I heard Olby will be on the view Monday
I wonder, no! I hope he brings this ratings garbage of his on the show and Hasselback says WTF? Keith you're talking jack!
Remember folks, I don't think he will be allowed to bring his Teleprompter with him.
I've never watched the View but, I think I might tune in Monday.

Johnny,
Today on Morning Joe, Joe used language that was very out of place.
Is this final stage in moving Joe "to the center" (as liberals would describe it..)?

Newsbusters has the bit on Joe's indiscretion this morning but didn't seem to get that Joe was repeating a line from a story about Rahm Emanuel that Jay Carney evidently told off-air.
I'm not buying Joe's explanation that his lapse was an accident. Joe must be trying to make some inroads into K.O.'s Kos Kid/Moveon.org eternal adolescent audience. With that level of decorum, they'll be attracted like flies...

So, what I predicted was correct: Keith Olbermann is not going anywhere. He will always be there to be a thorn in conservatives', News Corp's, Rupert Murdoch's, Fox News', and Bill O'Reilly's paws for years to come. And there is nothing that can be done to stop him. No over-the-top Special Komment will do him in. No masturbatory joke about a conservative (Rich Lowry) will end his career. He will be around FOREVER! And we have to eat it.

By "eat it," I mean "deal with it." He's the resident far-left bully. Adjust! (Does "adjust" sound familiar? It does to me.)

Mike,
You're looking at this all wrong.
If Keith Olbermann weren't real, conservatives would have to invent him...
He does more to advance the worst of leftwing stereotypes than a nut house full of Patricks and Patsys.

Mike,
Was it not only a one year extension, just enough to get him through the next presidential election?

At 7:30 this morning, "F&F" poked fun at CNN's hologram feature. Steve Doocy appeared in a separate studio as a slightly-higher-pitched mini-hologram. Do you have video of that, Johnny?

It was KeithO, but the extension indicates that they're really not going to fire him.

Anyone here pick up the November 2008 issue of Mad Magazine? It has a parody of Olbermann in it.

Yeah, I left a comment a couple of weeks ago at Olbywatch mentioning the Countdown parody in MAD. Noone cared.
