"their own prestige at stake"?

Johnny, that train left the station a long time ago. Everyone knows that NBC News is now a arm for the DNC.

"Everyone knows that NBC News is now a arm for the DNC."

And everyone knows that FOX News has been an arm for the RNC.

Divert? Change the subject? Deflect? Tu Quoque?

Somebody's been shopping at Cheap Rhetorical Fallacies 'R' Us.

Wussy, of course you can show proof of your statement? You can show us where FNC is tilted to the right in their hard news programing. Like MSNBC is in their hard news programing.

OK, six minutes away from Big Ed Schultz. Somebody watch and see if he corrects Howard Dean's lie!

MKDAWUSS, do you have anything to say about Howard Dean's little fib?

I didn't think so.

Johnny........MSNBC?????? Prestige????? Come now you jest!

"And everyone knows that FOX News has been an arm for the RNC."

Geraldo? An arm for the RNC? Who knew?

BOR?

Shep Smith?

Judge Nap?

Bill Hemmer?

I'm sure the folks on this thread could list a few more names.

...and Juan Williams. He is definitely a spokesman for the RNC, isn't he Wuss?

In addition Fox regulars Greta Van Susteren, Mara Liasson, Fox contributors Alan Colmes, Lanny Davis, Susan Estrich, Mort Knodracke, Kirsten Powers, Dick Morris all liberals.

Shock of shocks, the person who had Dean gasping for air trying to answer, Chris Wallace is a liberal. When will the doofusses admit that Fox News has on air people of many political stripes that covers both sides of the story? Never. Might it seem like Fox only covers one side of the story? Of course, since no other news outlet does what they do.

I've been out of the loop for the past few days, so could I ask someone to bring me up to snuff on the blunder that Howard Dean made in the Chris Wallace interview on Fox and Deans interview with Ed Schultz?

When the lies are double decker
There's no need for a fact checker
Ed Schultz and Howard Dean
Biggest dip sh!ts I've seen
They're like a tag-team truth wrecker

Hey Katy ... You're limmericks are good. I've really enjoyed the last few. Keep it up.

All those liberals you mentioned seem to have a knack to spreading conservative viewpoints...

A nice link for all the Fox haters out there. This Sherrod thing is officially pissing me off. Why?

MSNBC has been in an uproar for days now over a false accusation of racism. For anybody who agrees, they should take a few minutes and watch that failing channel, no matter how hard it is to do. It's close to hourly that someone on MSNBC refers to someone else as a racist, not only republicans, but entire movements of voters, ie. the Tea Party.

Second, why does she get a pass because this happened twenty years ago? Senator Bryd (from my home state by the way), got the same pass, but Strom Thurmond never did, and neither did Sen. Lott for saying privately that he should have been the President. Those two, Bush, Cheney, and any other major Republicans are branded racists for life, simply because of their party affiliation, and some very loosely pieced together stories (excluding Thurmond, who was an avid supporter of segregation. Clinton at Byrd's funeral suggested that Bryd joined the KKK for reasons needed to get elected, just so he could help WV).

If this gal was a white woman, talking about ignoring the request for help, simply because they were black, I don't care when it happened, or even if it was a in a different life, she would be humiliated backwards and forwards by MSNBC and the Democrat party. Do you think Obama would have apologized if Sarah Palin made a comment like that and it was taken out of context?

Bottom line, I've watched the whole video, and yes, it was clearly taken out of context, but this Shirley Sherrod still appears to have some question marks about her, end of story.

What Howard Dean is doing is standard Liberal policy. These people are so full of themselves, that he couldn't resist to say what he said on Fox yet again on another channel. He can't be that stupid to think that no one would notice.

And, let me ask, where are the apologies from Jesse Jackson, Sharpton, the NAACP, the Black Panthers to those Duke boys they humiliated for allegedly raping that black stripper in Durham? Talk about false accusations and stirring a shit storm of a race controversy. Those guys invented it, and how they are demanding Fox News and Breitbart be jailed?

Please...

A few more interesting details about shirley sherrod have emerged. Her and her husband have been the leaders of some sort of lawsuit against the usda concerning unfair treatment of black farmers. apparrently she and her husband owned some acreage(unknown if they actually farmed them) and started an organization(which other black americans joined in large numbers) to sue the usda. it appears that the usda has settled with them recently. the numbers are in the billions, she and her husband each recieved large settlements(i dont know the exact numbers--available online) but in additon to the settlement--her and her husband received 150 k each for "pain and suffering" (far more than any real farmer received), this has become a "cause celebre" in the black community in the south, and it seems any black with any land is signing up to get a piece of the settlement--with scant attention as to the legitimacy of the claims as the usda is trying to put this behind them and are throwing huge sums at the case. CAN YOU SAY "REPARATIONS"? the name of the case is pigford vs vilsack georgia this occured about the time she got her position with the usda! hows that for a coincidence?

