Olbermann: George W. Bush Is Back!

[ifithrewmyguitaroutt]

Wow, I was hoping to see some people echoing a point or two of Olbermann's clip up here, but instead I'm seeing a bunch of people bashing Democrats, liberals, and especially Olbermann. There are some things you really need to understand: you're wrong about economics, social issues, and history in general. No, Bush wasn't responsible for 9/11, but I do think he destroyed this country. Read a history text book in 20 years and, when you find it objectively proving that he did, y'all can suck it.

[philh37]

It's time for the AMA to recognize BDS as an official disease. BDS (Bush Derangement Synrdome) is real and there is strong evidence that Keith Olberman suffers from a severe case of BDS. One of of the tell-tale signs of BDS is the belief by sufferers that George W. Bush planned the 9/11 attacks, something Loughner believed to be true. Indeed 33% of Democrats believe that Bush planned the 9/11 attacks. BDS has reached epidemic proportions!!! Let's get BDS sufferers the help they need.

[mm28la]

I'm so sick of these liberals.

[crazybread1337]

"no president has seen more civilian deaths from a terrorist attack than Bush"

Oh yeah! cuz remind me how many times have we been attacked on our homeground by terrorists. only one, dumbass! so that kinda invalidates your logic olbermann

[YouGotJEWD]

LOL... this fuck stick has the worst ratings on cable "news". I wonder why, he is still on Bush bashing, the most over-played card in history.

[martind586]

President Bush has presided over the largest overall increase in inflation-adjusted federal spending since Lyndon B. Johnson. Even after excluding spending on defense and homeland security, Bush is still the biggest-spending president in 30 years. His 2006 budget doesnt cut enough spending to change his place in history, either.

[kvjhedfbv]

Obama is creating more debt in one year than the previous 4 Presidents created in 28 years!

Obama is the worst President in US history!

[fluff125]

Hilarious! Limbaugh's audience is 31 times larger than Olbermann's!

[Meesh60612]

"Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind."

LOL (Amen GW)

[boprn]

how does anybody watch this fucking moron

[NastevilsBack]

Nielsen numbers for Friday, June 19th

FOX NEWS OReilly

Demo 469,000 Total 2,149,000

MSNBC Olbermann

Demo 245,000 Total 784,000

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

Fifty Percent of the Population has an IQ over 100. Therefore O'Reilly has the whole of the folks with lower IQs plus a few moderately intelligent people. That simple. If you think.. you end up sound more like Olbermann.

[NastevilsBack]

"If you think you end up sound more like Olbermann."

You should have written - "If you think you end up soundING more like Olbermann." Before you run down the intelligence of others you should check your own grammer you Trust Fund Brat.

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

It was a comment written in haste. I speak 4 different languages so sue me. English is my third language. Nonetheless those statistics I posted are factual. The lack of reasoning and evidence is what you get when watching or listening too so called "conservative" media. Are you familiar with the Malmedy massacre?

[NastevilsBack]

Factual? Give me evidence not just your opinion. Malmedy Massacre, yes, you brats act so outraged at Billo for what he said about it when you all couldn't give a shit about something that happened during World War II in the first place.

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

I'll make you do the work (a simple google search). Search what portion of the population has an IQ over 100.. it will come up as 50%. Then search those above 120 and it should come up as 25% and over 140 is 10%. Billo pulls more numbers. Using simple logic and historical data based on the inaccuracies on his show would indicate that segments of the population with lower IQs migrate to his show. PS, I do care about history as it teaches us valuable lessons. I don't like repeating mistakes.

[NastevilsBack]

What a cop out, you little snot. You, like so many on this site, make broad assumptions about the people with whom you disagree and when pressed to back up your claims you use broad assumptions instead of concrete facts. Are you also suggesting that Obama supporters, who are in the majority today, are also not very smart based on your "calculations?"

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

I gave you access to the means of obtaining the information. You became upset because you know it be factual. Now as for Obama, Liberals never supported him.. democrats did (by his word). Now that his actions do not meet his words you are seeing many of them turn their backs on Obama (his poll numbers do indicate this). His stance on FISA, Healthcare reform, Patriot Act, Afghanistan and Iraq are not supported by Liberals.

[NastevilsBack]

You STILL haven't given me one shred of evidence that people who watch O'Reilly aren't as smart as people who watch Olbermann. And when I press you about Obama you flee the arguement disowning him for your own shallow purposes and then you make ANOTHER broad assumption, this time about McCain supporters. And you decide to change the context of the debate from "smart" to liberal. You don't like it when people challenge your world view do you?

[mcalvert1000]

people that watch olbermann talk like pompous douchebags, wear glasses like pompous douchebags and comb their greasy, slimy, faggoty hair like a pompus douche, just like olbermann

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

McCain was a worse choice then Obama though (have you seen the average McCain supporter during the election... sheesh).

[PierreElliottTrudeau]

Might I also add that the popular vote was 52 Percent to 46 Percent. These numbers do work within the 50 percent of American having an IQ over 100. But I don't see it holding much ground when one factors in that elections in the USA don't have a very large voter turnout.

