Olbermann right on target again

I agree with pretty much everything Olbermann says, but man is he ever full of himself.

What He Is Full of Is Passion and Righteous Indignation

Those emotions may be a bit too hot for so cool a medium as television, but they are entirely appropriate. In more honest times this is how most people of influence spoke about issues of vital importance.

Full of himself?

He's the only guy on television with the balls to say what we all agree with, and he's somehow full of himself? Maybe you're just a tad too cynical.

Delusional blatherers like Bill O'Reilly are full of themselves. Someone who speaks the truth, even if they do it with a high degree of passion, is not. It's called righteous indignation, and I wish more god damn people would remember how it's done and fight this stupid administration rather than burying their heads in the sand.

Maybe we do need a draft to make people give a shit, because we've all obviously been brain washed to only think of public policy's effect on ourselves, rather than the entire Nation.
