OLBERMANN'S PLASTIC IVY
by Ann Coulter
March 4, 2009
Fortunately, we have Keith Olbermann to point out that Rush Limbaugh did not accurately quote the preamble to the Constitution in his CPAC speech last weekend. I'm not sure what scam Olbermann imagined Rush was trying to put over on the American people by saying conservatives believed in the "preamble to the Constitution" and then quoting words from the Declaration of Independence -- but Olbermann put an end to that cruel deception!
These small-time opportunities to show off by correcting someone else's teeny-tiny mistakes are the lifeblood of Olbermann's MSNBC show, "Countdown." Olbermann is no more capable of not correcting Rep. Charlie Rangel when he said "inferred," but meant "implied," than an obsessive compulsive could pass a sink without washing his hands.
There is utterly no purpose to these lame "gotchas," except that Olbermann is so desperately insecure that he is willing to waste valuable airtime in order to convince other status-conscious idiots that he is, like, scary-smart.
Olbermann relentlessly attacked low-level Bush administration employee Monica Goodling for not going to a name-dropping college, saying -- approximately 1 million times -- that she got her law degree "by sending 100 box tops to Religious Lunatic University."
I would venture to say that the students at Goodling's law school at Regent University are far more impressive than those at the Cornell agriculture school -- the land-grant, non-Ivy League school Keith attended.
I wouldn't mention it, except that Olbermann savages anyone who didn't go to an impressive college. As it happens, he didn't go to an impressive college, either.
If you've ever watched any three nights of his show, you know that Olbermann went to Cornell. But he always forgets to mention that he went to the school that offers classes in milking and bovine management.
Indeed, Keith is constantly lying about his nonexistent "Ivy League" education, boasting to Playboy magazine, for example: "My Ivy League education taught me how to cut corners, skim books and take an idea and write 15 pages on it, and also how to work all day at the Cornell radio station and never actually go to class."
Except Keith didn't go to the Ivy League Cornell; he went to the Old MacDonald Cornell.
The real Cornell, the School of Arts and Sciences (average SAT: 1,325; acceptance rate: 1 in 6 applicants), is the only Ivy League school at Cornell and the only one that grants a Bachelor of Arts degree.
Keith went to an affiliated state college at Cornell, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (average SAT: about that of pulling guards at the University of South Carolina; acceptance rate: 1 of every 1.01 applicants).
Olbermann's incessant lying about having an "Ivy League education" when he went to the non-Ivy League ag school at Cornell would be like a graduate of the Yale locksmithing school boasting about being a "Yale man."
Among the graduates of the Ivy League Cornell are Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Thomas Pynchon, Paul Wolfowitz, E.B. White, Sanford I. Weill, Floyd Abrams, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Ginsburg, Janet Reno, Henry Heimlich and Harold Bloom.
Graduates of the ag school include David LeNeveu of the Anaheim Ducks, Mitch Carefoot of the Phoenix RoadRunners, Darren Eliot, former professional hockey player, and Joe Nieuwendyk, multiple Stanley Cup winner.
One begins to understand why Harvard students threw a chicken on the ice during Cornell's famous rout of Harvard at a 1973 hockey game.
If you actually want to pursue a career related to agriculture, there is no better school than the Cornell ag school. I have nothing but admiration for the farmers and aspiring veterinarians at the ag school. They didn't go there just to have "Cornell" on their resumes.

I’ve always suspected Keith Olbermann was a complete fraud. Glad to know my instincts were totally correct!

K. Olbermann is Coulters punching bag today! It's about time someone started looking at some of these media grubs in the light of day. They love to dig up dirt on conservatives and then crawl back under the rock they came from. We need to start exposing their own secrets and lies.

I hope this means they will get rid of him (and the rest of the crew, too) from Sunday Night Football so I don’t have to change the channel anymore at halftime.

This reminds me of a Black guy in my Medical School Class. He told everyone he went to Harvard. We were all impressed until we found out he went to a special summer program for minority students to prep them for Medical School. He made of fool of himself.

Continuing the vivisection of Keith Olberman:
“Finally, you can stop pretending that you went to the hard-to-get-into Cornell.
“Now you won’t have to quickly change the subject whenever people idly remark that they didn’t know it was possible to major in “communications” at an Ivy League school.”
“No longer will you have to aggressively bring up Cornell when it has nothing to do with the conversation.”
“Relax, Keith. Now you can let people like you for you. “
Whew! I’m glad I don’t have Ann Coulter after me!

I'm not sure what scam Olbermann imagined Rush was trying to put over on the American people by saying conservatives believed in the "preamble to the Constitution" and then quoting words from the Declaration of Independence -- but Olbermann put an end to that cruel deception! In the movie, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, there's a similar error in the script. Pompey is taking classes from Ransom Stoddard (Stewart's character.)
I'm quoting from memory, so may be slightly off:
Pompey: "It was writ by Mr. Thomas Jefferson of Virginia."
Stoddard: "Written, Pompey."
Pompey: "And it was called the Declaration of Independence."
Stoddard: "The Constitution."
Pompey: "And it goes like this: We hold these truths to be self-evident..."
It's one of those little errors in a movie that shows up on movie trivia sites sometimes. When I heard Rush make the error, the first thing I thought of was the movie.
