  • Sheeple still watch this moron for news?

  • Olbermann is the biggest hate-filled, pretentious, whiny, tantrum-throwing, "regressive" tool that's ever been on TV. Talk about closed-minded and bigoted. And by the way, the term "bigot" actually has a definition. It's those who are intolerable to any opposing point of view. I do enjoy, though, the way he seems to think that his rhetoric is so clever and scathing, as if after one of his diatribes, he just imagines his opponents' morale shredded into a million pieces.

  • Is he urinating himself under the desk? And has he stopped blaming females for his lack of hability to "perform"?? I have great compassion for people with disabilities this is why im asking.

  • Totalitarian tactics

    TSA, IRS, Patriot Act.

    Olberman is a liar

  • McCarthy, buried?

    America is STILL McCarthy's bitch. That's why it only has two business parties and no labour party.

  • Perhaps now, after the November 2011 elections, he will take his own advise. If you're gonna dream, dream big!

  • I love and miss Keith.

    I'm sad he isn't on TV anymore.

  • This video seems more relevant now than it was last year with the latest birther babble. While obviously Keith was wrong that the GOP would die by the midterms, that may be because America judges them by their actions more than their words.  Last year they were just obstruction. Now, they are suppressing voters, killing Medicare, stripping unions, repealing child labor laws, giving tax breaks to billionaires, and senselessly striking Obama off the ballot! For all these the GOP could soon die.

  • If the tea party doesn't spew hate, what does it spew? Truth? Even if it is truth, attacking others belief is not the way to approach any issue. As Olbermann said, Their tactics are outdated, and should have no place in social discourse today. Good for them for standing up for what they believe (or what they are told to believe), but the fact they want everyone to give into their ideals is a dictatorship in itself. Both parties need to come together and be willing to give up some to get some.

  • Go Tea Party, keep growing and growing and growing. Olbermann hates the Tea party. He spews his hate and complains about others hate. What a joke.

  • What a shame that your country is so divided. You cannot even hear yourselves in this debate. You talk about each other as enemies worse that Russians and Americans during the cold war. I do believe the far right wing capitalist businessmen will evenutally destroy the great USA if they dont change their greedy attitude. The human factor is no longer part of their formula. Wake up people before its too late.

  • "Refusal to accept the outcomes of elections"

    "narrowness of their public support"

    "willful denial"

    "he represents the minority"

    "failed. Ya lost. Ya blew it"

    "ignored every poll and ignored every election result"

    "I would think the will and desires of your fellow countrymen should be pretty damn clear by now"

    How's that crow tasting Mr. Olbermann? We'll ask again in 2012, sir!

  • @lexilicious74 FABULOUS! You nailed it and I love it. That's exactly what I was thinking as I watched. Nice work, sir! (or ma'am lol as the case may be)

  • any one that disagrees with this.... is just playing devils advocate 

  • so overbite... did you watch the results the other night... when the "dead GOP" kicked our liberal ass into the ground... oh.. and John Lewis can't prove shit!

  • anyone wanna bet he is wetting himself?

  • Keith Olbermann = VILLAGE IDIOT

    His hateful screed was unbearable but the piece de resistance was his prediction that the Republican Party would be reduced to near nothing in the run-up to the midterm elections. This on the advent of an election in which ALL POLLS are showing the Democrats to be getting an ass-whooping so large, as has never been seen in American history before!!!

    Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

  • @welovesarahpalin PALIN IS A TOTAL MORON.

  • I'm waiting for Olbermann to use the nutjob that held the hostages at the Discovery Channel headquarters as an example of every single member of the Green movement in one of his commentaries, like he does every time some idiot remotely associated with Tea Partiers does something idiotic. I wonder how long I will have to wait for that. It will be fun to watch Olbermann go fetal and start sucking his thumb while he is trying to read the election results on live TV this November.

  • This is the liberal leftist propoganda machine at its best. The left is very anti-white, anti-business, pro-gay , and pro-anarchists.

  • @dmeiske1 your conservatives rightist propoganda machine at its best. The right is very anti-minority, pro-fascism, homophobic , and pro-anarchists (you put that in left liberals you stupid conservative usually with right because does want any form of government. now you call us anarchist before you redneck called us socialist or communist now anarchist. you know the opposite of communism is anarchy.

