Olbermann: Bush, Cheney should resign.

Olbermann: Bush, Cheney should resign.»

In an extended Special Comment tonight, MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann called on President Bush and Vice President Cheney to resign. He concludes his commentary with this:

We of this time–and our leaders in Congress, of both parties–must now live up to those standards which echo through our history: Pressure, negotiate, impeach–get you, Mr. Bush, and Mr. Cheney, two men who are now perilous to our Democracy, away from its helm.

For you, Mr. Bush, and for Mr. Cheney, there is a lesser task. You need merely achieve a very low threshold indeed. Display just that iota of patriotism which Richard Nixon showed, on August 9th, 1974.

Resign.

And give us someone–anyone–about whom all of us might yet be able to quote John Wayne, and say, “I didn’t vote for him, but he’s my president, and I hope he does a good job.”

    I am still trying to stop crying..
    He certainly speaks for me.


  2. Zooey Says:

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That’s my sweetie.

    Gotta find the whole thing……


  3. bogtrotters Says:

    Olbermann’s best ’special comment’ yet! Well-reasoned as well as passionate.


  4. gummitch Says:

    Huzzah! But there’s no way anyone is prying those weasels out of the White House.


  5. gummitch Says:

    Cue the trolls.

    Bah. Olberman is dum! Obermlan is a left wing loonie. Keithie Boy has the lowest-rated show ever on television.


  6. MsJoanne Says:

    Tomorrow, instead of celebrating the independence of our country, I will mourn for our losses.

    Keith Olbermann speaks for me and many other Americans; REAL Americans.

    If only this corrupt, spineless administration would listen. Alas, I won’t hold my breath. Bush/Cheney wouldn’t know what the right thing to do is if it smacked them across the face. And for that, we all lose.


  7. ace Says:

    The bravest, most heroic, most eloquent, most patriotic most ACCURATE statement EVER MADE.

    Be sure to forward this to EVERYONE YOU KNOW.

    Thank you Keith!

  12. Wayne A. Schneider Says:

    His best one yet! Powerful, compelling, and a succinctly rational argument for why neither of those men should be allowed to continue holding their offices. Both of these men violated that trust in immeasureable ways. Both men have earned our contempt and our utter lack of trust in anything they ever tell us again. Neither one can truly say he represents the people of the United States of America.

    Resign!

    Leave!

    And return here nevermore.


  13. David Says:

    That’s certainly nice, but will it have any effect?

    Maybe the last six years (not to mention the elections of 1968, 1972, 1980, 1984, and 1988) have made me too pessimistic, but I don’t expect anything to come of this other than a brief feeling of good cheer.


  14. Mr. President Says:

    Keithie Boy has the lowest-rated show ever on television… ever.


  15. JG Says:

    Bush/Cheney wouldn’t know what the right thing to do is if it smacked them across the face.

    Unfortunately, neither of them gives a rip about what is the right thing to do. If they did, they would have left already. What scares me most is that the masks are off. What happens next..?


  16. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Olberman said it right tonight.

    He speaks for this American.

    I’m Mr. President (for all you stupid bitches)

    I JUST CROSSED THE RUBICON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  20. Raven Says:

    Resignation implies an acknowledgement of guilt,
    or at least culpability.
    G. W. Bush is incapable of either.
    And Cheney is a dead soul.


  21. oleloz Says:

    Olbermann speaks for me.
    If the crooks don’t resign and the house doesn’t do their job we will have a Coup.


  22. ace Says:

    TP:

    Why is this troll, “Mr. President” allowed to destroy these threads?

    Do you really want us to conduct enlightened debate and dialogue regarding the most important issues of our day with these children spray painting graffiti everywhere?

    Ban him already - or at the very least, restrict his post to the borders of the page!


  23. Mike Says:

    That was one F’ing awesome statement by Olbermann. No one could have said it better.


  24. Angry One Says:

    President Bush may have commuted Scooter Libby’s sentence, but the blogosphere already handed down its own punishment.

