KO's new signoff phrase? Has he stopped being the next Murrow?

What *is* the new phrase?
I'm halfway through the "Cronkite Remembers" documentary that I bought on 3 DVDs a few weeks ago. Ed Murrow came up in that a few times, and so did "Good night and good luck."

I surfed by just long enough to hear Keith say that it is a house of representatives constitutional duty to tell a protester to just up. Constitutional scholar, Keith Olbermann.

ENOUGH! RESIGN!

So, according to Olby logic, if a Republican holds a town hall meeting it is a "little fascist rally"? A new term coined by this idiot if you oppose Obamacare. So not only is President Bush a fascist, YOU are a fascist too.

And he accuses Glenn Beck of going off on a "paranoid, comical rant"?

P.S. And yes, the Toledo Mud Hens are a AAA baseball team. I worked on their ground crew for 2 summers after high school. I made $3.25/hour and worked about 60 hours a week but to this day was the best job and the most fun I've ever had at work in my life. I had a chance to talk with Dion Sanders for about 5 minutes while he was playing for the Richmond Braves along with other minor league players who went on to become stars in the majors.

"The rest of us think you're a joke and a comedian!" snorted The Fat One to Joe Lieberman. Lieberman simply welcomed Alec Baldwin to run against him.
Lieberman has more class in his bowel movement than Olbermann has in his entire family tree.
Did I hear tough-guy Olbermann call some folks "bastards" yesterday? What was their crime?

What Lieberman said was received differently on "The Factor" tonight.

Cankles Keith O attacked Mark Levin last week for nothing specific. He simply dismissed Levin's book, LIBERTY & TYRANNY, as less than a comic book while discussing why Limbaugh was WPitW in his mind (for the nth time).

So last night, Levin hit back.....I do not recall anything specific other than, "....watching overbite's show is like having poison ivy on your genitalia."

Levin does link OW on his website....

http://www.marklevinshow.com/Article.asp?id=1291114

Ed and Olby are angry and mean
"God damn" and "bastards" is quite obscene
NBC status quo
Is to reach a new low
So they roll out John and Howard Dean

Olby's insanity continues to grow:

"At the MSNBC of the late '90s we rather quickly figured out that they already had the news; what they wanted was analysis, perspective, commentary, and even screaming matches. But the network dropped that (in large part because I left in late '98)..."--K.O. at kos

An excellent analysis of the current, and fundamental, flaw of Barack Obama, his supporters and his ideology.....

"The Obama devotees were the victims of their own belief in political magic. The devotees could not make up their minds. In a newly minted U.S. senator from Illinois, they saw the embodiment of Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy. Like Lincoln, Mr. Obama was tall and thin and from Illinois, and the historic campaign was launched out of Springfield. The oath of office was taken on the Lincoln Bible. Like FDR, he had a huge economic challenge, and he better get it done, repair and streamline the economy in his "first hundred days." Like JFK, he was young and stylish, with a young family.

"All this hero-worship before Mr. Obama met his first test of leadership. In reality, he was who he was, a Chicago politician who had done well by his opposition to the Iraq war. He had run a skillful campaign, and had met a Clinton machine that had run out of tricks and a McCain campaign that never understood the nature of the contest of 2008.

"He was no FDR, and besides the history of the depression—the real history—bears little resemblance to the received narrative of the nation instantly rescued, in the course of 100 days or 200 days, by an interventionist state. The economic distress had been so deep and relentless that FDR began his second term, in 1937, with the economy still in the grip of recession.

"Nor was JFK about style. He had known military service and combat, and familial loss; he had run in 1960 as a hawk committed to the nation's victory in the Cold War. He and his rival, Richard Nixon, shared a fundamental outlook on American power and its burdens.

"Now that realism about Mr. Obama has begun to sink in, these iconic figures of history had best be left alone. They can't rescue the Obama presidency. Their magic can't be his. Mr. Obama isn't Lincoln with a BlackBerry. Those great personages are made by history, in the course of history, and not by the spinners or the smitten talking heads.