  • WATCH PJTV

  • Shame on you MSMBC for sending this guy out on the public air waves with a loaded diaper. He has the right to have his ass powdered and a fresh diaper every show. Just my opinion !!!!!

  • @nickrambus

    Opinions are assholes. Even idiots have them. That doesn't mean we have to take yours seriously.

  • @Primordialfan1 Would that include Olbermann's opinion? LOL!

  • @r3v3ng3ofthef4113n

    What do you mean? Keith Olbermann is far smarter than 60,000 teabagging Beck fans! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • narratives and illusions are now shattered. Adapt or be exterminated from the public arena with the coming tide in the next 4 years and the collapse thereafter or sooner.

    You have meddled with the forces of nature...and you will atone.

  • of fresh AIR? are you that stupid you think I will beleive you beleivce that?

    no, your trying to mirror the conservative sentiment, so that the other side thinks that other side is as equally baffled....No no friend, I am not baffled. I know EXACTYL what your doing. what organization do you work for? george zoros? american progress, seiu...you tell me.

    Your not fooling anyone here. Judgement day buddy.

  • zenazhorseman...

    who the f are you kidding buddy....your implicit lie is exposed....there is nothing refreshing or truthful about keith olbermann...and everybody knows it...even the people that watch his show except some morons....you wanna know how I know yur lying? your getting huffy puffy over fox news...THE ONE CONSERVATIVE NEWS STATION on television.....and you say 'its a breath of fresh air'...

    are you f kidding me? CNN, new york times, time, newsweek, msnbc....and you need a BREATH

  • no...it is you keith olbermann, who will have to 'accept' the outcome of collectivism and democracy.....

    we don't like your types around here, and I hate to break it to you pal, there are more of us than are of you.

  • everybody commenting here, keith olbermann, cnn, the liberal academic establishment, and msnbc, has all just become, irrelevent.

    Yes, especially after the collapse. I could tell you more about the future, but it would just scare the hell out anybody that isn't far far left.

  • @zeroisonandoniszero the same way conservative have become irrelevent

  • Ha, Ha,keith you donkey kissing obama licker,we will see in Nov.

  • Yes, this guy seems like a breath of fresh air compared to the ignorant right wing vomit that I listen to on a daily basis. I wish I never had to hear a single thinly disguised, hateful, racist, homophobic, DISGUSTING remark from the 'moralists' again. The confusing thing is that I know conservatives who are decent people outside of their political ideas supplied by nonstop filth propaganda via conservative media who play the ignorant for corporate political gains.

  • Again, Olbermann is describing the Tea Party movement and anything else conservative with the same labels that also describe him. He is a gross example of what is contributing to the division of the country.

  • first of all, we lost on healthcare because the "majority" of americans didn't want it!! the government forced this healthcare issue down our throats, SIR!!! and the Tea Party is racist??? Did you look at the headlines in arizona where protestors of the anti-illegal immigration bill threw rocks at cops, SIR??? no? oh thats right, msnbc wouldnt show that, but watch out for the tea party...those violent protestors that haven't done anything violent

  • @Ohhaimark

    If you honestly think the tea party is not racist, then you need to dig your head out of your ass. So are the democrats, so are the GOP, everyone is racist. If you honestly think otherwise, you are living in a false utopia. Get real, racism is prevalent, even though I hate it. Btw, remember the brick through stupak's window by the tea partiers? I'm pretty sure that is violence by the tea poopers.

  • November cannot get here soon enough. I can't wait to tivo Oberwellians head exploding when his Soros-puppet globalist bed-mates are given their walking papers in droves. I guess I should study a bible and clean my guns until then huh? Pompous snark.

  • No penalty for not having Health Care. BS. Olbermann gets wrong again. Because when you fill out your TAX forms at the end of the year, the IRS is going to ask if you have Health Care Ins.. If you mark no, you end up paying an additional tax. Sounds like a penalty to me.

  • @whs161

    Haha you just described a penalty for NOT having health care. Big difference between having and not having health care. You do get penalized for not having it, no one doubts that. But not for having health insurance.

  • This guy keeps me sane. A truth teller compared to thos fools on Mox News.

  • Ahhhh! It's refreshing to hear the truth, even the "brutal" truth, and no one deliver it like Keith! Keep kicking ass Olbermann! We're with you bro!

  • i love this guy. he smacks republican (closet homos) and evangelist haters good.

