Will Krauthammer attack McCain for referring to Khamenei as ‘Supreme Leader?’

Will Krauthammer attack McCain for referring to Khamenei as ‘Supreme Leader?’
In his Washington Post column today, Charles Krauthammer bitterly attacked President Obama for referring to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as the “Supreme Leader” of Iran. “‘Supreme Leader’? Note the abject solicitousness with which the American president confers this honorific on a clerical dictator,” wrote Krauthammer. But on Fox News later in the day, one of Krauthammer’s most admired politicians also referred to Khamenei as “Supreme Leader.” “There may be those indications since the Supreme Leader said that they were not going to tolerate further demonstrations in the street,” said Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Watch it:
Will Krauthammer lash into McCain next for his “abject solicitousness?”

Of course not hypocrites have no shame nor conscience.
June 19th, 2009 at 7:52 pmAnother attempt to drive a wedge? Shocker!
June 19th, 2009 at 7:52 pmI would love to get Richard Widmark on Krauthammer.
And WHO is this “American Patriot” troll?
Another 20 per center who has no clue as to what he is talking about?
June 19th, 2009 at 7:55 pmAre these the same people who got bent out of shape when President Obama called the country by its full, official name, The Islamic Republic of Iran? My understanding is that “Supreme Leader” is Khamenei’s actual title, even though he isn’t really “supreme” and can be replaced. What is wrong with referring to people and countries by their actual names?

It is not here to debate, learn, or share ideas. It is here to disrupt because it gets some sort of childish glee out of making everyone smell its diaper.
We make an effort to ignore it, which usually sends it into more and more outrageous attempts to get attention, which gets highly entertaining as it spins out of control.

June 19th, 2009 at 8:00 pmKrauthammer will say McCain “misspoke”, and that he was having daydreams at the moment about Diana Ross.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:02 pmSince the answer to the question is self-evident, it’s clearly just a rhetorical question.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:06 pmBut it would be nice if The Daily Show would use a couple of clips to demonstrate yet again the total hypocrisy that is the sum and substance of the current Publican Party, and of its cheerleaders in the mass media. (Though I doubt that Krauthammer bears enough importance to warrant a Jon Stewart takedown.)
Pity we have to rely on The Daily Show to do things like this, since the Democratic “leadership” clearly has little interest in doing so.

Do mice bark? I don’t think so. Both Krauthammer and Grandpappy McSame are two peas in a pod drinking the same GOP koolaid and spewing crapola.

June 19th, 2009 at 8:45 pmBush would have called Khamenei “Soupy” or something like that (but never did because he thoughr Ahmadinejad was the head burrito of Iranistan).
Just what does Krauthammer expect anyone to call the officially titled Supreme Leader–Ming The Merciless?

June 19th, 2009 at 8:55 pmThis is how the second Bush administration and its minions made the first Bush administration look good by comparison. Protocol isn’t something you just throw out the window to service your ideology. Calling other world leaders names, not calling them by their appropriate titles, and referring to nations as being in an “Axis of Evil” is childish and unnecessary. I want our president to present a very dignified face to the world.

June 19th, 2009 at 9:18 pmOf course, Krauthammer is fine with anyone calling President Obama the “monkey n*g**r”, because Krauthammer is a man of respect, high morality, and is part of the GOP. See?

June 19th, 2009 at 9:34 pmWill Chucky k. call out Michelle Malkin? Or Fox News?
June 19th, 2009 at 9:39 pmIt’s the repugnance he feels for himself…Krauthammer would attack his own mother if it furthered partisan interests…
June 19th, 2009 at 9:45 pmsince when are cancervatives against stolen elections? you mean to tell me they’ve adopted a sense of morals since their idiot king was selected in 2000?
June 19th, 2009 at 9:46 pmKrauthammer’s eloquence belies the fact that he’s a partisan hack.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:46 pmI am reminded of Mr. Taggert’s words:
“God darnit, Mr. Krautheimer, you use your tongue prettier than a twenty dollar whore.”