    Here are the results from:
    “The Sentence Scooter Contest.”


  25. kasinca Says:

    Olbermann has more patriotism in one special comment than the entire republic party can muster in their entire history…Watergate was about breaking into the DNC headquarters to cheat in elections…what is it with these crooked bastards with (R) after their names…they have to lie, cheat, and steal to get through the day. the 26% who support the thugs of the crime family should all be deported to gitmo for a little waterboarding.


  26. kasinca Says:

    Mr. President,

    I am warning you one more time. Go play in your playground, this site is for grown ups and you have proven to be the dumbest son of a bitch to ever shit behind two heels.


  27. Wayne A. Schneider Says:

    what is it with these crooked bastards with (R) after their names

    Comment by kasinca — July 3, 2007 @ 10:05 pm

    Read John W. Dean’s fantastic book “Conservatives Without Conscience.” It may provide some insight to your question (even if it was rhetorical). :)


  28. willyloman Says:

    All but accused him of treason on national television. I love it. Just wish he had gone that extra step.

    Without any doubt, the worst President in our history. Even Nixon finally conceded his own hubris and paid a last honor to the Office by resigning.

    I agree with Raven though… this President is incapable of that. Cheney has larger plans for the Middle East, and nothing would ever deter him from following thru.

    They are trying to strike a deal to keep troops in Iraq indefinately for a slight reduction in the surge. It is insane what they think we will support.

    Comment by Mr. President — July 3, 2007 @ 9:57 pm

    You misspelled two out of three words in a three word sentence, one of which was “Dumb,” used as an accusation against someone other than yourself.

    Ban yourself.



  30. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Keith Olberman is clearly the Edward R. Murrow of our day.

    I bet you didn’t even read the posts, did you?

  37. Martin Gifford Says:

    The media wakes up!

    Keith Olbermann:

    I accuse you, Mr. Bush, of lying this country into war.

    I accuse you of fabricating in the minds of your own people, a false implied link between Saddam Hussein and 9/11.

    I accuse you of firing the generals who told you that the plans for Iraq were disastrously insufficient.

    I accuse you of causing in Iraq the needless deaths of 3,586 of our brothers and sons, and sisters and daughters, and friends and neighbors.

    I accuse you of subverting the Constitution, not in some misguided but sincerely-motivated struggle to combat terrorists, but to stifle dissent.

    I accuse you of fomenting fear among your own people, of creating the very terror you claim to have fought.

    I accuse you of exploiting that unreasoning fear, the natural fear of your own people who just want to live their lives in peace, as a political tool to slander your critics and libel your opponents.

    I accuse you of handing part of this Republic over to a Vice President who is without conscience, and letting him run roughshod over it.

    And I accuse you now, Mr. Bush, of giving, through that Vice President, carte blanche to Mr. Libby, to help defame Ambassador Joseph Wilson by any means necessary, to lie to Grand Juries and Special Counsel and before a court, in order to protect the mechanisms and particulars of that defamation, with your guarantee that Libby would never see prison, and, in so doing, as Ambassador Wilson himself phrased it here last night, of becoming an accessory to the obstruction of justice.


  38. ace Says:

    MSNBC is going to catch some serious heat to ban Olbermann from the airwaves.

    In actuality, it’s time for Keith to move to Network, with his Special Comment featured at the conclusion of Brian Williams’ NBC Nightly News.

    Demand an opinion out of Brian Williams regarding Keith’s comment tonight. Demand an opinion of EVERY talking head on television.

    Force them to choose sides.


  39. ann Says:

    Priceless was his look of utter disgust at the end of the commentary. He sounded also as if he was choking back a great wad of spit. Also, would like to add, after seeing him tonight on Countdown and at press conferences, why doesn’t David Shuster have his own show at MSNBC? Atrios asked the question, and I hope it grows legs….and emails and emails and phone calls. Olbermann will be rewarded by history, not that slug, gwb, who wouldn’t make a pimple on Keith’s ass.


