Good ratings news for KO-from Today's TVnewser:
www.tvnewser.com:

So Much For The CNN 'Wave'"
...As one insider remarked today. At 8pm on Monday, MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann beat CNN's Paula Zahn Now in the 25-54 demo -- 176,000 to 144,000 viewers -- even though Paula interviewed Moonves, Thornburgh and Boccardi during the hour. Countdown is attracting a lot of coveted 25-54 viewers (relative to its total audience).

During the 8pm hour, though, FNC had a 315% advantage over CNN and a 613% advantage over CNN among total viewers. "Jon Klein must be scratching his head wondering 'Where have all the viewers gone?' as CNN has once again dropped precipitously into a battle with MSNBC for second place," one cable insider said. Some other data to pour over:

[Clark2008]

33. Keith is kicking ass!

Nice to hear!

Paula "News Model" Zahn is boring as hell.

Now, onward and upward - must kick O'Lielly's lying ass!

[hilster]

82. Hear hear!

[Miami Liberal]

105. Woohoooo!

Great news! I bet we're the ones giving him the better ratings.

[Shopaholic]

176. I just wish I knew how to send an e-mail to the head guy at

MSNBC--Rick Kaplan. He needs to know that there are nightly blogs devoted to KO here on DU. That's a fan base!

[Miami Liberal]

186. Gosh, I'd be so embarassed

if KO actually read this crazy girly stuff.

[Catchawave]

5. Here!

[New Earth]

6. ok

i haven't watched him in 2 weeks and i got chinese food coming. i'll put him on. :hi:

[bettyellen]

8. faye! i'm so glad you are here! wOOt!

[RevCheesehead]

11. um, are you lost?

:wow:

[seito]

23. You missed a GOOD one last night

[bettyellen]

81. i told her to look at that thread.. it made me laugh so hard ...

[bettyellen]

7. i missed you guys...

[RevCheesehead]

9. I swear, we ought to make a KO doll...

or maybe a bobblehead? :)

[keepthemhonest]

76. not a blow up? n/t

[Miami Liberal]

138. A life-size model would be better.

:evilgrin:

[keepthemhonest]

172. definately n/t

[crispini]

218. LOL! nt

[DemReadingDU]

10. Checkin In

:loveya:

[Shopaholic]

12. Okay--who brought him the new tie?

I haven't seen that one before. Fashion review for those of you without tv's: gray/green suit, white check-plaid shirt, and purple geometric (also in square check pattern).

[RevCheesehead]

13. I like, I like!

Nice suit, too.

[bear425]

14. Hi there and might I say...

Nice lavender tie!

I kinda like KO in the light suits, too. He would still look good in a pototoe sack.


:loveya:

edit: goin' out to the living room where the teevee lives.

[DemReadingDU]

20. Tie looks purple on my TV, n/t

[bear425]

121. Yea, okay it's purple. I just like the word lavender better... n/t

[sparky_in_ma]

15. The management requests

a few things.

Number One: Only one floaty heart per post. There was a server over-heating problem. When maintenance checked, the cooling fan was found to be clogged with floaty hearts.

Number 2: No swim suit pics. The router port had a swim suit stuck in it. Took 2 hours to get it out.

Thank You for your cooperation.:)

[RevCheesehead]

24. Self-restraint is for sissies.

Keef!!!! :loveya::loveya::loveya:

on edit: the suit might have been mine.

[seito]

26. Danger Will Robinson...lol

[sparky_in_ma]

39. : ) n/t

[Clark2008]

36. Then the management can lose business

We'll post as many floaty hearts as we feel comfortable with or we'll take our business elsewhere!
Market rules!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[crispini]

222. Snerk. Too. Funny.

:evilgrin:

[RevCheesehead]

236. Rumor has it, dear,

that Sparky_in_ma is actually KO!

See post #15, and 80.

[crispini]

246. Ah, easy enough to check,

verify the posting times in the thread against the breaks in the show! :evilgrin:

Anyway, :hi: sparky_in_ma, regardless of whoever you are, and do come back to our delightful little thread, if you can wade through the :loveya: .... the lights are low and the drinks are on us. :)

Didn't realize it was this late. Heading for the TV now.
(Gotta help those ratings, baby!) :loveya:

[Shopaholic]

25. See my earlier post above-

he beat Zahn on CNN last night in the highly coveted 24-55 demo. It seems that he's been killing regularly in that demo.

[seito]

19. Checkin in Rev

[RevCheesehead]

37. seito! you been kickin' ass today!

[Shopaholic]

[RevCheesehead]

42. it looks light brown to me...

are my eyes going crazy?