June 19th, 2009 at 10:04 pmcan you explain to us why your bff krautie singled out the president while ignoring the exact same comment maed by grampy mclame? could it be that krautie is a bitter partisan hack with nothing to offer but empty attacks?
But, but, but it’s different when a Republican says it.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:04 pmjbb, come on. Chucky here gets all miffed about our President saying “Supreme Leader” and it’s pointed out here that McCain uses it and I even pointed out that Malkin and Fox used the same term.
Chucky’s original argument doesn’t hold anything without him jumping on all who use the term. It’s not personal attacks. It’s fact. You should acquaint yourself with them.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:04 pmIt didn’t take long for Jimmy and American to show up and spread their venom. But I must say I’m tired of their argument that Libs are hosile to different views. What a crock.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:08 pmYou are obviously not speaking from personal experience…you never present a real view…just regurgitated vomit from your right wing handlers…kind of like a really f’ed up MK Ultra for idiots…the image of a monkey on a leash with a tin cup and an accordian comes to mind…

If Krauthammer knew what he was talking about, this wouldn’t be an issue because W. would have already bombed the Supreme Leader out of Iran. Here is his prescient opinion from Oct. 2007:
Another moment of Krauthammer clarity comes when he claims W. saw some problems as too grave to leave to his predecessor.
Obama – and McCain – were showing respect to the leader of a nation I hope we are still trying to come to peaceful terms with. The Reich, however, like radical Islam, feels such respect is only owed to their own kind – which is to say, the inbred arm of Christianity.

Tis funny, though I’m not terribly proud of the fact I think so.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:52 pmKrauthammer and the rest of the new-clowns are still holding firm to their dogma of “freedums across the middle east”
“6 days, 5 months… I doubt 400 years” (yes, I butchered Dumbsfelt’s quote) Expecting 3-minute pre-cooked Chimpocracy HAS FAILED.
It will continue to fail because the New-Clowns are DINOSAUR stupid.
Years ago I suggested the USA set up FREE WI-FI access where ever it could be allowed in the M.E., but nooooooo… the New-Clowns kept insisting in BOMB, BOMB, BOMB – we’ll be greeted as A$sholes! policy.
It is no surprise that protests against the Iranian conservative THEOCRACY are using the INTERNET as a subversive tool.
Even if the IRANIAN LBRULS were to achieve victory, first thing they will tell the USA would be to STFU and STAY OUT,
since it was none other but good ol’ uncle Sam who provided weapons to Saddam Hussein to be used against Iran.
The whole world has learned to be suspicious of Unca Imperialist’s good intentions.

June 20th, 2009 at 12:23 amWhy Bruce, we should call him “eville”. Because being a Superpower means never having to play by any one else’s rules, and kicking sand in people’s faces, and walking around with a chip on your shoulder so big that when our leader calls another world leader that is on our bad-guy list by his actual title it is supposed to be an insult to our Superpower status.
Very sensitive—the Superpower Syndrome—everything that doesn’t make us the arbiter of everyone’s affairs is appeasement a la Chamberlain, or an existential threat.

For a part-time worker you sure do eat good, although aside from the salmon nothing else sounds edible to me.
June 20th, 2009 at 12:27 amWell. Why would you think I only work part time? I work a fulltime job and a second part time job. What about you? Capers are great you should try them. Get some high grade fresh tuna not that cat food in the can stuff. Cut it into little cubes. Pound them paper thin between sheets of wax paper. Top with minced red onion and capers. Drizzle with a high quality olive oil and salt and pepper but the pepper has tobe freshly cracked and the salt should definately not have a girl with an umbrella on the label… Trust me on this one…
June 20th, 2009 at 12:31 amAmazing – actually disappointing, but at least it shows what blogs are really progressive, liberal, and which just like to generate hits.
It is clear that obama and the dems are going to sell us short on healthcare – no public option and NO UNIVERSAL COVERAGE.
That means no healthcare reform that matters – in fact, it will be a give away to the industry just like the give away to banks, auto makers, and the military-industrial complex.
The dems have mislead us and squandered the best chance for real reform in many years – perhaps a historical moment that is not likely to come again.
And all you can blog about for 2 days are the lying liars that provided the distraction for the sell-out.
Nothing of substance about what obama and dems are doing. Looks like think progress has sold liberals/progressives out too.

