Now that America has a liberal President, it is apparently no longer acceptable for a private citizen to express disagreement with the White House in Keith Olbermanns world.

Keith Ubermean not only has Penis Envy, he has GENIUS ENVY.
Way to go Mr Cheney !!! I love seeing that Ignorant Reprobate go Nuts . Keep Up the good work
“made to desist” ?
Fascist moonbat. You should be given 1000 papercuts by a copy of the first amendment.
If nothing else, that much is clear. And it's the scary kind of insane.
