    I really am NOT a big Olbermann fan, but this is absolutely incredible stuff.

    Sorry for my macular degeneration if this is a d_b.

    Olbermann has as much credibility for the right as O'Reilly does for the left. A blowhard of a different color.

    Cheney is a nazi, don't you think?

    I can't believe I'm even responding to this post, but -- if Cheney starts sending Jews to the gas chamber, you might have a point. Until then, please don't throw around terms like "Nazi" lightly.

    We've had this discussion several times here. Nothing has changed. Nothing is going to change.

    I'm pretty far from being a Cheney fan. But please, can we put away the nazi comparisons, until at least there's some serious ethnic cleansing going on? At this point anyone on the left calling Bush/Cheney et. al. a nazi, or in reverse or whatever, is just offensive.

    If Olbermann is writing that himself — and I don't doubt that he is — he's really got some chops.

    I meant "genocidal maniac"... I mistyped.

    All apologies.

    Yes, at ESPN, Olbermann was famous for defending his women colleagues against predatory swine like... Bill O'Reilly.
    I see all the similarities.

    Olbermann's an excellent writer. Began his career in print, I believe w/UPI. His writing is also what made him good at ESPN.