[...]

"...there is joylessness in Mr. Obama. He is a scold, the "Yes we can!" mantra is shallow, and at any rate, it is about the coming to power of a man, and a political class, invested in its own sense of smarts and wisdom, and its right to alter the social contract of the land. In this view, the country had lost its way and the new leader and the political class arrayed around him will bring it back to the right path.

"Thus the moment of crisis would become an opportunity to push through a political economy of redistribution and a foreign policy of American penance. The independent voters were the first to break ranks. They hadn't underwritten this fundamental change in the American polity when they cast their votes for Mr. Obama.

"American democracy has never been democracy by plebiscite, a process by which a leader is anointed, then the populace steps out of the way, and the anointed one puts his political program in place. In the American tradition, the "mandate of heaven" is gained and lost every day and people talk back to their leaders. They are not held in thrall by them. The leaders are not infallible or a breed apart. That way is the Third World way, the way it plays out in Arab and Latin American politics.

"Those protesters in those town-hall meetings have served notice that Mr. Obama's charismatic moment has passed. Once again, the belief in that American exception that set this nation apart from other lands is re-emerging. Health care is the tip of the iceberg. Beneath it is an unease with the way the verdict of the 2008 election was read by those who prevailed. It shall be seen whether the man swept into office in the moment of national panic will adjust to the nation's recovery of its self-confidence."

And as the Obama administration destroy the reputations and possibly punish the very people who kept the innocent safe after 9/11,
the good and fair people of our nation will continue to rise up against the left's political elite. Thank God!

VERO POSSUMUS! Wee weed?

With the WSJ analysis highlighted by cee and the reality of the grim economic numbers that OMB has to choke on, the power hungry and craven Rahm Emanuel is having the locks changed on the White House while Obama is gone.

The vacationer in chief is nothing but a suit and a teleprompter. He barely passes for a used car salesman.

The bloom is off the rose, Keith. The party is over. The only thing left is to sweep up the shreds of HR 3200 that the drunk democrats threw out at midnight. The democrats won't push anything radical now, if they push anything at all. It's time to see you, Keith, rain hell down on them. They have failed.

ENOUGH! RESIGN!

Somethings write themselves.

Katie Couric tries to help Olby:

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/08/24/couricandco/entry5262010.shtml

Just in case Olbermann tries to spin the information released regarding EIT, here is the actual text (I bolded some areas):

"The waterboard has been used on three detainees….Prior to the use of EITs, Abu Zubaydah provided information for [redacted] intelligence reports. Interrogators applied the waterboard to Abu Zubaydah at least 83 times during August 2002. [The report explains that each application of water is counted separately, and most of the 83 applications lasted less than ten seconds.] During the period between the end of the use of the waterboard and 30 April 2003, he provided information for approximately [redacted] intelligence reports. It is not possible to say definitively that the waterboard is the reason for Abu Zubaydah’s increased production, or if another factor, such as the length of detention, was the catalyst. Since the use of the waterboard, however, Abu Zubaydah has appeared to be cooperative.

"With respect to Al-Nashiri, [redacted] reported two waterboard sessions in November 2002, after which the psychologist/interrogators determined that Al-Nashiri was compliant….Because of the litany of techniques used by different interrogators over a relatively short period of time, it is difficult to identify exactly why Al-Nashiri became more willing to provide information. However, following the use of EITs, he provided information about his most current operational planning and [redacted] as opposed to the historical information he provided before the use of EITs.

"On the other hand, Khalid Shaykh Muhammad, an accomplished resistor, provided only a few intelligence reports prior to the use of the waterboard, and analysis of that information revealed that much of it was outdated, inaccurate, or incomplete. As a means of less active resistance, at the beginning of their interrogation, detainees routinely provide information that they know is already known.