Howard Dean, a doctor turned quack,
an empty shell, a mind gone slack.
He rolled his sleeves and let out a yell,
and blew his candidacy all to hell!!

Snake, where did you find this information? This supports my suspicious character theory of one Ms. Shirley Sherrod. But, I won't repeat it until I have a source...

Thanks, by the way...

I knew Sherrod was a bigot and a race hustler from the very beginning. But you guys don't realize - the truth doesn't matter to media liberals. They know if some white woman said the exact same thing Sherrod did, it would have been treated very differently. But they don't really care what the truth is. They have no personal standards. So what they are "outraged" about today may not matter at all tommorow. It just depends what benefit they can get out of it in their push to stay in power and turn the country into a socialist / communist state. Do you think if they ever got total control, they wouldn't hesitate to throw you in a concentration camp and seize all of your property, then justify it in the name of "social justice"? They're already talking openly about "shutting down" Fox News and conservative bloggers. Civil Rights don't matter, the Constitution doesn't matter, the truth doesn't matter. All that matters to them is their hate and their need to destroy who they perceive as their enemies. And Olbermoron is at the top of the list.

ryder---- i dont recall the exact route i took to find this out--(i read it much earlier in the day) however if you just google (pigford vs vilsack" it should take you to the case--i beleive the washington examiner has something to do with the story--hope this helps!

Long time visitor, first time commenter. The only thing I've missed about "the idiot" being on staycation is the slow down of comments here...but that's cool, everyone needs a break from the idiocy known os OlbyLogic. Even with him on vacation, we can always turn to the blockhead Barney Rubble look-alike Ed Schultz for even more lunacy. I thinks Barney just watches Fox News and then spouts the opposite.
btw- Katy Turic's limericks are my favorite thing about the site and it was MKDUMBASS that prompted me to sign up. He honestly thinks that he's holding his own here, and probably brags to his peeps about his endeavors. I know his type, hit him as hard as you want, he'll just change the topic or playing field. Is he the best the opposition has to offer?

@T.Jeff...yes.

Tom...yes he is. Just stop by the Daily Kooks and read some of their propaganda to know how he thinks.

P.S. If you do, you will need a vomit bag handy and a shower afterwards.

Just watched the video...par for the course for MSNBC. No retractions, no apologies and more importantly...no integrity.

I don't know if any of you saw this story...http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2010/07/30/chris-matthews-opinion-sherrods-suit-against-breitbart-changes-two-hours

Seems Matthews had a quick change of heart about the Sherrod lawsuit. After calling out Howard Dean about the LIE he told about Fox News airing the Sherrod tape before her firing (which Fox has overwhelming proved to be a lie) Matthews did a 180 from his 5pm broadcast and for some reason, rather than air that segment as part of the normal 7 p.m. rerun, MSNBC did a live broadcast bringing Politico's Ken Vogel in to discuss the matter with Matthews and original guest Salon's Joan Walsh.

What resulted was a completely different presentation than what aired just two hours prior with Matthews far more critical of Breitbart than he previously was and far more supportive of the merits of Sherrod's case.

Olby chimed in from his stayvaction with this beauty:

RT @themick1962 Progs JouroList integrity: MSNBC retapes Matthews Hardball /More genius! Fox retapes, edits, to falsify; we do, to correct.

Hmmm...wonder how Olby feels about Dean's flat out LIE about Fox News? I didn't see a correction from MSNBC or Fat Ed? Did you?

"THE LAST WORD WITH LAWRENCE O'DONNELL" PREMIERES MONDAY, SEPT. 27, 10
PM ET

LOS ANGELES - July 30, 2010 - "The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell"
will premiere Monday, Sept. 27 on MSNBC, 10-11 p.m. ET. MSNBC
President Phil Griffin announced the premiere date and title of the
program this afternoon at the Television Critics Association session
in Los Angeles. "The Last Word" will reach back into O'Donnell's
extraordinary background in politics, entertainment and news,
providing the last word on the biggest issues and most compelling
stories of the day.

"Lawrence is one of the rare hosts in cable news who has been in the
room when policy is created. His background is an amazing asset to our
primetime lineup, and I can't wait for it to debut," said Griffin.

O'Donnell has been a MSNBC political analyst since the network's
launch in 1996 and has been the regular guest host for "Countdown with
Keith Olbermann." He has also guest hosted for "Hardball with Chris
Matthews," "The Ed Show" and "The Rachel Maddow Show."

