My letter to MSNBC...........
To the Editor,

I have been an MSNBC viewer for many years. My morning routine included Imus and then in the evening Hardball with Chris Matthews. Fortunately Keith Olbermann was added to your roster and I find him the breath of fresh air so sorely needed in the present media environment.

I write you this letter in absolute and total disgust with your programming, and to let you know you have lost one more viewer. I shall now be watching my local programming, listening to the radio and attempt to get my information from any other source than MSNBC. Your programming/shilling constantly for the McCain/Palin losing campaign confuses me. All day the constant pandering and attempt to prop up this dead horse mystifies me. Scarborough and whatshername are totally unwatchable and it goes the same during the day. My only respite has been at 8 pm when Keith comes on. I shall miss him, but can always catch him on YouTube on the internet.

The President of the United States will be Barack Hussein Obama, get used to it and get over yourselves. I have not heard a positive word from anyone re your daytime programming and at a restaurant I was in today, someone yelled to the owner to turn your "crappy station off." I believe Mrs. Greenspan was doing her usual shilling. It's boring and not good TV.

Sincerely,

1. I fired this off earlier tonight....
Subject: Mika Brzezinski

What has happened to Mika? I had to change the channel tonight as I was watching David Gregory's show. She was positively sickening, fawning over that nitwit Sarah Palin. What happened to objective journalism? I consider David's show to be fairly middle-of-the-road. MIka belongs on Fox. And your station should be ashamed of yourselves showing those hateful Rev Wright ads. I'll be so glad when this divisive election, thanks to McCain/Palin, is over and Senator Obama is President Obama!

4. They want "there will be more wars" McCain.

snip...

• GE has also secured millions of dollars in defense and military contracts, earning itself a place among notorious war profiteering companies.

Check out this frightening video of McCain saying over & over again how there will be more wars. It's about 5 minutes long, but very worth the time. What Scott Ritter says is absolutely chilling.

5. oh, I know that, I have a close relative, a former GE exec...
from what I hear, it was not too fun around their household during the Vietnam war, as the oldest kids were heavy duty into the anti-war movement...GE is still big in the war biz
