Olbermann Unglued in October: GOP is 'Leading Terrorist Group' in America
Newsbusters ^ | 10/23/06 | Brad Whilmoth

Posted on 10/24/2006 10:13:54 AM PDT by pissant

On Monday's Countdown, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann delivered his latest anti-Bush, anti-GOP "Special Comment," (also posted on Countdown's Web site) this time accusing President Bush and Republicans of committing the "dictionary definition" of terrorism in trying to scare Americans into voting for them, even contending that "the leading terrorist group in this country right now is the Republican Party." Olbermann laid blame for the delayed discovery of the remains of 9/11 victims at the feet of President Bush and Republicans. Olbermann: "And yet you can actually claim that you and you alone can protect us from terrorism? You can't even recover our dead from the battlefield, the battlefield in an American city, when we've given you five years and unlimited funds to do so!" (Transcript follows)

Video clip, starting about four minutes into the nearly 11-minute long screed (6:30): Real (4.9 MB at 100 kbps) or Windows Media (4.1 MB at 81 kbps), plus MP3 audio (2.3 MB)

After beginning his "Special Comment" describing an RNC ad displaying the image of Osama bin Laden, Olbermann brought up the dictionary definition of terrorism as he applied the term to the GOP's tactics and labeled the party a terrorist group. Olbermann: "'To fill or overpower with terror; terrify. To coerce by intimidation or fear.' By this definition, the people who put these videos together, first the terrorists and then the administration, whose shared goal is to scare you into panicking instead of thinking, they are the ones terrorizing you. By this definition, the leading terrorist group in this world right now is al-Qaeda. But the leading terrorist group in this country right now is the Republican Party."

Hey Asshat! It's not the Republicans running around like Chicken-Little screaming, "We aren't safe! We aren't safe!" Those would be your party of fear mongering jackasses! Get your facts straight Bozo!

This is just downright irresponsible. No conservative cable show host would get away this crap.

Hey.......I was channel surfing last night and came upon Keith doing his fake indignant routine. The guy is funny to watch,as long as you realize it is comedy. Now I think he is actually trying to outdo himself with righteous anger. He accused the RNC of trying to scare voters, but the hysteria he puts out is trying to do the same thing, only he is too dumb to realize it. He is rapidly becoming a lgend in his own mind.

I saw OB (OB as in Olbermann not Osama bin Laden) rant night... and I've come to the conclusion that closest analog to these unhinged leftist is the Klan with Olbermann as the Grant Klega (Kookga?)

Can any one photo shop a hood for this ahole?

Olbermann suffers from encephalitic putrefaction (brain rot).

And that's on top of being a world-class dip$hit.

Made the mistake of stopping once and watched for a few minutes...the anti Bush rants were unbelievable...even for a moonbat in my opinion.

Forget Keith's mom. I heard she only watches Fox.

Too bad for Keith that she's also a Nielson household.