  40. ScrewBush Says:

    If there’s one trait common to this entire group of NeoCons and Bushies it’s that they know now shame. It’s up to Congress because there is no way Chimpy is leaving one second earlier than he has to. Show an “iota of patriotism”, OMG that made me laugh because in truth neither Bush nor Cheney have one iota of patriotism.

    I remember in the lead-up to the election, he took Bush to task for the misinformation linking liberals to terrorists.
    He literally called Bush a liar on the show. repeatedly.
    He is the most intellectually honest person in news.

    Of course, Cheney will just shoot him in the face.

  52. Mark @ News Corpse Says:

    Just for the record…

    MSNBC is Growing Faster Than All Other Cable News Nets

    …and that growth is driven by Keith Olbermann and Countdown. The trolls that are spewing lies about the program’s performance may take some pleasure in the fact that Fox is still the leading network in the ratings, but O’Reilly has lost fully 50% of his audience in the past two years, and the network is in decline.

    People are waking up.

    Comment by ace — July 3, 2007 @ 10:14 pm

    Probably, but I doubt they’ll let Keith go. I think they were on board with this comment. Did you see Dan Abrams hosting Scarborough right after? He too crucified Bush.

    I think pretty much all of the news is feeling this way. Look at the White House press staff. People have had enough, and if Congress and Pelosi won’t get the job done, maybe the media can.

    Yes it could. Read post #19.


  55. ace Says:

    “Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one’s self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.”

    Give it time. Maybe we can convince Keith to start using it. Wouldn’t even have to explain it to him. :) Or we can start using it on other blogs.

    Did you know that the word “quiz” was invented on a bet? True story. One guy told a friend that he could get people to start using a new word overnight. His friend challenged him. The guy started writing the word “quiz” all over the place, and the next day people were asking “What’s a ‘quiz’?” Then it came to be known as a test. I read the story somewhere, probably an Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader.

    Thanks.

    Hello, I’m Ronald Reagan, former president and TRAITOR to the USA.

    Now VERY DEAD and BURNING IN HELL for my lies and genocide…

    And my Master Satan told me that he DOESN’T LIKE Keith Olbermann, because he tells the TRUTH about my Master’s EVIL PROTEGE Bush.

    Just WATCH Olbermann tell the TRUTH about the EVIL TRAITOR that is my Master’s PROTEGE, Bush:

    Treasonously yours from hell,

    Traitor Ronnie and my Master Satan


  61. willyloman Says:

    I talked to a guy on Public Access just after the show. He hates what Bush has done, but he was saying that he didn’t think Scooter should have gotton 30 months.

    I laid out the Justice Department frowning on Obstruction…

    That the Judge was a Bush Appointee…

    That the Parole Board said 16months and serve immediately….

    And also that the “underlying charge” was never resolved because of the Obstruction of Justice.

    That and the fact that this was a lawyer who committed it.

    All straight from keith and david. And in the end this guy said, you know you’re right. I hadn’t thought of it that way.

    So then he went off for the rest of the hour about what a crime it was to commute the sentence.

    Amazing what a little communication can do. Thanks Keith.

    I am sure bill oreilly hates it when keith speaks as we have yet to see bill come close to the abilities of keith O. keith is a real american, speaking truth.

    notice how those that are for the president or republican party resort to calling names as they have no argument against what keith has stated. keith states the facts.

    isn’t it awesome. also notice that keith’s ratings and that of msnbc have increased significantly. is the world starting to finally see the truth?

    unlike Bush. Bush took the most days of vacation of any president in his first term and guess what? we suffered the worst terrorist attack of history, lost over 3,000 americans. yet bush claimed he was reading the reports and busy protecting america? we say him golfing, alot..before the attacks.

    the man that should have protected us, allowed us to be attacked. he failed at his job from the beginning.

    has anyone noticed, years later…we still have not rebuilt the site of the twin towers? NOTHING!