  • It's so fun to watch the republican sinking ship. More exquisite are the pathetic screaming of it's illiterate, confused and high jacked base. They all deserve far worse for what they've done but this will have to do for now.

  • Why I DISLIKE this msnb channel ??? .Because, This man "K. Olbermann", is very unfair. He & almost all MSNBC reporters, anchormen, analysts % so on, don't report FAIR & BALANCE news reports, breaking news, ect. Why?, Because MSNBC has been almost always far to the LEFT! . I'm an indepent personal conservative because, I believe in Judicial Restraint and NOT jUDICIAL ACTIVIST! . C' mon people living here in USNA ( United States North America ).

  • The KKK just changed its name to the GOP

  • No evidence, no investigations, no arrests???...could it be it never happen? Wouldn't the victim-glorifying, justice-seeking liberals capitalize on the GOTCHA moment and rub it ALL over the right wingers faces? OF COURSE they would!

    Consider what is being reported in this "Not So Special" comment is NOT TRUE.

    And your generalizations, blanketing ALL Tea Party members...bad form.

    Really, quit the name calling and HATING!

  • Of all the special comments, I would rank this as among the best that Keith has ever made. There are many things to look at with health care reform. It is always a messy process but we must go through a little turbulence to fix a system that has ruined so many lives of all backgrounds. Thank you Keith for keeping us informed. The passage of health reform is the first pushback against the threat of a New Dark Age.

  • I took Keith's lunch money from him a long time a go. Given the chance I would do it again. But this time I kick him in the face, balls and ass. Then I'd laugh.

  • Comment removed

  • this guy should take on rush limbaugh and comvert him back to humanity

    Thumbs UP Keith,keep up the Real World expose`

  • This is why I love you so much !You find the vile ,the evil ,the bigoted and the disgusting and you call them out ! I love you ! Thank you for the job you and Rachel Maddow are doing ! God bless you both!

  • This is why I love you so much !You find the vile ,the evil ,the bigoted and the disgusting and you call them out ! I love you ! Thank you for the job you and Rachel Maddow are doing ! God bless you both!

  • The GOP is a parade of vicious little bastards, they work for wall street and they don't give a fuck about the people, they scare idiots with stupid issues like gun control or gay marriage. If we want to live in a real democracy and a fair economy, we must get rid of the GOP. I'd vote GOP if I were rich but since I'm a working class citizen I don't. The GOP is the enemy of the people, the enemy of the worker, they defend your boss not you, get that in your head.

  • I believe if we began teaching a religiously neutral philosophy class in high schools we would have less ignorance running free in this country.

    When you boil it all down to it's bones politics are nothing but philosophy. You cannot expect people to think if you do not teach them the basic tenants of reasonable thinking.

    For instance, a large number of Americans would not be able to identify for me the three components of deductive logic. Is it any wonder they cannot think for themselves?

  • The wackos are getting crazier and Republican leaders are encouraging them.

    "Don't Retreat, Instead RELOAD!" -- Sarah Palin

    "Take Steve Driehaus, for example, he may be a dead man. He can't go home to the west side of Cincinnati." -- Republican House Minority Leader, John Boehner.

    "I want people in Minnesota armed and dangerous . . . Thomas Jefferson told us, 'Having a revolution every now and then is a good thing.' We are at the point of revolution." -- Michele Bachmann (R-MN)

    Outrageous!

  • @goog2k

    These people serve to rile up these lunatics. I just hope no one like Obama or anyone gets hurt as a result of people's idiotic behaviors and actions.

  • You're right, of course. Look at this:

    "Republicans originally thought that Fox worked for us, and now we are discovering we work for Fox." 

    -- David Frum, former Bush speechwriter & American Enterprise Institute Fellow

  • I hope someone saves this video and sends it to good ol' Keithy boy after the Dems "blow it" in November during the mid terms...HAHA

  • @Rules73: I don't think the Dems are going to blow it in November (if anything, they'll use healthcare reform as a badge of honor), but I do think that saying the GOP is doomed to utter destruction is short-sighted and ignorant of history. The GOP was utterly diminished after FDR's New Deal reforms passed, but they didn't disappear then, and they won't disappear now. On the other hand, just like then, they're on the wrong side of history. It's going to take a while to make a comeback.

  • @Rules73 32 Million newly covered people. I'm not sure why 32 million people covered now that couldn't get covered before would vote against those that made it happen. Maybe if those 32 million were conservatives, then I could see that happening. Conservatives have a tendency to be hypocrites to the extremes. They'll use the social security and medicare, then stab the ones giving it to them in the back. Most of the people at these Tea Parties are retired whites living off the government.

