What will make it into tonight's WPitW segment? Could it be this? Maybe, but we're placing on bets on this. It yanks almost every one of Herr Olbermahn's chains, and deservedly so. Read it now so you'll be prepared for tonight's Hour of Spin, then do your recapping right here. Comments are open!
The Weather Channel, an NBC Universal station, just ran a conservative group's (60 Plus) anti-healthcare bill ad! As Keith's posthumous friend, the late Jack Buck would say, I don't believe....what I just saw!
I know about Cankles Bill-o attack tomorrow.
In the Bill's Talking Points memo, it ended with that Obama and his people should be on FNC. and I quote "A NEWS NETWORK THAT MATTERS"!
Talk about slapping Olby in the face.
And what is Obly doing? Right wing militias who hate the fact that our president is BLACK!
So ole fatass says that the only thing that is waiting for the mobs to start something really big is a " SPARK". Well sparky-ole-fatass olbermahn, strike the match, we're waiting. You want a fight, we'll give you a fight. What's the fat slob gonna do now that he can't hide behind mommies skirt? Come out Come out from where ever you are keef.
P.S. who was the guy he had on tonight that only had one eyebrow?
Where does olby find these guys, in dumpsters?
Keith is that kid in first grade who talks tough. Will come up behind your back and pearl harbon you. And while you're running after him, he runs behind the teacher's skirt (mommy) and complain that you are trying to beat him up. Getting you in trouble and getting him sympathy.
People are getting fed up with it.
Or to quote him, "Here Kitty Kitty Kitty" :)
wpitw
3rd- Limbaugh for hitler comparasions.
2nd- Dobbs attack for daring to attack Howie Dean. Calling him a vampire.
WINNER!!
BILLO!!!! for what I predicted about last night's GE attack.
The delporable one said Bill-o "stepped in it now"!
Funny, Keith steps in it EVERY FRAKING NIGHT!
So, Keith, if O'Reilly is liying, SUE HIM!!!

AND TO END IT, HE SAID IF ANY REPORTER MADE STUFF UP LIKE BILL-O DID, THEY WOULD BE FIRED!!! LIKE BILL-O SHOULD BE TONIGHT??????
The Irony meter just hit a BILLION!!!
Is it me? or did Keith not say, "BOR, todays' worst person in the world" or was it on my TV
He did. He telegraphed it.
According to Keith's friends at HuffPo, a GE spokesperson denied Bill's speculative reporting from last night. The guy sounded just like his buddy at the bottom of the GE chain at MSNBC. He might as well have had "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" playing underneath him.
Some relevant "O'Reilly Factor" viewer e-mails from tonight:
Nancy Forrest, Tulsa, OK: "Bill, you told us a long time ago about GE's connections with Iran. I truly believe that if GE shipped modules used in roadside bombs, Attorney General Holder will keep the whole thing secret and not prosecute."
BOR's response: "That is a concern, for sure, Nancy. Again, **we're not making any accusations**, but we will stay on the story."
David Paul, Peoria, IL: "As the CEO of Validus Technologies, I can tell you that the modules are all over the place and can be purchased anywhere in the world."
BOR's response: "Now, that is true, Mr. Paul, but serial numbers can be traced. And we hope the FBI is doing that."
Ray Leadbetter, O'Fallon, IL: "Bill, I greatly appreciate the IED coverage. As a retired vet, I'm disgusted to think an American company might be involved in this."
BOR's response: "If a company is, that'll be the end of them, sir."
John Stempien, Temple, TX: "My dad is a committed leftist and when I turned on the Factor he said: 'I hate Bill O'Reilly.' I asked him if he ever watched your program and he said no. I plan to give him a copy of 'Bold Fresh.'"
BOR's response: "Well, that'll torture him. And it also might wise him up, John. Probably not. Many who hate us do so...*blindly*."
Yeah, just like our Lonesome Olbs.
Olbys grandpa rec-specs seriously add 15 lbs. and 10 yrs. to him. WTF is he doing? Trying to fool people into thinking he's a wise old man? I think I'm in MikeC. territory now, I really cannot even stand to watch 2 minutes of countdown anymore.