O'Donnell was an Emmy Award-winning executive producer and writer for
the NBC series "The West Wing" and was creator and executive producer
of the NBC series "Mister Sterling."

From 1989 through 1992, O'Donnell served as Senior Advisor to Senator
Daniel Patrick Moynihan. In 1992, he was the Chief of Staff to the
Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works. From 1993
through 1995 he was the Chief of Staff of the Senate Finance
Committee. He first began working with Sen. Moynihan as Director of
Communications in the Senator's 1988 re-election campaign.

A writer prior to entering politics and government, O'Donnell
published the book Deadly Force (1983), which was adapted as a CBS
movie in 1986. He has written essays and articles for several
publications, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los
Angeles Times, New York, People, Spy and Boston Magazine. O'Donnell
has also appeared on NBC News' "Today," "Good Morning America,"
"Nightline," "Charlie Rose" and several other programs. Suffolk
University awarded O'Donnell an honorary degree, Doctor of Humane
Letters, in 2001.

All interesting events since Bathtub Boy took his sabbitical from TV, but who is making the rounds at Yankee Stadium, Cooperstown and of course, his newly found second home, Twitter.

First off Matthews sucks, for backpeddling on his 5pm show then changing his tune at 8, and bring on that catcher mitted tilted headed face Joan "absolutely" Walsh.

Did anyone catch Hannity basically imasculating Congressman Weiner on his show? You need to hear this. I'll bet anything that Olbermann puts him on next week and or has Hannity as worst person in the world.

They need to take Weiner and Grayson out hunting with Dick Cheney. Thunderdome baby, Three men enter, one man leaves.

here's the Hannity link:

http://breitbart.tv/hannity-confronts-congressman-weiner/

Someone has to say it. What a raging Weiner. I mean he was throbbing. But he's still small.

THANK YOU EVERYBODY, I'M HERE ALL WEEK! TRY THE FISH!!

Musician and songwriter Seth Swirsky was on "Red Eye" last night. Swirsky's hobby is collecting baseball memorabilia. Among the memorabilia he won was the ball that went through Bill Buckner's legs in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series. The underbidder for that ball was...the discredited baseball card collector himself, Keith Olbermann.

Just signed up for a Twiiter account also, just to try to discuss/debate/harrass/correct/and occasionally insult "the idiot". I called him on MSNBC's intentional cropped video of the alleged racist at a AZ rally carrying a rifle. You remember...the Black racist. He claims that -

"somebody screwed up which is why somebody else got on the air & said "we screwed up" - next time Fox does that will be 1st".

Did MSNBC ever apologize for using a cropped video of a gun carrying Black man as a lead-in to a discussion about racists elements at Tea Parties? I never saw a correction and I watch MSLSD a lot...keep your enemies closer. He started dancing when I asked him to point out when this happened and by who. He made a condescending remark about my inability to use a search engine and expects me to pour over months of transcripts to find something that I don't think exists. In the spirit of honest discussion, he could just tell me who and when to settle the argument.
Was this edited video ever corrected by MSNBC?? If not, "the idiot" is again knowingly lying. If it was, I will apologize (as I throw up a little) and move on to the next lie.

This is July 31 2010 and the 3rd day of Tom Jefferson's quest to be named a "Worst Person in the World" Good night and wish me luck.

Funny, but I saw O'Reilly admit he "screwed up" over the Sherrod tape just the other day.

Oh, and there was the time Hannity said they screwed up using the wrong Tea Party rally footage after the Daily Show called him on it.

I'm really tired of this Liberal Fox News Derangement that's out there. They need this straw man conservative media out there so they can discredit any attempt to question their BS. But they clearly do not watch Fox News in any substantive way. It's so pathetic. Not just pathetic in their complete lack of comprehension on the topic, but pathetic to the extent this line of thinking has permeated our society. It's truly not a good sign for us.

Now KO's latest thing is posting a Politico story about how FoxNews.com posted a Sherrod story an hour before her resignation was announced, as if that somehow proves Howard Dean correct. Even though from all accounts the story was mild, and indicated attempts were being made to contact the parties involved. And that it was the website and it was posted and nothing was done with it and none of the Fox News shows actually did anything with it until after she resigned.

But nope, anything KO and the libs can cram into their narrow context will be happily be adopted. And why does Fox News have to become the story in defending itself so much. Because KO and the libs keep lying about it!

Enough is enough.

It's like Bush derangement syndrome. Apparently George W. Bush was so clever (despite how they say he's a moron) that he was able to falsify all these intelligence documents to fool the Democrats in Congress to approve an invasion of Iraq, and then didn't even bother to falsify the WMD evidence against Saddam. In fact, what did he do? He was fully forthright with the American people that there were no WMD. So typical of Libs, they focus on one action that they then distort the truth about in order to fit their agenda, while ignoring everything else that makes their claims completely bogus.