  • Needs a video of a bitch slap at the end.

  • Haahaa, The republican party are on a road to NOwhere - No relevency and are behind the wheels of a political TOYOTA....... Holy shit Keith the best analogy for the Repugnant Party

  • The Reptilian Party will destroy health care as they have tried to do with EVERY piece of legislation that has any chance of helping an American. The Reptiles are what is wrong with America, because they are not "American", they are hateful, greedy snakes who can't get enough of fellating their evil. destructive, traitorous corporate masters. And they are hell-bent on fucking you and all of America. Stand up to the lying Reptiles - IF you want to fix your country.

  • The crazy part is that the federal HC reform law is mainly cribbed from Mitt Romney's HC reform law! The federal HC reform is extremely centrist in its ambitions and methods, and the Repubs are treating this like we're in Soviet Russia.

  • @newsradiohead Yes, the Reptilians hate it when someone doesn't do what they want and they hate it when you DO! They are fucking crazy, neurotic, hateful primates who are dragging down this country. The feed off of ignorance and sell fear. It's how they manipulate otherwise well-meaning people to vote AGAINST their own best interests. FEAR man, FEAR!! That's their "master-tool" for everything. God damned them.

  • @OregonDARRYL Feels kind of weird to hear someone obviously anti-Republican using such aggressive language. But maybe that's what's necessary.

  • @Omniceros Yeah, I am just sick of seeing my party (D) let these criminal, anti-AmericaN lizards ruin OUR country. We must stand up to them. The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. I hope every American has had enough of the pillaging of our nation

  • @OregonDARRYL Well said. Just be careful to back up any buzzwords with logic and proof. That's what seperates a well-thought out, but strong argument, from the lunatic ravings we hear from Limbaugh and Beck.

    Back to Olbermann, though, it's nice to see someone stand up for the real Democratic line of thought who isn't Michael Moore, Jon Stewart, or Stephen Colbert; those men all do great work, but Olbermann can perhaps speak to a different kind of audience.

  • Funny shit coming from someone who lives in Oregon. Oregon is an absolute economic disaster right now and all of the Reps from the state are.....Dems.

    Keep voting those people in as they destroy your state.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs The people who continue to destroy Oregon and every state in the country are the Reptilians who want to enslave the polulation to their corporate masters. Republicans are simply mentally fucked-up. They can't do math and want to tell everyone how to live, and what to do in their bedrooms. Then they talk about how much they love "freedom." How fucking stupid and hypocrital can they get? The reptile brain is something else.....

  • @OregonDARRYL

    Yawn....and people (libs) like you want to destroy the USA and enslave the population to their government masters. People like you must enjoy being leaches.

    BTW - Dictatorship has always come from the left.....hardcore leftists take asdvantage of ignorant people like yourself.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs - I haven't received a penny from the government in over 30 years. How fucking stupid are you people? No - really? Just how fucking stupid? WE ARE the government. It's called democracy. OH- wait. that's right - ALL you stupid motherfuckers on the "right" kept kissing corporate ass until they BOUGHT the fucking corrupt money- worshipping TRAITORS who now RUN the corrupt government - Good going assholes!

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    Yes, because we all know that it's the federal congressional representatives that dictate law and policy to states.....

    Moron.

  • @Slipfeed

    LOL.....are you serious? Our individual states have TONS of political power. It's why we have stgate reps you fucking idiot.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    No, I wasn't serious. That was called sarcasm. I know sarcasm doesn't come across the internet quite as well as it does in spoken voice, but generally speaking when dealing with a statement that is so far beyond the realm of common sense as to be laughable, only the complete backbirths are going to believe you're serious, and miss the sarcasm.

    Congratulations.

  • LOL....then you're agreeing with me, idiot. I said Oregon's state lawmakers are screwing the state up...they are all Dems. The guy below disagreed. Congrats on not knowing your shit.

    Hilarious.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    Yaaaaaa...

    See, a representative elected to FEDERAL office from a specific state does not have a vote in the STATE legislature.

    That is why it is completely absurd to indicate that a FEDERAL representative would have anything to do with STATE law, or the consequences those laws may bring. He / she does not have a vote in the state body.

