People are starting to wonder if Keith Olbermann has spiraling toward the career meltdown so many have speculated about for years. It was just a few days ago when he attacked ESPN's Bill Simmons as a hack with "no discernible insight or talent". (Keep in mind that ESPN and Olby parted company on less than friendly terms.)
A storm of commenters reacted to Oralmann's rant to the point where Keith had to cleanse the comment thread of those pesky dissenting voices. Sort of like he does every night on The Hour of Spin.
But Olby believes that no opportunity to personally attack someone on his 'enemies' list should go to waste, so he has doubled down and launched a new invective-filled salvo at Simmons. If you don't believe that paranoia strikes deep, then how else to explain Olbermann's latest delusion--that Simmons is cyber-stalking him in the comments while disguising himself under a panoply of pseudonymns:
And we now encourage Mr. Simmons to again falme [sic] the comments section under various identities, to his heart's content.
Oh there's a lot more hate from Krazy Keith so read the whole thing. And then check out Jed Eckert's latest take on all this:
This may just be a frivolous and minor spat among relatively minor media players, but it goes to a pattern of unraveling for Keith. Why gratuitously attack "The Sports Guy?" What did he ever do to you? He's a successful figure at ESPN, so there's probably some jealousy factoring in, but come on.... By the way, Simmons' reference to Keith living alone could have something to do with rumors about the stalker's once live-in girlfriend, Katy Tur (pictured below in happier times.) We hear that Katy has had enough of Keith and has flown the coop. Maybe he can reignite his affair with karmabites1!
Discuss, resolve, recap. Comments are open!
Someone got:
OLBEROWNED!!!!!!!
And while I'm at it,
"If you don't believe that paranoia strikes deep, then how else to explain Olbermann's latest delusion--that Simmons is cyber-stalking him in the comments while disguising himself under a panoply of pseudonymns"
This coming from people who think I'm Markos Moulistas, Keith Olbermann, the love child between the two, or think that Keith Olbermann and Markos Moulistas are the same person.
Irony 101
His father being sick and if it's true his girlfriend left him could explain a lot about his recent meltdown. I'm just waiting for the next episode to unfold.
I know this is off topic but I couldn't believe what Dan Rather said about Obama:
http://newsbusters.org/blogs/geoffrey-dickens/2010/03/08/dan-rather-articulate-obama-couldnt-even-sell-watermelons#comments
"Listen he's a nice person, he's very articulate" this is what's been used against him, "but he couldn't sell watermelons if it, you gave him the state troopers to flag down the traffic."
Wow. Let's see who covers this story and if they condemn Rather's statement and call him "racist".
How is that racist?
Hey Carlos - Maybe if you would have not played so much Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance you might have done better in football you wuss....
I'll give you pass for your ignorance because you are still....
Young
Dumb
and full of Olbermanns Scum....
You my friend are the poster child of what our Government schools have produced!!!!
How is showing Obama in the Joker makeup rascist?
How is opposing health care legislation rascist?
How is hoping Obama fails to enact his policies rascist?
How is saying Obama's mother was a single parent rascist?
And on and on from Olbermann in all his claims that people he disagress with are rascists.
I would think brad90956 was being sarcastic by pointing out how the race industry in America finds rascism in everything. I gaurentee that any one outside the far left would have made that staement and the race industry people would be up in arms, they may yet since Rather, although a liberal, is still white.
Oh, as far as anyone getting "olberowned" I think this comment is all the "owning" to date:
"KO, please know the feeling is mutual. You’re my worst case scenario for my career in 12 yrs: a pious, unlikable blowhard who lives alone"
CRAZY LARRY IS BACK!!!
Another week of Keith on the tub.
(Keep in mind that ESPN and Olby parted company on less than friendly terms.)
Make that, He's banned from the ESPN campus in Bristol CT.
MKDAWUSS,
Being a new commenter here, I'm not going to try and pick you apart better than the likes of Johnny $ and the others. I'm still waiting for a substantial rebuttal to one of their posts. There's been absolutely nothing of substance from you.
Coward.
This line from "Fraud Olberschmuck" caught my attention
"In the interim I am again left to marvel how somebody can rise to a fairly prominent media position with no discernible insight or talent, save for an apparent ability to mix up a vast bowl of word salad very quickly."