[Sydnie]

43. I would like to see that shirt and tie with a dark suit yeah I would n/t

[bunny planet]

193. Absolutely I was just thinking that. That combo would be fierce.

ok maybe fierce is not the right word.

[bunny planet]

38. Good evening ladies.

:-)

[seito]

44. Hiya Bunny

:)

[RevCheesehead]

Thumper!

Been thumpin' the opposition lately? :)

[bunny planet]

74. Hey Rev! oh yeah!!! I've been thumpin up a storm

Watch my thump!

[Catchawave]

41. California's seasons....

Cloudy - Dry -hot - wildfires - rain - mudslides.....

I loved it out there for 6 years, but when earthquake became the Seventh Season...no thankee. I'm an East Coastie.

Thank you Keith for interviewing the one guy who said "people choose to live this lifestyle", not that there's anything wrong with that...

[DemReadingDU]

45. My daughter's been in San Francisco for 2 years

She has decided life is better (much cheaper!) in the Midwest!

[Shopaholic]

48. Ooh-ooh-ooh-tease for O'Reilly slam coming up

Love it.

You know O'Reilly & Fox are just jealous because the NBC network and their family of cable stations are going to run this telefon thing live and Fox is doing jack-shit for the tsunami victims.

Tear him a new one KO!

[Greylyn58]

46. Time For Our Nightly Keith Lovefest

I love his purple tie and shirt. That's my favorite color and boy does it look good on him.

I think I like him better in a dark suit though.

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Catchawave]

49. Chertoff....

OMIGAWD, the DUers' Google engines where in overdrive this a.m. !

[Shopaholic]

52. And Media Matters has found a column from 2001 of Armstrong

Williams in which he criticized the NCLB legislation-you know-the one he later got paid for promoting.

[bettyellen]

57. can't this crawford guy sit still,,, looks like he needs some anti-itch

something or other.
yeah
CHALLENGE!!
YES A PROTEST WiTH EVERY * BREATH!
GOOD IDEA KEEF!
:loveya:

[bunny planet]

203. yeah and did he just ask KO out on a mandate with Tony Orlando and Dawn?

and to the coronation/inauguration no less.

[bettyellen]

50. OMG , I have my RL friends calling and coming by-- i don't know if i can

handle the two world colliding.
i feel like such a cheat!

[Shopaholic]

54. You know when I see the letters "RL"--

I always think Ralph Lauren :)

[bettyellen]

60. i used to too. ha! i work in fashion and grew up near ralph lipchitz,,,

[Shopaholic]

66. I love me some Ralph Lauren

I just want to move into one of their ads.

[bettyellen]

73. i have mixed feelings... it's so elitist/ aspirational ...

but then again, some of it's really nice stuff. his manhattan store makes your jaw drop.

[Shopaholic]

96. Yeah--I know--it does appeal to the

upscale wanna be in me. But I love going in that manhattan store! Confession-I buy my Ralph Lauren sheets/towels/house stuff at TJ Maxx & Marshalls. :eyes:

[RevCheesehead]

59. aren't you suddenly developing a cough?

(hack, hack) "sorry, I can't join you right now..."

Whoa. Head trip, BE. Check back here for therapy.

[bettyellen]

65. they have no idea.... and i'm not sure i want them to....

uh oh!

[Clark2008]

51. Hahaha. The inauguration offers something for everyone...

to get upset about.

[DemReadingDU]

53. 52 % approval rating for Bush

No way,

[Sydnie]

55. It's a bogus poll!

no way he went up 4 points in two days!

[DemReadingDU]

Gotta be bogus,

Maybe they want everyone to think the 'coronation' next week is a good thing.

edited to correct typo

[bunny planet]

212. they just flipped the screen like they always do,

the real approval number is the 44% that said disapprove.

[Shopaholic]

56. I just screamed out the words

What the Fuck in my living room. What did he do so spectacular in the last month? Not trip up or fall off his bike.

On Edit--Gallup=GOP

[Catchawave]

58. Craig's NOT confused....

Oooohhhh ladies, a Keith and Craig Sandwich :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Seriously now, Craig hasn't checked the early morning DU-Google team....:::sigh:::

[Shopaholic]

62. So I guess KO's invitation got lost in the mail?

to the inagural? Hee Hee.

[Miami Liberal]

181. You go girl! n/t

[seito]

61. Keef-Inauguration?

Nah :boring: I have something else to do

[keepthemhonest]

102. I heard that Keef is a poster here on DU n/t

[RevCheesehead]

109. you - - well, you have me worried!

[Shopaholic]

114. I'd love to know what his DU name was!

:)

[keepthemhonest]

132. I can't remember too well,my dementia and all

but I think it is something like Sparky somewhere or something like that.:shrug: It's a hard name to remember.