By JONATHAN J. COOPER (Associated Press Writer)
From Associated Press
June 19, 2009 7:46 PM EDT
PHOENIX – The tagline on Shawna Forde’s anti-illegal immigration Web site says her group was “doing the job our government won’t do.” They wanted to patrol the border, but her small band of activists needed money to do it.
So, authorities say, Forde and two men dressed up as Border Patrol agents and broke into the southern Arizona home of a man they thought was a drug dealer, hunting for money or drugs to sell. They found neither, but killed the man and his 9-year-old daughter

(partial transcript from DU)
June 20th, 2009 at 10:50 amI think I figured it out, Republicans think hypocrisy is a sport, Krauthammer was behind on points after O’Rielly and Hannity.
June 20th, 2009 at 11:00 amAs opposed to what? Agreeing with them?
Look. Discussion of issues happens when people agree, not when they don’t. that’s why serious discussion is so hard, because the first step is to find areas of agreement, and it’s a doozy. Diplomats spend years making that first step, and academics sometimes spend entire careers.
So if yo really want to come over here and have a ’serious discussion of issues’ you have to do what you never do–establish the ares on which you agree with us.
And you know why that’s impossible? Because your present conservative movement has only one common thread–hatred of liberals.
You have this insana amalgam of fundamentalist Xtianity and Randian atheism–fre-market fundamentalism and red-state populism–Rabid support for the USA! combined with Confederate secessionism. Your three blocks–the PatrimonyREpublicans, the Rapturites, and the Galtomanes are fundamentally incompatible with each other–hating liberals for entirely different reasons.
One of my best friends, who runs a major progresive web site, was a member of the Liberttarian Party, ad I’ve known an awful lot of techno-libertarians–mainly engineers and scientists who got bitten by Heinlein as a youth. I disagree with libertarianism, but I could find all sorts of commonground on which to discuss issues.
I have friends who are orthodox Jews, devoted Christians, and militant atheists. I can talk to all of them, because they shhare with me an interest in the Big Questions, even if the answers they come up with are wildly different.
But you? You’ll talk about free-market fundamentals and the Nanny State–and then start screaming about unborn babies the next minute. You’ll scream about elitism and losers in the same breath. And it’s not because you’re lunatics–it’s just because you’re simply opposed to us.
We love America here. We celebrate human freedom. Just about all of us think that capitalism is a fine thing, as is science. The possibility for discussion exists.
But not until you acknowledge that we’re on the same side in many ways.
And if you do that, your creaky cobbled together conservative movement loses its entire reason for being.
June 20th, 2009 at 11:07 amWow, pbeeg.
That was outstanding. I just may keep that post on hand and refer to it often in the future.

aren’t these the same clowns who were gleefully singing “bomb,bomb, bomb iran” a scant six months ago? now they’re the iranian people’s BFF’s. what a bunch of flip flopping clowns.
If President Obama had started off with condemning the government of Iran for it’s election the Republics would have been all over him for it. The way they take a stance on any issue is by taking the exact opposite stance of President Obama.

June 20th, 2009 at 11:52 amDr. Hussein Matt Says:
And yet another reich-wing teabag terrorist went on a murderous hunt.
And yet those murders have received very little press. They happened on the same day as the Tiller murder and the press didn’t report it until 10 days later, on a weekend. Then it just went away. I think that right wing extremists murdering a 9 year old girl should be big news, front and center. But since the people who were murdered were Mexicans, to our MSM it doesn’t deserve to be reported and discussed.
June 20th, 2009 at 11:56 amP.D. Says:
It didn’t take long for Jimmy and American to show up and spread their venom. But I must say I’m tired of their argument that Libs are hosile to different views. What a crock.
If they want an echo chamber, they need to stick to sites like redstate.com. Besides, it’s not that we are hostile to different views, it’s that we are hostile to right wing talking points that can’t be backed up by facts.
June 20th, 2009 at 11:58 amWayne Ant Schneider Says:
Not true. When I have ever attacked either of you personally? We may have to make sure we’re clear on the definition of “attacked”, but go ahead and tell me when I’ve attacked either one of you.
To the right wing trollies if you don’t agree with their talking points, you are attacking them. They have very thin skin. That’s why I think it’s best to simply ignore them.
June 20th, 2009 at 12:00 pmAnd yet those murders have received very little press.

June 20th, 2009 at 12:20 pmWill Krauthammer attack McCain for referring to Khamenei as ‘Supreme Leader?’
NO.

June 20th, 2009 at 12:49 pmPee takes his discredited talking points from Bildo O’Lielly who, coincidentally has completely ignored the Shawna Forde story.
June 20th, 2009 at 1:00 pmI love it when progressives call facts “talking points” followed by the “diversion” card.
June 20th, 2009 at 1:36 pmFollowed by a far left blog as “proof.”
June 20th, 2009 at 1:38 pmPee thinks that “Like the muslim convert killer?” is some sort of a “fact”…

Could you please stop your homo erotic fantasies with Keith Olbermann at least until you elope with Jjjjimmeh?
Now, on more practical matters.
Jjjjimmmmeh wants to know if it is OK with you to smoke Pall Malls during uh… servicing you, or you rather Camels?
June 20th, 2009 at 2:02 pmPee the only way you could “get my ass handed to me” would be to demonstrate that the article on C&L is false.
Just claiming that it’s a “far left site” like O’Lielly enjoys doing says nothing about the validity of the article.
Has O’Lielly covered the Shawna Forde story?
Oh, and you’re the only one around here who is obsessed with Olbermann. I don’t watch his show.
Now go play.

