|Bunghole| Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 For one, you as a Hillary hater should rejoice at this rejoinder... For two, you act like Olbermann is any more objective than O'Rielly. There's certainly an agenda here. And hey, if Keith wants to rail against Billary, let him. We agree on few things, but we can both agree that Billary is a horrible cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|Elflocko| Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Comparing Keith Olbermann to Edward R. Murrow is like comparing Ben Roethlesberger to Johhny Unitas. Spare me. You agree with him, fine, but the comparison is asinine. No offense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontPushMe Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Olbermann is the truth. IMO Olbermann is the premier political analyst right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama really made him look like a dumbass when he was nice to the guy. As for him supporting obama, what a joke. Billo is far right. Just because he says hes an independent doesnt mean he is one.

No way I could actually take the guy seriously after watching him for years on ESPN... But, in all fairness I could give a shit less what most talking heads think. Just like actors / actresses - for whatever reason they feel the need to let everyone know who they support and why, etc. like that is going to change my opinion. I didn't know being an actor required them to have intellectual superiority over everyone else. I just never understood why they feel the need to share their opinions.

[/quote]lol yea, but the point is that the most prolific compromise he has made in recent years was when he compromised his own beliefs to fit his parties pro-war ultra-conservative base, and it is because of this transformation that he will be unsuccessful to pull in independents and moderates during a general election.