Spelling error edit

[seito]

120. I would not doubt it

:evilgrin:

[Miami Liberal]

164. Say what?

Stop teasing, what's his handle?

[keepthemhonest]

178. Try sparky_in_MA

I think that's it.

[Miami Liberal]

192. LOL! n/t

[RevCheesehead]

198. oh-oh; better look at post #80!

um...
ahh...
yeah.
Hi ya, Keith! :loveya:

[Sydnie]

63. O'Reilly is such a tool! n/t

[Catchawave]

64. O'Reilly MADE ...drumroll...Oddball....

Go Clooney :))) This should be good.

[Shopaholic]

71. A KO/Clooney sandwich sounds

like fun!

[Miami Liberal]

197. Oh yeah!

I'd give a year's worth of my salary for that, okay 2 years. :D

[crispini]

227. Well. Now THAT's a prospect to ...

um....

yeah....

whoo! forgot. how. to. type..... :drooooool:

[Clark2008]

67. Where are Crispini and Patsy?!?!

I may not be here tomorrow - B-day girl - but where are they today?! :(

[bunny planet]

69. Patsy said she had a coop board meeting tonight.

She'll be back tommorrow night. I have to teach tommorrow night so have fun without me.:cry:

[RevCheesehead]

72. Patsy said she had a meeting -

and you know SOMETHING had to keep Crispi away!

So, for you, Crispini, floaty things for Keith:
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

and a pool-pic to boot:

[sparky_in_ma]

80. bad, bad

excessive floaty hearts AND a swim suit!! No soup for you.:toast:

[RevCheesehead]

93. I was posting by proxy...

[Miami Liberal]

144. Yeah, where is crispini?

What's more important than Keef?

[crispini]

225. Oooooooe, Rev!

:yourock: You *know* what a girl likes! :evilgrin: :loveya:

[bettyellen]

75. i was wondering the same thing.... and miami??

[Miami Liberal]

111. Hey girl!

Welcome back!

:hi:

[Miami Liberal]

200. Happy Birthday Clark2008!

:party: :toast:

[Clark2008]

215. One more day, dear

On the 12th. I will be old enough to run for president by the time Keef comes back on the repeat. :)

But thanks!!

[bunny planet]

68. Is it my imagination or does this new Homeland Security chief nominee

look like a cadaver. Where did they dig him up? He is mucho scary, give that man a sandwich for crying out loud.

[Sydnie]

70. I actually thought he looked like the actor from

Angels In America -- the main character that discovers he has aids. He looks like his AZT isn't working anymore, doesn't he?

[Shopaholic]

That's sick

Those ads need to be pulled. Damn-that's kinky.

[Clark2008]

78. He reminds me of this guy:

[Sydnie]

84. Yes!!! Who is that guy?

That has nailed him for sure!

[Clark2008]

92. Nosferatu

Old vampire movie.

[bunny planet]

89. roflmao!!!!!!!

[keepthemhonest]

117. I trust the guy

in the picture you posted more than that NY COp who got canned.

[DemReadingDU]

88. definitely creepy, n/t

[Greylyn58]

99. I thought the same thing

the minute I saw him.

He does look cadaverous. Eewwww!!!!

[DemReadingDU]

77. Is that trick photography?

that girl eating that humonguous hamburger!

[Clark2008]

86. I bet she's popular with the guys

:evilgrin:

[RevCheesehead]

95. LMAO!

I was thinkin' the same thing! :evilgrin:

[Turn CO Blue]

79. I sneaked over to kick. I love reading the KOEB!

Oh yeah, I love Keith, and only got to post my floaties one time...so here I go again!

Keith, you hottie :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

83. Oh, NOoooo!

They kidnapped a smiley! :(

[Shopaholic]

85. Hate it when that happens

But the good news? They only wanted a $800 ransom! :dunce:

[bunny planet]

87. My my what a talented girl in that Burger Commercial!!!!!!!

I wonder if she's on our side.

[Sydnie]

90. She could be *'s intern! no wait -- she would have NO challenge there!

[Shopaholic]

91. Why would we want her on our side?

Just confused. That's just not---right. But I bet she never wants for a date.

On Edit--let's see if she'd volunteer to be *'s intern and "take one for the team"--just so long as she's willing to roll video for the impeachment trial later. :evilgrin:

[bunny planet]

196. she wouldn't need those skills for * I'm assuming.

[noamnety]

94. About that $100

Someone ought to tell the Iraqi journalists what $100 is actually worth nowadays.

[Sydnie]

97. Good -- Armstrong gets what's coming to him

At least they appear to be doing the right thing.

Now Williams, give the money BACK!

[DemReadingDU]

100. Armstrong Williams tells David Corn

There are others. Hmmmm!

