Did Olbermann stop responding once Dobbs started saying "He knows nothing about politics, economics and journalism"? This is not the first time I've heard that. Truth hurts baby.
I wanted to join in on the fun. I try to be fair and watch olby but it makes me so mad to see the frothing at the mouth and lies spew from his pie hole, I can not stomach it. I give you all credit for watching this sub-human hater.
I also tried to help and made this picture for you all:

Before I listen to this, I want to go back to Keith throwing the Wolffe Man under the bus [Ding!]. I was thinking about this last night: SNL's Olby sketch with Ben Affleck foreshadowed what eventually happened to Richard. If you remember the sketch, Olby (Affleck) hardly listened to Wolffe (Fred Armisen) when he interviewed him before ending the interview abruptly. Seconds later in the sketch, KO (Affleck) made Wolffie (Armisen) the WPitW. He took something Richard said out of context and said he was, and I'm paraphrasing, "part of the Nazi wing of the Republican Party." Olby (Affleck) added: "Hey, Richard, how much is Halliburton paying you?!?! I hope they're paying you in oil!!!!"
Nine months later, the real Oralmann throw the real Richard Wolffe under the bus [Ding!] for not disclosing that he was part of a lobbying firm with the eeevil Bush guy Dan Bartlett. Man, those SNL writers are oracles!
Harkening back to Keith's health care speshul komment when he said if there was no public option that hell would be rained down on the congress...ha...there will be no public option. Obama has bailed on it.
I want Keith to let it be known that the moment he declared that there must be a public option, I increased the pressure on my reps and I went on an all out blitz through email for the people to put pressure on congress. I wanted Keith to know that his speshul komment was the catalyst for me and many others to step up the pressure on congress. Thanks, Keith.
The left has lost the battle, thanks to Olbermoron and Boy Maddow.
I know this is off topic but I had to post it because it was so disgusting. This writer and her column encompasses the typical elitist, liberal attitude about "average" Americans attending the town hall meetings.
Washington Post Writer Disgusted by Town Hall Protesters 'Lack of Fashion'.
"It seems safe to say that of the hundreds of thousands of style guides currently for sale on Amazon, not one of the didactic, shop-your-closet authors was prescient enough to outline the appropriate attire for those public occasions when good citizens decide to behave like raving lunatics and turn lawmakers into punching bags. What does one wear to a town hall meeting on health care when the sole reason for attending is to shout down one's congressman like a peevish teenager in the midst of a hormonal rage?"
"What would happen if all those unhappy townspeople showed up for these meetings in suit jackets, like high school debaters prepared to take on their opponents with facts and nimble intellect rather than histrionics? Would they garner more respect?"
The funny thing is that just a couple weeks ago Chris Matthews and Barbara Boxer accused the protesters of being from the "Brooks Brothers brigade". So which is it?
The left will use any tactic to discredit and marginalize the protesters because they cannot discredit them with FACTS. That is the M.O. of the DNC, Obama, Olbermann, Matthews, Maddow, Schultz and all the far left loons. First they were "angry mobs", then they turned to manufactured mobs, Un-American, hate groups, right wing extremists and too much of a rukus. Now they dress like slobs so they cannot obviously be educated, informed or practicing their constitutional rights.
They are being attacked FOR WHAT THEY WEAR. Unbelievable.
Hey, I said probably, who knows what'll happen. On one hand you have to reach to your base (as ridiculous as they may be) but you also have to deal with your superiors, who have turned those who disagree with the Obama Administration into Nazis. So if the President shitcans the public option and Olbermann gets mad at him, does that make Olbermann a Nazi?
Brad, don't disgusted over this. I look at it as they are coming 'unhinged'. No doubt this woman has become so un-glued she was not able to stay on the correct talking points.
Folks
You have to remember this about Olby. He doesn't fact check, he probably doesn't have pre-production mettings. He has a walk through with his producer and that's it.
As was stated here in the last few days, The SNL skit hit very close to home. Now, insert Ted Baxter. Olby loves to do him every chance he gets, hence.
Watch Old MTM shows, how close are we there?
Add to this I think his 'puppy love romance' with Katy is falling apart.
The man will be a basket case by Thanksgiving. I only think it will take this long because he does have Sunday Night Football & it looks at moment, The Yankees are in the playoffs. So I'm sure Olby won't be putting in any full weeks in the fall.
Speaking of, how are they going to be able to hide that 'girth' on Sunday Night Football?
Don't remind me , the Giants play allot of Sunday Night. Is there anything dumber than the moniker, "Football in America"? What a globalist pile of shit NBC is.
"You have to remember this about Olby. He doesn't fact check, he probably doesn't have pre-production mettings. He has a walk through with his producer and that's it."
