I think that is in the running for his greatest Greg-a-logue yet.
O'Donnell has a lot of nerve criticizing O'Reilly for only having people on who agree with him (particularly since he has opposing view points every single night) when he's sitting in Olbermann's time slot.
I scrolled about half way down the Friends of Keith site, starting reading and immediately found a typo. (longerhandle, no space, Charlie Sheen Snappy Answer). What a moron...
"I scrolled about half way down the Friends of Keith site, starting reading and immediately found a typo. (longerhandle, no space, Charlie Sheen Snappy Answer). What a moron..."
I guess in Olbermann's book that makes himself a moron. Because spelling errors are "representative of the level of intellect."
And since MKDAWUSS believes whatever Olbermann tells him, then MKDAWUSS must think Olbermann is a moron.
I left a comment on the new site to see what would happen. It wasn't nasty or disrespectful, just an observation about the site. The comment was posted but said something about "awaiting moderators approval". I checked back an hour later and the comment was removed. So it's the same old story with Olbermann...dissenting opinions will not be tolerated and will be banned into the abyss. It must be nice to live in Keith's little fantasy world where he thinks everyone just loves him to death and takes his every word as gospel.
I'm sure if Olbermann were on the air tonight he'd be gloating about the huge loss O'Reilly took today via the Supreme Court. I guess there is no limit to free speech.
Did Olbermann even mention this? Oh that's right, O'Reilly backing a father against a bunch of assholes who chant "faggot lover" at his son's funeral would ruin the whole perception of O'Reilly Olbermann created for his viewers.
An OlbyLoon Mediaite commenter copied and pasted an attack on Mediaite's Jon Bershad, Mike Tobin, FNC, and the Olbsession. Yes, he went after Mr. Bill yet again. Personal life! Loofah! [Ding!] Things Men Cheat With! Propaganda! [Ding!] Fox apologist! [Ding!]
It serves me right for visiting Mediaite to see how they'd report on the robust debate between O'Reilly and Megyn Kelly. I otherwise wouldn't have known about Olbermoronn's vile screed. I'm going to share tonight's Talking Points Memo. The Westboro haters won today and Krazy Keith Oralmann continues his hate on the 'net. It will undoubtedly carry over onto his Current show.
Who cares? How many people are reading his comments, a couple hundred? He's irrelevant now. He's no more relevant than some anonymous liberal on Daily Kos.
Olby's trying to make some point about Fox News showing union violence B-roll while discussing the concept of union protests, and since O'Reilly was discussing it with a guy in Wisconsin, then obviously they were trying to imply there was violence in Wisconsin. But it was a standard Fox News B-roll that contained footage of union protests in California, so palm trees were in it, which got some Liberals thinking they should complain (probably the idiots at Media Matters started it, but I haven't checked their half-assed site litely). Olbermann's attack was against a guy on Mediaite who said that if you had watched the whole segment in context, you wouldn't be as confused as if you only listened to the liberal spin about it. So then Olby says it would be like if he did a story on O'Reilly and played footage of hookers and stuff with the Things Men Cheat With banner, to imply O'Reilly cheated without saying it, because there's no actual footage of O'Reilly cheating or something.
So Olby says there's no footage of Wisconsin protesters being violent. Fair enough.
Does anybody know if Olby has ever discussed that footage of the union mob cornering the Republican state senator outside the capital? Or the Dem assemblyman who said a Repub assemblywoman was "F-n Dead?"
I mean, is this about the post Tucson civility, or helping unions rip off taxpayers?
Bobby's got FOK summarized well. Listening (or reading) to Olbermann talking about himself is uncharacteristically boring, and reminds me of when Bear Grylls drinks his own piss, it just happens far to often.
Hey guys, I'm just going to say this, considering it's appropriate based on Olbermann's influence of this site, but, well, I'm just going to say it. I watched about fourteen seconds of Wisconsin Union rally footage, and I didn't see any black people.
Where...are they? Olbermann siding with these people, sure doesn't bode well for his reputation, unless of course he knows some black people. After watching so much Countdown (three to four full episodes, and approximately twelve or thirteen segments), Olby rules begin to apply, and based on these simple facts, he is an out and out racist. Possibly a skin head (management level) or a closet Klan leader. Isn't it obvious?
