Obama will be on with Keith O. tonight

[eleny]

Per Tweety just now.

[Vinca]

1. Well . . . at least half of us will see it. nt

[babylonsister]

LOL! nt

[Alexander]

53. More like 90% of us.

The Hillary supporters are turning away from her and the Shillbots are leaving while whining that their spin and race-baiting isn't working.

[mod mom]

84. WAY more than half!

[redqueen]

2. This oughtta be good.

:popcorn:

[zanne]

3. Please tell me what time/station. nt

[eleny]

4. MSNBC at 8 P.M. Eastern Time

[elizm]

5. MSNBC at 8:00

[zanne]

16. Thank you both. nt

[roguevalley]

64. it repeats about an hour or two later. Vinca, very funny. LOL!

[ElsewheresDaughter]

6. and it will be a waste because that's just preaching to the choir...he needs to go on Fox

[azmouse]

9. He is going on Fox.

[eleny]

10. I'll be sure to let him know next time he calls me

:eyes:

[LowerManhattanite]

12. He will be on Hannity and Colmes as well...

There are about six threads about it up as we speak.

[ericgtr]

13. He is going on Fox, Hannity and Combs

at least that's the word going around.

[jgraz]

21. Combs. Lol

[loveangelc]

He is going on Hannity and Colmes.

[zarath]

28. You mean HANNITY and colmes?

Or should I say:

Hannity and Colmes

[backscatter712]

Before they scraped up Alan Colmes,

the FAUX Noise staffers called it "Hannity and Liberal To Be Determined."

[anamandujano]

55. Too right! lol

[stray cat]

40. the choir is voting in the primaries....

[LisaM]

7. Oh dear

Well, that ought to be a slobberfest.

[chknltl]

8. YES!!!!

:bounce: :woohoo: :bounce:

[saracat]

11. Keith will kiss his ass.Like he always does. Good Keith .

He didn't have Hillary on to explain herslf but here he has barack, How "balanced" of him.

[LowerManhattanite]

15. Bitter much?

Yep.

[burythehatchet]

87. it really seems far more complicated than that. I've given up trying to psychoanalyze this

phenomenon.

[pdxmom]

17. You think Hillary called MSNBC and asked to come on? Cause I guarantee

that is what the Obama camp has done. His blitz coverage tonight isn't because he's been invited on all the cable shows, it's because he's called them and offered to be on. And they've all jumped at the chance.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

41. Talk about your free advertising. Watch the polls jump tomorrow. Hillary can't be far behind . . .

or can she?

[Ichingcarpenter]

43. Hillary was invited to explain her tax returns, earmarks and presidential records

But Karl Rove told her to wait until after the Pennsylvania primary.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

46. Good one! LOL!

[pdxmom]

76. Oh, it's a great thing for him to do. Exactly the right response. He's

tackling the issue head on and I admire him for that. And it's a coordinated effort, which I think is great.

[jenmito]

71. Both Hillary AND Bill Clinton have been on Countdown with full love-fest interviews.

Did you miss them?

[pdxmom]

73. I did. I was just addressing the issues regarding this past week, which is

what I thought the poster was addressing.

Keith did his Special Commentary on Ferraro and the tenor of the Clinton campaign. Had Hillary wanted to address that, I'm absolutely sure she could have called MSNBC and scheduled an interview to put her viewpoint on there. They'd have jumped at it.

[jenmito]

77. Just pointing out that Olbermann LOVED the Clintons...until Hillary started playing like a Repub.

with her politics of fear.

[pdxmom]

95. Oh, definitely. And Keith's commentary was spot on. That's why I

always have liked him. He calls it like he sees it.

[WolverineDG]

92. Yeah, reminds me of all the whining about Ed Schultz

"he never has Hillary on" & so forth, when every day, Ed would say he could never get anyone from her campaign to return his calls or appear on the show. He gave Dennis 3 hours one day & had Biden, Edwards, Dodd, & Barack on numerous times for extended periods of time. It wasn't until New Hampshire that he was able to get a Hillary surrogate. Kinda like "well, we need him now, so let's go on his show." :eyes:

dg

[jgraz]

18. Hillary won't go on any of those shows

Do you really think they aren't trying to book her? She won't appear on any show that's remotely progressive.

