    Eh. Keth Olberman

    He's a liberal, but he's no less a blowhard than those on the other side. Lots of cheap, easy jokes; overly precious irony; the warmed-over SportsCenter attitude and the righteous indignation of someone lecturing to an empty room. Let him face off against some of these people in person and we'll give him some points.

    Two things, Keith:

    "Worse, worser and worst" is the worst.

    And please, please stop this "I don't want to talk about celebrities but my producers are making me" nonsense. For a guy who claims to hate covering Hollywood you sure do spend a lot of time doing it.
