Olbermann gives me hope for the human race that maybe somehow we’re not all morons.

Also i love when he’s done an angry tirade and then when he goes to his next point he’s instantly speaking perfectly calmly again lol.

Or choke a producer.

Or punch a baby.

I’m just relieved something like that is still allowed in mainstream media in the U.S. today. Bravo.

Agreed. It’s about time that the common grumblings of many American citizens are brought to mainstream media in such a passionate way. It is refreshing to see a journalist who is not afraid to call it exactly as he sees it. Let’s hope that the Bush administration tries to do something similar to him that was done to Joe Wilson, and Olbermann can expose how Bush deals with dissent.

Strange. I usually feel Olbermann hits the nail on the head with his rants, just like in his rant about Hillary Clinton continuously rearranging the goalposts during her campaign. In this one, I wasn’t feeling it. Still, I’m glad he’s exploring these things when so many other mainstream journalists tend not to.

He’s calling a sitting President a liar and a war criminal, I haven’t seen anything like this since I was kid watching the Nixon adminstration self-destruct.

Considering what’s happened to others who’ve stood up to Bush, I imagine he’s nervous taking this stand. All Joe Wilson did was run an article in the New York Times disputing the adminstrations garbage on Iraq trying to buy uranium in western Africa and his wife was outed as a CIA agent.

“See I done proved it written in crayon in the margins”.

Was that on TV???

Blasphemy on american TV? Honestly, I’m actually trying hard but yet can’t believe that… Would be a huge step in the right direction though.

The US political system was designed to keep people like Bush out of office, individuals that only owe their access to power to who they know and what family they come from instead of what they believe and stand for.

Few families have brought more pain and suffering to the US and the entire world than the Bushs, if there was any true justice in this world, George Bush would be sitting in a cell in the Hague awaiting trial. After all he’s responsible for more death and destruction than Milosevic ever was and all in the name of a nasty black substance that gets pumped out of the ground.

Few people with the exception of Phil Donohue had the guts to stand up to Bush early in his mandate, it’s so sad that many lives could have been saved if there had been any real courage still in journalism. Donohue lost his job over his opposition to the Iraq war, but events have proven him right.