[Sydnie]

104. She is making sense

why buy just one when they seem to be so cheap! I bet they own them ALL! Liberal media my ass!

[Shopaholic]

112. Corn was on Al Franken's show

and he retold the same story. Interesting. Very interesting.

[Clark2008]

106. The MEDIA is getting what's coming to THEM

Congressional hearings into rightwing punditry payola.

I hope that Freepers will finally see that the media is NOT liberal - and now we know the reason why: money.

[bunny planet]

210. now if we only could get Rushbo on tape accepting a big bag of cash

that would be sweet.

[noamnety]

107. congessional investigation!

yes! I'm glad to hear that.

On a related note, though this probably isn't the right thread, it would be nice if we had a database of FOIA requests, so we could find out what we want (like who else got that money) without duplicating efforts or cost.

[bettyellen]

119. would it go in the demopedia maybe?

:shrug:

[noamnety]

175. Demopedia might be okay

But there's the risk of a freeper deleting other peoples' entries. It would be better to have a separate content management system where people could edit their own entries, but not other peoples'.

And if I weren't such a slacker, I'd be able to set that up myself. If I'd spent my summer learning PHP instead of stalking Kerry and Edwards with my camera, for example, I'd have something like that set up already.

Another issue (related to that first one) is that we'd have to trust that the people who enter into the database that they've submitted a FOIA request actually did it. I wouldn't want to not submit one based on someone claiming falsely that they did.

[RevCheesehead]

101. So Williams says others do it all the time?!

Time to let out the DU detectives!

[Miami Liberal]

103. Hi Ladies

Is that the same gray suit he always wear?

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[bettyellen]

113. have not heard from you since youwere yelling at me to nap...

last week!
I didn't, but major props for trying!
I gave the KOEB major props for getting my ass on the road to DC!

[Miami Liberal]

130. I gave you a shout out up on this thread

You rock for going to DC!!

BTW, this Monica Novotny chick is too close for comfort to Keef, me no likey.

[RevCheesehead]

148. Yeah, but she's sportin' a BIG diamond on her left hand.

so, she can be a friend.

[Miami Liberal]

189. People divorce all the time

she might get tired of her boring hubby and hook up with our fabulous Keef. :grr:

[Shopaholic]

152. Monica got married last year to some Wall Street Investment

Banker or something. She's harmless. I think. She better be anyway.

[bettyellen]

163. i napped in my room in DC and set the alarm for 8...

so i couldd wake me up to some keef!
that was fun lounging in the room and primping w/ the man on the big screen.
nice interlude in an amazing day...
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[Shopaholic]

150. No--this one looks different to me-

different looking weave in the fabric.

[bettyellen]

108. Political Operatives as journalists....not allowed!

[Sydnie]

110. Now if someone would just tell FOX that! n/t

[bettyellen]

116. ya think! KO said it last night... i read it on yesterday's thread.

fun and educational.
hubba hubba
:love ya:

[DemReadingDU]

115. O'Reilly's a jerk

turning the Tsunami into a story about himself, so says Keef.

[Sydnie]

118. Countdown to O'Reilly

They are getting their money's worth from that graphic! LOL I love it!

[DemReadingDU]

122. which graphic was that?

i must have missed it when I was typing

[Sydnie]

124. The little countdown clock in the corner

that first appeared during the phone sex days... he is using it again!

[DemReadingDU]

141. ok I'll be lookin for it next time

[bunny planet]

123. OK, it is confirmed. I officially have a crush on KO now. He has the

sexiest brain and sense of humor on the teevee (not that he's got any competition). I don't care if he wears the accountant suit or the dapper don suit. He has won me over. The snarking at O'Leilly just took it over the top for me.

As to the Armstrong Williams scandal.

Exactly how many administration scandals does it take to screw in a lightbulb anyway? There just can't be enough scandals for these guys. The Teflon Presidency, I hope it's wearing thin SOON.

[Swamp Rat]

125. Uh oh! Here comes Pervert O'Lielly

[DemReadingDU]

133. OMG

that is perverted (just like O'Reilly)

[Clark2008]

136. We're guessing he's going to cause lightening, maybe locusts

Hahahaha, "Bizarre Fox host..."

ROFLMAO!!

Keith's on a rant!

[bunny planet]

149. give a person a warning first before you post this..........

:puke: I'm gonna hurl!

[bunny planet]

211. oh they removed the green slimey O'Leilly pic so I hurled for nothing.

[Swamp Rat]

216. He's still there.

It just loads slowly. Actually, I was using a new webhost, but I guess they aren't that good. It's hard to find free webhosts that will keep my pics. ;)

[bunny planet]

223. ok now that is seriously unkind to do to anyone this close to bedtime.

eeeeeek!