[walkermydawg]

The ratings that bilo get are nothing more than pluperfect proof that Bill Maher is correct in maintaining that Americans are stupid.

[mcalvert1000]

thats funny because bill oreilly actually tells the truth whereas olbermann just sits around and whines about his hurting vagina all day. your math doesnt add up chief.

[QueensNewYork7]

you really are a dummy aren't you, damn why didn't your mother get an abortion.

[mcalvert1000]

because shes not a phony liberal

[QueensNewYork7]

I'm pretty sure that eventually you'll kill yourself so we'll just call that a late term abortion.

[walkermydawg]

You are right about bill, he told the truth about Malmedy, times 2

[solargesture]

sounds like your vage's hurting

[johnedwards1968]

@NastevilsBack Why does O'Reilly do so badly in the Demographic ratings? Can only 20% of his viewers really be in between the ages of 20 and 55? Why is it only children and old farts watch O'Reilly?

I've always wondered why people who quote these numbers are trying to defend Fox News. It seems clear that people who work for a living don't watch it.

[NastevilsBack]

Olbermann is now in 3rd place behind Nancy Grace. Ha!

[phlbrck88]

Olbermann your a fucking pussy. When are you going to die a horrible death, like cancer, or aids, or something that makes you suffer.

[circlestream]

you better be careful wishing things like that on others because you may be bringing them upon yourself :(

[steverob79]

Bush and Cheney need to back off and watch how it's done. Obama hasn't been as great as I was hoping, but he's still doing a much better job than Bush/Cheney or any other righty could ever do. Bush and Cheney putting in their two cents serves no purpose and is only a distraction for those doing the real work.

[ed2kou1]

Yeah BHO does a good job, bashing America. While he kisses Muslim ASS!

[HangInOutInCa]

KO is an idiot. Blaming Bush for 9/11 is stupid, blaming Clinton is no better. Terrorists will not announce their plans, the intelligence & law enforcement community can only do so much. We are now doing what we can to keep/kill the terrorists in their homeland. Yes I said keep/kill them. They need to pay the greatest cost, their life, if they come to the U.S. & commit terrorists acts. The only jail they should get is while we are interrogating them. Enough of this hand holding crap.

[trekfan92]

You jackasses think you could do better? 9/11 could have happened on anyone's watch. And Clinton made little effort to capture these terrorists back in the 90s. And KeithO is an ignorant snob. Can't believe this guy has his own show.

[eqsmooth]

The only reason Olbermann has this "post" is because FOX owns the minds of so many illiterate, unlettered, less skeptical people in the world. Is it Rupert Murdoch THE ONE that will bring on The Rapture? Someone has to balance out Beck, Hannity and O'Reilly. Air America can't do it, Al Franken can't and unfortunately, Keith can't do it either. He's really just a guy who knows a lot about baseball.

[Agent1W]

FIGHT'S ON!!! Bush vs Obama!

Let's get out some whips, nice robes, and a crown of thorns!!!

[frellthat]

I don't know where you're getting your information, but it's a fact that Bush had fewer votes than Gore in 2000. He lost the popular vote and the Supreme Court handed him the election anyway.

[CardCrazed1]

Presidents are not elected by popular vote, so the Supreme Court "handed" him nothing.

[ed2kou1]

No the freedom of information act showed Bush still won. There have been a few left wing groups, and non partisan groups that have gone back and have done the recount. The only argument you can have, say it's fishey that his brother was governor. Thank god W kept us safe. Damn I miss him! BHO is destroying our great country!

[frellthat]

Bush kept us safe? WTF are you talking about? The worst terrorist attack in our country's history happened on his watch.

[shadowreality5]

And that was Bush's fault? I bet you didn't know that 23 recorded terrorists attacks were prevented during his 8 years in office. I know he wasn't the best president, but he wasn't pussy like Obama.

[frellthat]

August 6, 2001, the State Department informed Bush that Bin Laden was about to attack. The briefing even mentioned the World Trade Center by name. Yes it happened on Bush's watch and he didn't "keep us safe". Stop making excuses for him.

[shadowreality5]

Making excuses for him? I didn't even like him. I agree he should have acted on the notice, but afterwards he knuckled down on security. He even created a new cabinet position, Director of Homeland Security to help keep Americans safe. He also buffed on security on airlines and patrols surrounding cities.

[chuk451]

could u list those 23 attacks that were prevented?? Dates, places, the arrests...

something on the order of facts and not the vauge and undefined mumbo jumbo which is the republican party.

[shadowreality5]

Don't be lazy and look on google.

[shadowreality5]

However, here are a few:

-2005 Los Angeles bombing

-2007 John F. Kennedy Airport

-Members of the Virginia Jihad Network (2005)

-Prosecution of Kevin James (2005)

-2007 Fort Dix

There are more that you can find if you look online.

[Yourdeadmeat69]

1st attack "blame" is snapshot rationale. Bush didn't "cause" 9/11. But the compensatory countereffect of "winning" war on terrorism, was unwinable as long as we continue to meddle in a MidEast which pales in importance to real enemies like N. Korea.

