8. Nice!!

[veganlush]

[bjobotts]

11. Cheney: guilty in the court of public opinion for torture and mass murder.

[bjobotts]

13. Apprehend whenever possible and hold until punishment is determined.

[bjobotts]

14. Seems KO is one of the few unafraid to call Cheney a liar...which he is.

[AlbertCat]

58. Indeed

I for one don't believe for a nano-second that Cheney believes what he just told us rubes to absorb. Dick is as disingenuous as they come....beyond belief.

Parents....this is the unparalleled example of Hubris to show your kids. Cheney is a lesson in awful.

[commanche]

12. Beyond brilliant

There is no man or woman on the mainstream media that tells it how it is, bar olbermann. Hopefully people stand up and take notice, becuase Olbermann is the real voice of 'change'.

[burning rain]

15. Olbie regains his stride like a champ.

A great Special Comment in the old style.

[quidam56]

16. Bush/Cheney are TOXIC TERRORISTS

Stop bombing Appalachia ! http://www.wisecountyissues.com The coal ash spill in Tennessee and Alabama shows how toxic coal is, yet they can't blow up
our landscape fast enough. Kept U.S. safe my ass...

[DUlover2909]

17. Awesome. Thanks for posting.

:kick:

[EraOfResponsibility]

18. Wonderful! I wish he had quoted Benjamin Franklin also

Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety

[jeff30997]

23. Very appropriate.

One of my favorite political quote since 9/11,the "Patriot" Act and the U.S turning into a police

state.

[Seldona]

19. Great piece.

Cheney is just WISHING for an attack. All the neocons are. They don't care one bit about protecting this country, only in seizing and holding power.

It is truly a danger to us all, considering they embedded people like this all over the government.

[LaurenG]

20. Keith is "exorcising" Cheney

Wow!

[changemonger]

21. GREAT !

Keith does what most of the stupid talking heads (propagandists) on cable TV should be doing. It's amazing how easy it is to debunk this nonsense.

[Skratchez]

43. It wasn't that easy,

or you or I would have said it. Unlike the vagaries of menacing terror-men that Bush/Cheney paint, Olbermann actually did some research, cited sources and made comparisons to evil political machinations in history and film. I usually just rant all the "known knowns" about the Evil Empire of the past 8 years he did the legwork and boiled it down to its corrupt essence.

Nice job KO.

[barbtries]

22. that was a really good one

the dick should be put away NOW. or die.

[OneGrassRoot]

24. Wish I could embed this in every email I send out....

brilliant. Thanks, KO, and thanks kpete for posting!

:)

[Turborama]

29. I agree, this is the 1st video I've seen in a while that I reckon needs to go viral K&R

Thanks for sharing, kpete

[jeff30997]

25. "Mr Cheney,which orifice are you pulling these numbers from ?"

Well it's hard to tell because Dick-head is such a huge asshole.

Recommended.

[proud2BlibKansan]

26. That was my favorite part too

LOL

[DemoTex]

27. Dick Cheney & his sidekick Bu$h: Hostis humani generis.

Hostis humani generis (enemies of mankind) .. still.

[AnOhioan]

28. K&R with pleasure

[keepthemhonest]

30. I love it

Keep it up Keith

[Hubert Flottz]

31. What he said!("Don't Be A Dick!"

K&R...

[The Wizard]

32. Cheney is hoping for or planning

another terrorist attack to cover his ass for war crimes. Seize his assets.

[Amonester]

34. yep. PNAC is back in the business of terrorizing Americans

for greed, power, and global domination for themselves and chainy, the war criminal.

:puke: http://www.newamericancentury.org/

[Sal Minella]

40. Wasn't it Bolton (Yosemite John) who said the U.S. needs to choose some little country

from time to time and just slam it up against the wall so the rest of the world will continue to take us seriously -- Cheney is essentially saying the same thing in more socially-acceptable fashion -- we have to hurt them before they hurt us, terra terra terra.

This rancid sack of suet can make his miserable way back to Wyoming any moment now, far as I'm concerned. It's unthinkable that he'd be anywhere near CIA headquarters.

[Highway61]

33. Love it

Hits it on the nail....again.

[olegramps]

35. Unfortunately his voice is being drowned out:

By the silence of the mass media who were the lapdogs of the Bush-Cheney administration. What I have heard from the White House Press Corps is a renewed attack on Democrats from the very same people whose columns and commentary during the Bush years amounted to republication of the administration's talking points. The Republcians are masters at deception.

They have convinced the average American to believe that Unions are evil, Tariffs are bad for trade, the press is Liberal and that tax cuts for the wealthy stimulate the economy.

[Turborama]

36. Here's the transcript...

Olbermann: Cheney doing the work of terrorists
The former V.P. is using fear mongering and lies to manipulate Americans
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29040063

[madamesilverspurs]

38. Well said,

but it didn't go quite far enough. It's clear that Cheney outright hopes for another attack -- he didn't exactly see a decline in his personal fortunes after the last one, did he?

