    Keith Olberman on fire again: this is good

    Keith O is en fuego. One of the few rational, passionate voices of dissent left. And Jer, this one's for you buddy (pre-emptive douch'ing of thread by you).

    I am not a Fox News Advocate, but neither am I a proponent of this dramatic stuff either. The opening segment setting up Bush as a figure that the Libs put their faith in is disingenuous and used just to juxstapose the Libby pardon, something most can agree was not as surprising as Olberman made it out to be. You didn't crack the case Olberman. You didn't need the 2 minute diatribe on how wrong it was. I will sum it up. The guy is on the outs and he doing whatever the hell he wants right now because he can. And finally, just because you address Bush specifically, as if he were right in front of you, doesn't mean he is listening or cares.

    Don't throw your own red herring out there by comparing this to Fox News - please. Fox is essentially a propoganda machine for the GOP and this administration is particualr.

    This is simply an editiorial, his opinion (this is not supposed to be "news").

    His Special Comment below on the recent pardon by Bush of Libby is simply devastating in it's spot-on critique of the croynism and partisianship that has obliterated any last shred of representative government for all the people (not just one fraction of it).

    How can it NOT be spot on. It's like receiving laud for eloquently breaking the news that the world is round.

    Not bad but I liked Olbermann better when he was an ESPN talking head and worried about Jeff Gilooly and Michael Irvin.

    yeah, I am with you, I too liked him on ESPN. But serious times demand...well, uhhhh, you know....

    it's sad when a former sportscaster and a comedian (Jon Stewart) are the only main stream media peeps that aren't afraid to call it like it is.

    You've made that really easy to do.

    Olberman is a smart guy, I just never seem to watch his show (I guess that's because it's on MSNBC and no one has ever watched MSNBC?). I used to hear him on ESPN radio all the time.

    So - if a moron says a certain talking head is a "smart guy", does that actually make said talking head a moron? This is really confusifying.

    Hurricane/cj/Blurred - I'd like that case of PBR now.
