Mr. President, the war isn’t about you — or golf
MSNBC/Countdown ^ | May 14, 2008 | Keith Olbermann

Posted on 05/15/2008 7:10:18 AM PDT by Born In America

President Bush has resorted anew to the sleaziest fear-mongering and mass manipulation of an administration and public life dedicated to realizing the lowest of our expectations. And he has now applied these poisons to the 2008 presidential election, on behalf of the party at whose center he and John McCain lurk.

Mr. Bush has predicted that the election of a Democratic president could "eventually lead to another attack on the United States." This ludicrous, infuriating, holier-than-thou and most importantly bone-headedly wrong statement came during a May 13 interview with Politico.com and online users of Yahoo.

Olberman is a shabby little man protected by his 5-million dollar a year salary. He’s an elitist who has no grasp of what us real folks go through on a daily basis. MSNBC should be held accountable for his reckless commentary.

In other words, he would be mocked as a selfish, heartless bastard if he was photographed playing golf while soldiers were dying; or he's a selfish, heartless bastard who, by giving up golf, trivializes the soldiers and their families with trite symbolism

Or he's a boob for equating his giving up golf with their sacrifice.

Keith Oberbamaman, Are you too, ascribing to Amanutjob of Iran's way of denying holocaust???? Take a look at the victims of Sadam's gassing of its citizens... How do you blame this on President Bush? What s next you nutjob, are you going to blame the deaths from the China Earthquake on President Bush?

There are thousands of more pictures of the massacres of Saddam's own people by his hands...but who has the stomach for it. Who has the courage to fight off such an evil man..not you Oberbaman

In November 2007, British newspaper The Daily Telegraph placed Keith Olbermann at #67 on their Top 100 list of most influential US liberals. They said that he uses his MSNBC show to promote, “an increasingly strident liberal agenda.” They added that he would be, “a force on the Left for some time to come.” Investigative journalist Robert Parry has characterized Olbermann as being on the “left side of the scale.”

Olbermann has refused to “pigeonhole” himself politically, stating, “I’m not a liberal, I’m an American.”

The proof is in Olberman you are a liberal pig.

““cold-blooded killers who will kill people to achieve their political objectives?”

At first I thought he was talking about the Clintons, frankly.

It is terrifying and scary that the rest of the world does not react the way we do to such an outrage.

The lesson to be drawn is that a man like George Bush is utterly defenseless against this kind of demagoguery. George Bush did not have the stomach to fight his corner except at his own election time, never did, never will. Neither did his father.

Ronald Reagan had the ability to finesse these demagogues. But, alas, we live in a different age. No one who had his seat before a national television camera would have dared speak of a President of the United States the way Keith Olbermann blackguards Bush. Much of that is Bush's fault. The rest of the fault is the fault of the culture.

So, with no one to defend the culture and no one to defend the right, not even the President of the United States, we lost the election in Mississippi yesterday and in November we're going to lose the election across the board .

We lost the election partly because we lost the culture. We lost the culture because we could not speak out. We had a president who simply could not use the bully pulpit. We had a party without a cause, without a center, and without a spokesman. Without a higher power, they gave themselves over to Bael. Just as we lost the election in Mississippi, we will be wiped out of the House beyond the ability to make an echo. We will probably be wiped out of the Senate beyond the ability to filibuster-no matter, there are no Republicans in the Senate with the balls to filibuster anyway. The Supreme Court will be torqued away from us. We are being driven from every Statehouse in the land.

We have already lost the armatures of government like the State Department and the CIA and the various cash registers of government like HUD which administers hundreds of billions of dollars.

The nongovernmental institutions of America have been taken over: the National Council of churches? A Marxist organization. The Ford foundation, the Rockefeller foundation, the MacArthur foundation? These institutions have been given over to the Socialists. Our universities, the great universities in the world dedicated to truth? They are utterly Marxist! From K-1 through post-doctorate degree our children unwittingly are indoctrinated into the new political correctness. THE FRANKFURT SCHOOL.

There is nothing to stop them now but the media, Keith Olbermann's media.

In short, there is nothing to stop them now.

You could not be more right. The gradual decay in our culture, idealogical view and ability for conservatives to reach the mass of people in the country is, I fear gone. At least gone for the moment. I fear we are on track to adopt the failures of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. We are destined to repeat the mistakes of those former societies until we realize we may lose the country created by our fore fathers.

National pride is no longer a moral commodity rather it is a an anathema that will in the future be completely removed from our society. It may not fully complete its course in my lifetime but, it certainly will in my children's children's lifetime. I only pray the GOD of our creation will save us from complete elimination by those who would seek our destruction either from within or outside our sovereignty....

Didn’t this guy used to do sports on ESPN? If so, since when did he become an expert on foreign policy?

He is a very angry person. I wonder where all this anger come from in Mr. O?

I pity him. He is a sad shadow of a man.


In order:

He did.
He didn’t.
He is.
He angry.
He pitiful.
He sucks.

A person can’t speak such vile bile day after day without it affecting his own innards. Eventually it will get to Mr. O.

“Mr. Bush has predicted that the election of a Democratic president could “eventually lead to another attack on the United States.”

Guess what Doberman...we’re going to blame Obambi for any terrorist attack on his watch.

“cold-blooded killers who will kill people to achieve their political objectives?”

Like the senate who authorized the use of force?

Doberman needs to Spitzered.
