Wow Walkermydawg! Now I see! You must be right because of your coherent post and your dignified language! I see the light! The Democrats ARE right and Obama IS the messiah! Thanks so much! I'm sure some Republican or FOX got in there and sabotaged your spelling of the current Speaker of the House, too. Wonder if you could spell "Pelosi," the first woman ex-Speaker in our illustrious history??
Keith Olbermann has no problem complaining about President Bush's partisanship but he doesn't seem to recognize President Obama's. Obama routinely attacks Republicans and doesn't invite them to any of his "meetings." Of course, he seems like he wants them to show up now that he's lost Congress. Poor Olbermann. America laughs at him.
@slocumdave It's been the punchline of comedians well before you post that republicans do no accept his invitations up literally until just over 2 weeks ago by a reluctant Bohner. Fuck you. Watch more political comedians to get your facts instead of another network, like your precious little fox. I wish we could laugh at bush just based on his inability to form words into coherent sentences, but we are in dire straits because of his ginormous fuck ups.
@slocumdave Your post was bull shit then 7 mos. ago. The repubs routinely refused invitation, save one. Obama was invited to a summit by the tea bagger/repub party, and then when he accepted, they said, to the effect, god damn no, he has cooties. You damn well know what I am posting about. Step up to the plate slick. You refer to him as president. The only lawful office he had was governor; he was appointed by the sup. ct.
What's so smart about this asshole? He's just reading a prepared speach from a teleprompter that some left wing wacko wrote. I suppose you voted for Obama and you think he's smart too?
Those who think it's mostly the christians (christian names) that say all the bad things about Islam are wrong.
It's always some very organized Jewish paid workers (paid by american tax payers money) who shits around about the Muslims with those christian names to make the muslims and the christians believe that the christians too are against Islam.
This is one of the many ugliness of the Jewishness.
the only thing olberman knows is that he would take it up the ass to prevent a war...most people believe there are things worst than dying The big O wouldn't mind if you banged his woman, raped his nation and why isn't the journalist who leaked the name of the spy in fcking jail...result is result.
are you now? have you heard his latest tirade? what fucking bigoted piece of upper-class shit. Bet he still listens to soft rock, pseudo-intellectual moron.
Blame the US Congress. They declare war in America, not President Obama or Bush. Congress also controls the money and everything else. I blame them more then I do these people in the White House . . . .
that is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard. Its like saying, I have telepathic powers. I'll prove it. I want it to rain, and if it just happens to rain, then I have telepathic powers. Thats bullshit.
Well I'm saying that our safety wasn't just a coincidence. Our safety and security was directly related to the measures that President Bush and many Republicans (and some Democrats) took to protect us.
I don't buy that for one minute. There is no evidence the measures worked. Al-Qaida is regrouping, and furthermore terrorists leave long pauses in between major attacks. Therefore you have no evidence whatsoever proving that torture made us safer, or that the fascist outing of a CIA agent for dissent made us safer. Your side should be in prison.
lol, the evidence is that we haven't been attacked dumbass. We've stopped at least 9 different attacks in this country, maybe more that we were never told about.
Okay, and about the "fascist outing of a CIA agent"....
She wasn't an undercover agent. She didn't need protected. And it's already been proven that no one from the Bush administration did that. Additionally, she wasn't the one that expressed dissent. That was her husband... lol, all your facts are so wrong.
Clearly, I've stumbled onto an idiot partisan hack. You'll never convince me neo-con. Fascists like you have no place in a functioning democracy. I will never forgive you people for trying to build a totolitarian state out of the United States. You're lucky its Obama in there and not me. I really would get revenge on the neo-cons.
"non sequitur", which translated means: It doesn´t follow.
You are ignoring all other possible explainations, why you haven't been attacked.
BTW if I were you, I would thank every president BEFORE 9/11 for keeping america safe for however long that was. And blame Bush for not preventing 9/11.
Bush didnt do a goddamn thing for this country, the laws of probability preclude your viewpoint that whatever illigitimate war that a president starts can be likened to keeping anyone safe... It didnt keep the thousands of americans that have died in iraq safe...it didnt keep the tens of thousands of dead Iraqi nationals safe...(they're people too, they count). it didnt keep us safe. To think otherwise is to have a completely BASELESS viewpoint.
well it's official: bush did not pardon libby. i'm shocked - not by this fact, but by the fact that bush finally did something right!! oh my god!!!! to all you right wing gestapos out there: too bad!
i always thought that this power to pardon was for people who because of technicalities got jailed or convicted of crimes they couldn't avoid paying for.
-someone defending his family, killing a burglar and going to jail for murder
-someone killing the murderer of his entire family and having already spent say 20 years in jail
etc.
not something you use to get your friends out of a hot spot so they can attend your cocktail parties.
