the same man who was laughing on air in the background while his other kook pal Matthews was trying to make fun of Michelle Bachmann.

speaking of which I noticed the womens groups stayed silent yet again.

Does a womans group on the right exist?
If not then maybe it’s high time to set one upo and make it much bigger than a handful of dykey looking women in a group named NOW

Ethics are for Republicans only, silly.

I actually would rather these dirtbags be allowed to contribute to campaigns. It just provides more transparency to who they really are. It doesn’t make them more “objective” to stop them from making contributions. It just gives their bosses more cover. F* the cover. Let’s have the truth.

“I did not privately or publicly encourage anyone else to donate to these campaigns, nor to any others in this election or any previous ones, nor have I previously donated to any political campaign at any level,” Olbermann said.

That's odd, did anyone ask him if he privately encouraged anyone else to donate? This requires more investigation.

“NBC” and “ethics” cannot be used in the same sentence.

Wouldn't this ethics rule only apply to journalist? If so, what's the big deal about Olbermann or any at MSNBC donating, when were any of them considered journalist?