    Probably, but I doubt they’ll let Keith go. I think they were on board with this comment. Did you see Dan Abrams hosting Scarborough right after? He too crucified Bush.

    I think pretty much all of the news is feeling this way. Look at the White House press staff. People have had enough, and if Congress and Pelosi won’t get the job done, maybe the media can.

    Comment by BARTLEBEE

    I think Keith is changing the tone of all MSNBC shows and all their rating are going up because of it. Even Tucker Carlson is less rabid then he used to be and Scarborough is more reasonable on that morning show replacing Imus. Olbermann is to MSNBC what Letterman is to CBS, bread and butter.

    HITLER

    The Reichstag Burns

    Adolf Hitler, the new Chancellor of Germany, had no intention of abiding by the rules of democracy. He intended only to use those rules to legally establish himself as dictator as quickly as possible then begin the Nazi revolution.

    Even before he was sworn in, he was at work to accomplish that goal by demanding new elections. While Hindenburg waited impatiently in another room, Hitler argued with conservative leader Hugenberg, who vehemently opposed the idea. Hitler’s plan was to establish a majority of elected Nazis in the Reichstag which would become a rubber stamp, passing whatever laws he desired while making it all perfectly legal.

    Hitler’s storm troopers were about to reach new heights of power of their own and begin a reign of terror.

    President Hindenburg had fallen under Hitler’s spell and was signing just about anything put in front of him. He signed an emergency decree that put the German state of Prussia into the hands of Hitler confidant, Vice Chancellor Papen. Göring as Minister of the Interior for Prussia took control of the police. Prussia was Germany’s biggest and most important state and included the capital of Berlin.

    Göring immediately replaced hundreds of police officials loyal to the republic with Nazi officials loyal to Hitler. He also ordered the police not to interfere with the SA and SS under any circumstances. This meant that anybody being harassed, beaten, or even murdered by Nazis, had nobody to turn to for help.

    About NUKING Iran:

    “August 1, 2005 Issue

    Deep Background

    In Washington it is hardly a secret that the same people in and around the administration who brought you Iraq are preparing to do the same for Iran. The Pentagon, acting under instructions from Vice President Dick Cheney’s office, has tasked the United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM) with drawing up a contingency plan to be employed in response to another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the United States. The plan includes a large-scale air assault on Iran employing both conventional and tactical nuclear weapons. Within Iran there are more than 450 major strategic targets, including numerous suspected nuclear-weapons-program development sites. Many of the targets are hardened or are deep underground and could not be taken out by conventional weapons, hence the nuclear option. As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran actually being involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States. Several senior Air Force officers involved in the planning are reportedly appalled at the implications of what they are doing–that Iran is being set up for an unprovoked nuclear attack–but no one is prepared to damage his career by posing any objections.”

    Let us think a moment.

    Bush, (commander and chief), the man that should have been protecting us was on vacation more than any president in his first term and we were attacked, on our own soil by terrorist. Bush had time to golf and fish but no time to work in order to protect us. Bush is responsible for the loss of those lives as he could have prevented it, but was busy golfing.

    what does he do next? he invades iraq, although they were not responsible for the attacks of 9/11 and they didn’t have wmd. he fooled all his christian supporters that still supported him for his torture rules….in the name of god.

    bush took a record surplus of money and turned it into a record deficit for out country. in the process, over 3,400 more americans have died in a war that we didn’t need, and was based on lies….way to go mr. president…you clown.

    now, the terrorist are more determined…why? because we attacked a country and killed innocent people, women and children for something they didn’t do…go figure.

    the christian president should stop listening to his god and start listening to the people but now it is too late.

    now, who are the people that are his main supporters after all this, the spying, they lies, the torture and human rights abuses? that’s right, the christians still support him….his number one supporters are the christians that bought his story that he speaks to god.

    go figure….

    keith exposes the white house for what it is and is the ONE person in the media that stands up against those idiots that still attempt to paint bush as a good person, an american. bush has caused more problems and we have yet to see them all come …..just wait…he has caused the entire world to hate america and this is something we didn’t need….he has insured that we will have to fight terrorist here…not prevented it.