So...how DID you get this gig anyway Keith , a lot of us ask that same question, including those at NBC News, Comcast, ESPN , KCBS TV , WCVB TV ..FOX SPORTS NET ...etc.
Sound like you might as well change the name to COUNTDOWN with Larry O Donnell
"So...how DID you get this gig anyway Keith"
This should help:
MKDAWUSS - A.K.A. Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance Wuss
The picture of looks as if he trying to sneak out a fart....
/I'm just saying....
Countdown to the end, sweet silence how far off could it be?
After reading Keiths history seems he likes to nuke any bridge he crosses, The questions arises, Where could this knucklehead get job? If a leftist the scope of olbertwat self destruct where would he go?
Obama Admin? hopefully two year gig
HSN nope
Air America ooops that business model failed
By Dinky on March 8, 2010 8:43 PM
I don't know, looks more like he's dreaming of that Pepperoni Pizza he ordered for after the show.
Putting in a whole hour of work can work up a powerful appetite.
MKDACOWARD, perhaps you would care to explain why all the comments were removed when Olbermann, when he was first given the blog, said he wouldn't erase comments:
http://www.olbermannwatch.com/archives/2009/04/olbermann_elimi.php#comments
Since you are the Olbermann apologist here please explain this. Or are you going to be a coward again.
MKDACOWARD could you please refresh our memory?
Which personality is banned from ESPN for being an a-hole? Bill Simmons or Keith Olbermann?
MKDACOWARD perhaps you could explain something else for us?
Why in the world would a man, who has made it perfectly clear that the only thing that matters is his father's health, waste his time trading jabs with a sports columnist?
Please explain. Because Olbermann can do no wrong right?
We all know you're as gutless as your hero so it's possible I'm just talking to myself, but I'd love to hear your opinion on this one.
1. Where did he say that?
2. When did he say that?
I don't read or follow his baseball blog because I don't follow baseball. If he had a football blog, I would follow that, though.
Also, that's almost a year old.
Kieth Olbermann and the truth an example of an oxymoron.
"Also, that's almost a year old."
What's your point? He still said it. I know it may seem like a chore, but feel free to read it yourself:
http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090421&content_id=4368666&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb
So now it doesn't count because it's almost a year old? That's your defense?
That's pretty pathetic.
"Why in the world would a man, who has made it perfectly clear that the only thing that matters is his father's health, waste his time trading jabs with a sports columnist?"
And he's not allowed to take a few minutes to resume some sort of activity that brings his life some level of normalcy?
Also, it's easier to be at your father's side typing on a laptop than it is during a news show. Do you want Keith-O leaving right after Oddball during a show because he got called to the hospital because something developed with his father and now Larry O'Donnell, David Shuster, or some MSNBC intern has to carry on for the #3, WPITW, and the #1 story? I could only imagine the type of cheap shots you'd all take if that hypothetical were to happen.
MKDAWUSS is one of the saddest commenter's I have ever seen.
I provide evidence of Keith Olbermann's hypocrisy and his defense is "it's almost a year old."
People like me ask him legit questions (because Lord knows we could use some debate around here) and he twists things or-and this is the more likely scenario-he runs away.
MKDAWUSS, because you're clearly inept at doing it yourself, please find someone that can properly defend the champion of the Progressive movement.
"And he's not allowed to take a few minutes to resume some sort of activity that brings his life some level of normalcy?"
You're absolutely right. Insulting people on top of making ridiculous accusations (such as Simmons flooding his blog with comments) is "some level of normalcy" for Keith Olbermann.
And just so we're clear on that last one:
http://www.dailykos.com/comments/2010/1/13/223047/045/44#c44
Thank you so much. You honestly couldn't have said it better. "Normalcy" for Keith Olbermann is insulting people and making up bs about them.
The point is, you keep digging up old stuff in some attempt of it being relevant. We know, in Conservaland you're not allowed to change and develop and evolve at all, unless you're John McCain in the 2008 Presidential elections, where your past stances on issues were simply forgotten.
Also, he never said that he wouldn't delete offensive comments in that article.
Moving the goalposts and changing the subject, I see.
