Keith is the man! His Special Comments are always right on target. Bush is a foolish fear and war monger and I think that most can see right through his BS.

Thanks Brad and thanks Keith Olbermann. It was way past time for it to be said.

You expressed the thoughts of millions of Americans.

The Amurkans need to know we are on to their fascist problem.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful...!!!

Hugs and kisses for Keith...!

Dreddicated eh?

This old timer was on to him back in '05, remember ?

Liebermann is out stumping for water torture.

Ex-federal prosecutor Sen. Whitehouse points out that is a crime:

A sheriff in a Texas county waterboarded prisoners in order to extract confessions. Count one of the indictment asserted that the defendants conspired to--and this is a quote from the Department's own indictment – “subject prisoners to a suffocating ‘water torture’ ordeal in order to coerce confessions. This generally included the placement of a towel over the nose and mouth of the prisoner and the pouring of water in the towel until the prisoner began to move, jerk, or otherwise indicate he was suffocating and/or drowning.”

The sheriff and his deputies were all convicted by a jury under count one. It didn't end there. The case then went up on appeal, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit rendered a decision. I have in my hands United States of America v. Lee, 744 F.2d 1124, decided in 1984, in which they gave appellate review of these convictions.

Finally, at sentencing, U.S. District Judge James DeAnda's comments, according to the article, were “He told the former Sheriff that he had allowed law enforcement to fall into ‘the hands of a bunch of thugs. The operation down there would embarrass the dictator of a country.’” That is the opinion of a U.S. district court judge at a sentencing on waterboarding.

(Senator Whitehouse, emphasis added).

Yes, Keith is correct, the preznit blush is a lying, fascist, wannabe dictator. Liebermann is a clone and saying this in the shadow of Rep. Lantos's death, who was in the holocaust NAZI camps, is a shame that will follow him into infamy.

Holy Sh**! I thought Keith's head was gonna explode. And now I wonder how this is going to play out. Because I know many of us use the word fascism to describe what is happening, but I'm not sure how it is going to go down when Keith does it on MSNBC.

By the way, has Keith had anything about Sibel Edmunds? That is the safer way to expose "fascism." Just have the whistleblowers exposing it on your show.

Thank God for Keith Olbermann! If we manage to save Freedom in America, Keith and Glenn Greenwald(and this site) deserve a lot of the credit.

I get the feeling, Dumbya would murder all of us who exposes the truth. We went Iraq to spread Democracy, Bullshit. Downing street memo.

The People United Will Never Be Defeated

Common sense says there is no explanation other than election fraud for how GW was "elected." Think back to 2000. There were all those new voters. There was already all that dirt on GW ripping off the Texas people when he owned the Rangers. He was Mr. Death Penalty, even going so far as to make fun of Karla Tucker. He was already an El Busto from Arbusto. It was already apparent that he was a C- student.

I saw Olbermann last night. The GOP is sticking to their script of the war on terror. My humble prediction is the proverbial they want Hillary or McCain as President. I realise Obama has flaws. He leans a bit too right for myself. But he definitely appears as the best choice at this point, imho.

So I could see McCain being elected through fraud. The explanations will be the same. That we are a bitterly divided country, that we are at war against terrorists, that exit polls don't mean squat except for in the Ukraine, yadda, yadda, yadda.

If they can't pull off the McCain thing, then I think the next choice will be Hillary. Maybe she is on the up and up, that myself and others are wrong about her. If McCain becomes President, to me, that means that this country is completely rigged.

We nobodies are making a difference, however. Just keep crossing those t's and dotting those I's, and no DailyCIAKos or Mike Rivero will be able to spin reality successfully. Short term, people like Mr. BradBlog might seem to be obfuscated and whatnot, but long term this place is turning into a monumental exposure of the "free world" being bought and sold through election fraud. Maybe BradBlog doesn't like to come out and say there is all this election fraud going on. But it is fairly obvious. And all this documentation is making a profund difference.

I kept thinking while watching, "Sure sounds like Keith's been reading Dredd."

Wow, I really thought we would never see the day when the "F" Word has been said out loud on the tv news.

Considering that this is the same cable network that fired Phil Donahue after he had the temerity to question the invasion of Iraq, the same network that reportedly required him to book two conservative guests for every liberal, it would seem that maybe MNSBC has grown up.

Maybe now the suits at MSNBC see that chasing the increasingly marginalized, decaying audience of Faux News and trying to emulate Faux's blustering, fact-free programming is NOT the way to go --- and instead decided there was money to be made serving the huge audience out there looking for facts, truth, and blunt logic.

"GW ripping off the Texas people"

Yep, dig this article that indicates ripping off the people is epidemic in Texas, yet it has some side effects.

Ancient #10

Now I am going to have to be careful, but thank you for noting that I do try to resemble that at times.

Wow, Keith and the congress both seeing from our viewpoint and us seeing from theirs on the same day!

Listen, that makes it a time for rejoicing because we are the blog, the mainstream people, and good Americans.

Our mission is to educate the Amurkans to Americanism, or bring them down. Their choice.

Took long enuf for a mainstream media source to say what the alternative news has been saying for many years(before 2005 even !)
Congrats Mr. Olbermann; watch your back because you are now a 'marked man'.

Hmmm... Seems to me F-word always goes hand in hand

with any cm$m P-word ... Propaganda.

Mr. Olbermann* was riveting and I was riveted to the tv. . .

P.S. Update the spell check*

One Hundred Ninety Five republicans voted not to extend the "Protect America Act" in the House. Three did not vote. That is 100% not in support of extending it while preznit blush lies that it was the democrats who endangered America.

What is in clear and present danger of being found out, exposed, and done away with in the upcoming election is Amurka and its preznit blush clone.

Will the real F-word please stand up . . . . . FASCISM . . .

Yep, we westerners tend to look to the old Germany for the prime example of propaganda. A little history from an x-bushie might be instructive:

I remember that my first response to the reports of abuse and torture at Guantanamo Bay was to accuse the accusers of exaggeration or deliberate deception. I didn’t believe America would ever do those things. I’d also supported George W Bush in 2000, believed it necessary to give the president the benefit of the doubt in wartime, and knew Donald Rumsfeld as a friend.

It struck me as a no-brainer that this stuff was being invented by the far left or was part of Al-Qaeda propaganda. After all, they train captives to lie about this stuff, don’t they? Bottom line: I trusted the president in a time of war to obey the rule of law that we were and are defending. And then I was forced to confront the evidence.

(Andrew Sullivan). It is a travesty when the "free press" is forced to look at the evidence. Pray tell, what are they looking at if not at evidence before they publish "news"?

Anyway, he went on to say:

So is “enhanced interrogation” torture? One way to answer this question is to examine history. The phrase has a lineage. Verschärfte Verneh-mung, enhanced or intensified interrogation, was the exact term innovated by the Gestapo to describe what became known as the “third degree”. It left no marks. It included hypothermia, stress positions and long-time sleep deprivation.

(ibid.). Eat your heart out NAZI's, because from henceforth the preznit blush and his loyal bushies (both of them) will be the standard.

Keith is the man!

Have you ever seen so many school yard bullies in one administration?

This country has a bully problem.