I found a link to olbys specs!
Correction: the AP's David Bauder wrote the report with the GE spokesperson response. HuffPo regularly posts stories from other news outlets. I knew that, but blindly went to the OlbyFlood link and didn't notice "David Bauder" and "AP" until another story showed up in the Flood from ICN. Spud was talking about Bauder's story. He also wrote this.
And Syvyn, Spud must have been reading your mind because he asked "If it was really that unconfirmed, as in bogus, why doesn’t GE just sue O’Reilly for defamation?" The question was answered in the first comment to Spud's post.
Bill made it clear that "**we're not making any accusations**." Are you listening, Keithy?
What was the context of the Steve Doocey attack re: 5 questions to ask congressman on health care? Olby said Doocey lifted directed from a website? Olby would never rip n read...
So Cankles is calling for another firing of another journalist at another network, again. Geez, if everyone he wanted fired was actually fired, unemployment would be at 12%.
I saw the clip at MSNBC.com. I don't know what's going on but at 3:27 of the clip the audio goes silent and you don't hear Olby say, "Worst Person in the Woooooorld". The last 6 seconds are gone. I wanted to hear him say "BOR". Can anyone else confirm this or is it just my computer?
Let's go back to last night's unparsed Talking Points Memo:
"Roadside bombs, known as improvised explosive devices (IEDs), are the most deadly weapons the terrorists have on the battlefield.
In Iraq, more than 2,000 Americans have been killed by IEDs, more than 21,000 injured, many maimed for life. In Afghanistan, 252 have been killed by roadside bombs, more than 1,600 wounded.
It is heartbreaking to visit soldiers and Marines rehabbing their injuries, brave young Americans struggling to put their bodies and lives back together. This is the price of protecting Americans from those who would harm us. This is the result of terrorists who use technology to kill and maim.
Sources tell "The Factor" that there is a federal investigation underway to find out if any American company sold components for roadside bombs to nefarious people. In May of 2008, and again in October '08, coalition forces discovered unexploded roadside bombs in Iraq and handed them over to the FBI bureau in Baghdad. The FBI discovered that radio frequency modules inside the bombs were part of a shipment made by a U.S. company to Corezing International, a business in Singapore with direct ties to Iran. The bombs, designed to penetrate armor, contained Maxstream XT09-SINA 900 MHz radio frequency modules, which can be used to explode the bombs by remote control.
According to authorities, these modules are still being used today to kill Americans. The FBI will not comment, and "The Factor" believes the investigation may be classified, because information is very hard to come by.
The former chairman of Maxstream, Brad Walters, told "The Factor" the modules are excellent bomb material and that his company legally sold more than a million of them to other companies for a variety of uses. "The Factor" has been told, but cannot confirm, that the General Electric corporation is under suspicion in the case.
You may recall that GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt denied doing business with Iran to "Factor" producer Jesse Watters but a few weeks later admitted GE's dealings with the mullahs to Michael Eisner on a CNBC program. GE's official position is that they stopped taking orders from Iran in 2005, but any American company could ship stuff to a middleman, like Corezing International.
Tuesday, **"The Factor" sent a list of questions to GE asking if the company does or did business with Corezing International and what the nature of that business is. GE spokesperson Gary Sheffer said by e-mail: "We do no business with Corezing International and have no record of ever having done so."**
To be clear, ***"The Factor" is not accusing anyone of anything. We are just reporting what we believe to be true***. But if any American company did send material to Corezing — again, a major Iranian partner — they must be investigated to the fullest extent. The lives and suffering of our brave military are at stake here.
And that's "The Memo.""
I forgot Sheffer was quoted in the Memo. Based on what Bauder wrote, Sheffer changed his tune to reflect Keith.
Speaking of Keith, to prove how serious he was and how serious a situation he perceived this to be, he played the O'Reilly Attack straight. No Ted Baxter voice, no hyperbolic rhetoric, and the music faded out after the parsed T-Points quote was read. He wanted to show this was a grave situation. After setting a record for using the word "unconfirmed" as an adjective, Keith quoted Sir David Bauder's landmark piece.
Once again, he angrily and fiercely called for Bill's firing! Once again, not on your life, pal. Screw you.
"Reporters like me." Seriously. Reporters like Keith. He's a reporter? Seriously? Its getting diploma time again, doing what Olbs does best, a measuring contest.
As Principal Skinner would say, "Oh Mercy." You know, Principal Skinner, the character from the Simpsons. The show that Olbs watches, the show that he was on like one time (just like Family Guy, which makes him cool like Seth McFarland right? RIGHT?!) therefore making him cool and hip like us young ? somethings. As long as its young right? Like his live in girlfriend that surely loves a ride on the bear train. Like he was when he entered Bovine U. Like the Kossaks on the dailykooks. See, young, like his viewers that DEFINITELY buy what GE is hocking.
The lesson folks... Like Mathau and Russert, remember, they liked him and or his politics. And as long as those and others are dead who love him, who can say he's wrong? But we can definitely say he's cool, like us, young people! Well, as cool as being a fat angry biased insecure arrogant stuck up vulnerable misogynistic pervert perpetually dating a woman half his age can be.
Yeah. Canker sore Cankles is reporting that Deano's brother has emailed his ENTIRE address book (what, like 14 preople? HA!) to help him DEMAND thart CNN fire Dobbs. WTF!? Possibly I misunderstood?
More like "Here pussy, pussy, pussy........"
The latest story in the Olbermann Flood is this. In it, my decision not to transcribe what I heard in Spud's embedded WPitW video is affirmed. Chris Ariens at TVNewser did it for me. As you referred to, KOlby, Merkle said "If I -- or any actual reporter, like me -- had gotten as much wrong in any story as Bill O'Reilly got wrong in this one, I'd be fired in 15 minutes. As he should be now!"
And just like you said, KOlby, I say this: Him? Reporter? Another Olbermann Lie. I think that line of his should be used in a new installment of Great Moments in Journalism.