If we were run on alternate energy, we'd never have invaded Iraq. If we had found Bin Laden in 2002, instead of turning war into an ongoing repeat business, we'd be one step closer to world peace.

I'm sick of the whole mess.

[EradicateLiberalism]

What a douche Olberdork and the rest of you liberals are... we would've been attacked who knows how many times if it weren't for President Bush. If Olberdouche was president, I'm sure he would've prevented 9/11 and I'm sure it didn't have anything to do with the Clinton administration ignoring previous terrorist bombings (Trade Center) and attacks, leading to the the 9/11 disaster, plus the restrictions the intelligence agencies had from communicating with each other. You liberals are pathetic.

[robertojaen]

had Bush paid attention to his Presidential Daily Briefings, and not demoted Richard Clarke, 911 would be just a theory

[ed2kou1]

Al Queda determined to attack in Us. That's very vague, what was W suppossed to do? He did the best he could, he handled 9-11, just fine. Thanks W for keeping us safe. Don't let your hatred for W, get in the way of facts! Makes you look foolish!

[Smackdown5]

Does 9/11 ring a fucking bell to you you hypocrite piece of shit!? 9/11 HAPPENED ON BUSH'S WATCH!!!

[steverob79]

What was W supposed to do?! Well, maybe for starters he could have taken those intelligence breifings more seriously. They tried to tell him that it looked like Al Quida was planning something. The terrorists knew it would be easier to sucker punch us while Bush was in office. And no, he didn't handle 9/11 "just fine". Invading a country that had nothing to do with it and throwing away thousands of troops lives is not my idea of handling it. Knowing the facts is what fuels my hatred for Bush.

[ed2kou1]

Ok according to you, W did nothing to prevent 9-11. Then he gets a intelligence report from Britian, that says Iraq is getting wmds, remember Clinton, Kerry all thought Saddam had wmd's as well. Now what is it. 1 Bush did nothing 9-11 is his fault. 2 W did something to stop Iraq, based on a intell report. YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TO! Don't let the facts get in the way, of your hatred for W!

[chuk451]

i think its u whose whining about throwing ur cake at the wall and now complain u have none. 9/11 was an inside job.

[ed2kou1]

9/11 was an inside job.  CRAZY! Nothing more to say.

[ed2kou1]

Your absolutley 100% Correct!

[rafjo82]

God bless and long live George W. Bush!

and, God Bless America!

[rafjo82]

....yawn....lets see, Bush gives a speech. Olbermann doesnt like the man and disagrees with what he said and calls him crazy. Olbermann then discusses the 'terrible' former president's speech with someone who agrees with everything he says.

Its no wonder Fox has more viewers than this liberal network. Long live Fox news where at least we have some debating and back-and-forth.

[defthricedayverge]

I dislike bush...strongly. But i cut him some slack for the my pet goat thing. What can he do at that moment?

I guess reasonably, he could of said "Im sorry, but i have to leave..."

[vandergoose]

Oh Keith if you only had the viewership... If people would only get on board and be in favor of growing the government and raising taxes then you'd have the audience.

[newaira50]

Iran's president may not like the United States but i bet he learn from us. 2000 and 2004 doesn't ring a bell to anyone? Bush team did the same thing ahmindijahad did in Iran. the only thing difference is we didn't protest against the administration but everyone knew bush stole the elections. the 08 election would have been different because if McCain won then People would have been protesting and rioting, in my opinion

[newaira50]

Obviously it's Dick Cheney whispering in bush's ear. I bet George Bush don't give a fuck about obama's policies. Cheney has to be telling bush to go out and talk about how much he disagrees with obama. Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz were the only two out there defending the past administration policies. It really don't matter though because if bush start's to do interviews like Cheney, accountability will be inevitable. Bush has slip -ups, "oops didn't mean to say that"

[mball5150]

FDR get critized for pearl harbor...Not from you KEITH or any liberal for that mattter. The only time you hint at it is when you can use it as a segway to blaming Bush for the 9/11 attacks. The reason 9/11 happened was because a lack of communication between the FBI and CIA which was thanks to the Clinton appointed Jamie Gorelick.

[tstiglic]

Fuck U ALL! Bush not only lead us through the biggest attack on our country, (which he "inherited" from Clinton) the biggest natural disaster in our countrys history, and resided over the most prosperous period in american history. Obama on the other hand has done nothing but spend more than any other person in the history of the world, which still cant bring us out of a recession. Fuck OBAMA!!!!!!!!!

[robertmike57]

Bush was an incompetent tool who allowed the terrorists to attack.

[CardCrazed1]

robertmike, you misspelled Clinton.

[ilovesteelydan]

Who was president when 9/11 occurred Cardcrazed? On August 6, 2001, bush ignored a plan by Osama to attack the us. Look it up, if you aren't scared.

[3star2nr]

dude you have time arguing with idiots.

Hes a bush supporter Nuff said....