Anyway, Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) was on tonight in #5A. I wouldn't have expected him to show up on the Hour of Spin, but there he was. Ken Starr was the guest in #3, but only because he was speaking against conversatives.
"'Normalcy' for Keith Olbermann is insulting people and making up bs about them."
He wouldn't do something like that. He has class. He has dignity. He has integrity. When he calls out the liars, frauds, hypocrites, and misinformers, he does so with facts at his side. Show me one story (on Countdown, DK, or MLB) where makes an unsubstantiated claim with no source to back it up. You can't do it, because each story has a source that provides the basis for his claim.
How about when he attacked Matt Drudge, making up out of thin air the claim that he got a leak from the White House? Turned out it was from someone at ABC.
How about when he claimed Sarah Palin cut special olympics spending, when she actually increased it?
How about when he made up out of thin air the notion that CBS fired Bernard Goldberg? He made the same untrue smear about several people who left NBC as well.
How about his lie about Scott Brown?
How about his lie about Rush Limbaugh's website?
How about... (continue ad infinitum...see our top ten lies posts for more)
"Also, he never said that he wouldn't delete offensive comments in that article."
First off, since you said you don't read the blog, how do you know what was offensive? Do you or don't you read the blog? Because if you don't follow the blog (and you said you didn't) you wouldn't know what was deleted because it was offensive or not.
Second, "Given the nature of his political commentary and the highly charged emotions of that crowd, Olbermann offered this advice for any fans eager to flame him on the comments of his MLBAM content: 'I don't care.'"
It's not about "offensive comments". It's about Olbermann saying he'd let people voice their opinion. It's apparent that he is not allowing this.
Thirdly, I love it when people like you just lump me in with conservatives. Could it just be that I don't like how Keith Olbermann conducts himself and maybe, just maybe, it has nothing to do with party affiliation? Is that how it works? You just label people as conservatives when they disagree with you?
Finally, since you're constantly ignoring more recent and relevant topics I thought I'd try something different. And when you don't ignore it you're dead wrong. For an example of this, please see your recent arguments with Johnny Dollar on Bill O'Reilly's coverage of Haiti.
Oh wait, that was like a week ago. I guess that's not relevant anymore.
Dude, you really suck at this.
"You can't do it, because each story has a source that provides the basis for his claim."
Where's the source that states Bill Simmons is flooding the MLB blog with troll comments?
By the way, I didn't know it was a fact that Carrie Prejean used to be a man named Harry.
I didn't know it was a fact that conservatives of color are self loathing individuals.
I didn't know it was a fact that Michelle Malkin was literally a "mashed up mat bag with lipstick".
Please provide me with the evidence of these claims because it's clear I'm missing something.
Carlos Dude - I'm so glad I'm not you right now....
Ass, meet hand....
That's what I thought.
MKDAWUSS, you got beat like the dick on a 15-year-old who just found his first porn mag.
Oh, and if you're gonna chastise me for using such vulgar language, I refer you to this:
http://storyballoon.org/videos/keith-olbermann-on-lt-gov-andre-bauer/
Please, defend that Olbermann comment too.
"When ESPN bosses are writing me for helping them about somebody they claim has now lapped Tony and myself, I am left to conclude only that if Mr. Simmons does leave ESPN, it may not be entirely of his own choosing."
From KO at hos BB blog.
Haven't I heard similiar things from him in the past. He's always in the know on the QT then he always brags about having been in the know on the QT.
I guess it is part and parcel of his habit of always humbly claiming to have been very personally close, complete with charming anecdotes, with the famous only after they died. Tim Russert and Tony Snow come to mind first.
Was Keith referring to Tony Kornheiser when he brought up "Tony and myself"?
It really freaking bothers me that I have to take the side of Bill freaking Simmons of all people, because of goddamned Olby.
MKDAWUSS, if anyone here has been "OLBEROWNED" it is YOU. He has you completely under his spell and you are either totally oblivious or in utter denial...and it becomes increasingly obvious with every rebuttal you ignore....
ignore....

"Show me one story (on Countdown, DK, or MLB) where makes an unsubstantiated claim with no source to back it up. You can't do it, because each story has a source that provides the basis for his claim."