I've only watched a little Countdown, and the evidence is there. This guy wants black people to not be able to vote, or use the same restrooms as white folk. Seriously, I didn't see any black people in about four frames of footage, and this guy is siding with those people? Game, set, and match my friends. We're dealing with a fucking racist...
"Hey guys, I'm just going to say this, considering it's appropriate based on Olbermann's influence of this site, but, well, I'm just going to say it. I watched about fourteen seconds of Wisconsin Union rally footage, and I didn't see any black people."
That would probably be because the latest census said there is minimal African American representation in the state of Wisconsin.
Oh wait, didn't they bus in a few protestors as well? Still white. Either Unions hate black people or Union supporters hate black people. Or something like that.
That would be the logical answer. Of course logic is not the way of Olbermann, nor is it the way of his fans MKDAWUSS and Soper, who are no doubt lurking. Hey Carlos, how come Olbermann hasn't called the Wisconsin Union protests racist on his "news blog" yet?
I know, I know. "You'll have to ask him that. Because he hasn't told me what to say yet."
Perhaps a bit overboard on the satire, but hey, it felt appropriate given the number of times I've been indirectly referred to as a racist because of simple political differences.
Hey Olbermann, this is simple. 96% of African Americans voted for Barrack Obama. If you consider the number of black faces you'll see at a Tea Party rally, less than five percent. That makes sense, to sensible people, who can see past a bullshit agenda. This is so simple to nearly every person in America, hence the reason why this racist argument never caught on. I had to get that out. Sometimes I feel as if we are talking about the dumbest person in media history, I'm fairly certain that's not even debatable.
I'm tired, I run in a wall as fast as I can and hopefully rid myself of the stupidity that comes with mentioning Keith Olbermann's name or associated shows or websites...

This Wisconsin vs. California B-roll thing sounds an awful lot like talking about white racists bringing guns to tea parties while playing a clip of a BLACK tea partier with a gun.
"Either Unions hate black people or Union supporters hate black people"
They don't hate them, they just beat them up if they're in the tea party.
Part of me wishes Olbermann was still around so I could see if he were to follow the liberal talking points and claim that the state of Wisconsin, as well as the United States Government is NOT in financial turmoil. I first saw Maddow making the claim that Wisconsin was just fine in regards to their budget. And last night, I saw a clip of Michael Moore making the claim that not only is Wisconsin in stable economic condition, but that the Federal Government is also in a satisfactory financial situation; that the United States has plenty of money and Republicans are using the debt and deficit as a scare tactic...
We all know, as was previously mentioned in this thread, the readiness of liberals to accuse their counterparts and detractors of racism and bigotry when they skew on agreement, however, did anyone, anywhere, ever imagine that they could go so far, as to characterize a fourteen trillion dollar deficit as a Conservative scare tactic? Dismissing Bush's education, or Cheney's charitable contributions is one thing, but referencing a fourteen trillion dollar deficit as something to pay little attention too is outright madness.
I don't wonder if Olbermann would pay homage to this argument, I know he would. He's THAT, fucking, stupid.
Woke up at 4:20 this morning (NO, NOT FOR WHAT YOU ASSOCIATE 4:20 WITH) and CBS Early Morning news aired Edward R. Murrow's speech aimed to McCarthy. Now call me a nut (YOU'RE A NUT), but is this a not-so-veiled message to Peter King? "HEY, DON'T BASH MUSLIMS OR WE'LL BE ANGRY!!!!!"
Remember, Olby was Muslim Lover #1, even though if Sharia took over, Keith and his buddies would be among the first executed.
Anyway, it's possible David Shuster will be issuing another guilty verdict via Twitter later this afternoon, similar to what he did last time O'Keefe was in the news.
However, don't expect Johnny Dollar to cover it. In case you didn't hear, the former Countdown sub blocked J$ for proving to the world how much of a hack he is.
I'd like to see a screen shot CJ, not because I doubt you, but I'd rather see it posted as often as possible on the net...