The only reason Scooter Libby was convicted of a crime is because he accidentally said that he learned that Valerie Plame worked for the CIA from Tim Russert. He had zero motivation for lying to investigators. He was only trying to help the investigation. And besides, Plame wasn't even a covert agent for the CIA!! So even if Scooter Libby did reveal her name (which we all know now that he didn't), it wouldn't have been a crime. You've already ruined the man's life, what more do you want?
Scooter Libby outed a CIA agent because her husband did not tell the republic party what it wanted that Iraq was about of get nuclear wepons for africa so Scooter Libby commited a crime to punish a man who did the right thing.
not even Nancy Pelosi thinks that's true... not even Barack Obama thinks that's true.... everybody now knows that Scooter Libby in fact DIDN'T release the name. He simply made a mistake and said he heard the name from Tim Russert, when he must have heard it from someone else. It was obviously just an honest mistake, because he had no motivation to lie. If he really had to lie, he just wouldn't have said anything.
JUSTICE. Plaame was "a covert operations officer for the CIA"...those are her words. ROVE is the one who belongs in jail, but Libby is the one who took the blame for the administration.
Thank you for proofreading my comment. The mistake is a typographical error and not an educational one. As for your numerous spelling errors, I will infer they are typographical too. As for the mistakingly titled video, President Bush 'commuted' Mr. Libby's sentence. Hopefully the 'pardon' is forthcoming.
The sentence-by-sentence speaking skills of George W. Bush are deteriorating. This may be due to presenile dementia. Bush may or may not still be drinking heavily. Bush was arrested for disorderly conduct. Bush was arrested for stealing. Bush was also arrested for a serious crime—driving under the influence of alcohol. All in all, Bush is a severely mentally ill individual. Bush should be locked up.
Keith Olbermann seriously has the least boundaries of any news pundit i have ever seen. Do you know anyone with such a critical and outspoken voice about the president. I'm surprised the network lets him say that. Personally my favorite is Jon Stewart.
Ms. Olbermann- I accuse you of being hypocritical windbag. How many trips to the thesaurus did it take to make that trash sound intelligent? Like lipstick on a pig...and hypocrit, never speak of Nixon again.
Thesaurus? He only uses simple words that every one can understand. If you have problems with that, you are truly illiterate. And the word is spelled "hypocrite".
This speech will be studied in 100 years as an example of oratory art on a par with Cicero and Demosthenes. That is ... if Americans still know how to read.
Polite society? Haha, I'm sorry, but if you're going to collectively say republicans shouldn't be allowed in one, then I ask you, Which society is collectively polite hm? Ignorance at it's best.
Your ignorance baffles. "Polite society" is an expression meaning any group of people who are educated and tolerant. It's not about any particular society. This is the type of thing you learn by going to school and being intellectualy curious about the English language and its history. And, BTW, you can't "collectively say" and you can't be "collectiviely polite". Dumb American!
Jesus Christ, I know what it means you nitwit. The point I was trying to make is using the expression here is pointless because it is in fact a misnomer. There is no 'polite society.' If you meant educated, tolerant people, then, again, tell me where you can find these in a societal context. I've traveled quite a bit and I can't seem to find any. For example, you are coming off somewhat educated, but not very tolerant. Your stereotyping of republicans is ignorance itself.
Interestingly enough, I don't think you understand how liberalism works in America. Being intellectually thirsty and educated is largely a republican ideal in this country. The liberals would like to believe education is owed, when in fact, and I'm sure you would agree, it is earned. Perhaps liberals are different in pseudo-European countries like Canada, but in America they are not like you my friend. And they most certainly are not 'tolerant'.
Also, the fact that you refer to me as an American only reinforces your elitist point of view, and makes you look like an ass. Are you really a liberal, or, like many I know, do you like to say you are to appear socially and intellectually superior?
What do you want me te refer to you as? You ARE an American and I am Canadian. You are ignorant and I am educated. You are intellectually lazy and I'm not. Only in Republican circles in America are the words "elite" and "liberal" considered bad. The US were founded by liberals and if you ever need your head dislodged from your asshole, pray to God it's done by an elite surgeon and not Dr. Phil.
Haha, ok. Liberalism was a little bit different in the mid 1700's don't you think? Liberal was freeing slaves 150 years ago. Today, it's giving checks to the uneducated. Since when is liberalism about self interest and social policies? I never knew our founding fathers thought MTV was a good idea... You keep listening to your 'superior' Petula Clark, while I finish my twelve-tone composition for advanced theory.
Please stop obsessing about me. This isn't about personality. Pesonal attacks are for Republicans who can't deal with facts, a.k.a. reality. People don't make personal attacks in polite society.
"Learn to spell". Sounds like a personal attack to me. Oh and look at this: "RIGH-wing fundamentalists". Hypocrite, just like the rest of them. You wait, I can see the "oops, why is our country getting worse LOLO!!1!!" posts now...And, again, who are you kiding with your 'polite society'?
Being a Republican, you have cut yourself off from logic, reason and intelligence, but mostly from your own humanity and compassion. You can't express any other emotion than the fear reflex when confronted with (1) anything or anyone different from your inbred Ozark environment and your limited skewed and cultish understanding of the world, (2) people who need your help and (3) facts. You have to rebuild yourself from the inside out because you can't stay emotionally crippled all your life.