Well, judging from the amount of evidence that a lot of posters (expecially johnny dollar) have exposed about Keithy to the contrary here at Olbywatch, that is probably a correct statement. But, even if Keithy tries to admit to fact checking, that mountain full of evidence to the contrary here at Keithy's fav blog Olbywatch, certainly contradicts that, and it shows what a sloppy "real reporter" Keithy really is!
I keep saying this over and over. The progressives should be able to find a better spokesperson than Keithy. I keep wondering why they don't.
"Almost two weeks after the White House launched its Snitch Central in order to get reports on political dissent over ObamaCare, it appears that the Obama administration and its chief propagandist have quietly thrown in the towel. Matt Drudge reported this morning that all e-mails to flag@whitehouse.gov have begun bouncing back as undeliverable."
###
Aw. The highly partisan and politicized Obama White House has to shut down its little tattle-tale experiment. What a shame!
Olbermann would have had a SPECIAL COMMENT on that little tool if it had been done by Bush, and the words, "fascist," "unconstitutional," and "McCarthy" would have been included in the spit filled diatribe....
###
So true, so true and is the reason why I am against the democrat's House plan for healthcare reform.
I again wait to see if there will be intellectual honesty on the part of Obama's main cheerleader, Keith Olbermann, regarding this issue. If Obama signs a plan with a "co-op" or no public option, will Obermann note the defeat and correctly assign the blame?
Remember now....the republicans cannot do one darn thing in the congress to stop the left from passing whatever legislation they want.
Doubt our Doughboy will have anything to say about this, But after reading it I hope our dope at 8pm ramps up the 'conservative bashing'. For the Kos Kids sake of course.

I love reading Olbermann's silliness when, only one month later, reality once again shows what a total idiot he is.....
The following was from an interview with Howard Dean on July 7. 2009 that started with celebrating the swearing in of Al Franken then transformed into two fellow travelers contemplating their navels....
OLBERMANN: You know, we talked about rubber-stampness last time, and obviously, Democrats got to where they are today by running a nationwide progressive agenda. What happens to the party now if Senator Reid and President Obama let a handful of so-called blue dogs hold that agenda hostage or even slow it down?
DEAN: Well, then there‘s trouble. We‘re going to lose seats in 2010 if we don‘t pass what the president said was change you can believe in.
You know, change—a little change is not change you can believe in.
You need a lot of change, and the president‘s delivered on that so far.
But the health care reform is his biggest—his biggest problem.
[...]
OLBERMANN: As you correctly point out, the public‘s always ahead of the media and the politicians on these things, and if the politicians and the media don‘t listen, they pay the price.
Governor Howard Dean, on the occasion of Al Franken‘s swearing in today—great thanks for your time, sir.
###
So, since the public is ALWAYS ahead of the media and the politicians on these things as Olbermann stated there....how about the CURRENT polling that show the majority of the public wants a pull back on healthcare reform, or that they are not satisfied with the stimulus spending or the many other "anti-Obama" conclusions as of late?....Why does Olbermann now not cover the wisdom of "the public," as he did above?
And Al Franken.....
"A newly released SurveyUSA poll conducted only two weeks into Franken’s tenure finds Minnesotans unsurprisingly divided about how he is conducting himself as their Senator in Washington. The poll finds 43 percent of Gopher State adults approving of his job performance and 45 percent disapproving.
"A recent Smart Politics analysis of Franken’s colleague Amy Klobuchar found her approval ratings approaching a career low at 54 percent in July. Overall, many Democratic and Republican Senators have seen their approval ratings take a hit this year in light of the nation’s economic and budget troubles.
"Still, Franken begins his second month in office with one of the worst net approval ratings among newly elected members to the Senate in recent years. … Franken’s low approval rating should not surprise political observers as the DFLer only received 42 percent of the vote last fall - virtually identical to the percentage of those now approving of his job performance (43 percent)."
The over-reaching on the supposed "mandate" progressives (read: radical leftists) claim from last November is continuing to cause their collapse....Thank goodness.
OLBERMANN: "...the public‘s always ahead of the media and the politicians on these things, and if the politicians and the media don‘t listen, they pay the price."
Well then, how about this poll of public opinion?......
"a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that most voters (54%) say no health care reform passed by Congress this year would be the better option.
"Among those not affiliated with either major party, 23% would like the Congressional reform to pass while 66% would rather the legislators take no action.
###
If Olbermann was intellectually honest, he would have a segment on COUTNDOWN tonight covering the change in, (his previously revered) "public thoughts" on the big Obama rush on healthcare reform....
But we all already know he is not intellectualy honest....so he won't.
Instead he will continue the radical left's politically cynical agenda of trying to marginalize the opposition (which is pretty much failed).
Obama is still out with his campaign stump speech circuit saying doing nothing is not an option.....Why is he against a majority of the American people?
And will he pay a price, like Olbermann once predicted?
Oh boy....this politics stuff is COMPLICATED. Cankles Keith O and SNOBamessiah seem to be just barely treading water now.