June 20th, 2009 at 5:00 pm“Countdown with Keith Olbermann on MSNBC provides news”
June 20th, 2009 at 5:14 pmXisithrus Says:
For the last time APee, Olbermann does commentary he doesnt call his show, like some shows, NEWs
Yes. He does commentary about the news, which is why he opens every show with “Which of these five stories will you be talking about tomorrow?” That’s not to say he won’t interrupt his show with Breaking News, but he isn’t there to report</em the news, only to comment on it with his guests.
Olbermann correctly believes that you don’t have to have “balance” in your talk shows about the news. In almost every discussion on the other talk shows, they feature a left-winger and a right-winger. It has been my own personal observation that right-wingers do not know how to “debate” a topic. They act as if stating an argument automatically bestows validity on it and, therefore, you should agree with them. What they consistently fail to understand is that if their argument is not based on actual facts from the actual real world, then it is not a valid argument and that it should be dismissed. (For example, anything Frank Gaffney says on TV is, nine out of ten times, completely false. They should stop having on their programs if they want their views to be informed ion the issues.)
And given the fact that they are often on TV for a limited amount of time, they know that if they keep the discussion going to the point of total confusion for the viewer (especially the ones who think that they are being truthful), then the viewer will come away unsure about the issue. And that is their true goal – not to persuade anyone that they are right and we are wrong, but to leave the viewers at home unsure about the truth.
They know they cannot win most arguments on the merits of their position because their position has no merits for the average American. If you believe that corporations are full citizens with the rights of every other citizen, if you believe that making money is more important than doing something good, if you believe that Jesus and God (who are, supposedly, one and the same thing) are more powerful gods than any other, then you’ll probably agree with the right-winger no matter how ridiculous they sound.