I call attention to your poor spelling and grammar as indicative of your lack of basic education because language is the premium tool for discussion in polite society and you have a long way to go to master that tool. A personal attack is delving in someone's background to make fun of their likes and dislikes.
I call attention to that which is not relevant, because I can not counter with an argument of substance! I need distraction and deception because my beliefs have no foundation!
I find it weird that you, like me, believe in the disclosure project, yet you admire the filtered drivel on American leftist news like NBC and CNN. Please, you're a pseudo intellectual. Translate this: YOU'RE SHIT STINKS TOO.
I can't translate faulty English. That sentence shoud read: "Your shit stinks too." Learn to spell. The US has just gotten rid of 8 years of lies, corruption and the reign of bullies, racists, fundamentalists, demagogues and retards. Learn to live with it. Canada is also in the process of getting rid of its righ-wing bullies. So we have a lot of sympathy for the American people right now. Don't waste it with your petty hatreds.
Its been one year since i commented on this video and not only is Olbermann still a fuckstick and full of hot air, but our country is even further in the shitter. Thanks pseudo-intellectuals for the help. Looks like logic is beginning to prevail with that Mass. win after all.
Republicans are still the cause of all your financial troubles and Tea Baggers have just leagued with big business and partisan interests to deprive 60 % of Americans of the right to not die prematurely without medical help for lack of a decent health care system during the next 40 years. What have you got to be proud of?
I see you're still obsessing about me and going on with your personal attacks. What's next for you? Stalking? Joining Karl Rove's Special Dirty Tricks Unit? Spreading rumours about the Obama girls' sexuality?
AHAHAHAH! I made no attack whatsoever! HAHA! Calm down there hehe. Remember: Celui qui désespère des événements est un lâche, mais celui qui espère en la condition humaine est un imbécile.
this man is a true man and my god what a speach god bless him my god people need to wake the fuck up lets go burn something down and right fucking now
you go keith!!! The president is weak and should be impeached! he has sent brave Americans into a war that was build on lies! Nixon was impeached for less!
President Bush pardon of Scooter Libby was because the President and Vice President broke the law. The greatest organized crime family is sadly to say is the United States Government.
America is a pool of filth that is so broken that it is a model of how not to run a country and if it is not cleansed of its corporate and Zionist lobby, it must be destroyed to save all of mankind. Disgusting!
Neocons and those who support them are like the retarded kid next door that puts his finger up his butt, then pulls it out and asks people to smell it.
If you like the fact US soldiers invaded a foriegn country based on a stack of lies, and the residents are willing to fight to the death to paint GI brains on the wall, then pull out your brown fingers and wave them here for all to see.
people love bringing up the clinton blowjob every time the bush administration does something bonkers like this.. overall clinton was a better president.. i mean.. clinton still has political pull almost 8 years out of office.. face it repukes its who are you going to vote for? dragqueen guliani? the mormon? you complain about a blowjob but you have a dragqueen as a front runner.. republicans should have been aborted at birth.. go read a bible
All of this belies their tendency to make a good, likable first impression. Psychopaths have a superficial charm about them, enabled by a willingness to say anything without concern for accuracy or truth. This extends into their pathological lying and willingness to con and manipulate others for personal gain or amusement.
It's just sad, the way so many Americans blindly supported Bush after 9/11. And like Oblermann said, he betrayed that trust and used it for his political agenda.
Im sure if Keith were at the position back when Bill Clinton were president, he would have been on him like his is Bush now. You can say all you want about how this is just a liberal bashing a concervative president, but you have to admit that he is right and everything he has said here is true.
Google "The Power of Nightmares" from the highly respected BBC covers how the evil of militant muslims and the Bushie NEOCONS got started. The NEOCON guru is Leo Strauss. Strauss came to America on a Rockefeller grant at the request of Carl Schmitt. Schmitt was the lawyer for Fritz Thyssen and...Adolf Hitler. Prescott Bush laundered Nazi money for Thyssen. Look it up. It is factual.
keith olbermann's logic, clarity and grasp of history are impressive. we need a president at least as intelligent as keith. none of the present candidates (of either party) seem to meet that standard. i am very afraid for our country. the damage of the devious and obtuse bush administration is immeasurable, and perhaps irreparable.
Keith Olbermann is a filthy wicked person? WHAT? Aren't you neo cons even capable of a cogent argument to back-up your raving and where do you get off defineing what a liberal is? Wake-up, It's the 21st Century now. Progressive people don't fear the "liberal" label today. I wake-up every day and say LIBERAL 10 times just to feel better about the changes coming to America. Election day is right around the corner and I can hardly wait. RE-ELECT PRESIDENT GORE, this time lets try a smart President