    Controlling Reality – And The World

    PENTAGON PSYOPS – ANOTHER ILLEGAL PROGRAM

    “Information Operations Roadmap”

    Perhaps the most startling aspect of the roadmap is its acknowledgement that information put out as part of the military’s psychological operations, or Psyops, is finding its way onto the computer and television screens of ordinary Americans.

    “Information intended for foreign audiences, including public diplomacy and Psyops, is increasingly consumed by our domestic audience,” it reads.

    “Psyops messages will often be replayed by the news media for much larger audiences, including the American public,” it goes on.

    The document’s authors acknowledge that American news media should not unwittingly broadcast military propaganda. “Specific boundaries should be established,” they write. But they don’t seem to explain how.

    “In this day and age it is impossible to prevent stories that are fed abroad as part of psychological operations propaganda from blowing back into the United States - even though they were directed abroad,” says Kristin Adair of the National Security Archive.

    It recommends that a global website be established that supports America’s strategic objectives. But no American diplomats here, thank you. The website would use content from “third parties with greater credibility to foreign audiences than US officials”.

    ‘Fight the net’

    When it describes plans for electronic warfare, or EW, the document takes on an extraordinary tone.

    It seems to see the internet as being equivalent to an enemy weapons system.

    “Strategy should be based on the premise that the Department [of Defense] will ‘fight the net’ as it would an enemy weapons system,” it reads.

    The slogan “fight the net” appears several times throughout the roadmap.

    And, in a grand finale, the document recommends that the United States should seek the ability to “provide maximum control of the entire electromagnetic spectrum”.

    US forces should be able to “disrupt or destroy the full spectrum of globally emerging communications systems, sensors, and weapons systems dependent on the electromagnetic spectrum”.

    Consider that for a moment.

    The US military seeks the capability to knock out every telephone, every networked computer, every radar system on the planet.

    Are these plans the pipe dreams of self-aggrandising bureaucrats? Or are they real?

    The fact that the “Information Operations Roadmap” is approved by the Secretary of Defense suggests that these plans are taken very seriously indeed in the Pentagon.

    And that the scale and grandeur of the digital revolution is matched only by the US military’s ambitions for it.

    Military’s Information War Is Vast and Often Secretive

    By JEFF GERTH

    “The media center in Fayetteville, N.C., would be the envy of any global communications company …

    “The center is not part of a news organization, but a military operation, and those writers and producers are soldiers. The 1,200-strong psychological operations unit based at Fort Bragg turns out what its officers call “truthful messages” to support the United States government’s objectives, though its commander acknowledges that those stories are one-sided and their American sponsorship is hidden.

    “We call our stuff information and the enemy’s propaganda,” said Col. Jack N. Summe, then the commander of the Fourth Psychological Operations Group, during a tour in June. Even in the Pentagon, “some public affairs professionals see us unfavorably,” and inaccurately, he said, as “lying, dirty tricksters.”

They certainly can, and often have, delegated some of the rule-making authority to the Executive Branch, but that does not mean that they do not have total say over how the entire government functions under our constitution.

    And the Congress has set some very specific rules about how the president is to exercise the constitutionally-granted authority to “grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.” Unless the Congress has decided that the president shall decide the criteria and procedures for granting ths power (they haven’t), he must follow those rules. And those rules reqwuire that certain consultations take place (which didn’t), and that the person have begun serving his prison sentence (he didn’t), and the appeals process is allowed to run its course (it hasn’t).

    This one act alone is a clear violation of his oath of office and of the clause that requires that “he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.”

    For the good of the nation, both he and his co-president must resign.

    Just because the criminals in the White House don’t have the conscience to resign, does not mean that one should not call their attention to their duty.