June 20th, 2009 at 5:38 pmEugene,
Please stop asking people to kill themselves. Some of us have had suicides in our families, and we don’t think this is something to be taken lightly. Nor does it enhance the point you are trying to make. In truth, I think it just gives the Bill O’Reillys of the world an excuse to claim that this is a “hate-filled site.”
June 20th, 2009 at 5:42 pmEugene, I agree.
I don’t believe you really mean those words. You are better than the trolls.
June 20th, 2009 at 5:53 pmWayne A. Schneider Says:
I have had a suicide in my immediate family, dont take it lightly and no one elected you to be either my boss or the room protocol manager. I will post as I please and you just dont have anything to say about it. It really is that simple
June 20th, 2009 at 5:53 pmAlso words can have a more powerful effect than you may realize. Who knows if some severly depressed might take that suggestion seriously? It’s a dangerous thing to play with.
I think you’re a good person but asking someone to go kill themself is beneath you.
June 20th, 2009 at 5:54 pmEugene, you are correct, no one gets to tell you how to respond or post. These are requests to your better nature.
They aren’t worth the anger.
June 20th, 2009 at 5:57 pmEugene,
Oh, well, I tried. I am sorry for your loss. If you want to continue to be one of those who gives this site a bad reputation, then I am in no position to stop you. But you also did not address how those kinds of comments enhance your argument in the least, nor how they disprove right wing criticism of TP as a “hate site.” I won’t bother wasting my time trying to appeal to your better nature any more. I’ll just let your comments reveal your better nature for you.
Have a good day. Sorry to have upset you.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:09 pmThey arent supposed to enhance any argument since I didnt make an argument and dont address them to people who MAKE arguments that can be asnwered. Just trolls who come here expressely to show their contempt for us and and screw with us. I show my contempt for them.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:15 pmAmerican Patriot Says:
And yet those murders have received very little press.
Like the muslim convert killer?
Why do people keep bringing this up? It has nothing to do with liberals.
And Eugene, no one was trying to act like your boss. We just want you to realize that saying that might have an effect on someone. Do you really want to be the last straw for someone who is suicidal? You must understand how awful that is having been through a family member’s suicide so please imagine how someone else might take it.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:20 pmI guess it’s just a question of style. You have yours and I have mine. I try to show my contempt for the arguments they make. When they start attacking me (or my wife) personally, then I might change and attack them personally.
Have a nice life, Eugene. I won’t bother bringing up your “suicide requests” again.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:20 pmJust trolls who come here expressely to show their contempt for us and and screw with us. I show my contempt for them.
One final question, Eugene. Isn’t showing contempt their schtick? It is why they are here, to show their contempt and to gain satisfaction when they show that folks here are willing to play their game.
Until TP deigns to give us an Ignore button, it makes more sense to ignore their games and have rational discussions. Doesn’t it?
June 20th, 2009 at 6:22 pmFine do things you way. You dont need me
June 20th, 2009 at 6:27 pmEugene, we need all the support we can get. I have read many of your posts and the only ones I have trouble with have been mentioned.
You do good work. When you are working and not troll whacking. It is a temptation I often have trouble resisting as well.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:33 pmFine do things you way. You dont need me
Actually, we all need each other. We’re liberals, the ones who like to ask “How can I help you”, as opposed to conservatives who like to ask “Why should I help you?”
And Hoodathunktick is quite right. When you’re not telling trolls to go kill themselves, you post some really good, insightful, educational posts. I would prefer to see more of those.
But, hey, I can’t make you stop, I can only try to persuade you to stop. It would appear that you do not want to be persuaded. So be it.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:41 pmI used the Google on the phrase “Countdown with Keith Olbermann on MSNBC provides news”, and of the 148 sites that came back, not a single one was from MSNBC (or NBC).
So, in conclusion, this is not what Olbermann says about himself, it’s what others not in MSNBC say. Which means the phrase does not prove that Olbermann primarily does news. He primarily does commentary about the news.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:48 pmoke
June 20th, 2009 at 6:50 pmEugene..,
Please; If your focus is now solely to express contempt for trolls ( as it now appears to be) why not go to their natural territory and fight your good fight in those places?
You write “Fine do things your way. You don’t need me”
Well evidently a number of long time TP regulars feel that they don’t need you in your current and extensive dudgeon, and I concur.
If you think you;ve been helping, well, there’s some consensus that you are mistaken. And in case you hadn’t notice there’s a considerable vanguard here that doesn;t need your present kind of “help” in countering trolls– a number of that vanguard have been at TP BEFORE you added to the mix.
So think about it, please.
If you’ve ‘had enough’ of trolls, well some here are perilously close to having had enough of your violent constant violent rhetoric of late.
Think about it.
June 20th, 2009 at 6:54 pmTelling trolls to go kill themselves over and over and over,
in my opinion, is no enticement to anyone. And stupid ideologues like Billdo don’t need any facts to label anyone as “far left hate web site” because they will use the flimsiest excuses to build a straw man. Billdo and others will resort to the fallacy by association. Example, “You voted for Obama. Are you a socialist?”
It is to show what little worth the trolls have. Like wiping your shoes after stepping on dog crap.
Suppose you are jogging around the neighborhood and every time you make a round the same stupid ankle biter comes yapping.
If you ignore it, it will come back.
If you take your time and make your move just right, you will land the moron, er, troll over and over.
Ain’t that true, Jeffy Bovine?
After taking loads of abuse, you promised never to post again.
But after you licked your sore a$s you came back.
The point here is, we know you SORE LOSERS have nothing but yapping.

Implied two things.
1) EUGENE is mad all the time.
2) I suggested EUGENE to “take a breath”
I did not say, imply or suggested NEITHER of those.
That is my disagreement. For someone putting words in my mouth. For someone arguing I said something I never did.
I tried to explain how some of EUGENE’s posts are directed to the most useless trolls. Directly, because the trolls are not serious and by taking them seriously one offers a credibility they don’t deserve.
Furthermore EUGENE is responding to REPEAT trolls.
Those who come back around and around biting the TP regulars.
In my opinion, the best way is to discredit and show the troll’s ignorance.
June 20th, 2009 at 8:33 pmPlaying the trolls game is like going to a casino and expecting to win.

