Olbermann and Alter “Older, whiter… more stupid.” Meltdown with Keith Olbermann, Part 2.
NewsReal Blog ^ | September 7, 2009 | David Forsmark

If you heard the words “older, whiter and more stupid” emanate from the mouths of MSNBC’s lead hatemonger Keith Olbermann and Newsweek’s leftist reporter Jonathan Alter Friday night, you might have had one of two reactions:

  1. It was a weird bit of self-description
  2. Move along, nothing to see here, folks, MSNBC long ago declared itself Home of the Race Card with this little bit of nonsense:

Sometimes I fear this description may also apply to me, as Keith and company are keeping me plenty busy indoors and away from sunlight lately, responding to their daily rhetorical outrages; and also because as I’m watching them, I can feel brain cells deciding the pain is too great and yelling “goodbye cruel world” by the score.

But actually, Olbermann and Alter were taking out after those who protested President Obama’s nationwide speech to the nation’s elementary schools. Of course, nearly every other news-talk-show host—even the liberals like Chris Matthews—mentioned the “mistake” made by the Department of Education for putting out study materials that asked kids to ponder how to “help the President achieve his goals.” Not Olbermann and Alter, though. No, as far as they were concerned, there was absolutely no reason other than paranoia and ignorance to be suspicious of the Obama speech.

Playing the race card every single time leads to deafness.

I’m pretty deaf right now.

He looks like he should have been hanging out with Steve Martin and Dan Akroyd as one of the wild and crazy guys.

"Older,whiter and more stupid"?
Impossible.
They've pegged the stupid meter.
If stupid were a country,they'd be the goodwill ambassadors.
They make stupid look smart.

More unintentional, self-effacing, ironic comedy by one of the best of the left.

Actually, this race hate thing being tossed at eldery white people puts their lives in danger.

The eldery care workforce employs to care for the vulnerable eldery. With the left targeting eldery white people with racism and blame they are inspiring racist hate and abuse.

Just like the white Klan, race hate out of the left produces racial victims of jacked up racists. Eldery white Americans don’t need to be the target of this race hate.
