What a doofus. Who LIED continually about anything and Everything everytime he opened his mouth? MAYBE that is why the Impeached President Clinton is having problems with his tongue and speech? Wow! He let out alot of hot air...

Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

So let's get this straight, it's NOT OK for a Fox reporter to question the actions of the Clinton Administration, who just happens to be directly in front of him with the ability defend himself and answer the question... But it IS OK for a news anchor (if you can call him that) Olbermann to lambaste and assess full blame to the Bush Administration without anyone there to offer a rebuttal, right?

What a tool, no wonder he has to drum up artificial conflicts with guys like O'reilly in an attempt to boost ratings.

It wasn't bad for a liberal. as far as the substance, this is exactly what the republicans did during the clinton years. so it's a proven formula. of course, rush and co woulnd't have the guts to do something like this now thought they must know on some level he's right

Lester, it was laughably bad.

Conservatives sure as hell criticized Clinton when he was president, but they did it with intentional humor (which Clinton just made so easy for them) and Clinton actually was guilty of perjury, for one thing.

Olbermann, on the other hand, is nothing more than a pompous haircut.

President Bush and his decision to fight in Iraq and Bill Clinton and his inability to carry out his orders are two entirely different issues. To call the President unamerican is nothing more than a partisanship attack to vent his hatred for President Bush. Unamerican is dishonoring the Oval Office and the lies under oath Bill Clinton continued doing.

perjury. his perjury was honorable. asking him about his penis was the crime.

olberman is right. bin laden was not the biggest issue in 1993 or even 1996. in 2001 there was no question. and bush was fiddling around with cold war missile defense stuff. he wasn't up on what was going on and didn't care to be. I gave him a pass after 9/11, but you look at iraq and katrina, they are part of the same piece. the guy is a walking disaster. who knows what he's got in store for these last two years. being an american under bush is like being in a professional dodge ball league.

"Had I in one moment surrendered all my credibility as a journalist"

As opposed to surrendering it every moment he's on TV

"They had eight months to try"

That line gets me every time.

It's utterly amazing that anyone watches MSNBC. I know we joke about CNN, but MSNBC is just laughable. At least FOX tries to provide a balanced view.

As pompous as Bill O'Reilly, as smug as Jon Stewart, as self-righteous as Al Franken, and as bugshit crazy as Howard Dean. You have to admit, that's damned ambitious of him.

Somebody needs to kick Olberman's ass. Yeah he has the right to spew his venom, but damn it, someone needs to make him pay for it.

Brian B is right! That is Ambitious of him. With all the pompous, smug, self righteous, crazy and I might add white trash Dems out there, that is BOLD! ...

Yeah, Brian hit on the comment of the week.

This is totally unhinged. While I appreciate BrianB's comment, I don't think Howard Dean ever remotely approached anything this completely "bugshit crazy." It is sobering to realize that this deranged rant represents the thinking(I use that term loosely)of a large segment of our country. If this pipsqueak is eager to bare his ass in this way on national television, try to imagine the depths these sort descend to in the privacy of their own thoughts. The pure willful ignorance of this train of thought is staggering, and not a little depressing. The total lack of irony in his venom-spitting nonsense while condemning someone like Chris Wallace, who asked a relatively simple question, and allowed President Clinton all the time he wanted to respond. Olbermann is obviously an educated person, which makes this all the more befuddling. As I said, the comfort level and confidence he displays while uttering this nonsense says volumes about the cocoon/environment surrounding Olbermann. His lunacy is but the tip of an enormous iceberg.

Have to disagree a bit, DBrooks. Dean has approached it.

Haven't we left out a few others who should be considered in those catagories? Katie couric if unleashed looks to me as if she is about to burst at times. Nancy Pelosis favorite subject is Bush Bashing...

Lester - actually, Rush has a rule: if you disagree with him your call goes to the top of the queue, no waiting. If people rarely challenge him, it's not because he screens them out, but because they come off badly in the exchange. And, if you think Rush is an idiot, then you have to ask yourself - what kind of people are calling that can't even outduel Rush?

As for Iraq and Katrina being of a piece, I think you're falling for that whole "weather machine" gag. Contrary to Konspiratist.Kom, the US doesn't have a starship available to beam down medical personnel and emergency supplies. If there's no physical access to the place, it will be slow going to get relief there. And if the city is below sea level and hit by a storm stronger than any other since its founding, it will flood. There's only so much that levees and FEMA and anyone else can do.

You may as well blame the GOP for warts on toads.

PS - when the investigation concerns sexual harrassment, then the man's penis is a relevant topic. Using sex against a subordinate to further one's ambitions is the crime.

"perjury. his perjury was honorable."

I'm sure you got a A+ in situational ethics, lester.

Ha! oooooooooooooooooooooooooh! Roooooooooooooooob!...

nightfly- obviously I meant the response to katrina.

nighfly- how did clinton use sex against a subordinate to further his ambitions?

and what about clarence thomas. you righties gave him a LIFE TIME appointment. long dong silver. and the woman who called him out didn't ask for money and didn't eventually appear in Penthouse.

You know, the more I think about it. Howard Dean really hasn't approached the level that Olberman did. He is more on the Cindy Sheehan level! Yikes!

someone needs to make him pay for it.

As opposed to "get paid for it" I suppose?

I admit olbermann is a geek. certainly no disputing that. but he did handle the faux anthrax thing with aplomb. and what kind of a mental patient would mail something like that into MSNBC? that's like mugging a poet

Yeah, mailing him a white powder was a really sick joke.

Way over the line.

What a seedy guy. He is such a geek creep!