Again, it's sad that so many Americans can fall for this crap.

Tom...When Olby first got on Twitter I sent him a tweet (can't remember exactly what I said...something about lying or hypocrisy), he replied with an insult then banned me. So don't be surprised if you are banned too. He uses his Twitter account just like his show...no dissenting opinions (you get banned) or no Republicans/Conservatives (hurls insults or juvenile smears). The coward doesn't have balls to debate anyone and hides behind the excuse that his executive producer won't allow it.

I only hope when his ratings sink so low (don't know how much lower they can get) that he will be forced by his bosses to do some debating. I'm sure he could pull 2 million viewers with a debate but then would have to go soak in the tub for the next 3 days after he loses big and his ego takes a huge beating. That's wishful thinking on my part and I don't think it will ever happen because his giant ego is too fragile.

Yeah. He blocked me from his Twitter for some mild stuff.

He responds by insulting you, then blocking. It's quite silly. Be sure not to misspell anything, because he jumps all over stuff like that. The word "petulant" comes to mind when talking about Keith.

When Olby comes back from his two week soak (minus any time spent pontificating on Mrs. Sherrod), he's going to blow a gasket.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2010/senate/ky/kentucky_senate_paul_vs_conway-1148.html

In two polls, Rand Paul (who I am no fan of, but going to vote for anyway) is ahead of Ky Attny. General Jack Conway by 8 points. All of olby's hard work smearing him and it's done no good. Guess we have another Olbermann Double Down to look forward to.

He must have blocked my last tweet because there's no way his narcissism would let me have the last word. I wasn't being confrontational or insulting, just asking questions. He knew he was in over his big fat head. That man is an idiot.

I used to think the 2 greatest things in life were Freedom and Liberty. Now the 2 greatest things are November 2, 2010 and Comcast. This will be the year that 'The Idiot" finally cracks.

The quest to be a worst person continues.

Olby is mentioned in this week's Fox Haters' Week in Review.

LOL! More good news for Olbermoron - Fox News moved to front row of White House briefing room after Helen Thomas' departure: http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/112079-fox-news-to-move-to-front-row-briefing-room-seat

Ed Schultz is a idiot. But this time he's a useful idiot for us. It seems that Eddie isn't going to vote in the Mid-term. Here's the article from Newsmax.

While Democrats like Nancy Pelosi professed not to disturbed by their gloomy electoral prospects, ABC's Christiane Amanpour could have really riled her up by noting Ed Schultz proclaimed on his radio show Friday that he's boycotting the midterm elections unless someone extends unemployment benefits past 99 weeks. Democrats are apparently worthless and weak while the Republicans "say yes to death" by insisting on a pay-go policy. Radio Equalizer has the particulars. Schultz said:
And I'm announcing today, I'm not going to vote in the midterms. I'm not going to do it. You can say it's un-American. No, it's rather revolutionary is what it is. I'm at that point. I'm checking out.

I'm checking out of the Democrats because they are proving to me that they don't know how to handle these big babies over on the right that say no. You know what you do? You get in the driver's seat, you hit the throttle, and you run over 'em.
This violent imagery must come with the JournoList disclaimer: all our liberal death-wish talk is merely figurative. There's more in this Schultz's extend-unemployment-assistance-forever-for-the-"99ers" rant. He explicitly sets up the vote as -- You send me taxpayer money, I vote for you -- money for votes, pure and simple:
I will ask the 99ers to not vote for the Democrat unless they deliver the mail. This is what it's come to. This is what we have to do.
I believe this is really an important moral issue for this country. I have had enough of the Republicans saying no to everything, and in this case, they're saying yes to death, is what they're doing, in my opinion.
He said to get their attention the 99ers should "form an unemployed coalition and flat out tell the Democrats we're not voting in the midterm." It continued:
If they don't realize the seriousness of this, they don't deserve to be in office. It's that simple. Because they're not serving the people, and they're just taking the problem and passing it along to the next generation.We have got unprecedented unemployment in this country, and the people have to be heard.
To Schultz, the only "people" to be heard are those receiving federal aid, not the people who are paying the taxes going in to Washington. And since when is our employment situation worse than the Great Depression? But the left was probably replaying the "Germans bombed Pearl Harbor" lines from "Animal House." Don't bother with Big Ed's goofball errors, he's on a roll:
This isn't about saving anybody's Congressional ass. This is about saving lives at this point. And if Harry Reid doesn't have the guts to keep the Senate in to move on this issue, in my opinion, he should not be reelected in Nevada.
This is some gratitude Schultz has, after he touted how the Democrats enriched his sons with stimulus dollars.