Wow, those that say stuff like "This Dude Is A Joke" and "Liberals make smoke screens because they themselves are wicked" is probably just Karl Rove on two different accounts.
Democrats are a coalition of people who want to utilize the government for the purpose of making morality illegal through the redefinition of it, and the making of laws that make morality illegal. Liberals throw smoke screens out to pretend the innocent are guilty of what they themselves are.
How can anyone trust any one in a congress that allows a president to destroy the constitution and the American peoples freedoms and rights to justice they were sworn to protect. This government has killed thousands of innocent children, mothers,fathers brothers and sisters.Plus thousands of our own young men and women.There are criminal acts of commission and omission By saying and doing nothing You are just as guilty as the ones doing it.How do you live with your self.
The intelligence committee of congress has cited this operative plame and her husband for lieing to congress. She wasn't a secret spy,in the record of agency she didn't carry the Big letter C that all secret agent have. The information they gave had errors in it. They were first Democratic operative and work for Clinton. Newspapers will not tell the people of this. Oberman kept it a secret.
I was appalled that Bush pardoned that traitor Libby. Outing a CIA operative is one of the most treasonous act you could commit Other than murder, treason is the only other offense in which you could be sentenced to murder. It's fitting when the act endangered the lives of innocent people. Come to think of it isn't that what is happening in Iraq. So, Bush's pardon, though incredible, is par for the course from his administration.
Mr.Olbermann has to be the only mainstream newscaster out there with the guts of a real journalist. any newscaster at any of the big 4 networks who sees and hears Mr.Olbermann and compares what there saying on the air to the truth KO is speaking has to be ashamed to call themselves a journalist.
A-The people pardoned by Clinton had committed crimes that had nothing to do with Clinton's administation. Every President pardons criminals.However!Scooter Libby committed a crime at the request of Bush and Cheney, and while working in the white house.This makes Bush's commutation of his sentence unjust and despicable. Kind of like 'go commit this crime for us, but don't worry, there'll be no real punishment, we'll make sure of it'.
Do you know his crime Nichole? Do a little more homework and find out the Jurys comments regarding what and why they convicted Scooter, you may learn something.
Scooter Libby was CONVICTED by a jury and sentenced by a federal judge. Bush showed his contempt for our judicial system by overturning a sentence decided by a grand jury and federal judge. It doesn't matter what the Jury said, he was CONVICTED!
He was CONVICTED of not remembering where he heard something, she was not covert. The Jury thought it was a farce and anyone that understands what truly went on Dem or Repub knows it was a witch hunt. Clinton lied under oath and was held in contempt of court. How much time did he serve again?
Witch hunt. Exactly what happened to Clinton, he lied about a blowjob. He was acquitted by the senate. Acquitted means not guilty. CONVICTED by a federal jury means guilty! Rebub or Dem knows that much.
What does Clinton's legacy have to do with anything? This is a discussion about Libby's pardon (or commution of sentance, whatever) Bush supporters no longer have a leg to stand on, so you live in the past. Sweet comeback, man.
Bush has pardoned the least amount of people in history of the presidency. Compare how many Clinton had pardoned after 6.5 years in office. Check out how many convicted felons/drug dealers that your hero Clinton pardoned. Where is the outrage, there never was any from you America hating liberals. You only see and hear what you want. Clinton was an embarassment to the country and still is.
He pardoned someone who did a crime on HIS BEHALF. Whether or not Libby was THE guy who did it, he was CONVICTED. Clinton could have pardoned a million criminals, but never one who committed a crime on HIS BEHALF. I love America. Bush is an embarrasment to this country, now and forever.But he's worked his magic on fear-mongering conservatives.
Your a moron. How did Libby not remembering where he heard the name of a non-covert FBI agent help Bush? Do you even know what your talking about? Do you not know that your Liberal idols have exposed multiple covert and non covert agents? They cried freedom of info.
She wasn't an FBI agent, she was a undercover CIA agent. Maybe you should do some reading as well. Im a moron? Is that the best you have at this point? You sound exactly like your ignorant hero Bush. The minute he faces scrutiny he turns into a baby.
Just as Bush said in his press conference this morning about the Libby pardon "now we're going to move on." Coward, Bush can't face the scrutiny that Clinton did.
Continue to do your homework. I may have mistyped, but I guess you didn't know that 98% of the pardons, their families were Clinton campaign contributors. I'm sure the Illegal campaign $ he received from China for our Nuclear technology by far trumped the $ from the drug dealers, rapists, bank robbers and money launderers Clinton pardoned. I guess you didn't compare how many people Clinton pardoned after 6.5 years in office.
That's your only regret alacoboy? You don't regret that Bush has mismanaged this war of choice on a colossal scale. I didn't vote for Bush, but I too hoped he would bring back some dignity to the office of the Presidency. That hope has been gone for some time now.
Bravo Kieth!!! I applauded and whistled loudly when I saw this on MSMBC. Thank god for Keith Olberman and Air America. Nothing is more American than Truth, and this is a dish they serve so well. F*&K Bush and any party before country nazi's who follow him over the cliff. I say have a nice fall...