[RevCheesehead]

126. They named the Tumor???

Now that's creative!

[Shopaholic]

131. That poor kid

that's so sad. This woman has been selling off their household possessions on ebay to pay their medical bills. Now let's talk about WHY they needed to do that--the Bush health care plan=selling your possessions on E-Bay.

[Sydnie]

135. Cheney told us there was always Ebay -- guess this is what he meant

[Clark2008]

146. Well, Cheney approves of that sort of thing

Making money off of e-bay.

:eyes:

[Greylyn58]

166. Lord ain't that the truth n/t

[noamnety]

127. "You can believe or not ..."

"That's the premise of this country."

I love how he works those things in so smoothly. I have so far resisted the lure of the floating hearts, but dang, I liked that remark.

[bettyellen]

134. never resist the urge ....

to give up the love...
here, i'll start:
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[noamnety]

187. Urgh, I can't do it

I think it's the military bearing. Either that, or my victorian prudish ways. I'm much better at staring blankly at people than professing my undying love.

*stares blankly at keith*

[DemReadingDU]

128. A tumor called Frank

now that's creative, in a weird sort of way

[Clark2008]

129. I wonder if I could host an e-bay auction

to raise the more than $4,000 in back child support my ex owes me?

[RevCheesehead]

137. "Loofah-Man!"

Clooney's response: "a chance to put your considerable money where your considerable mouth is."

This is too damned good!

[Kolesar]

140. O'Reilley's "semi-comatose" viewers...LMAO

[bunny planet]

228. that was great. Do you get the impression Keef was in hell when he worked

over at Faux. How long was he there? Poor baby.

[Shopaholic]

142. I loves me some George Clooney too.

KO killed in that segment. Brilliant. Just brilliant. :toast:

[RevCheesehead]

139. Heh - worried that his citizens aren't getting haircuts every 15 days.

At least they have a leader who thinks about his citizens.

[bettyellen]

143. who said that KO eyebrows were like wise and wooly caterpillars........???

i just peed when i read that!
but i think KO did too, becasue they look freshly trimmed!

[rodeodance]

147. I just tuned in as KO was globbering O'Rielly,-way to go!

[bunny planet]

145. How did that strange little man get to run a country?

Oh and how did that other little guy get to run North Korea?

[rodeodance]

151. O'Reilly's ears must be ringing!!

[Miami Liberal]

153. Patsy and crispini

Miss ya ladies. :cry:

[rodeodance]

155. a nice hairdo will save the nation--well that is a new one!!

[RevCheesehead]

154. Now we know why Keith got his hair cut today.

Didn't notice the eyebrows today. Hmmmm...

I keep tellin' y'all: HE READS THIS STUFF!!

Hi, Keith! :hi: :loveya:

[DemReadingDU]

158. Too funny, about hair

Keef's hair good!

[rodeodance]

160. night Keith!! well done.

[Kolesar]

156. Who would have thought it?

Kim Jung Il is a Texas Aggie!

[noamnety]

157. OMG MORAN BOY!

hahahahhaa

[DemReadingDU]

204. found a pic in another thread, Moran

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x278907

[Clark2008]

261. What made me laugh was that he was playing that awful

Lee "Pimpin' My Patriotism For Payola" Greenwood song!!

I hate Lee Greenwood. Pompus ass. We were once at a fundraiser in Pigeon Forge and he was there. There was also a Dolly Parton look-alike working the crowd and he said, in a manner as snoty as the man himself, "I wish I had a look alike to go to these functions..." (implication, "so I don't have to.")

Jerk-off. Short man with tall, fake-boobed, air-headed wife and a big-ass car - you know the type.

[Kolesar]

159. MORANS!

Proof he reads this message board

[bear425]

162. It's settled = proof ko read us!

edit: that was seriously a signal to us. Doncha think?

[Miami Liberal]

173. He's taunting us!

I bet he reads the nightly KOEB threads before he goes to sleep.

[HeeBGBz]

180. That was such a funny surprise!

Moran!!

^5 to KO

It was a great show tonight. My favorite voice in media.

[RevCheesehead]

161. OH MY GOD!!!!

THEY SHOWED THE "MORANS" PHOTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DemReadingDU]

167. which is the morans photo

missed that one too

[Kolesar]

179. DU has an avatar for it

Some prowar fool with a do-rag & mullet locks was holding a sign that says "get a brain, morans" & "go usa". It is now DU lore.

[Sydnie]

168. And I didn't miss it!!!!!!!!

I screamed out loud! I can't believe he used that picture!!

:loveya: Keith!

[Miami Liberal]

169. LMAO!!

Keef's gotta read DU!

