Good Fugging grief Keith Olbermann
Pat Buchanan shows up on Countdown, and now Nora and Tim Russert. You are destroying your program with these hacks as guests. They all receive enough airplay of GEM$NBC. Please Keith I can't take much more of this. Please dear - bring back your credible guests, people with integrity not GEM$NBC spinterviewers.

2. It's election night
If the results came in at 8 EST, they wouldn't even call it Countdown and it would be the same crowd. At least this way we get a little Countdown and a break from Tweety.

15. Looks like they've slithered away
But I fear a return of Noron before we're through with the hour.

17. Her reporting, regardless of who she was married to, was
Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 08:29 PM by sjdnb
in my opinion, much more thoughtful and balanced, in the past.

I don't think being married to someone necessarily means one has to lose their competence, intellect, opinions, and/or independence. If it did, I'd not have been married this long. LOL!

20. True but the choice of mate usually says something about
judgement. Let me ask hubby about that :D

Ah Jonathan Turley's on now. PHEW!!

Not sure where you'll find better political coverage.

7. He does work for GE, you know.
Don't expect MSNBC to be a bastion of liberalism in an election year when the chips are down. They will put the bell on Keith and he will ring it for them.

10. He may not have a choice.
I SERIOUSLY doubt he like Buchanan, or wants him on his show. The higher ups may have decided otherwise.

19. He told a blatant lie the other night
and has yet to correct it.
I sent him the truth, yet the lie still stands.

13. Decided to watch American Idol
It's like politics without the pain :silly:

Will check back later, but ever since Matthew's said Obama makes his leg tingle, I've given up on MSNBC.Sorry Keith, CM needs intervention, you are not the new Huntley-Brinkly Team, it's just uncomfortable.

18. Have you really forgotten who signs his paycheck?
Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 08:30 PM by BeHereNow
Keith is nothing more than a manufactured
and controlled voice of opposition brought to us
courtesy of the powers that be to appease the
masses and perpetuate the delusion that
someone is speaking for we, the people.

Follow the money and consider the source.
Please.

Do you actually think he is not yet another puppet?
Pah-LEEEEEZE.

Not holding my breath.
Until then he is just another talking head to me.

26. That diet of virgin kitten and puppy blood CAN'T be good for any of them you know.
Watch C-Span and their parade of pasty old white men
destroying our country and you'll see what I mean.

29. Good lord
Its not a good night for people and camera's, aparently. Cindy McCain looks like a demon spirit with lots of makeup. Ive never seen her before, but I thought she was supposed to be all womanly to match his macho?

31. You need to get your hands on a copy of "Political Ponerology" and quick!
Make no mistake- she, and the others ARE demon spirits.
The book will explain it all to you quite clearly.