Olby went into DEFCON 2 tonight during Bill-O's Worst segment. No funny voice. No pipeorgan music. No " Worst Person In the WORRRRRRLD!" I guess he was wearing his 'serious reporter's' hat.
Observation: I have not seen Olby as bat-shit goofy and out of control-unravelling as he is now, due to the "truce".
O'Reilly has invited O'bama to come on The Factor to clarify his healthcare proposals. Absolute genius move. Olbermann has no counter, he with the dwindling audience. Stay tuned...
He with the dwindling audience, but the growing glasses. :D
lol Olby a reporter, anytime news happens he's either in the tub or not reporting it.
Reporter? Yep, and the check's in the mail and Tur's tits are REAL! We're only looking for the truth........RIGHT?
Bottom of the hour comes the most gut-wrenching decision of the night........go to KO's baseball blog (OMG-No!) or watch "Oddball." Kinda like deciding between Madcow and Richard Simmons for your bedtime partner or whether you'd like the liquid drain cleaner in the mouth or the ass.
Forgive please. I'm truly losin' it.
I read some articles about the BOR/G.E. story that were interesting. First, would BOR stake his career and reputation on a story he knows to be false? This would put him right up there with Dan Rather. I believe someone leaked this information to BOR and he decided to air the story for two reasons.
1) If G.E. wants to file a defamation suit, the defense (Fox News) will have a right to discovery and G.E. will have to comply with full disclosure. G.E. will never do this and BOR knows it.
2) Just like BOR stated last night...the documents are probably classified and will never see the light of day unless the charges can be proven.
I also believe G.E. just wants this story to go away. They will not bring a suit against BOR and Fox News because they could never prove their case and they don't want to make their records public. They had to respond to the allegation but I will bet that this story will never be brought up again unless one side can drop a serious bomb. I also bet that the management at G.E. specifically told Olby to drop the story after tonight and never mention it again. My only hope is that he defies their orders and they have no alternative but to kick his ass to the curb.
That being said...I just had to laugh at Cankles (again) when he referred to himself as a "real reporter". Thanks for the laugh, Fatso, I really needed it.
Bathtub Boy's impression of Lou Dobbs sounds a lot like a drunk "Marvin Martian" if you ask me.