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

165. My dog thinks I have lost my mind! Bwahahaha! The MORAN Photo!

[bunny planet]

that was an awesome segment.

And Keef really seemed to be enjoying himself.

Highlights
"put the barber back in barbarism'
"mullet-boy"
and I'm so in love :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:
I can't remember the rest.

[Miami Liberal]

183. Enjoying himself

Hee hee hee

[Sydnie]

185. That was absolutely for our benefit!

that was a shout out to us for sure!

[bunny planet]

188. oh I know, he out snarked himself tonight.

Keef rules!!!!!!!!!

[HeeBGBz]

201. Damn good show tonight

Mentioned the Armstrong Williams thing and brought up the conversation in the Green room with David Corn from the Nation. KO mentioned a congressional investigation.

He dogged O'Lielly.

KO living up to the name.

[Catherine Vincent]

170. LOL!

"GET A BRAIN MORANS!"

[Swamp Rat]

171. HOLY COW! That was hilarious!

I've never watched this show before... they must have some of Jon Stewarts writers. :)

The Dude!... THE DUDE! :D

[Kolesar]

182. Keith has borrowed Jon Stewart's favorite phrase

"ah, not so much"

[Shopaholic]

184. Keith writes like 90% of the show every night HIMSELF.

That's damned impressive!

[Swamp Rat]

191. I'm impressed even if he wrote just 10% of the show

That was damn funny! He MUST be a DUer! :)

He won me over with just the Dude scene, but I couldn't believe I was watching TV by the time he got to the mullets. It was like watching animated DU threads. :D

[Miami Liberal]

202. I read somewhere he writes the whole show himself. n/t

[bunny planet]

206. then I love him even more.

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Clark2008]

221. Writers do it on paper.

:)

So... why Sparky_in_MA - he's not in Massachusetts!

[bunny planet]

174. Didn't the show go amazingly fast tonight. Or is it just getting better so

it seems to be going too fast. I'm verclempt when it's over.

[RevCheesehead]

190. yeah - I always feel like I need a shower or something.

Since I don't smoke.
Oh yeah, it's the internets. I can cyber-smoke! :smoke:

[Deb]

177. Oh I'm soo glad everybody saw that!

KO kicks arse. THE "Moran" photo gets national coverage. Sweet! :D

[bunny planet]

195. he definitely did that for us.

But then lately we've been thinking he does everything for us....
he does, doesn't he?

[Deb]

217. I don't' know

but after the last few days I sure needed something connected with DU to make me laugh. The "Mullet Montage" did it.

[annabanana]

194. I hollared when I saw "our" MORAN!!

If that wasn't a "howdy" I don't know what would be!

[New Earth]

205. i must have missed this 'moran' pic on DU

wtf is it about? when was it posted? why it mean Keith reads this board?

[bunny planet]

199. perky girl had too much eye make-up on tonight.

I forgot to mention that before. (I'm just jealous)

[cry baby]

207. KO rocked tonight, I was laughing out loud!

Lots of really good skewering!!!!!:toast:

[Miami Liberal]

208. Don't know if any of you have noticed yet

Keith has a new blog up. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6210240/

[Shopaholic]

213. Yeah--new blog--

about damned time too-it's been a week since the last one!:bounce:

[noamnety]

219. Thanks!

I've missed the frequent blogs.

I guess if congress is investigating the Department of Propaganda, I don't need to feel obligated to submit some FOIAs after all. That's good, it's probably more responsibility than I can handle.

[crispini]

234. Ooo, fresh blog

My fave bit:

"But what does it say when you’re being investigated for insufficient ethics by Sinclair?"

Now that's some fine snarkitude! :D

[merh]

209. 208 posts in 1.5 hours - are you all going for a record or

something? :shrug:

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

BTW - I love KO - showing the Moran photo was just, well it was so KO! :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[crispini]

214. OMG! This thread really is twice as nice after it's over!

If any of ya'll are left around, :hi:!!! My mom's leaving for Antartica for three weeks tomorrow so I had to go to her send-off dinner. :7

Good work, all. Even without seeing it I believe I got a pretty idea of what's going on, and I am SO looking forward to the re-run.

Now I have to go through the thread again and post LOL everywhere. We were in FINE FORM tonight! I can't BELIEVE he put up the MORANS photo, that is SO a shout-out to DU. W00t! Go us! :evilgrin: Totally EXCELLENT!

Sigh.... Keef.... :loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[DemReadingDU]

220. Antartica?

For work? do people take vacations way down there?

[crispini]

230. Oh, she's TOTALLY going for fun.

They have cruises down there every so often. She has a thing for penguins. And glaciers. And Shackleton. This is actually her second trip, would you believe?

