The exact reason Olberman wants Limbaugh and others off the air is because they have numbers he can only dream of. Getting rid of other talk radio people is the next step after Imus. Times are getting more dangerous.

Why have none from the racist right been protested, boycotted or fired?” He then delighted Thursday night when guest Sam Seder, of the far-left Air America Radio, predicted “the next time Limbaugh slips up, which I think is inevitable, I think you're going to see this sort of same type of reaction.”

This really involves self-censorship thru intimidation. KO is letting the Right side of talk radio know that they will be closely monitored and will pay for any "slip up," however that is defined. So much for free speech from the Stalinist Left.

To ensure an Obama or Clinton victory the leftists think they have to control the media and stifle the voices of reason. Knowing they can grip the the weakminded with global warming and other fallacies, they must feel confident they can pull it off.

The race hustlers and grievance mongers have been coming at Limbaugh with hammers and tongs (and cliches) for so long, he’s essentially immunized from their attacks.

I think the difference between Limbaugh and most of his White critics is that Limbaugh is genuinely color blind; I don’t think he cares a whit about a person’s race. Most White liberals secretly hold Black people in contempt, they ooze patronization and condescension out of every pore.

I think a lot of Black people sense this. Astute con artist like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have made a career out of it, they game the White network execs into ordaining them the spokesmen for the Race, since they willingly adopt the attitudes and postures congenial to the execs’ world view of Blacks as outraged victims.

Clarence Thomas, Professors Sowell and Williams, can all go to the back of the bus, as far as they are concerned.

Olbermann isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. Someone will bait him and in his exhuberance, he’ll slip out with something that’ll relegate himself to the “has-bin”. Imus set himself up by actually thinking he was offering a positive comment on the team's toughness.

**********************************************************

From the April 4 edition of MSNBC’s Imus in the Morning:

IMUS: So, I watched the basketball game last night between — a little bit of Rutgers and Tennessee, the women’s final.

ROSENBERG: Yeah, Tennessee won last night — seventh championship for [Tennessee coach] Pat Summitt, I-Man. They beat Rutgers by 13 points.

IMUS: That’s some rough girls from Rutgers. Man, they got tattoos and — —

McGUIRK: Some hard-core hos.

IMUS: That’s some nappy-headed hos there. I’m gonna tell you that now, man, that’s some — woo. And the girls from Tennessee, they all look cute, you know, so, like — kinda like — I don’t know.

McGUIRK: A Spike Lee thing.

IMUS: Yeah.

McGUIRK: The Jigaboos vs. the Wannabes — that movie that he had.

IMUS: Yeah, it was a tough —

McCORD: Do The Right Thing.

McGUIRK: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

IMUS: I don’t know if I’d have wanted to beat Rutgers or not, but they did, right?

ROSENBERG: It was a tough watch. The more I look at Rutgers, they look exactly like the Toronto Raptors.

IMUS: Well, I guess, yeah.

RUFFINO: Only tougher.

McGUIRK: The [Memphis] Grizzlies would be more appropriate.

************************************************************

It's been my observation those who rush to judgement of someone's error have either been guilty of or are soon to be making the same mistake.

Careful of your six, Olbermann. As with everyone, there's a very vulnerable place on your back you can't easily guard alone.

When Olberman talks, its like a tree falling in the forest when no one is there, he has no audience so his words float to the ground and are absorbed in the muck he has created.

Limbaugh does not offend his listeners, that is the difference.

Olbermann is a blackhead on a gnat's ass.

Totally irrelevant

Leftists rarely win unless they can silence their opponents.

And they know it...

Janeane Garofalo, Sam Seder

Sam Seder's morning show was cancelled by Air America's new owners

On September 1, 2004, Sam Seder was briefly detained by the Secret Service during his live, on-site coverage of the Republican National Convention at Madison Square Garden. Shortly after Zell Miller gave his speech, Seder began searching (with a sign in hand) on the convention floor for a willing homosexual Republican to interview live on radio. It was not long before he was physically removed from the floor and after brief questioning, was asked (or according to some, "strongly encouraged") to leave the convention.

Olbermann and Zahn are humor-challenged since Limbaugh's “Halfrican-American”quip was obviously a play on “African-American,” since Obama had a white mother and an African father, not a charge that he's only half American.

True, but Rush also used the word in reference to Hallie Berry. Her mother was White and her father was Black, but wasn't wasn't an African or from Africa, so she's not a "halfrican" unless all African-Americans are African.

I took it that they could justify their objection on that ground. It's stupid, but with Imus now there's blood in the water and the sharks are circling. If it were Thandie Newton, it wouldn't have been a problem.

Sam Seder

Janeane & I have been friends for many years. At 4am on election night 2000, Janeane had passed out on my couch while I was yelling at the TV that Gore had won and Bush had stolen the election.

Hey Keith, your ratings alone (or lack of them) alone begs to ask the question: “Why is an America-hating talk show host like you who spews hatred for his country on a daily basis on his show still on the air?”

Liberals can easily get rid of their own. They've tried to do the same thing to conservatives for years - and failed. The Left will NEVER understand the secret of talk radio.