    By now, I should know better than to attempt to engage a person of your obvious mental disability in reasonable discourse.

  • I already owned your ass with facts you retarded piece of shit. I wasn't referring to elected FEDERAL officials, idiot. He said STATE officials have NO power in determining the economic and political environment of the STATE.

    Take a civics course you ignorant fuck.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    Wow....I'm not sure what it was in your life that made you believe that talking to people that way is acceptable. Maybe you're thirteen years old. Maybe your just a miserable person. That's too bad.

    I will point out that the position you took in this message is completely counterproductive to the resolution of a conflict. It just serves to create more conflict and keep people from seeing your side of the issue.

    Maybe this is why we can't get anything done in this country.

  • @Slipfeed

    If you're goig to jump in and not see that he attacked me first then don't say anything. You make yorself look ridiculous.

  • i LOVE this man...Olberman. Alot of people keep saying...why bring up race?? only because there are crazy people out here still 'in spirit' in the 1950's

  • Makes me wish I had msnbc.

  • you can watch him via the web daily. About ten PM. find the podcasts and you can play it. I do that.

  • @SpiritLadyArtist Thanks! Hopefully being Canadian won't keep me out, it does with a lot of web-videos XD

  • @Omniceros I don't think it will. I love him myself. I did not know of him much till the web and a friend watched him. I looked him up and found I can watch him. It is on his page on the bottom of the countdown page the link to the podcast.

    I copy the link and play in in real player myself.

  • @Omniceros

    Google "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" and watch each new episode online for free, my friend.

  • KO--you are a man filled with verbosity and NO facts. how is the stupid kid on the mic at walmart related to the GOP? and i love the guy who noticed the security escorting the congressman on their "historical" walk ALL HAD VIDEO CAMERAS!!!! so someone wanting FACTS is offering a reward for anyone that can produce video proof that the SLURS actually occurred!!!! guess what? they refuse to hand over the video!!!! never happened. history proves GOP has fought more for civil rights than dems!

  • The Klu Klux Klan never went away. It just took a nap.

  • @Coelacanth1938 The KKK was at my college a few months ago giving a rally-Ole Miss

  • @samson5791 Was there cake?

  • @Coelacanth1938 HOLY CRAP!  That's funny! ! !

  • @Coelacanth1938 It morphed intio the nra.

  • @Coelacanth1938 Indeed! And now it has resurrected itself within the ranks of the Democrat Party. It's sad, isn't it!

  • @Coelacanth1938 The followers did, the leaders traded in the sheets and crosses for suits and politcal luncheons.

  • @Coelacanth1938 Unfortunately the KKK has never taken a nap (although I wish it would take a dirt nap!); however, that has nothing to do with the Tea Party Movement or its self-proclaimed members. Thanks for your insightful comment though, it was fabulously well thought out!

  • Olbermann, Im not going to guess your age.. but Im a 22 year old male and would like you to know that you honestly make me feel intelligent.

  • Olbermann calls the Tea Party activists "racist" because he is a mental midget who cannot debate the issues.

    The bottom line is that any crimes committed by a government only occur because the government was allowed to become big enough to commit them.

    The fact that he is on TV is proof that our school system is failing us, and quite frankly I don't want the teachers union to ever get another red cent from me!

  • But I take it that Glenn Beck is mentally stable and grown? Get your head out of your ass.

  • @KingMKLA

    I did not say anything about Glenn Beck. You are small minded assuming that I am a Glenn fan just because I am not Keith fan.

  • @KingMKLA

    Are you going to tell me that the debt that our government is in is a GOOD thing?

  • cannot say it any better awesome mr. Olbermann

  • This video clearly demonstrates why Keith Olbermann's ratings are so low. What most of the liberal media does not realize is that any movement ALWAYS has nutjobs, but in most movements, the nutjobs are a minority. In addition, what Olbermann fails to consider is the fact that violence and racial slurs and threats are being uttered on both sides. Also, is Olbermann claiming that the Tea Party is a Republican conspiracy because he is trying to hide MSNBC's involvement with the Democrats?

  • This video explains exactly why Keith Olbermann's ratings are terrible. The only thing that liberals have on the Tea Party movement is that there are a few nutjobs. Big surprise, Sherlock Holmes! The fact is that in any movement, there are ALWAYS crazy people. Olbermann also neglects the fact that people on BOTH sides are violently protesting and issuing threats. If you need proof, look no further than the 1960s.