I totally don't get it, :shrug: but I'm glad she gets to fulfill her lifelong dream. (Me, I'd rather spend the money on a big long trip to Europe, with lots of good wine and food and castles and schtuff, but hey-- it takes all kinds, right? :thumbsup:)

[DemReadingDU]

231. Sounds like an awesome trip! n/t

[Patsy Stone]

242. Did you say penguins?

[cry baby]

224. You are definately going to love tonight's show!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[bunny planet]

226. Antarctica...........wow

Tell her to wear a good hat!
I missed you tonight Crispini. I needed your up to the minute 'what he just said' update. Sometimes when I'm running up and down the stairs I miss something, .........or I forget what incredibly witty thing I was going to write in response to the incredibly witty thing that KO just said....

[crispini]

232. Oh, she's talking a big ol' parka.

And I'll be back tomorrow with the play-by-play! :D I'll try to do better, I've been slacking off what with the election fraud coverage dropping off-- so much more fun to just sit around and snark! :evilgrin:

[bunny planet]

241. boo-hoo, I can't be on the thread real time tommorrow night.

have to teach. But I'll definitely check what y'all have been up to when I'm away. and I'll try and watch the rerun.

[Clark2008]

229. Hi crispini!

Missed you, too!

:hi:

I asked where you were! Kisses for crispini's mommy's trip!

[crispini]

233. Awww.... I missed ya'll too!

They had CNN on in the restaurant. I wanted to ask them to change the channel.... :evilgrin:

[Clark2008]

235. Speaking of CNN...

The Wesley Clark blog is reporting that on Inside Politics, someone said that the Big Dawg had asked Wes to run for DNC chair, but he said no, he's running for prez in '08.

While the prospect of that makes my heart go a-flutter, I'm not sure I trust IP to tell me the straight dope on any subject. Judy "Gobbleneck" WoofWoof ain't known for her inside scoops.

[crispini]

238. Ooooeee, I LIKE that rumor.

Clark was always my first choice. :loveya:

and the swimsuit pic doesn't hurt, heh. :evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

240. Hey! My friend's in Antarctica now!

Is your mom going to McMurdo? I wonder if they'll meet. I didn't read down the thread, yet (I just got here a few minutes before you did), so I don't know if you've already explained it or not.

I'll be back after I read. I hate arriving at class unprepared. :)

[bunny planet]

247. Is Antarctica the new hotspot? No pun intended.

I thought it was too cold and there were no buildings.
I am so last year.

[Patsy Stone]

248. Actually

She's been there a bunch of times and it's where she met her husband. You can go there and work for (ewww!) Raytheon. She's a chef and she spends six months down there (or in some cases a year) and they take their time flying back home through Bali and New Zealand and wherever the mood takes them. Last time they went to a Thai Elephant Conservatory. They've been to Angkor Watt and places I can't even remember. They don't spend money on the ice, so they've been able to spend it on traveling and buying real estate in WA.

Pretty sweet actually -- except for the six months of darkness. When she was there for a full year she experienced twilight and dawn for about a month or so each. Beautiful.

I could go on, but I won't. I wouldn't do it, but they enjoy it a lot.

:hi: Sorry I missed the meeting, it looked like fun. :hi:

Edited to correctly spell Angkor Watt.

[crispini]

249. Bwah! nt

[RevCheesehead]

256. Nah, that would be northeast Wisconsin.

They say that by saturday, we'll have wind-chills at -35 degrees!
(sure hope the longjohns are washed!)

[crispini]

250. You know, I don't know.

I think she might be. I'll have to ask. That'd be TOO freakin weird!

[jhain]

237. He makes these days bearable

The way he swore the Williams crap would NOT fade away.
YES!!

[Patsy Stone]

239. (sniff) I missed you guys...

First, there are ENTIRELY too few :loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:in this thread.

Only bunny (sparky(!?)) has been carrying the KOEB tradition with any real Keithgeist tonight. Lord knows I don't have enough :loveya: to cover crispini, but here are some on account :loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

Even though I have not seen Keef yet this evening, it seems his snarkiness was at a good, strong level; everyone agrees he looked damn good in some new green/gray suit; and, apparently, he reads DU! Hi, Keith! :hi: We love you. We do. :loveya:

If it's true you read us, may I draw your attention to an interview you gave to the Online Journalism Review? "Olbermann says he's non-political and won't even vote in elections." http://209.200.80.136/ojr/stories/041130glaser/

Keith, love, bad idea. When you don't vote things like * getting re-elected happen. As we have all found out, it seems they happen when you do vote also, but at least you get the feeling of trying to make a change. C'mon Keith, come with us. You KNOW you want to, we know it, too. There's plenty of room for you under the "big tent." You will just have to wade through all of the :loveya:s to get here.