Observation: I have not seen Olby as bat-shit goofy and out of control-unravelling as he is now, due to the "truce".
Dan Im going out on a limb here but I don't think this has anything to do with 'The Truce'. I think this has more to do with what's going on at the homefront.
Might have missed this, (I saw it in page six in the Post) It seems Olby pulled his huge weight around to get Katy a job at NBC4 New York.
NBC4 is in the same building as MSNBC.
Has it accured to anybody that while Katy was out there in the mid-west away from Olby, she might have spent sometime in a storm basement with some 'Hard Body'? And now she has to be back at home with 'Lard Body'.
Unless she's a 'Chubby Chaser', once you go hard, you don't go back to Lard.
Minute Man vs Mr. All Night Long?
Well, as everybody knows that when a relationship starts going south, if it's not mutual, somebody always becomes un-glued. And I've noticed that since he came back from Vacation he's been getting worse.
NBC will not fire him! They want him to walk! That's around 22 mil. they could save and nobody will want him after this. The best Keith will get is some gig at NPR, if his bizzare rantings at Dailykos don't make him toxic beforehand.
No job, No Katy, Nobody wants him. I think in his baseball blog he talked about a relative in Rochester or Buffalo? Thats where he will end up. A broken down, washed up, has been. Living at some relative's house in Upstate NY and doing weekend sports at WGRZ.
And then one day, Olby will just go MAD! They will find him in a bathrobe, wandering the streets trying to sell his baseball card, and screaming at people. DON'T YOU KNOW ME? I'M A REPORTER! I'M EDWARD R. MURROW!
And then, they will put him away.
"Oh, and one more thing. I was once employed by MSNBC. Speaking as an MSNBC insider, I regret to inform you: We MSNBC-ers hate the military, loathe cops, despise the South and absolutely detest Christians. No really, take it from me -- I'm an old MSNBC hand."

The real Cornell alum strikes again with a really well written rebuttal to the race baiting and sheer destructive rhetoric the left has decided to use these past several months.
America is turning into a very divisive and angry place under the leadership of the left. Obama and the democrats have ushered in an era of snap judgements concluding people are racist, ignorant, unpatriotic and intolerant.
Hatred, like that spewed during COUNTDOWN each evening, is now the accepted state for the left. God Bless 'em! Leopards can't change their stripes.

Muted mongrel prediction for tonight's COUNTDOWN (otherwise known as the Church of SNOBamessiah Revival Hour....we do not speak ill of the leader!):
"The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 29% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-seven percent (37%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -8.
[...]
"Overall, 47% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That’s the lowest level of total approval yet recorded. The President’s ratings first fell below 50% just a few weeks ago on July 25. Fifty-two percent (52%) now disapprove.
"Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Republicans disapprove along with 65% of those not affiliated with either party."

Ah, remember the good ol' days when EVERY negative presidential approval poll for George W. Bush was part of one of the "stories you'll be talking about tomorrow?"
Intellectual honesty, objectivity, or fairness from Cankles Keith O?.....Nah, never....why tamper with such a successful formula that is producing such great ratings and contributes to the peaceful, fair and rational debate needed in our nation presently?....
COUNTDOWN with Cankles Keith Olbermann....what a quality product from NBC NEWS.

COUNTDOWN with Cankles Keith Olbermann....what a quality product from NBC NEWS.
Well I'm sure Olby will have his buddy on tonight to talk about this!!
"Even columnist Eugene Robinson, a self-described “true believer” who “will almost certainly support” “whatever reform package finally emerges”, agrees that “If the government says it has to control health-care costs and then offers to pay doctors to give advice about hospice care, citizens are not delusional to conclude that the goal is to reduce end-of-life spending.”
http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=116471698434
WTF Eugene????????????
Yep...former governor Palin quarnteed a spot n COUNTDOWN tonight.
And do you know what is really ironic?....It seems the end-of-life counceling emphsis will not be a part of any final bill anyway.....
"The cost of caring for patients who are near death accounts for a big piece of the government's medical spending. But a furor over a provision for government-paid counseling to plan for end-of-life care is steering lawmakers away from the issue."
[...]
"'There is some fear because in the House bill, there is counseling for end of life,' Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley, the top Republican on the Senate Finance panel, said at a public meeting in his home state Wednesday. 'You shouldn't have counseling at the end of life. You ought to have counseling 20 years before you're going to die....And I don't have any problem with things like living wills. But they ought to be done within the family.'"
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB125012322203627701.html
###
So it seems Palin and her argument has made an impact on this debate. Will that be covered tonight on COUTNDOWN?....
Unlikely....it does not have the comedic and demogogic value Olbermann seeks.