Keith versus Twitter
This is one of the more humurous examples of Keith making an unsubstantiated claim with no source to back it up. Or is there a source that you can show us MKDAWUSS?
Also did Olbermann ever admit his mistake on his show and apologize? Maybe I should pull an Olbermann and say he didn't apologize without proof and then accuse anyone who disagrees with me of being a neo-fascist.

Link didn't work last time.
P.S. MKDAWUSS, do the people who own the accounts of the pictures you are linking know what you are doing or are you stealing their bandwidth?
I know that we don't want to have long entries from the authors of this blog, but there were so many other gems from the extended Olbermann attack on Simmons that they deserve mention.
Gratuitous mention of the Affleck SNL skit? CHECK!
""Having made his point 50% of his words ago, Mr. Simmons still continues. As usual:
I feel bad about saying Olbermann lives alone. I forgot about his cats.
3:30 PM Mar 5th via UberTwitter
Mr. Simmons apparently uses, for factual research, old parody sketches from "Saturday Night Live." I'm not surprised. That was Ben Affleck. Thanks for playing.""
An over exaggerated plug for his failed career as a sportscaster? CHECK!
"This assumes that Mr. Simmons' career now is where mine was twelve years ago (anchoring SportsCenter, then my own MSNBC political show, anchoring NBC Weekend Nightly News, writing a best-selling sports book, etc). In fact, this assumes that this is Mr. Simmons' career, which is remarkable."
A completely unverifiable smear regarding the "failed" career of a peer who is actually infinitely more popular than Edward R. Olbermann? CHECK!
"I am surprised, however, to be able to shed some light on something that has been a prominent topic of late around the internet: the prospect that Mr. Simmons is leaving ESPN. Admittedly I am something of an authority on this process. Nonetheless, I was stunned to receive several emails from some of Mr. Simmons' bosses there, thanking me for pointing out the absurdity of, and the embarrassment to ESPN provided by, the Woods/Ali comparison."
It amazes me how much this jerk keeps on putting his foot in his mouth. If he had done any research on Mr. Simmons, he would know that ESPN had been begging him to be an on-air personality for SportsCenter and PTI for years. Unlike Bath Tub Boy, Simmons didn't feel like getting into the ego driven field of live anchors, so instead he does weekly podcasts with occasional appearances on 60 Minutes style sports investigations.
Also, perhaps Bath Tub Boy would like to explain his claim that ESPN is thinking of dumping Simmon's even though any new update to his blog is immediately bumped to the lead story on the main website? Seems like an odd editorial decision to constantly feature and plug a writer when the vast majority of decision makers at ESPN hate him. Then again, Edward R. Olbermann seems to have a skewed viewpoint on what being successful means. Apparently being banned from company owned property makes him a sports God, but having the most popular blog on the most popular sports affiliated website makes Simmons a talentless hack.
Also, Simmon's best selling sports book apparently has nothing on Olbermann's own best selling sports book. Just how superior is Mr. Olbermann's best selling sports book? Let's take a look at the Amazon.com book ratings.
The Big Show by Keith Olbermann: Sales rank 533,905
The Book of Basketball by Bill Simmons: Sales Rank 659
So yeah, it looks like Simmons has no authority to write opinion sports columns when compared to the massively popular Keith Olbermann. Hey Keith, how come you aren't on ESPN anymore if you were so great? Patrick, Scott, Berman, Buccigross and Conn have all been there for 15+ years? Perhaps when Countdown gets canceled soon you can fall back on your critically acclaimed talents as God of the sports universe.
In regards to Olbermann's claim that there has been a substantial amount of web chatter regarding ESPN ditching Simmons, a google and yahoo search finds absolutely no reference to this. If anything, all of the articles I found from various media outlets talk about the leverage that Simmons has due to him authoring 2 best sellers and having 1.1 million followers on Twitter.
http://thebiglead.com/index.php/2010/03/02/making-the-case-that-bill-simmons-could-leave-espn-when-his-contract-expires-this-year/
I will give Olbermann credit here though. He knows that he is so hated by ESPN that the executives know they cannot reference his name or likeness in any way possible. Therefore, it's extremely unlikely they will bother refuting his latest accusation that they are contemplating cutting Simmons from their lineup. With ESPN being the only credible factual reference in this feud, Olbermann gets free range to snipe away with all his normal lies and smears with little possibility of being confronted. This jerk has mastered the art of smearing people without dealing with the consequences.
