In mocking the anti-tax “tea party” movement, MSNBC “Countdown” host Keith Olbermann smeared the parking lot at Lawrence Dumont Stadium, where the “Tea Party Express” bus tour is scheduled to make a stop Nov. 4.

This from Olbermann’s Wednesday night broadcast:

“Tea Party Express II launches this weekend, coming to 38 cities according to its press release; 37 on their Web site — Oh well.

“Previous tea parties so successful they now have to hold them in such venues as Wichita’s Lawrence Dumont Stadium (pause) parking lot.”

6. I read it; and still don't see any smear.

I suppose he could have noted that it is the parking lot for the stadium that has for decades has hosted the National Baseball Congress semi-pro tournament.

Or has that moved elsewhere?

Anyway, if it's still there, as a former sportscaster, he might have dug that up.

2. Wichita’s Lawrence Dumont Stadium apparently let the contract.

Or as I call it, Tapioca, Kansas -- because it's so bland.