VERO POSSUMUS! WTF?
Its funny that I read the article by Ann, because the town of Winter Haven is where i live and where i have lived all of my life. I dont know who this Kathleen Parker is, but she doesnt sound like anyone from my town. We are a mixed group of blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, etc. We definately arent that southern, as she makes us out to be. Ive only heard of one former klansman living in my town but has since died of old age. There really isnt that many people flying a confederate flag either. Ive been to Mississippi and THEY love their confederacy. This woman sounds like people that move to Hollywood and automatically adopt the thinking of Hollywood and pretends their so superior than the rest of humanity. This woman needs to stop tainting my town with her kooky leftwing thinking.
Like I posted above, (in error 3x, sorry folks), Olbermann will overlook poor pooling for Obama tonight unlike the previous occupant of The White House....Here's another HUGE change in the polling that makes things look pretty bad for Obama....
Rasmussen: GOP now more trusted on health care than Democrats
"Public support for the health care reform plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats has fallen to a new low with just 42% of U.S. voters now in favor of it. That’s down five points from two weeks ago and down eight points from six weeks ago.
"Overall, Republicans lead Democrats in terms of voter trust on eight out of 10 key issues for the second consecutive month, and the two are tied on one issue.
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/mood_of_america/trust_on_issues
###
Again, why will these polls, and many others, showing Obama not having the majority of public support for his radical agenda, not be covered on COUNTDOWN?.....Because that does not serve the radical, anti-America agenda of the left for whom Cankles Keith O is serving.
Obama is the government now and should be held to account for his agenda, rhetoric, behavior (how about the snitch site?) not served and worshiped by self-described "journalists."
Funny....Olbermann declared he was a reporter last night.....Let's see some reporting then....I haven't seen any yet in monitoring his activities for over 4 years here at OW.
NBC NEWS.....a laughing stock.
Gene Robinson's days are numbered as a Countdown contributor.
Dana Millbank- GONE
Richard Wolffe- GONE
Craig Crawford- MIA
Also...Howard Fineman just doesn't want to come around much anymore. Poor Olby of the dwindling audience (and growing glasses).
John Gibson played Keith's bit on the rise of militias in Hour 1 of his radio show today.
It was part of a larger discussion of MSNBC's reportage, so to speak, of a guy that brought a gun to the President's town hall in Portsmouth, NH...or something. Maddow and Matthews clips were also played.
Speaking of MIA: What happened to Keithee's "WTF!" segments?
Wednesday's numbers. How did inauthentic reporter Olbermann fare last night? Well...
At 8:00 in total:
BOR: 3,788,000
KO: 1,136,000
At 8:00 in 25-54:
BOR: 1,080,000
KO: 405,000
At 10:00 in total:
GVS: 2,469,000
KO: 828,000
At 10:00 in 25-54:
GVS: 790,000
KO: 264,000
Always a pleasure to watch him lose badly in the ratings.
Check out this statement from Ed Schultz via Newsbusters:
"Sometimes I think they want Obama to get shot. I do. I really think that there are conservative broadcasters in this country who would love to see Obama taken out. They fear socialism. They fear Marxism. They fear that the United States of America won't be the United States of America anymore."
So, if you fear socialism and Marxism that means you want the President shot?
Will Cankles call for Special Ed's firing for the FEAR MONGERING or HATRED?
So the next time some idiot over at MSNBC accuses ANYONE of being evil or a right wing extremist just show them that quote. It speaks volumes about the type of hypocrisy at that loony network.
He's too busy calling for the firing of FNC personalities.
Meanwhile, also via NewsBusters, guess what Keith did after angrily calling for O'Reilly's firing? He, along with former comedian Christian Finnegan, went after Rep. Michele Bachmann's son. Blue blog source (cited in NB piece): Jon Tevlin at the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, who himself cited a Kos-like anti-Bachmann blog.
This isn't the first time pseudo-reporter Keith has gone after the children of people he hates. The list includes Steve Doocy, Lou Dobbs, former President George W. Bush, and of course, Bill O'Reilly. And don't give me the "they're fair game" canard. No matter the age, children of public figures off limits.
Let me rephrase that: Keith and his komedy pal used her son as a club to beat her over the head with.
So to say, then it must be alright for US to use keith's (passed away) mommy to hammer him. I say lets have at it to show him what it's like to go after people that should be off limits. I mean why not, keith's using the same tactics here. The guy is off the deep end and needs to be taken out once and for all. It would be extremely great that if ALL of the FOX people day and night, go after the fat slob, use his and fatso Ed's names along with that dope Matthews. We don't need to worry about the dike lezbo mancow, she's just a wack job all by herself. It's time for ALL to call olbermahn out for all of his lies, biased crap.
