Just when one thinks BumLay Keithie can’t get any more childish . . .

If Comcast wants that franchise to survive, it’s going to have to blow up the whole thing and start over.Perhaps try to be a truly neutral all news operation in the tradition of dinosaur NBC news and what CNN originally purported itself to be.

The left, and their silly apologists get more Naziesque by the day. Americans are beginning to see it, and are responding by turning the channel to FOX.

Olberwoman is a good part of the reason why so very few people watch MSNBC.

If it wasn't for FR, I wouldn't know what this guy says or that he even exists. He sounds like a real turd.

Wait...Glenn Beck did play a clip from this guy's show the other day. It may have been this piece. The guy went on for many, many unpleasant minutes about the minutae of his father's discussions with doctors about treatment...to the point of being embarrassing to his father. Keith then proceeded to lambaste Republicans, saying that without Obamacare patients will not be able to consult with their doctors about treatment.

So he was screeching about Republicans stopping a patient from getting the ability to do something that Keith proves they already have. And he has no idea that Obamacare would actually end that by making government the decision maker.

Which I think explains why I've never watched him.

He did mention a visit to the ER resulted in the Docs recommending a 72 hour hold.

Apparently he IS certifiable.

I’m getting sick of being called subhuman by leftist scum. I usually let it roll off my back but it is really beginning to piss me off!

Just remember that it's a manifestation of projection by the leftists.

[John-Irish]

No, he needs to have his ass kicked royally.

[roses of sharon]

This has to be the first time in my 30 years of engaging in political debate that someone with any kind of national platform has denied the humanity of an ideological opponent.

????? What do you think they did to GWB and Cheney? For years they have been accused of being murderers, war criminals, of sending soldiers to their deaths for personal financial gain, of lying to go to war, of being sinister and corrupt, stealing elections, leaking intell to kill CIA operatives......

And we let them get away with it, and now they turn their propaganda against the American people (tea parties).

No, he needs to be made poor. Keith fancies himself among the intelligentsia, with his SUNY @ Cornell Degree. Those of us who went to the College of Arts & Sciences view him as little more than trailer trash.

[Hamilcar_Barca]

General Electric should be broken up. A multi-national conglomerate that can lose hundred of millions $ on the MSNBC left-wing propaganda channel and never miss it. As a major government contractor it can influence government policy thru the news (i.e. global warming hoax) and then reap billions in contracts.

Hey, how much is your guys check from the insurance companies?

I gotta figure out why I'm not getting one since they are paying me to be racist and hate all things obama just because he is black... well, sorta black... I think.

And for the love of God, who gets on TV and rants like a lunatic giving in great detail the pains his own father is suffering in the name of politics?

This guy gets exactly what he deserves. I'd say we need to pull him off the air... but he basically already is. What better way to squelch someone than give them their own show on that MSNBC.

[TexasFreeper2009]

lets see ...

the left wants to enslave people, BUT provide them with free food, housing, and medical care just like any good slave owner should...

and the right wants people to be FREE to succeed or fail on their own merits, free from government nanny-state tyranny...

And WE are the ghouls?

[Brugmansian]

OLBERMANN: … the protests of these sub- humans who get paid by the insurance companies…

Vasily Grossman on the left wing “activists” who helped the Soviet secret police murder millions:

“They looked on the so-called ‘kulaks’ as cattle, swine, loathsome, repulsive: they had no souls; they stank; they all had venereal diseases; they were enemies of the people and exploited the labour of others... And there was no pity for them. They were not human beings . . .”

[Sunshine Sister]

See a shrink? I say lock him up!

[The Duke]

He has proclaimed them “Astroturf” and paid lackeys of the insurance companies before.

Wha!!! - I was supposed to get PAID!!!??? :O

[Nickname]

No doubt that Olbermann believes it with all of his heart and, if he has one, soul. He’d probably volunteer to fire up the ovens given the chance.

[vpintheak]

Yeah, the people who want abortion at any cost, without parental notification are NOT the ghouls. Right Keith.

Still owned (in part) by General Electric.

I keep hearing references to GE having a zero book value after liabilities. For example this article...

Here are the core facts: GE owes its creditors $518 billion. That is not a misprint. It owns tangible net assets of only $17 billion. Thus, on a tangible basis, it is currently leveraged by more than 30-to-1. That's unheard of for a major industrial company. A 3.3% decline in the value of its asset base would wipe out all of its tangible equity. But here's the real problem. Last quarter, the company produced $2 million in operating income. Again, that's not a misprint. On $17 billion in assets, the company earned only $2 million. So... what will happen to GE if (or when) the free market sets its borrowing costs?
