		<description>Can someone please send me a list of any Democrats who have ever been named &quot;Worst Person in the World&quot; on Olbermann&#039;s show?  Thanks.

He now looks and sounds like a dorkier version of Steve Allen, which is saying a hell of a lot!</description>

		<description>Olberman is a shining light for truth in Politics. I say to you Keith, Keep it up!

Kurtz is a Bush backer and should follow the path of Keith and tell the truth about this lying Administration and the worst person to ever sit in the Oval Office!!! I have never been able to put the words President and BushII Together.</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s see.

&quot;The Truth&quot; is leftist.

Olbermann tells &quot;The Truth&quot;.

Olbermann blogs for DailyKos, that paragon of balance.

Olbermann is not leftist.

Wow.</description>

		<description>Arn, perhaps you have confused me with another person.  I&#039;ve not accused Olbermann of lying.  You&#039;ll have to play that game with someone else.  I don&#039;t care enough.

Of course, spin, hyperbole, diversion and denial are the foundation of partisan sheepism.  Both sides.  And pretending that KO isn&#039;t a leftist is denial in its purest form.

So you agree with me, after all that.  It ain&#039;t a newscast.  Bingo.  Thanks!</description>

		<description>My comment was in regard to the merits of Hollywood, not business. I agree with your premise. ;)

Oh, i forgot, Hollywood is â€œleftistâ€ becauseâ€¦ becauseâ€¦ exactly why? Because they make movies? I never understood that myth.

Comment by Evil Spaniard â€” January 28, 2008 @ 5:10 pm

You&#039;re right that a lot of Hollywood &quot;entertainment&quot; presents lefty views.  Unfortunately the problem is much greater than that.  The majority of what they produce has neither a left nor right message, but is almost universally bad.  That is the problem.  ;)</description>

		<description>Arn, surely you understand that the right-wingers you mention (Rush, Coulter, Hannity, O&#039;Reilly) don&#039;t try to pass themselves off as newscasts.  You do know this, don&#039;t you?

Or are you admitting that Countdown is not a newscast?  If that&#039;s the case, that was my original point, before all the emotion and insults took over.

A simple &quot;yes&quot; or &quot;no&quot; from you folks would be appreciated.  All this anger is toxic.</description>

		<description>Arn, okay, I see.

So a newscast doesn&#039;t have to be objective if its orientation is leftist, because the leftist way of looking at things is The Truth.  And The Truth is what matters in a newscast.  I get it.

This actually coincides with a theory of mine.  I believe the media is sincere when it says it&#039;s not biased, because a vast majority of the media is leftist.  When they &quot;report&quot; with a decidedly leftist slant (there are several ways to do this), they feel they are simply providing The Truth.

After two-plus decades in the industry, I&#039;ve always been amazed at how &quot;journalists&quot; proudly slant the news but deny they&#039;re slanting it.  I think this theory of mine makes sense.

So Countdown doesn&#039;t need to be objective, it doesn&#039;t need to provide both sides of an issue, because it has a firm grasp on The Truth, and no other sides are needed.

I see.  Absolutely fascinating.</description>

		<description>Evil:

Thank you for providing such a vivid example of the partisan sheepism I referred to in post 223:  &quot;You don&#039;t agree with me, so you&#039;re dumb.&quot;  This is just too easy.  You folks just can&#039;t HELP yourselves, CAN you?

If the bottom line of all your childish insults is that Countdown is an objective news broadcast, we&#039;ll have to disagree.  I gave examples, you responded with 7th grade attacks.  That&#039;s all I need to know.

This is why the partisans on both sides of the political spectrum have zero credibility.  Spin, denial, hyperbole, insults.  And of course, &quot;if you don&#039;t agree with me, you&#039;re dumb.&quot;

So evidently (if I read between all the various insults) you look at Countdown as on objective news broadcast.  Absolutely amazing. 