"Khalid Shaykh Muhammad received 183 applications of the waterboard in March 2003. He provided information that helped lead to the arrests of terrorists including Sayfullah Paracha and his son Uzair Paracha, businessmen who Khalid Shaykh Muhammad planned to use to smuggle explosives into the United States; Saleh Almari, a sleeper operative in New York; and Majid Khan, an operative who could enter the United States easily and was tasked to research attacks [redacted]. Khalid Shaykh Muhammad’s information also led to the investigation and prosecution of Iyman Faris, the truck driver arrested in early 2003 in Ohio."

So, when Obama's chief apologist, Cankles Keith O, tries to spin Cheney as a liar, let us remember this piece of evidence of what the professional and heroic CIA agents accomplished after 9/11 in keeping us all safe.

I dare Keith Olbermann have either Cheney of his daughter on his show to debate this issue....A simple dare for a simple man.

VERO POSSUMUS! Wee weed?

Olbermann is proving once again, what an idiot he is with a comment on DailyKos today in reaction to another poster worried that the Beck boycott will lead to other's, like him, having problems with advertisers:

"Have to tell you I get the same reaction each time I read a forecast here of a "return to real news" in the event Beck gets cancelled.

"This device we are using rightchere - the intertubes - is rather quickly killing the current business model of news. Fox and MSNBC started at essentially the same time, and initially MSNBC succeeded because it stopped assuming viewers were tuning in to find out basic information.

"At the MSNBC of the late '90s we rather quickly figured out that they already had the news; what they wanted was analysis, perspective, commentary, and even screaming matches. But the network dropped that (in large part because I left in late '98) while Fox gradually eliminated all of its hard news coverage to go commentary/propaganda 24/7. They shot through the roof, MSNBC nearly vanished, CNN began a steady decline.

"This is not a reversible trend. Barring the coverage of actual, as-it-happens coverage of breaking events (or the occasional scoop), television is no longer the first source of news information for people, no more so than radio is, or printed newspapers or magazines. It's websites for raw info, everything else for, for want of a better word, "meaning."

"That's what those of us who loathe Fox often forget. Their viewers think they are getting cogent, behind-the-scenes, reasoned analysis. It's a kind of mutual delusion but that doesn't make it any less true to them.

"Thus the cancellation of Beck would not result in Fox cleaning up its act, nor in a domino-theory of advertiser cancellations elsewhere (I know about the NPR report, I've seen similar print stories - they're hogwash. The only areas in all of television that have grown in ad revenue the last three years have been in cable news. The only). Note that most of the advertisers (all, I think, except UPS) simply shifting their ad buys to other Fox shows - like Hannity, O'Reilly, the morning crap, etc.

"The Beck advertiser backlash might, might, might kill him off. But if it does, he'll be replaced by some milder version, like Judge Napolitano, or an hour of Brian Kilmeade.

"More likely, the backlash will not cancel the Beck show. Its value will be to remind Beck, and Fox, that there are places they cannot go without getting damaged. It's the Muhammad Ali philosophy: you come into my area, you will not hurt me and - pow! - take that with you as you leave."

Once again we see Olbermann publically stroking his ego trying to make himeself believe he is superior to the Becks, Hannitys, Limbaughs and O'Reillys of the world....Sorry Olbermann....you are looking in a mirror and only seeing the right-wing version of what you put up every night!

Hee, hee, hee...he is a dote. Recall when Olbermann called Bush a fascist?....No different than the opinion Beck screams about Obama....except that at least FNC is honest in advertising Beck as a commentator....a partisan.....while Olbermann and NBC NEWS continue to lie about his creds....

Journalist?.....I think not.

VERO POSSUMUS! Wee weed?

I've given up posting links to each night's ratings. It's the same thing every night: FNC dominates, Keith comes in a distant second at 8:00 and 10:00. The end.

MikeC, monotonous, isnt' it?

Yes. Redundant, too.
