Keith O and Richard Wolfe slamming Hillary on her Iraq War vote right now.
Keith just laid out the clearest case yet why Hillary's bullshit on her pro-war vote doesn't hold water.

Richard Wolfe summed up her statement from last night (about the Levin Amendment giving too much power to the UN) as nothing more than the case that was being made by Dick Cheney and his staff.

Levin made it clear, during floor debate, that there was nothing in the Amendment that gave the UN power over the United States and in fact the Amendment clearly stated that the United States has a sovereign right to defend itself.

So Hillary is either calling Levin a liar or she's just proving (once again) how bad her judgment is.

2. He's not drinking the Clinton(s) kool-aid.
If you missed the segment, try to catch it on replay. It's very well done and well sourced.

6. He's pandering to his audience. Just like Bill-o. Blue-collor rock-ribbed Dems don't watch him. n/t

Typical Hillary supporter.

26. Well in my opinion he has jumped the shark
His subtle brand of bias is kind of disgusting considering most here think he is the reincarnation of Edward Murrow. Not really so honest and not much on integrity.

32. spending too much time with Tweety
the Clinton hatred is rubbing off on him.

He is developing an increasingly sanctimonious, self important and morally superior tone. He becomes less appealing every day. I don't need another celebrity 'journalist' preaching at me. Shit, the MSNBC crew is pushing me back to Lou Dobbs and Wolf Blitzed for less biased coverage. KO is getting a little too full of himself lately. His act is starting to wear thin; I used to never miss his show now I can barely watch him and don't much any more.

9. Nope.
Olbermann refuses to lie and revise history to make certain politicians look good.

The truth is, Clinton supporters want him to be more like Bill O.

11. How's that? O'Reilly doesn't tell the truth.
And Keith wasn't lying here.

4. Excellent segment.
Unfortunately for Hillary (and her supporters), the truth hurts.

18. the Levin amendment didn't put the U.N. in control
but many believed the bill relied too much on decisions made in the U.N. to make up Congress' mind. I don't think so, but that was a legitimate difference at the time. You can very well claim that the Levin amendment cedes too much of the decision making to the U.N. without that difference of opinion being labeled a lie. Clinton has said this before in a much more measured way.

19. What's the argument for that claim. I'm curious, especially in light of the fact that
this issue was debated on the Senate floor and Levin himself quoted from the bill denying the claim.

23. He blows hot and cold
from HRC and Obama depending upon who is up in the polls and whatever is being posted on Daily Kos. He kisses ass to whomever he thinks is watching his show. I have zero respect for him as a result.

25. Joined DU a little over a week ago, I see. Your comments are such a surprise.
I am so tired of the Hillbots showing up here just recently with their few dozen or hundred posts to trash folks like Keith Olbermann who have stood up for us and with us a lot longer than since January 22, 2008.

You don't know what the hell you are talking about it.

29. You sure as hell don't know Keith Olbermann
"Blows hot and cold?"

You ever watch the show? And for how long? If you support Obama and have watched Olbermann for any length of time, you live in a different universe from the rest of us.

And just as well.

30. Thanks ... I've changed by mind, negatively, toward Hillary after hearing
her supporters. Recently, as with her comments at last night's debate, prove she's lying.