[veganlush]

44. of all the arguments of the right -wingers, the one I find most ..

frustrating is this "they kept us safe" crap. Do these people really think that Al Queida's only objective is to watch buildings fall? What are they, demolition buffs? The purpose of the attacks was to cause fear. That's why they call it "terrorism" The reason they want people terrified is because a scared populace will often make rash, panic-driven decisions. The objective has nothing to do with seeing how many buildings they can knock down. It's like saying "why didn't John Wilkes Booth go back the next day and shoot Lincoln again?" The reason was, he didn't have to. The awful deed was done. The same is true with 911. Bin Laden said he wanted to see us go bankrupt. Thanks to the panic-stricken bushco, we started a war that had nothing to do with 911 at huge cost. If not for those incredibly large expenditures, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in today. Our moral leadership in the world was lost as it came out that the panic-stricken draft-dodgers running the executive branch had scrapped the Constitution and started torturing people abroad and spying on people at home. Bin Laden has sat back and watched as his actions, coupled with the Bush/Cheney/ Neo-Con incompetence, has given him every thing he wanted; the downward spiral of our way of life and our standing in the world, a curtailing of our personal freedoms as our leaders manipulate us with fear. "We haven't been hit again" as if the enemy just intends to keep hitting buildings and killing us 3,000 people at a time, until we are all gone and they can take over the land. After the 911 attacks, some on the right blamed Clinton, even making a movie with that message, saying failed to take out Bin Laden when he had the chance. Of course, the pre-911 Bin Laden was a different animal then the one that Bushco gave a pass to. Before 911 Bin Laden had a bad reputation as the one likely behind the Cole bombing and other terror acts, but not the household name that he became in the wake of September 11, 2001. Cheney's words now are a preemptive strike designed to inoculate the former administration so that if there is another attack, the fact that THEY TOO failed to bring Bin Laden to justice can be countered with the argument that we should have continued their methods, the methods that are bringing us down to the level of our enemies.

[Dangerously Amused]

51. Well said. Thanks.

[madamesilverspurs]

55. "...Bush/Cheney/ Neo-Con incompetence..." NOT!

Claiming 'incompetence' let's them off the hook. They are NOT incompetent. They ARE indifferent. As long as they get to walk away with their pockets stuffed, which is the present case, they have very adroitly, and competently, achieved their goals. They simply do not care about the devastation caused by their ambition.

[AlbertCat]

60. BINGO!

[dglow]

62. Terrorist and Traitor

So true! You have to be naive not to see that Cheney and gang were behind the terror attacks on the Twin Towers on 9-11. When he forecasts another terrorist attack on America, you can count on it -- probably a few months before the next presidential election.

[dglow]

63. Et tu Brutus

Cheney, Rummy and their neocon friends talked about the need for a "Pearl Harbor" and low and behold we had one. Do you think 9-11 was a coincident? Come on. If anyone knows about future terror attacks on American soil, I'd take Cheney seriously because he's the Wizzard of Oz behind the curtain.

[Politicalboi]

39. I saw this last night

It was great. Just wondering if anyone knows if this is really Obama talking or did they dub it.

http://www.jabberwonk.com/flinker.cfm?cliid=mb5l5

[vinylsolution]

41. Cheney needs to be tortured for information.

He obviously knows something that could prevent another 'terrorist attack'.

[Harry Monroe]

42. Waterboard his ass!!

Since he doesn't consider it torture, I'm sure he can take it. I'd love to see it happen!!

[underpants]

45. "Naivete" is the word that sums them up perfectly

Naive ideas
naive planning
and, on an astronomic scale, naive execution and operations

[Martin Eden]

46. K&R for one of Keith's BEST

Absolutely had to be said -- and KO is the one we can Kount On.

[ooglymoogly]

47. Another KO for KO kr nt

[Royal Sloan 09]

48. Tom Hartman, says, "Dick Cheney is a Terrorist !" eom

[Oldtimeralso]

49. Great Job!

Keith you made the 100 yard return.

[LiberalLovinLug]

50. Kick

and a rating on the You Tubes

[GreenTea]

52. Thanks Keith!

[LatteLibertine]

53. Yeah

I saw this when KO delivered it on Countdown. WTG!

[Karenina]

54. I wonder how many understand what Keith said?

We here scream, " RIGHT ON, BRO!!!" But.... How many are clueless to his references?

I LOVE KEITH! What he crafted linguistically was indeed a work of art. I'm fine with "get up to speed, y'all" but hope that those who are struggling have compassionate translators. Platt Erklärung, meine ich. ;-)

[pasto76]

56. I didnt know the millenium bomber was the intel source for Sept 11

hmm. These people are versed in misdirection. It was like wow, so the process worked, and we dropped the ball, lets tell them the exact opposite from now on.

[ecstatic]

57. Cheney: Should he be forced to apologize or do we just ignore him

as irrelevant? His comments were so out of line and disrespectful!

[AlbertCat]

61. Should he be forced to apologize

Nah....

All Obama has to do is remind us the Cheney got us to the hole we're in now and has been wrong about everything he has ever predicted.


Of course Cheney doesn't believe what he just said either.

[RavensChick]

59. Beautiful!

Kick this bad boy 'cause Keith shot another one outta the park!!!!!!!! Awesome!

[northofdenali]

64. I've forwarded this to over 100 people so far.

Olbermann rules. I've never, ever, in my long and Cronkite-admiring life, heard another newscaster do the job as well as Keith.

Can anyone else imagine (AND fantasize) about a Cronkite/Olbermann nightly news show with Sunday commentary and interviews? I would download and record so many shows that my library would expand exponentially.

AMAZING.

Sent thank you's to KO, producers, et al.

[DutchLiberal]

65. Just when you think he couldn't top his previous 'special comment'...

"Busy as you were stalking Saddam Hussein..." :rofl:
