    I called Keith Olbermann out on DKOS for this

    Keith can't have it both ways. He gets on every night and just rips into "Fixed News" for being nothing more than a propaganda outlet for the Bush Administration. But, at the same time his network (Brian Williams, The Late Tim Russert) continued to spew propaganda without a hint of buyer's remorse. And NBC continues to this day to use General McCaffrey because GE wants the behind the scenes defense contracts that drastically impact the bottom line. The same contracts McCaffery's propaganda helps make possible.

    Keith Olbermann is forever "Keith O The Hypocritical Clown" until he grows a pair and calls NBC out.

    Remember, we tend to hate what we despise in ourselves.

    Maybe you should call Keith out from your pulpit. He was pretty weak last time you called him out on FISA. But, this is beyond weak.

    It's pure hypocrisy and Keith O is as guilty as anyone.