  • All pubs did over since I can remember is insist that every man needs to take care of himself and not expect everyone else to pick up for him. So Obama puts that in action by making people buy their own insurance and cover themselves. Now listen to them: "Socialist!" "Fascist!" "Dictator!" Do they know what they stand for or does anybody for that matter? Yes, republicans, buy some damned insurance and cover yourselves. Shame on you if you haven't after all your big talk.

  • arrests????  for speaking freely????

  • I wonder if Keith agreed with the libs that called Bush a Nazi/Hitler/etc.?

    I think we all know the answer to that and it's why his ratings are in the gutter.

  • Very well done, Mr. Olbermann.

    I love it when he's all fired up, like this.

  • Great job Kieth, its time for dreams, not reassholican dream thiefing. The refucklican dream thiefs. Time for dreams, going beyond the impossible, and no more right wing wall street dream thiefing.

  • Comment removed

  • YOU ARENT GETTING MY GUNS SCUM FUCK YOU

  • The BEST Olbermann yet.

  • i think OBergeek means the self destruction of Msnbc is imminent. Reruns of golden girls are eclipsing that station

  • Keith's passion, charm, wit, and animalistic sexual allure is reminiscent of a young Paul Newman and makes my loins tingle.

  • As he says the Republican Party is now irrelevant. I love it! I'm laughing at them, and I am so happy they screwed themselves.

  • Yep. The Tea Party knows it too, and the RNC leadership does too.

  • @4xGregg

    An 'irrelevant' party took Kennedy's Seat in MASS....first GOP winner in MASS since the 40s.

    NJ? GOP Governor...Corzine OUT.

    More to come in November.

  • Comment removed

  • Not so fast. lmao!!!!! If the tea bagging party runs a candidate - they effectively split the lunatic voter block. Yes. Once the tea clowns split the republican vote; a Dem could win with as little as 38% of the vote...... LMAO. Gotta love it.

  • @cecryerjr

    They won't run a candidate and Obama's approval rating is on pace to be worse than Bush's. THAT is bad.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    Actually, he is about where Bill Clinton was in his first term. Keep in mind that most right wingers HATED Mr. Clinton in spite of the billion dollar surplus, jobs and booming economy he directed. Had Mr. Gore been elected instead of Mr. Bush, we wouldn't have had 9/11 - a recession and two unnecessary wars. So, I'm guessing Mr. Obama will be okay. And, what makes you think the Tea Clowns won't run a candidate? They've already picked a few repubs to run against.

  • @cecryerjr

    So you want to blame Bush for the economy but not Clinton's shitty foreign policy that actually led to 9/11? Pssttttt.....Al Qaeda tried to bomb the WTC basement and Clinton did....nothing.

  • @HokiesAndDawgs

    Al Qaeda TRIED to bomb the WTC. TRIED is the key word. Would you have preferred for Mr. Clinton to go to war with a country that had nothing to do with the attempted bombing? Of course not! Clinton's shitty foreign policy had unemployment at 4% . How do you explain that! Please don't let the facts get in your way.

  • @cecryerjr Agree except one thing. Gore WAS elected.

  • @tishhead

    YES !!!!!!! GREAT COMMENT !!!!

  • @cecryerjr I don't know that we would have avoided 9/11, but I would agree that, with 8 months in office and the knowledge carried over from the Clinton years about Al Qaeda, Gore would definitely have done a LOT more than Bush did and *probably* would have headed it off. I think the housing bubble would have happened regardless, but Iraq wouldn't have, and this country would be broke when the recession started. The recovery would have started much sooner and therefore been more effective.

  • The RepubliCANTS just have to realize that President Obama is the best thing this country has seen in eons.

  • @joaneologist

    You must be smoking crack if you believe that.....LOL. Ohio's economy is in the toilet......all thanks to the 'best thing this country has seen in eons.' We'll see how you like those Medicare cuts too, sheep.

  • Olberman's ratings in the gutter = LMAO

  • That is because liberals don't watch the news, they use the internet.

  • Comment removed

  • @jedimastervandar How is it offensive??? It's totally true..... , deal with the truth?

  • i think olbermann overdoes it most of the time, but I definitely like this one a lot!

  • I thought he was against the healthracket. I remmember him saying he would go to jail. Ohh... that was yesterday today is today, like dennis the menace who also sold his soul. I wonder how much obuma and his wall street bankster paid our two of america's most principled liberals.