If I&#039;m wrong, and you admit that Countdown is not objective (again, tough to tell through all the insults), you could have just admitted it without the childish behavior. 

Either way, you can continue with your insults now.  I&#039;m expecting &quot;nyah nyah nyah&quot; any minute.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;When you look into the eyes of an angry zealot, you know there is no reasoning with them. They will continue to hate, to the exclusion of everything else. Single-minded, not unlike a hungry wild animal.

Arn, I can see that trying to communicate with you is like trying to communicate with a suicide bomber, or one of Reverend Phelpsâ€™ gang. They ALSO believe they have an iron-clad grasp of The Truth. Just like you. Your mind is sealed shut, no light is going to get in.

I hope you find a healthy, positive release for all that anger. Right now I suspect youâ€™re unstable. I wish you the best.

		<description>&lt;em&gt;I never claimed that doing bussiness is bad or evil per se.

So, Iâ€™m showing only the absurdity of calling such an entrepreneur and bussiness man â€œcommunistâ€. In itself, it shows the inconsistency and illogical stance of the Republicans, past and present.

My comment was in regard to the merits of Hollywood, not business. I agree with your premise. ;)

Oh, i forgot, Hollywood is &quot;leftist&quot; because... because... exactly why? Because they make movies? I never understood that myth.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Evil:

â€œYour argument has a basic failure: every issue has two sides. First, reality has only one representation. And second, your limited view makes you see every issue as â€œgoodâ€ or â€œevilâ€. Youâ€™re the first who isnâ€™t objective.â€

Huh? My whole POINT is that there are two sides to every story, and with Olbermann we get only one. Among the more amusing claims of partisans is that â€œour view is the only correct one, therefore the other side doesnâ€™t DESERVE to be heardâ€, and evidently that is your position as well. I see the same thing coming from Al Qaeda.&lt;/em&gt;

So you are incapable of understand that viewing issues in a matter of black or white is simplistic and that every issue has its own shade of grey or, best said, its own color? No wonder your low IQ attittude &quot;either you&#039;re blindly pro-Bush in every issue, or you&#039;re with Al Qaeda&quot;.

Every opinion is worth hearing, but reality is one and, for your bad luck, reality leans heavily to the left.

&lt;em&gt;â€œLooks as the standard procedure in right wing shows.â€ 

Great! So we agree that Countown is a left wing show. That wasnâ€™t so hard, was it?&lt;/em&gt;

You know, based in your posts, and your &quot;logic&quot; (har har), I agree that I&#039;m intelligent and you very dumb. Same leap.

&lt;em&gt;â€œâ€œRightistâ€ and â€œSlightly Less Rightistâ€ are not opposite views.â€

Well, okay, Iâ€™m not surprised to learn that you consider regular guests like Al Sharpton, Kirsten Powers, Geraldo Rivera and rest as rightists, thatâ€™s fine. It gives me a good idea of how far left you are.&lt;/em&gt;

Well, considering your demonstrated mindset, probably you think Adolf Hitler is a communist and Mussolini some type of socialist.

&lt;em&gt;So we agree - Countdown is left wing, there are two sides of an issue and both should be clearly represented by objective journalists.

Sounds good to me!

Of course it sounds good to you, because you&#039;re only hearing the little voices in your head. I never said anything you assert I&#039;ve said.

So, being you so happy discussing with your &quot;voices&quot;, I left you alone (or not).</description>

		<description>When you look into the eyes of an angry zealot, you know there is no reasoning with them.  They will continue to hate, to the exclusion of everything else.  Single-minded, not unlike a hungry wild animal.

Arn, I can see that trying to communicate with you is like trying to communicate with a suicide bomber, or one of Reverend Phelps&#039; gang.  They ALSO believe they have an iron-clad grasp of The Truth.  Just like you.  Your mind is sealed shut, no light is going to get in.

I hope you find a healthy, positive release for all that anger.  Right now I suspect you&#039;re unstable.  I wish you the best.</description>
