Before you watch this:
Be over eighteen. Be somewhere to the left of McCain politically. Those who can drink I suggest you imbibe one of your faves before watching, and use the second to take a sip anytime you would normally say “WTF?”
Because the last time I made the kind of bizzare, World Net Daily, connective conspiracy tissue out of absolutely nothing that Glen Beck does it was fall 1991 and I was experiencing some truly scary and mindfcuking side effects from my chemo medication.
I admit, Olbermann goes a bit slobbering and wild eyed here. I admit that.
I also admit that I love the detail of this dissection.
And, Keith reminds me again he’s a sci fi geek. “Don’t get on that ship!”
Le Sigh.
Watch this and enjoy.
Keith Olbermann: Officially worth a gross of yelling teabaggers
Okay yeah, he’s my crush…Linky to lenghthy healthcare special comment here [unable to embed, sorry] (Update here’s part one on Youtube I’ll find part two and post that tomorrow….
Part 2
Some are peeved that he has decided to reverse a June decision and begin to hammer O’Reilly again….
1. It’s his show, he can do what he wants.
2. Bashing O’Reilly is [mostly] fine by me. [I am astounded that O'Reilly has taken the rational position re: Obama's birth cert...a sure sign of the Apocalypse.]
Hat tip to a longtime friend
Not linking ‘cuz he knows who he is…and prefers his anonymity.
and also to Keith Olbermann who mentioned this briefly on Countdown last night [Does he *have* to keep being so appealing and unatainable at the same time? I wish he'd turn out to be a real jerk...so I could stop wishing]
A London club banned a woman on crutches from entering the venue. The manufactured reason was concern that the crutches might be used as weapons.
Bu!! and Sh!t.
‘Weapons’ my shrinking but still oversized @ss.
By that logic, any expert in martial arts cannot be allowed into the club either, because their mobility devices, their limbs are deadly weapons…..
In my opinion, the real reason was that *someone* thought they were the Arbiter of Cool a la Studio 54, and that crutches *automatically* assign this woman to Those who will Never Be Hip Enough to Party Here.
From the article:
Disabled people face many hurdles and to deny a young person access to a nightclub, effectively because of their disability, creates yet another barrier between her and her friends. While they party, she is meant to sit it out.”
She went right to her MP with this.
Good for her…and if any other UK’ers with impairments manage to get into that club….
Party with her and for her all night long….
The club states in the article that there had been two previous violent incidents in the club and that based on legal advice they had banned this patron, but the tone and phrasing makes it clear *her* banning from the club is *unrelated* to any previous violent incidents, and in fact she had been admitted to the club on two previous occasions.
This and the Jena Six in the same month.
Someone’s been using timewarp technology on us, surely.
Countdown hits the big time….
Sunday before an NFL preseason game….the show will be seen on NBC
(Update 8/26 …in the Bizzaro world of Denver TV timing, it *will* be seen….at 9:00 local time *after* the football game it previews…[pout] )
It appears that there are 88% more folks watching Countdown than at this time last year…
Heh.
Wonder how some *other* cable news ratings are trending..hmmm?