Please.... John Wayne, JOHN WAYNE??? He pulled up John Wayne. This guys hates everything the Republicans do, EVERYTHING!!! He is not impartial, or educated on his opinion. He's a partisan hack pretending to be a journalist.
Oh, and asxnotaxe, if you really think that picking up a gun and traing to go to war makes you a better man than I or anyone else, you are deeply and sadly mistaken. The day is coming when we 'non-serving liberals' will beat your swords into plowshares at the behest of our Lord.
"They did it too." And 'they' are Democrats. And that's good enough for you?
You, like so many other moron/Republicans, confuse dissent with a power-mad dictator in the making in the guise of a Republican president with an attack against Republicans. Has it ever occured to you that maybe Kieth just doesn't like tyranny? In this very video clip that you clearly didn't listen to, he decries a Democratic permanent mojority IN THE SAME breath in which he decried a Republican one.
Keith Olberman seemingly has forgotten the 211 presidential pardons Clinton granted in the last 9 weeks in office, and the 121 on his final day of office? Olberman is a windbag. Listening to him wax philosophic about democracy and war makes me puke. I am a US soldier, and don't need some liberal toad eulogizing my service....we are volunteers. So just shut the fuck up and sleep quietly under the blanket of freedom and security provided by better men than yourselves, non serving liberals.
asknotaxe, you are living proof that soldiers can be morons too. Your counter-argument to Dubya wiping his ass with the Constitution is "Slick willie did it too!"? That's it?!?! That's all you've got? And it satisfies you?
My brother was fond of quoting someone old and famous by saying, fairly often, "It is better to remain silent and appear foolish, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt." You sir, need to take that to heart.
I agree that Clinton had some problematic pardons, but did Mark Rich or one of those other people work for the Clinton White House? Did they cover up lies that led to a war that killed tens of thousands of people? Did they commit their crimes in the service of Clinton's VP?
Heres something for you to chew on. Several Generals have resigned over the handeling of the Iraq war. George Bush says he listens to his Generals but that only seems to be true when they tell him that hes doing a good job. Maybe there arent many liberals serving right now, but its only because warmongers trivialize and alianate them out of the service
The Democrat vs. Republican issue is moot. The same corporate money and politics rule both major parties, and none of them care about you or I. Those who think Hillary or Barak are going to save you are sorely mistaken - both voted for the war and voted for the recent Immigration/Amnesty/ID Act bill that the Senate shot down on the votes of REPUBLICANS! The immigration bill was the most un-American piece of legislature since the Patriot Act. Open your eyes, folks, and God help us all.
When will all the 'Republicans' with their heads in the sand realize that George W. Bush does not support them or care about them? Wake up America! Our administration is making us the laughing stock of the world.
If you're not outraged by this you are nothing more than an ostrich with its head in the sand. ANYONE who isn't pissed about this is brainwashed AND ignorant. A four time convincted felon MUST serve time in a society governed by the rule of law. This move was PURELY selfish and sets a VERY dangerous prescedent.
History will not only judge Bush/Cheney - it will judge Americans for being so fat, stupid, lazy, intellectually bankrupt and religiously fundamentalist as to vote him in in the first place!
History will wonder how Americans can have been so dumb - twice!
Amazingly powerful! I was sobbing by the end of it; and sick to my stomach by its truth and accuracy. If only Bush had an iota of the principles exhibited by Olbermann, we'd be in a much better place as a nation right now.
Knock out for KO. Brilliant Broadcast Journalism. Media Responsibility at its Best! The 4th Estate is not dead. Keith Olbermann's commentary parallels Edward R. Murrow's visceral attack against Senator McCarthy's Communist witch-hunts. Democracy Demands Dissent. KO more than proved himself worthy to use Edward R. Murrow's Signoff Quote, "Good Night, And Good News!" KO brought back my faith in being an American.
if msnbc is willing to put olbermann on to spew his hateful and obviously partisan soliloquy to the American people, without even a contrasting opinion, it goes to show why no one watches them.
This is yet another left wing agenda setter, using his polarization to dispense his hateful message. Shame on MSNBC to allow this to happen.
Olbermann is right! And there is only ONE prez. candidate who he should vote: Ron Paul! Unforunately, Olberman hasn´t said anything about Paul. I hope he will! Visit my channel for more information! P A U L 2 0 0 8
Olbermann is interesting and usually right (and he definitely is here), but he needs to learn the art of brevity. I lost interest in his rage and sanctimoniousness about 5 minutes into it.
If people hate 'shrub', it's for a reason; he's done exactly what Olbermann has said he did, and more. Anyone who supports bush now is either 'ideologically' blind, or shares his moral corruption.
I believe they hate bush because of the reams and reams of information that have come out supporting Olberman diatribe. Approximately 20 % of the population still support bush and would if he shot Ruth Ginsberg on the steps of the Supreme court. They are blinded to the harm he has done this country and will never admit their mistake in electing thsi fool.
ALL Hail King George!This is The True America :CORRUPT,RACIST,GREEDY,VIOLENT,ARROGANT,HYPOCRITICAL,PERVERTED and For Sale...George Bush is The PresidentThat You Wanted,,,,,And Deserved! Happy 4th of July!