I caught this paragraph in particular (referencing the recent WI vote) from the FOK site, it's pure gold:
"And further, when you accomplish all this by parliamentary trick – after your national party has spent two years and more decrying Congressional reconciliation – when you deny the minority the right to participate in the outcome whether by compromise or protest, you cut through the cacophony of political-speak in this country and you transmit your sneering indifference towards democracy to ordinary citizens who do not normally pay attention."
Let's review, shall we?
"Parliamentary trick?" You mean like abandoning the parliamentary process all together; the grown up version of an "I didn't get picked first, so I'm not playing" tantrum?
"After the Republican party has spent two years decrying reconciliation?" Which was shortly after your party decried it, but in reference to my previous statement, at least we participated. Obamacare? Didn't have the Nation's support, or enough votes to pass the proper legislation, how about a direct analogy? Can't do that? That's right, because they you might as well get them to print you a tee shirt with, "Hypocrite" on it. (Merely referencing a quote from this moron makes me feel like I never graduated high school).
"Deny the minority the right to participate?" Olbermann, seriously, have you even been caught up on what's happening in Wisconsin? No one has been able to participate in the legislative process (those involving budgetary issues) because the Democrats skipped the state, their jobs, and the constituents that never voted for them in last November's election...
Sneering indifference to Democracy? Ha, this is too easy. When you're elected to participate in state government, you're supposed to participate in state government, it's called...Democracy.
American's not paying attention? You'll have to explain, not all people understand this as well as you do...
Me too Tony. I made a comment to some of my friends at lunch this afternoon that it would be the instant reaction of the left to compare this to Katrina, in some way or another, in a manner that directly insults Republicans or Conservatives (Tea Party may be included, that's how stupid they are). I'm fairly confident Democrats will be referencing the fictitious screw ups from the Bush Administration well into our dying days (and I'm 27).
Watch for them to gush over Obama's compassion towards those affected by these events...
I think that is in the running for his greatest Greg-a-logue yet.
O'Donnell has a lot of nerve criticizing O'Reilly for only having people on who agree with him (particularly since he has opposing view points every single night) when he's sitting in Olbermann's time slot.
Bash O'Reilly? Fine, crazy larry.
Bash Beck? Fine, Crazy larry.
BUT GO AFRER THE NOTORIOUS PAB!!!!! You're playing with fire! And you're going to get burned.
FOK News Channel website is up
http://foknewschannel.com/
I scrolled about half way down the Friends of Keith site, starting reading and immediately found a typo. (longerhandle, no space, Charlie Sheen Snappy Answer). What a moron...
The FOK News Channel. Very creative Olbermann.
Over five hundred comments on three posts and not a one negative comment. Looks like business as usual.
Oh, and for those people who did post, try mixing up your responses. Because from here it looks like the same person using 50 different accounts.
"I scrolled about half way down the Friends of Keith site, starting reading and immediately found a typo. (longerhandle, no space, Charlie Sheen Snappy Answer). What a moron..."
I guess in Olbermann's book that makes himself a moron. Because spelling errors are "representative of the level of intellect."
And since MKDAWUSS believes whatever Olbermann tells him, then MKDAWUSS must think Olbermann is a moron.
Some days it's just too easy.
I'll try my best to avoid that new site. I'll do the same with Current TV when Cablevision inevitably adds it after pressure from OlbyLoons.
I left a comment on the new site to see what would happen. It wasn't nasty or disrespectful, just an observation about the site. The comment was posted but said something about "awaiting moderators approval". I checked back an hour later and the comment was removed. So it's the same old story with Olbermann...dissenting opinions will not be tolerated and will be banned into the abyss. It must be nice to live in Keith's little fantasy world where he thinks everyone just loves him to death and takes his every word as gospel.

I read through a couple of his postings on foknewschannel.
It's long-winded, self-important blather. Exactly what you'd expect from Keith, but still.
Olbermann was discussing O'Reilly's personal life? The true mark of an honest, reliable journalist.
Anyway, I'm surprised our detractors haven't come in and said "It's ironic that you call Keith irrelevant yet you still need to talk about him."
Yawn. I talk about the Dallas Cowboys all the time but that doesn't make them relevant. Find some new material.

The only reason he loves muslims is because they hate America as much as he does. Remember how pissed off he got when Saddam was captured?
