Keith talks to Howard Fineman about Sy Hersh's claim that Cheney was running a secret assassination ring.
Red State reports:
Cownell alum Keith Olbermann has a tough job. Imagine going on TV every night and trying to outdo your own prior outrage. I mean, once youve called someone worse than the Nazis you really got nowhere to go but down.
So it is that, with the audacity of a dope, our intrepid Cownell grad Keith went on the air two nights in a row hissy-fitting that Dick Cheney was running an assassination ring out of his office. Yes, seriously. An executive assassination ring he called it. If you cant picture old Keith getting worked up about writing this story then you dont know him very well, and for that
my envy knows no bounds; count yourself among the blessed. For the rest of us, weve seen the clips and heard Olbermanns nightly hyperventilation about
well everything, enough to know that he may have actually passed out a few times working on the executive assassination ring story. And with Dark Lord Cheney making waves anew, and Keith assiduously avoiding other news, its a cinch Olbermann has more two minutes hate for Cheney on the way.

Hey, Keith, you dumba$$, if Cheney was in the assassination business, there are a whole bunch of you stupid liberals that wouldn’t be around to be such a pain in his a$$ and ours!
Not worth a bullet. Maybe we could get Helen Thomas to sit on his face.
Liberalism is mental illness! It destroys the brain!
Heck no. They'd both enjoy that. lol...
A one man circle jerk by a diaper-wearing impotent imbecile is definitely a tough job.
If we told you, we'd have to kill you too.
If Mr. Cheney is REALLY cool - and of course he is - he will answer questions about this with a smile and,
"He's still alive, isn't he?"
you have that right RB. his young man would have been near the top of any ‘Cheney hit list’ if one so existed.
his = this....... put that jug in the purple bag down now bobby.
How big a fool does this man have to make of himself to get fired?
The story originated with Seymour Hirsh-who made the claims verbally,with zero to back them up.
If you believe Seymour.....
“He’s still alive.....for now”
Yeah, that heart condition thing is just propaganda to fake everyone out.
Olberman = @sshole
Olbermann is a wuss - part wimp and part pussy.
Seymour denies he ever said it.

I did not say Cheney killed Benazir: Hersh
LAHORE: US journalist Seymour Hersh on Monday contradicted news reports being published in South Asia that quote him as saying a special death squad made by former US vice president Dick Cheney had killed Benazir Bhutto. The award-winning journalist described as complete madness the reports that the squad headed by General Stanley McChrystal the new commander of US army in Afghanistan had also killed former Lebanese prime minister Rafique Al Hariri and a Lebanese army chief. Vice president Cheney does not have a death squad. I have no idea who killed Mr Hariri or Mrs Bhutto, Hersh said. I have never said that I did have such information. I most certainly did not say anything remotely to that effect during an interview with an Arab media outlet. He said Gen McChrystal had run a special forces unit that engaged in high value target activity, but while I have been critical of some of that units activities in the pages of the New Yorker and in interviews, I have never suggested that he was involved in political assassinations or death squads on behalf of Mr Cheney, as the published stories state. He regretted that none of the publications had contacted him before carrying the report. This is another example of blogs going bonkers with misleading and fabricated stories and professional journalists repeating such rumours without doing their job and that is to verify such rumours. staff report