If I may, a few more requests: We'd love you to blog more frequently and if, you could, please sneak the word "supercalifragilisticexpealadocious," or "antidisestablishmentarianism" in there somehow just because? Thank you, The Management. :)

Good blog line: "In other words, Bill’s thinking about it. Don't hurt yourself, Buddy." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6667405/#050111a) Big KISS!

Back to important matters. Clooney = really, really hot. I didn't need you ladies to tell me this, but I'm glad we see eye to eye on this. Add that to the fact that he's a notorious practical joker with a wicked sense of humor, and well, where do I sign?

I see someone above suggested a Clooney/Keith combo? Certainly a crowd pleaser, but I will remain true to my first husband, Jon Stewart, and KO, if I had to pick from TV newsguys. Stunning, but true, O'Reilly didn't make the cut (loofah or no loofah), and PLEASE, no one post a pool picture of him anywhere near this thread. :)

I'll pop back for second shift duty, provided there isn't a Steven Seagal or Jean-Claude Van Damme (Wham, Bam! Van Damme!) movie on. If there is, the TV will be taken over by the hubby. Here's hoping that doesn't happen.
:toast:

As for my meeting, well, let's just say as I left the room I did get to scream out the phrase, "Oh, just bite me, Bob!" That rarely happens, so I'll call it a good night. :evilgrin:

Glad to be home. I'm sorry I missed you guys (and !) I would much rather have been hanging around with you.

:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[bunny planet]

243. Patsy, I forgot to mention, there was a Big Lebowski clip in the Kim Jung

Ill, haircut segment, what a scream!!!

[Patsy Stone]

244. Like I could love him more... Hi! n/t

[Clark2008]

253. Hi Patsy!

Sorry we had to carry on without you!

And, here: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

I was lax on my duties. I've been laying tile, trying to post and trying to keep up. :) I'll do better.

Not sure if I'll be here tomorrow, since it's my birthday - may have cake and stuff somewheres - not sure. The weather's just icky. I'll have to get home sometime before 9ish to get my son off to bed, so I may pop end toward the end.

I hope you're watching the replay!

[Patsy Stone]

258. Yes. I. am.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! :party: :party:
It's your birthday! It's your birthday! I hope you get lots of nice prezzies. I wish you happiness and Keef. :loveya:

Ah, all is well. After my awful meeting, this is a good place to be.
He looks great and he's having a great night. Nummy.

[Clark2008]

260. Already got bubble bath and candles from my son

Awww - what a good boy!!

:)

(He gave me his early. Got in trouble in school today, so, in an attempt to butter me up for the bad report, he gave me his presents. LOL! It's OK. He threw some food. First bad report all year. His report card was wonderful. I can't complain.)

[Patsy Stone]

262. Understandable

Sometimes one just has to throw food. I could have used a nice cherry pie to throw tonight. So stupid and frustrating. Grrr. But, enough about me.

So, when do you get the time to take the bubble bath? Isn't that the real present? :)

[Patsy Stone]

245. No Keef, but the Dunny Aurora (another miracle of nature) :)

[Patsy Stone]

251. TV Accident! I just saw Hardball. n/t

[Patsy Stone]

252. bunny! You must be so happy

with the tie! I'm so happy for you! Purple is good. Very good.

So, that's a darker gray suit. It's much better than that other one (Hello, Goodwill?).

:loveya: :loveya:

These mudslides are horrible. Worst nightmare? Being buried alive or washed away by a gigantic wave? Hmm. Tough choice.

[crispini]

254. Meh, I still like dark best.

But it IS better than the other one. :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

257. Much, much better. :)

OK, that inauguration story was wonderful. Craig Crawford AGAIN earning his: :loveya:

"Almost half the country doesn't think he can do anything right." I AM NOT alone! :) Mr. "I'm a uniter" is doing a splendid job, no?

[crispini]

255. Dude, that Chertoff guy TOTALLY looks like Nosferatu. nt

[Patsy Stone]

259. Awww, they miss us. That's sweet.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=203&topic_id=278907#278959


:loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

263. Hey, Rev

I didn't get the chance to tell you earlier, but you've done a great job hosting KO Group Therapy tonight. :toast: Cheers, and see you tomorrow. :hi:

Keef:loveya:

[seito]

264. Still at it?

:)

[Patsy Stone]

265. Nope, just thanking the hostess for a lovely time.

What the hell is going on out there? I stopped counting the threads with Kerry in the title and stuck to reading this and staying low -- although I was tempted to post in Faye's thread. Will felt he had to write, so you knows it's hairy. :) See you tomorrow, I'm off to bed.
