i’ll bet most of those applauding olbermann are from nyc because the rest of us in the heartland say he sucks–and what the hell does he have to do with football? reminds me of the “500 lb gorilla”
lose him or lose viewers!!!!!!

Besides Spokane, Wash. (KHQ), are there any other NBC affiliates in the country that will NOT carry Sunday’s Countdown?

All other pacific northwest NBC affiliates in Washington, Idaho and Oregon will carry it at 9 or 10 pm.

“I hear desperation and confuson…”

Of course you do considering you aren’t a qualified messenger. Next time please send someone worthy of my consideration.

“…and do not let yourself be so easily distracted by the fancy words of the enemy.”

The enemy, i.e. you, considering you work for them, uses fancy words in order to sound more intelligent but it only makes you look even worse not to mention vain. Please tell you master that you have failed due to shear incompetance on you part.

“Serve us or be served to us. Its your choice.”

You guys, i.e. your master and you, being a the bottom of the intellectual food chain, that’s pretty much impossible.

That means Keith Olberman show is doing so well, they’re moving it to network television.

Bill Oreilly’s stupid show, is not.

Keiths been saying “good night and good luck” long before the movie came out bozo.

Oh and hey, did ya hear?

Keiths show COUNTDOWN going to be on Network Television.

Bill O’reilly’s show The Factor, is not.

Olbermann is a pussy. He never even thinks of arguing with people he disagrees with. Only a complete douche would like this guy, a pompous jerk so desperate to have George Clooney make a movie about him that he actually says Edward R. Murrow’s parting line every night.

Go, Keith! I am such a huge fan of the show. He’s our Edward R. Murrow. His heroic commentaries have been known to move this old cynic to tears.

My dear Wormwood;

I fear you are letting the enemy confound and derail your efforts. I hear desperation and confuson, both signs of a weak mind, and weaker soul. I am sure you know how our adored master delights in the weak mind, and a strong soul makes for a stringy meal, so might I persuade you to buckle down to the task at hand, and do not let yourself be so easily distracted by the fancy words of the enemy. Focus, and remember the reward for those who fail us, is an unpleasant one.

Serve us or be served to us. Its your choice.

Your loving uncle, Screwtape

Whats a “worth messenger”?

By: Tracy

Tracy — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 01:46:47 +0000

“From the tone of your last letter I am to assume you are either quite drunk, or inviting the torment of the hellfire prematurely…”

No it’s just the messenger is trying to pass empty threats from an irrelevant source.

“I will assume this deviation from course is a one time occurance and will thus not report it.”

No, I suggest you report it now…before you forget.

“I advise you focus on your goal, to disrupt the conversations of the enemy and obscure facts, preferably before they come to light in the discussion.”

I advise you to take your own advice.

“I am proud of your commitment to disrupt the freedom of the enemy and to hinder the progression of truth,…”

The enemy hasn’t progressed at all in the presentation of the truth.

“Continue in your endeavors and do not yield to the adversaries when their facts confound your diversion….”

Again the enemy has yet to present any truth.

“Be strong and chin up, but do not disappoint me again.”

Or what? You will write me another long winded letter stating nothing worth listening to?

My suggestion to you is go back into training with your master because you have yet to qualify as a worth messenger.

My Dearest Wormwood.

From the tone of your last letter I am to assume you are either quite drunk, or inviting the torment of the hellfire prematurely, perhaps to facilitate some need to for misguided self respect. Might I remind you that crap rolls downhill, and you my nephew, are somewhere near the base of the mountain. I advise you focus on your goal, to disrupt the conversations of the enemy and obscure facts, preferably before they come to light in the discussion.

I will assume this deviation from course is a one time occurance and will thus not report it. This time. But be warned that future deviations from your assigned goal will not be given such kind leave, but will be reported as per procedure when an apprentice strays from the path.

But enough of the unpleasentries. I am proud of your commitment to disrupt the freedom of the enemy and to hinder the progression of truth, and I trust you feel my ever growing fondness for your devotion to your family, and our ravenous master below. As he, I indeed grow hungry. Continue in your endeavors and do not yield to the adversaries when their facts confound your diversion. Be strong and chin up, but do not disappoint me again.

Affectionately as always, your Uncle, Screwtape.

“Youâ€™ve got to see the You Tube clip of Oâ€™Reilly and Rivera ripping each other over immigration.”

Yeah Rivera was a total idiot. I never saw soo much unwarranted racial bigotry come out of one person’s mouth as I did with Rivera.

“It has come to our attention that you have been unsuccessful at derailing the thread…”

Who fed you that bogus information?

“We have seen some of your less than adequate attempts to divert from the story…”

You must be related to LIL SERF, aks LIL BRAIN. Are you?

:….and I do not need to remind you that your probation is wearing thin on the paitence of the great one.”

I suggest you take these petty grievances directly to the “great one” and see if he or she has the time to listen.

“Be stout, and never yeild to the irresponsible printing of truth or fact until all knowledge gleaned by the humans, is our knowledge, and our truth.”

I will be sure to pass your request on to Olbermann personally….oh, and LIL SERF.

I love it with Keith Olbermann skewers Bill O’Reilly with facts, facts and more facts to utterly discredit O’Reilly often-bombastic lies and distortions. Even Rush Limbaugh, for all his right-wing bombast, is nowhere near as fast and loose with the facts than O’Reilly is.

But you know that O’Reilly’s credibility is going downhill when he gets into a high-octane shouting match with fellow Fox News host Geraldo Rivera right on O’Reilly’s show. You’ve got to see the You Tube clip of O’Reilly and Rivera ripping each other over immigration.

My dearest Wormwood.

It has come to our attention that you have been unsuccessful at derailing the thread regarding one of the heralds of our enemy, Keith Olberman, and his success at being aired on Network Television prior to the upcoming game between two of the enemies football teams.

We have seen some of your less than adequate attempts to divert from the story and muddy the waters to the casual observer by implying Olberman was merely returning to sportscasting, thus obscuring the fact that his show, a show which vexes our master no end, is now going to reach millions through standard network television.

I am sure I do not need to remind you of the less than pleasant consequences for allowing the humans to continue their line of discussion regarding this hurtful move, nor should I need to impress upon you the distaste our master has for any discussion promoting this bloody thorn in our side. The dungeonmaster has repeatedly expressed his desire to familiarize you once more with the bittersweet pleasures that await you below, should you fail in this noble task, and I do not need to remind you that your probation is wearing thin on the paitence of the great one.

Nonetheless I am left but to encourage you to persevere in your efforts to usurp the discussions of the enemies above, and never permit coherent or topical cognizance of the issues which so disturb our mission and cause pain to him whom we serve. Be stout, and never yeild to the irresponsible printing of truth or fact until all knowledge gleaned by the humans, is our knowledge, and our truth.

I eagerly await your next report.

Do not fail me.

Affectionately yours,
SCREWTAPE

I am not one to let people like yourself get away with lying to others here by trying to convince them of falsehoods and thing I didn’t mean. The fact that your aren’t that sharp doesn’t exempt you.