Keith Olbermann has no problem complaining about President Bush's partisanship but he doesn't seem to recognize President Obama's. Obama routinely attacks Republicans and doesn't invite them to any of his "meetings." Of course, he seems like he wants them to show up now that he's lost Congress. Poor Olbermann. America laughs at him.

Well I'm saying that our safety wasn't just a coincidence. Our safety and security was directly related to the measures that President Bush and many Republicans (and some Democrats) took to protect us.
kgj08 2 years ago
I don't buy that for one minute. There is no evidence the measures worked. Al-Qaida is regrouping, and furthermore terrorists leave long pauses in between major attacks. Therefore you have no evidence whatsoever proving that torture made us safer, or that the fascist outing of a CIA agent for dissent made us safer. Your side should be in prison.
kclymer1 2 years ago
lol, the evidence is that we haven't been attacked dumbass. We've stopped at least 9 different attacks in this country, maybe more that we were never told about.
Okay, and about the "fascist outing of a CIA agent"....
She wasn't an undercover agent. She didn't need protected. And it's already been proven that no one from the Bush administration did that. Additionally, she wasn't the one that expressed dissent. That was her husband... lol, all your facts are so wrong.

"non sequitur", which translated means: It doesn´t follow.
You are ignoring all other possible explainations, why you haven't been attacked.
BTW if I were you, I would thank every president BEFORE 9/11 for keeping america safe for however long that was. And blame Bush for not preventing 9/11.