"The Big Show" was co-written by Keith and his buddy Dan Patrick. Back in 1997 and '98, I couldn't get enough of the book and audiobook and was a huge OlbyFan. Looking back, I don't know what I was thinking. I plan on selling the book on eBay.
Whenever I think about the future career arc of Olbermann, I can't help but compare him to Craig Kilborn. Another "critically acclaimed" sportscaster who moved on to greener pastures (the Daily Show and the Late Late Show), only to have his demanding personality come back to bite him. Much like Olbermann, I have heard that many of his producers and guests on his shows found him difficult to work with.
So what exactly has Kilborn been up to? Nobody really knows, he claims he voluntarily resigned fro the Late Late Show even though there were leaked statements from executives which counter that portrayal. Sure, he has made a couple of oddball appearances in movies, but he has slowly drifted away from the public eye. With his latest tirade against Simmons, can anybody really think a job Edward R. Olbermann will be able to hold after MSBNC declines to renew his contract? He has no friends left from his days as a sportscaster, and lord knows how low he will go in the next couple of weeks at MSNBC. He takes all legitimate criticism against him as personal attack which cannot be tolerated, and shows a propensity cover up lies with more lies when the truth doesn't suit his worldview. What employer outside the delusional liberal left will want to employ him?
MKDAWUSS I'm disappointed. I thought you were going to give us all the truth and facts about Keith Olbermann?
It's blatantly obvious you have no idea what you're doing. MikeH is a coward too but at least he didn't step in it night in and night out. When you're not involved in "hit and run" attacks you're contradicting yourself, admitting you're wrong or just proving our points. You really need to take a debate class.
Memo to the Olbermann apologists who browse this site: Get a hold of MKDAWUSS and tell him to stop posting here. Tell him it's for the best because every time he posts he's making things worse for the Champion.
Excellent recall, ph, of the Olby twitter meltdown. For those who don't recall, KO blasted a supposedly fake twitter account and tried to tie it to Fox News. Turns out the 'fake' account wasn't so fake...it was set up by MSNBC! (KO admitted that he gave up trying to 'figure out' twitter, because everyone knows it's a horribly complex, confusing, tricky, intricate doodad that will never get any traction.) All of Olby's smears, lies, and maniacal paranoia are detailed here:

Mike, don't be surpriseed if any potential buyers don't want to charge YOU for taking it off your hands. :)
MKDAWUSSY wrote "Show me one story (on Countdown, DK, or MLB) where (Keith) makes an unsubstantiated claim with no source to back it up."
From Countdown, my personal favorite is Keith's "Breaking News" that John McCain was having an affair with a staffer... during the Presidential campaign, no less. What a hoot.
PS Keith never apologized for being completely and utterly wrong.
I'm enjoying this thread while it lasts... The quotes are from Fat Ass...
"more than six months after he was first hospitalized"
Do you think you'll ever have the time to man up, like you so often demand of those you trash nightly on your "news" hour, and address the tea baggers? Get it Keith, tea baggers, like the act of dipping ur sack on some dudes nose, like so many of your gay supporters do. You support tea bagging don't you Keith. Its still funny, like Faux News, because faux instead of Fox just works on sooooo many levels. Ya think Edward Murrow would really be proud?
"Make a fool of yourself comparing..."
Yeah, thank God you've never done that. Hey Keith, what's that on your sisters face? Same thing as on Paris Hilton's? I'd ask if it was ever on Katie the "journalist \ broadcaster's" face but if we've learned anything from Karmabites, its unlikely.
"This assumes that Mr. Simmons' career now is where mine was twelve years ago (anchoring SportsCenter,"
Where you were known as an unhinged pompous thin skinned ***** whose not even half as clever or smart as he "knows" he is, who to this day isn't allowed back on ESPN HQ's. Let me guess Keith, their all Republicans right?
"then my own MSNBC political show"
Yeah, how'd that work out for ya? Oh, right. So, when do you think you'll ever refute John Gibson and his Bathtub Boy story.
