I wanted to watch the MSNBC coverage and see the dynamics between Huckabee and Olbermann, but hungry people intervened.
The Kos Kids being who they are,...they are going to demand that Olbermann make some sort of overt "hold your nose" gesture towards Huck and so far Olbermann has consistently condescended to their wishes.
Anyone have any info on how cordial things were for Huckabee?

Oh, no. Mike Huckabee is officially an MSNBC analyst. I guess we'll never see him on FNC again. Too bad.

I wonder if Huck is being groomed to replacement Scarborough as the house Republican.

There's a huge difference between Huck and Scarborough: Huck likes BOR.

After Scarborough left the screen in a hissy fit over Racahel Maddow, that could only be an improvement, Johnny.

As OS would say SHOCKER!
Tweety had the nerve to insult Al Sharpton by comparing him to the loser and, Hillary. I guess Obama has ushered in a new age when Sharton can be so blatantly insulted on a prime time news show.
It is comforting though to see that not everything has been transformed yet. Some leftists are calling for Tweety to be fired. I know it's not the same as demands for BOR, Rush and Hannity to get the axe but it helps.

Shep's been pretty sick since last night. He did Studio B, but Trace will be doing the Fox Report.

I'm a huge fan of The Factor and its delightfully controversial host, but it didn't stop me from enjoying this inventive remix of O'Reilly's Inside Edition gaffe...

Well, I don't appreciate the language and I'm not a fan of his now, but I do appreciate the fact that I had no idea how good looking O'Reilly was in his younger days.

I felt bad laughing, but that's hilarious. Luckily, the real thing is coming up in eight minutes.
Oh, no. Not another Special Ed. Comment. In short, bits and pieces of Mike Allen's interview with Pres. Bush for Yahoo News are taken out of context and bashed hysterically and melodramatically. OlbyWatch recap later.

Incidentally, the video might be mentioned in "Policing the 'Net." So, be ready for that.

In the "Bill to break silence" link, it says that he'll address the original video tonight. I'm sure Bill won't address the remix.
Cecelia, are you sure you don't just think he's good looking now that you know he's a famous rapper?

I don't know what you're talking about, Cecelia. The explanation from BOR was very brief, but put the mini-internet/far-left-driven controversy to rest. And now I can say this: "The end."

I don't know jack bout the "controversy". I was just calling out a fine looking bro.
You gotta problem with that?

Cecelia, I think Mike was addressing the remix video when he mentioned the "real thing is coming up in eight minutes", not your description of O'Reilly's charisma if that's what you were thinking. I'm sure he doesn't have a problem with your personal tastes in men.

I was. Though, technically, it was seven minutes by the time I published.