Because Jeff M. uses multiple sock puppets.
He has been kicked out of TP multiple times.
But he is always recognizable due to his obsession with Keith Olbermann, pasting comments without crediting the source, and lame one liners.
Furthermore, it takes one or two of my posts for Jeffy Bovine to chase after me. Jeffy is a jilted closet homosexual. He has accused other TP regulars of being yours truly.
Instead of listing Jeffy’s multiple monikers, some TP regulars have settled with “Pee” or “Jeffy Bovine”
June 20th, 2009 at 9:14 pmI suspect American Pee is also jay. Similar hatred and obsession with Keith but then again he does use those ridiculous one line phrases meant to be witty like OS.
June 20th, 2009 at 9:26 pmHoodathunktick Says:
Eugene, you are correct, no one gets to tell you how to respond or post. These are requests to your better nature.
They aren’t worth the anger.
They, the trolls, aren’t worth the attention either in my opinion.
I see that I’m in the minority here but I’ve come to appreciate EugeneDebs’ special way of dealing with the trolls.
For me, there’s a point where the back and forth with what are mostly ridiculous trolls starts to get to me and then along EugeneDebs comes and throws in one of his, “Troll why don’t you just go and kill yourself” things and I laugh, a bit uncomfortably it’s true, but my stress is relieved.
I agree with EugeneDebs that the trolls are here just to disrupt and I don’t think it reflects well on TP that there is so much juvenile and/or demented blather from them here.
I certainly sympathize with anyone who has been affected by a suicide (as I have been, although perhaps not quite as directly as some of you may have been) and wish you much strength in dealing with those losses.
June 20th, 2009 at 9:28 pmCould I have your permission, TP regulars, to tell Jeffy Bovine to F-off and die?
I can support the f-off part, but I’m not so sure I can get behind the “and die” part. But maybe that’s just me. I know that some TP regulars would like that, but I won’t list any names. ;)

I know that some TP regulars would like that, but I won’t list any names. ;)
Ouch. How’s the air up there on your high horse Wayne?
I don’t see that EugeneDebs, or anyone else for that matter, expressed any such violence towards ‘Jeffy Bovine’ other than johnny dol1ar. EugeneDebs was directing his remarks to the latest attention-seeking/attention-getting ridiculous troll whose name we all know.
Disagree with EugeneDebs all you want but please don’t presume others thoughts.
June 20th, 2009 at 10:23 pmHmmm…in my opinion, “F-off and die” is just one of the many variations of “F-off.” To me, the “and die” part is more the throwaway part of the phrase. I’ll allow it.

It’s not a horse I’m riding, just a road I’m trying to take (and not always successfully.) I asked him nicely and he refused. He made his choice and I made mine.
Best wishes to you.

Yes.
First, why did you choose your Olby Sucks sockpuppet to post this rant about what both CNN and MSNBC are not covering? It’s the weekend, so Olbermann wouldn’t have been on anyway. You could have used one of the other names you post under to make this snotty comment.
Second, so what? I assume that you are referring to the protests in Tehran. If so, how is reporting live on a volatile situation helpful? Most of the time, you can’t really know what’s happening or, more importantly for a “news” organization, why it’s happening. Western journalists have been kicked out of Tehran, and the videos we’ve been seeing are, at best, several hours old. There is no live information coming out of Tehran, so why report on it live?
Third, what is your obsession about Keith Olbermann? Do you realize that to an outside observer, your constant focus on Olbermann could be seen as pathological? I won’t argue that he can be as pompous as Bill O’Reilly, but there’s an important difference between the two that clearly doesn’t matter to you: Olbermann strives to give truthful information while O’Reilly is content to repeat falsehoods and outright lies in a pathetic attempt to prove he’s right. Like most liberals, I am less interested in what people are saying and more interested in what is actually true. After all, you can’t decide what would be the best thing to do if the information you’re basing your decision on is not connected to reality.
To be perfectly honest, I don’t expect you to give me a rational answer. You might answer, but I doubt there would be any thought to what you post.

Please stop showing up here to promote your porn site. If you’re looking to increase your traffic, then I suggest you post this at some of the right wing sites. You’ll find a greater and more grateful audience there.
Now, politely, for the last time, GO AWAY!

Why don’t you act like an adult, quit stalking and try joining the reality based universe.
June 21st, 2009 at 12:35 pmYou’re never going to be taken seriously while using that juvenile nickname and posting unintelligible gobbly goop.
What’s with the obsession with Mr. Olbermann, it seems rather creepy?
If you happen to run into Jesse Waters, would you please be kind enough to inform him that I’m still waiting for an answer to my question regarding his foolish stalking of Ms. Terkel.
“This is Fox News Channel – proud to be the only network of news in America with live and continuing coverage of a seminal moment”
I do believe some intern used the seminal word because they thought it meant something else. And Faux went with it because they did as well.