Bush didnt do a goddamn thing for this country, the laws of probability preclude your viewpoint that whatever illigitimate war that a president starts can be likened to keeping anyone safe... It didnt keep the thousands of americans that have died in iraq safe...it didnt keep the tens of thousands of dead Iraqi nationals safe...(they're people too, they count). it didnt keep us safe. To think otherwise is to have a completely BASELESS viewpoint.

i always thought that this power to pardon was for people who because of technicalities got jailed or convicted of crimes they couldn't avoid paying for.
-someone defending his family, killing a burglar and going to jail for murder
-someone killing the murderer of his entire family and having already spent say 20 years in jail
etc.
not something you use to get your friends out of a hot spot so they can attend your cocktail parties.

The only reason Scooter Libby was convicted of a crime is because he accidentally said that he learned that Valerie Plame worked for the CIA from Tim Russert. He had zero motivation for lying to investigators. He was only trying to help the investigation. And besides, Plame wasn't even a covert agent for the CIA!! So even if Scooter Libby did reveal her name (which we all know now that he didn't), it wouldn't have been a crime. You've already ruined the man's life, what more do you want?
kgj08 3 years ago
Scooter Libby outed a CIA agent because her husband did not tell the republic party what it wanted that Iraq was about of get nuclear wepons for africa so Scooter Libby commited a crime to punish a man who did the right thing.

uhhhhhh no... that isn't true...
not even Nancy Pelosi thinks that's true... not even Barack Obama thinks that's true.... everybody now knows that Scooter Libby in fact DIDN'T release the name. He simply made a mistake and said he heard the name from Tim Russert, when he must have heard it from someone else. It was obviously just an honest mistake, because he had no motivation to lie. If he really had to lie, he just wouldn't have said anything.

JUSTICE. Plaame was "a covert operations officer for the CIA"...those are her words. ROVE is the one who belongs in jail, but Libby is the one who took the blame for the administration.

The sentence-by-sentence speaking skills of George W. Bush are deteriorating. This may be due to presenile dementia. Bush may or may not still be drinking heavily. Bush was arrested for disorderly conduct. Bush was arrested for stealing. Bush was also arrested for a serious crime—driving under the influence of alcohol. All in all, Bush is a severely mentally ill individual. Bush should be locked up.

Your ignorance baffles. "Polite society" is an expression meaning any group of people who are educated and tolerant. It's not about any particular society.

And, BTW, you can't "collectively say" and you can't be "collectiviely polite". Dumb American!

Jesus Christ, I know what it means you nitwit. The point I was trying to make is using the expression here is pointless because it is in fact a misnomer. There is no 'polite society.' If you meant educated, tolerant people, then, again, tell me where you can find these in a societal context. I've traveled quite a bit and I can't seem to find any. For example, you are coming off somewhat educated, but not very tolerant. Your stereotyping of republicans is ignorance itself.

Interestingly enough, I don't think you understand how liberalism works in America. Being intellectually thirsty and educated is largely a republican ideal in this country. The liberals would like to believe education is owed, when in fact, and I'm sure you would agree, it is earned. Perhaps liberals are different in pseudo-European countries like Canada, but in America they are not like you my friend. And they most certainly are not 'tolerant'.

You have to rebuild yourself from the inside out because you can't stay emotionally crippled all your life.

I call attention to your poor spelling and grammar as indicative of your lack of basic education because language is the premium tool for discussion in polite society and you have a long way to go to master that tool.

so, simply my answer is:
A-The people pardoned by Clinton had committed crimes that had nothing to do with Clinton's administation. Every President pardons criminals.However!Scooter Libby committed a crime at the request of Bush and Cheney, and while working in the white house.This makes Bush's commutation of his sentence unjust and despicable. Kind of like 'go commit this crime for us, but don't worry, there'll be no real punishment, we'll make sure of it'.

Scooter Libby was CONVICTED by a jury and sentenced by a federal judge. Bush showed his contempt for our judicial system by overturning a sentence decided by a grand jury and federal judge. It doesn't matter what the Jury said, he was CONVICTED!
nichole3232 4 years ago
He was CONVICTED of not remembering where he heard something, she was not covert. The Jury thought it was a farce and anyone that understands what truly went on Dem or Repub knows it was a witch hunt. Clinton lied under oath and was held in contempt of court. How much time did he serve again?

Witch hunt. Exactly what happened to Clinton, he lied about a blowjob. He was acquitted by the senate. Acquitted means not guilty. CONVICTED by a federal jury means guilty! Rebub or Dem knows that much.