  • Holy crap...an american who gets it. I guess I should have a little more faith in the USA

  • @Jason442200

    There are a good amount of us that do.

    We're far between and we're always progressive types.

    We really need help stamping out all the idiots though.

  • Micheal thank you, saw you on channel 4 in UK yesterday your back in my good books but do you still label Ralph Nader a spoiler? he got it right did'nt he spot on in fact in almost everything with his No1 point a public option health care system.

    Looks pretty scary these Tea partyers behave next their be wearing suicide vests.

  • From the moment this teabagger cult began I've asserted it is just the new ku klux klan with no sheets

  • @WhenLilacsLast

    Not to mention a ton of fundie nutjobs that

    ignore the teachings of their savior.

    And live in the past.

  • I don't watch keith olbermann, but this is an excellent critique

  • Very well said Mr Olberman

  • Anyone remember when Republicans were men like Barry Goldwater, William F. Buckley Jr., or even Nelson Rockefeller?

    Even if you never agreed with them, you could at least respect them, as educated and civil, men of conviction.

    But theses days... I just hope my dog never bites a Repug. It would probably poison her.

  • go keith!!!!!!!!

  • whoa, hold on a sec here Keith...toyota's are still good P)

  • volvos are better ;) mine still rolls like the day i bought it 18 years ago

  • toyotas are incredible vehicles. its the 100 million american made used pieces of shit on the road that we should be looking out for. fuck cars and this phony economy usa govnmt control shit.

  • oops a daisy. I fucked that up - sorry dude

  • I love his tangents. My very favorite newsman!

  • People in this country are more worried about how much will it will cost, out of their pocket instead of what's good for the community.

  • @LostFREEDOM Yes the economy is in such good shape that they shouldn't worry about money (sarcasm).

  • @LostFREEDOM Let's not forget that most of these people call themselves Christians. When was Jesus more concerned about his wallet than helping others less fortunate? When did Jesus tell other, "Screw them! I want all of my money!"? Good ol' Christians and their hypocrisies.

    Not to mention, they were complaining about people without insurance flooding the E.R.s with sniffles and everyone having to cover their cost. Now, it's mandated and they want to complain that everyone will have insurance?

  • You will not get too many responses to your post. Sometimes people find it a lot easier to ignore the truth !!!!!!!!!!!!! Great post. Someone needed to say it, and you did.

  • @cecryerjr Thanks. I wasn't surprised by no comments though. It's a lot easier for people to bitch and moan than to agree.

    Now that healthcare is finally starting to be repaired, maybe we could start on education next. Maybe we can get rid of the fundamentalists in TX that decided to pull Jefferson out of the history books. Christian or not, everyone here knows that Jefferson was the biggest part of our constitution. Pulling him out is trying to hide the truth.

  • I have long supported health care for more than ten years, but it's only been recent that I've been called every name in the book including the favorites like "socialist." It's easy to get caught up in an avalanche of hate which plowed through supposed courteous political discourse. Instead it has been school ground tactics which I have often been guilty of. People in this country are more worried about how much will be taken out of their pocket instead of what's good for the community.

  • love it or hate freedom of speech applies to everyone black and white.freedom to say racial things is still freedom of speach, even thou I don't approve of it.

  • this guy has problems.

  • Interesting stuff.

  • let them kill themselves , they`re animals anyways ....

  • The day Obama = Socialists is the day.

    The GOP = Fascists.

    Actually no... the GOP are more like Fascists then Obama is a Socialist.

  • Insurance companies are the villian. They let people die to save costs. They run saving someone's life like a business.

    We need to do away with health ins companies. Also taking care of the greater good is more important than our companies making money. Capitalism has been failing the US for the last 30 years in many ways. It has it's drawbacks, Capitalism is far from perfect.

    Obama is not a socialist either it's all fear mongering from conservatives.

  • long live Kieth Olbermann!

  • What are you talking about?? Capitalism has been failing me for years. I haven't had healthcare in 5 years, I haven't seen a doctor since I got out the military. And now instead of a universal healthcare or public option I have to buy into the capitalist sytem. I have to buy gas for my car when GM trashes the EV1 cause GM woudln't have made much money. There are millions of ways Capitalism hurts us.

    Your right, we are told Obama is the villian everyday on fox news and rednecks believe it.

  • Now.. who's more rediculous?