"anchoring NBC Weekend Nightly News"
Yeah, by the by, weren't you supposed to have been delivering a nightly or weekly commentary or something similar recently? Like around 07 when your contract was extended and you made more money while NBC employees were being laid off, it was said you were going to have a bigger presence on NBC News, NBC in general, etc? Was football really the only natural fit for someone of your intellectual caliber and journalistic integrity? Football, and your "news" hour on the network that fights for a distant second place is really the only good use for you?
"writing a best-selling sports book"
Well I guess that can't be denied, but how's The Worst Persons in the World book doing? Oh, right. How bout that last one you wrote? Oh, right.
"Mr. Simmons apparently uses, for factual research, old parody sketches from "Saturday Night Live."
Yeah Keith, you've got him there. Crazy man. But remember when you brought on one of the cue cards with well wishes from Afleck saying that he indeed didn't write the skit, cause you guys are just such great friends, like so many others of yours both dead and alive.
That's up there with bringing your Cow School degree to prove Ann "the man" Coulter wrong. Ann is beneath you right, so its kinda silly to have to go to ALL that trouble right? By the way Keith, are you an anti trans-gender piece of crap?
"Nonetheless, I was stunned to receive several emails from some of Mr. Simmons' bosses there, thanking me for pointing out the absurdity of, and the embarrassment to ESPN provided by, the Woods/Ali comparison."
Wow, just wow. The bosses who either fired you back then, hated your guts, or who work with people with whom you insulted, belittled, controlled, etc, actually emailed you to thank you for this. Simmons doesn't have any other detractors they could have emailed? Only you?
One part of me wants you to actually prove this, but you've never lied, exaggerated, obfuscated, stretched the truth, or any of the such, so no Keith, no need to prove this. We all believe you because you said so.
Can't wait to see you on the air soon, but def keep up with those suit vests, I mean geeze man, can you blame Katy from abandoning ship? Literally?

So does anyone thing Needledick is actually in NY?? I have a theory he's actually hanging out at spring training. Again.. if daddy is sitting in God's waiting room... what the fuck are you doing arguing with someone at ESPN... I would think you would seek all the good karma that the world can bring to help your father... what a frickin waste...
I like how KO sets the BAR so high for everyone else. Oh ya Bill'o gets 3.5 million people a night I get 900 K, but some how the 3.5 is not enough but my 900k is just great!
Sarah Palin sells millions of books and he laughs it off saying she is giving them away for almost nothing, but Wolfman sells what couple thousand copies of his latest book, and you think it was sitting top of the NY best sellers list for weeks!
Can someone count the days he has actually worked in 2010 so far, he must be bored no more Bush bashing, and Palin jokews are falling flat!
I guesss MSNBC is being genious with its time off, now Mandow is somewhere else, OMG!
MKDAWUSS, where are you?
Oh that's right! You're hiding until Johnny Dollar creates a new post so you can pretend you didn't get your ass handed to you.
Once again, MKDAWUSS proves how much of a coward he is. You're really doing Olbermann a service.
Sigh, yet another well reasoned well punctuated response from one of Olb's finest...
“Rage. When Olbermann left ESPN, "he didn't burn bridges here -- he napalmed them," as one male colleague described it. And when co-anchor Suzy Kolber attracted attention for her stylish sports reporting, a jealous Olbermann attacked her with such venom that she simply sat down and cried.”
That’s from article about the tin hats favorite “journalist.”
“Again you only attack KO personally with bold face lies at that and you show you care zip about truth”
Tell me where I lied. Time and again you tin hats defend this lunatic because he feeds you tripe but ya’ll can just never find the time to refute anything one of his critiques says. I’ve given plenty of examples, quoted him plenty of times, yet you just say I’m wrong because I’m wrong.
I said he has HUGE insecurity issues, paper thin skin, can’t take criticism. He in his own mea culpa admitted as much. He brought on his COLLEGE DEGREE for crying out loud to prove Ann “the man” Coulter wrong. He brought on a SIGNED CUE CARD form SNL to prove to everyone he was cool with the skit they did on him. He had a stage hand come on LIVE to PULL ON HIS HAIR for God sakes to prove to Mark Levine that he wasn’t bald.