[sfam]

82. Does she even do CNN or will she only do Fox for cable shows? nt

[redqueen]

19. Do you know if he asked both?

[ossman]

22. Im sure Hillary was jumping to go on air! Reality much?

[azmouse]

23. How do you know he didn't try to get her on?

He's interviewed Bill extensively and KO has said that he considers the Clintons friends of his.

I'm sure if she wanted to come on his show he would have been more than glad to have her there.

[tishaLA]

34. a feeling in the gut, doncha know?

and the guy has more nerve endings than the brain. Don't believe me? Look it up!

[DURHAM D]

26. I won't be able to watch.

I don't care if one grown man wants to lick another - I just don't want to watch.

[Ichingcarpenter]

31. Hillary is going on Keith's to explain her tax returns and earmarks

How balanced of HER.

[Major Hogwash]

44. I think the entire world has seen enough of Hillary.

Maybe she can go on Faux Snooze with Geraldine and complain about how they both aren't black.

LoL

[JenPen98]

56. Yes

I agree with you 100 percent!

[geek tragedy]

65. Well, you'll just be watching Bill O'Reilly anyways. n/t

[roguevalley]

66. she's been on and so has bill. next argument?

[my3boyz]

85. Who cares what that witch (nicest term I could think of) has to say.

[Orangepeel]

90. ..

deleted because lots of people asked the same question before I did.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

14. The guy's really making the rounds. Obama not shying away from this one.

[maddiejoan]

20. Very brave of Obama

to get fellated by KO on national television.

[Qutzupalotl]

25. He's going on Hannity & Colmes too. nt

[ericgtr]

33. crickets

nice how people pay no attention to the actual post and just asssume things.

[Drunken Irishman]

93. Now THAT'S brave.

:)

[Madam Mossfern]

27. You're just jealous.

I'm sorry, but you just left that comment out there.
I'm really not like this.

[LowerManhattanite]

32. He'll be on CNN and Hannity and Colmes tonight as well...

...for the record...

[maddiejoan]

39. well that's a bit braver

[anigbrowl]

48. Afterwards h'e soging to fight a man-eating lion and a killer whale at the same time

while hanging over a pit full of snakes.

[maddiejoan]

51. Now yer talkin'!

He does THAT --and I'll phone bank for him ;)

[anamandujano]

60. He'd have a better chance of winning than massaging this scandal

into something benign.

[phrenzy]

75. "A BIT braver?"

But still not "BRAVE"? What the hell does he have to do? Do an interview while base jumping and juggling knives?

Just say you were trying to take a cheap shot, were wrong and move on.

[golddigger]

91. Yep, cue Jesus Christ Superstar. Keith will have the oil ready and burst into song...

Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to
problems that upset you, oh.
Don't you know,
every things alright, yes, every things fine.
And we want you to sleep well tonight.
Let the world turn without you tonight.
If we try, we'll get by, so forget all about us tonight.

Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you and anoite you.
Myrrh for your forehead, oh.
Every thing's alright, yes, every thing's fine.
And it's cool, and the ointment's sweet,
for the fire in your head and feet.
Close your eyes, close you eyes
and relax, think of nothing tonight.


:evilgrin:

[Ichingcarpenter]

24. I appreciate the self flagellation you must of suffered by watching Tweety

But great news.....Thanks eleny

[eleny]

29. I'm also reading Gaspariino's book "Blood on the Street"

So, it's not too painful when you don't watch the screen. :D

[Ichingcarpenter]

37. The book is suppose to be great

its on my 'to read list'...

I might even turn on Hannity to watch Obama, I haven't watched Faux in years.

[eleny]

47. I read some reviews on Amazon

A couple of people said it was a page turner. So I got it from the library right away. I agree, its really good. Many names and events but I keep reading and like getting the details of what went on.

One more thought - Reading this book makes me realize how although the Clinton years were great, regulators weren't doing their jobs or were asleep at the wheel. The Wall Street folks lied us into the boom and crash. And I'm only 1/3 of the way into the book.