Bush has pardoned the least amount of people in history of the presidency. Compare how many Clinton had pardoned after 6.5 years in office. Check out how many convicted felons/drug dealers that your hero Clinton pardoned. Where is the outrage, there never was any from you America hating liberals. You only see and hear what you want. Clinton was an embarassment to the country and still is.
tony50195 4 years ago
He pardoned someone who did a crime on HIS BEHALF. Whether or not Libby was THE guy who did it, he was CONVICTED. Clinton could have pardoned a million criminals, but never one who committed a crime on HIS BEHALF. I love America. Bush is an embarrasment to this country, now and forever.But he's worked his magic on fear-mongering conservatives.
nichole3232 4 years ago
Your a moron. How did Libby not remembering where he heard the name of a non-covert FBI agent help Bush? Do you even know what your talking about? Do you not know that your Liberal idols have exposed multiple covert and non covert agents? They cried freedom of info.

She wasn't an FBI agent, she was a undercover CIA agent. Maybe you should do some reading as well. Im a moron? Is that the best you have at this point? You sound exactly like your ignorant hero Bush. The minute he faces scrutiny he turns into a baby.
Just as Bush said in his press conference this morning about the Libby pardon "now we're going to move on." Coward, Bush can't face the scrutiny that Clinton did.
nichole3232 4 years ago
Continue to do your homework. I may have mistyped, but I guess you didn't know that 98% of the pardons, their families were Clinton campaign contributors. I'm sure the Illegal campaign $ he received from China for our Nuclear technology by far trumped the $ from the drug dealers, rapists, bank robbers and money launderers Clinton pardoned. I guess you didn't compare how many people Clinton pardoned after 6.5 years in office.

When will all the 'Republicans' with their heads in the sand realize that George W. Bush does not support them or care about them? Wake up America! Our administration is making us the laughing stock of the world.

If you're not outraged by this you are nothing more than an ostrich with its head in the sand. ANYONE who isn't pissed about this is brainwashed AND ignorant. A four time convincted felon MUST serve time in a society governed by the rule of law. This move was PURELY selfish and sets a VERY dangerous prescedent.

And they got upset about Clinton's "BJ"? How can we continue to let this President spit on the Constitution?
Why does he continue to get away with this?????
Folks need to quit picking a side like it is a football game, and see who is really the bad guy.

Bush said he would pursue whoever leaked the name of Valarie Plame...
He didn't say anything about commuting or the upcoming pardon for Libby!
This administration is going to get awy with murder for the next 18 months unless something is done now
Impeach!!!

History will not only judge Bush/Cheney - it will judge Americans for being so fat, stupid, lazy, intellectually bankrupt and religiously fundamentalist as to vote him in in the first place!
History will wonder how Americans can have been so dumb - twice!

Amazingly powerful! I was sobbing by the end of it; and sick to my stomach by its truth and accuracy. If only Bush had an iota of the principles exhibited by Olbermann, we'd be in a much better place as a nation right now.

Knock out for KO. Brilliant Broadcast Journalism. Media Responsibility at its Best! The 4th Estate is not dead. Keith Olbermann's commentary parallels Edward R. Murrow's visceral attack against Senator McCarthy's Communist witch-hunts. Democracy Demands Dissent. KO more than proved himself worthy to use Edward R. Murrow's Signoff Quote, "Good Night, And Good News!" KO brought back my faith in being an American.

This is not partisanship this is truth. Finally 10 min of sense and sanity after two terms of greed and evil.

if msnbc is willing to put olbermann on to spew his hateful and obviously partisan soliloquy to the American people, without even a contrasting opinion, it goes to show why no one watches them.
This is yet another left wing agenda setter, using his polarization to dispense his hateful message. Shame on MSNBC to allow this to happen.

So we elect a Republican to fix a Republican's problems. Get off my YouTube, and NEVER come back.

Olbermann is interesting and usually right (and he definitely is here), but he needs to learn the art of brevity. I lost interest in his rage and sanctimoniousness about 5 minutes into it.

Olbermann is suffering from the same disease as Rosie Odennel and other ultra-liberals. They let thier hate for Bush cloud their thinking.

If people hate 'shrub', it's for a reason; he's done exactly what Olbermann has said he did, and more. Anyone who supports bush now is either 'ideologically' blind, or shares his moral corruption.

I believe they hate bush because of the reams and reams of information that have come out supporting Olberman diatribe. Approximately 20 % of the population still support bush and would if he shot Ruth Ginsberg on the steps of the Supreme court. They are blinded to the harm he has done this country and will never admit their mistake in electing thsi fool.