If those people are such hate mongering liars who only seek to make money from positions they really don’t hold, and Olbs is a truth telling highly intelligent ethical \ objective journalist, why does he join those bottom feeders on their level?
“KO knows more a honesty and integrity than you”
Well I’ve never made one of my female coworkers cry because I was better than her. I never made fun of a celebrity for having semen on her face. I never had a perverted homosexual on my show make fun of a beautiful woman because I disagree with a position she shares with Obama, Kerry, Clinton, etc. I never made fun of a rivals children as he did with Bill-O.
I’ve never accused a rival of murder without any proof, just to incite and gain ratings. I’ve never exaggerated the size of my ratings to so desperately eek out any kind of victor over someone I hold in low regards. I’ve never called myself a journalist when I don’t have a degree in journalism or broadcasting. I’ve never called my full hour of opinions a “news” hour. I’ve never distorted the truth to gain fame, trash others, make more money, etc.
If that’s what you consider integrity and honesty, then good luck. And by the way, try periods and comas occasionally, they work wonders you know.
Obie is a train wreck. Perhaps his constant lashing out is some perverse "call for help". Can't his friends at MsNBC stage an intervention? I'm sure that Maddow is physically stronger; she could restrain him while Ed Schultz sat on him and Chrissy tickled him into submission. Do they make straightjacks in Keith's "enormous" size?
Someone step in before Obie hurts himself or the people who work with him!
I think his LOA is laughable. We haven't even got an UPDATE abot his old man..HOW RUDE of HIM! (=
This is the most important issue for the PRes and he is MIA..and we are stuck with perpahs the only peson in the world that could give KO a run for him money as the "most insane" persoanlity on cable TV, Larry the Loon!
KO don't Obama down he needs you to set everyone straight!!
Hey nomorekeith, what a great point! How come he has time to rip Bill Simmons but doesn't have time to tell us how his father is?
I mean it, this is a serious point. Two giant rants about his father's health and now nothing.
You know if this is a sham (and I'm not saying it is nor do I believe it is) he's not doing a very good job of selling it. All he has to do is call his pal "Judge" David Shuster and he can Tweet the updates. That is if Shuster got his Tweeting privileges back.
MKDAWUSS, do you have an explanation for this? Oh that's right, you're hiding under your desk like the coward you are until you can avoid all the Olbermann lies we posted on Monday night.

Maybe nothing's changed. I'm sure he'll post updates about his father as soon as there is one.

... what?

I'm talking to you right now, and I just provided one possible explanation. Meanwhile, you and your friends continue to cling to this notion that his father's condition is purely a vehicle to drive an agenda and a plausible spin to cover some PR nightmare.
I will say this: When KO gets back to being on Countdown, watch out - he's going to be running all 24 cylinders at 110%
Is that all you have to respond to MKDAWUSS or do you concede everything else that's been said about KO?

By the way, no one is worried.
Time to start ignoring MK, it's clear he has no intention of backing up his arguments or actually responding to any questions we pose to him. If he doesn't want to play ball, we don't need to waste our time attempting to grab his attention or point out the logical fallacies in his posts. Nothing to see here people, just another Olby loon who has to selectively argue specific points to not make Edward R. Olbermann look like the lying scumbag he is.
Note how this site will also not take down MK's comments due to political differences, unlike Bath Tub Boy, who has to purge his various blogs on a daily basis to make sure the truth about him doesn't come out.

Only problem he's a like a Prius..uncontrollable with no way to stop him until he runs down some poor innocent victim. New Murrow indeed.
MKDAWUSS I read your most recent post (yawn) but we're still waiting for you to respond to all the lies we posted about Olbermann Monday night. You have proven once and for all to all of us here you are a coward.
HoneySmacks I would love to ignore MKDACOWARD, I really would. But I am dying to find someone who can defend Keith Olbermann.
Someone who can tell me it's ok to call a woman a "mashed up meat bag with lipstick".
Someone who can tell me it's ok to call the troops "cold blooded killers".
Someone who can tell me it's ok to issue ridiculous claims without evidence.
Someone who can tell me it's ok to insult those you disagree with solely because they disagree with you.
Someone who can tell me it's ok to be a massive hypocrite.
To be honest MKDACOWARD has become the best I can find at defending Olbermann, which isn't saying much.