[Cha]

30. Thanks, eleny! Killer

historical stuff to tamper hysteria.
Rec'd!

[Noirceuil]

35. Keith is a Joke!

It is going to be quite amusing watching Keith lick Obama's crack. After blasting McCain for standing on stage with that radical minister and issuing that pompous, melodramatic "special comment" attacking Hillary, the tenor, tone, and content of Keith's questions to Obama about Jeremiah Wright (who said things FAR worse than Ferraro) will be quite different. Tonight Keith Olbermann's credibility and intellectual honesty will die a spectacular death. Somebody get the popcorn!

[Adelante]

45. Gee, another nice addition to our happy family

Welcome to DU, Noirceuil :hi:

[Forkboy]

61. Ah, probably not new anyways.

:)

[Adelante]

69. That is most likely, my friend

:)

The weekend is here!!

[KAZ]

52. Welcome to DU! I look forward to your future utterances...

.. with great eagerness.

[Noirceuil]

59. Thanks

Thanks!

[geek tragedy]

67. Holy stupid freeper morons, Batman! n/t

[yellerpup]

36. The great thing about Obama

is that no matter where he goes to speak and no matter who he speaks to he never makes a fool of himself. He expresses himself like the president we've been wishing we had all these past eight years. Thanks, eleny. I'll be sure and tune in tonight.

[eleny]

50. Your welcome

I'll be tuning in to Hannity & Colmes, too. I want to see how Obama handles himself on that program, too.

[yellerpup]

83. If Mr. Pup isn't burned out on politics, I'll try to catch it too. eom

[anamandujano]

63. Can't wait for the suave when he announces he's going to nuke CA and NY.

It's all about the style, ya know.

[yellerpup]

81. Hyperbole is quite convincing.

Keep it up and you'll keep winning just the way you are now.

[eleny]

38. This has been a helpful thread to me

Disgusting comments bought a couple of people a walk on the plank to a mighty plunge into the drink - otherwise known as my Ignore list. :D
Did you hear the splash? http://www.mediacollege.com/downloads/sound-effects/water/splash-03.wav

[eleny]

42. First one, then two and now there are three

[RememberWellstone]

49. Color me surprised

Time to throw his Pastor under the bus and not take up for him. Shame and scam.

[loveangelc]

62. um, isn't that what people have been saying has to happen?

people who pretended to be "concerned" are showing themselves now, I see...

[JenPen98]

54. I would show up as well

Look at this, Obama has been going to this church for 20 years. For Obama to say that he did not know that his pastor spoke of these views. LOL right Obama. Good one. I am sure Keith will help him find his way out of the hole.

[eleny]

57. A.B. Stoddard! I didn't know you were a member of DU!

:rofl:

[Adelante]

70. Another one

Welcome to DU, JenPen98 :hi:

[ronnykmarshall]

58. I hope he has a nice comfy chair.

Will KO be throwing rose peddles has he walks in?

[JoFerret]

68. Safe in the arms of Jesus.

.

[hiaasenrocks]

72. LOL. I'm sure he'll get tough questions in front of the 200,000 or so viewers.

;)

[jenmito]

74. How'd you feel about Hillary and Bill Clinton's interviews on Countdown months ago?

He had a love-fest with BOTH of them on two separate nights.

[Forkboy]

78. Back then some Obama supporters were accusing Keith of being a "Hill Shill".

Which tells me he's on the right track if he's pissing off both sides. ;)

[jenmito]

79. I was one of them. But I didn't stop watching him nor did I call him a RW tool.

I kept watching AND admiring him. I didn't start saying he's full of himself, has low ratings, or ANY of the things Hillary supporters are now saying about him.

[Forkboy]

80. That's because those people are simplistic morons with ideals more wobbly than a bowl of jello.

:)

[jenmito]

86. I agree.

:)

[madrchsod]

94. that is one million viewers over all

and 350 thousand in the 25-54 demographic:

[HughMoran]

88. Obama is going to be on the Obamaman show?

There's a surprise. I wonder when Hillary will be on?

[jenmito]

89. BOTH Clintons were on. Here are transcripts:

Bill-9/07: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21020060/

Hillary-10/07: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21255520/
