Familiar Phrase
Whenever I hear a TV talking head say he's looking out for me I must assume he'd also lie about other things.

Bill should credit President Bill Clinton for the phrase as well......
I never liked it much either.

Don't worry. Goebbelsmann will blame CNN when he apologizes to the DNC.

That little flub would have the Mutts screeching if it had been a democrat.

Speaking of Bill Clinton, rumor is that Keith Olbermann is pushing to replace Bill O'Reilly with Clinton at the Help Alexa event. Topic: Keep plenty of Ice oh hand. ....developing...

Well, I am not sure what it means, but Bill O'Reilly's picture has been taken off the IT HAPPENED TO ALEXA website home page and there is no mention of him being the guest speaker at the upcoming fundraiser.

Perhaps Keith Olbermann got his pound of cold flesh in revenge afterall.
A real shame if it is true.

Thank goodness for moderated comments....The correct homepage for the foundation is now coming up and Bill O'Reilly is listed as the 2009 speaker. Wendy Murphy was last years key noter. Sorry about that.

On the topic of the year-old web announcement. Imagine if that got sent over to HuffPo, or it's counterparts....WOW! funny things would happen.

If you want a sterling example of the blinkered narcissism of Keith Olbermann, look to last night's WPITW award to Bill O'Reilly.
To a national tv audience Olbermann whined that O'REILLY has dragged rape victim rights advocate Wendy Murphy into the fray!
Could this man be any more indifferent to his own maliciousness?!
No, Keith, that Murphy is now embroiled in one of the nastiest controversies you've ever initiated, is YOUR doing!

and once again Olbermann's first run can't even beat BORs rerun. I pity the poor MSNBC flunkie who walks by Olby's office at the wrong moment.

KO has contradicted the howling hounds.
They have been yapping that Murphy is "in it" neck deep with BOR. They seem to think that the two have some scam going and gasp perhaps IHTAF is in cahoots with them or has been conned by them.
I haven't noticed any corrections at the kennel so I wonder what KLO will say tonight.
Cee, my heart is still laying on the floor.

Sorry guys. Honestly, I typed in the website and up came the home page with Wendy Murphy's picture where I saw O'Reilly's yesterday. I clicked on the link and up came the 2008 page. Weird. When I went back after posting here, there was Billo again.
I was about to post the same info at OW, but I caught the error....thankfully before I caused MikeC more anger.
I was hoping Johnny would just ignore my posts! Oh well. Sorry agaib. Have a good weekend.

BOR mentioned his appearance in a few weeks for Alexa Foundation in Palm Beach.
It's wonderful that he is going to help this very worth organization raise lots and lots of dollars. It's interesting that while he's doing that, KO will probably be plotting his next failed attempt to hurt BOR and Alexa.

With Meygn Kelly and Laura Inraham as regular Thursday night guests is it any wonder that The Factor gets it's best numbers on that night. FoxNews is looking at the rest of the stumbling, bumbling pack in the rear view mirror and the gap is growing.

Olbermann is the Hannity of MSNBC. Far too partisan and Maddow always has a smirk on her face. They fit right in with the Mutts, Kos, DU and Huffers.
