K.O....Laura Ingraham's comments "unforgivable, desperate, and STUPID"

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

Her "reporters never leave the hotel balcony" bullshit in the wake of David Bloom's death, and the deaths / maimings of other reporters.

I've NEVER seen Olbermann that angry.

[Minnesota_Lib]

1. He did a fine job of smacking her down.

[calimary]

5. Really? DAMNED GLAD to hear it.

She is just completely rotten. MISERABLE excuse for a human being. So snide and smug. Look up the term "snot-nose" in the dictionary and you'll find her picture there. Yes. If she thinks the other journalists are doing such a poor job over there, why doesn't she get her piss-ant ass over there and show 'em how it's done, 'eh? I'm sure she'd do it all perfectly. And maybe she might even not get half her head shot up like Bob Woodruff did.

She should have her mouth washed out with soap. The woman has a heart like a BB, as my mother would say.

28. It was desperate and stupid sums up Laura Ingraham. n/t

[zulchzulu]

2. She's still mad because of her new bad haircut

I thought she had long hair. Her new doo looks like shit...shows off her horsish ears...I can see why the wench only has purile bullshit spewing out her piehole.

Maybe she got involved in a gang bang at one of those dangerous spots she hung out at. Her mouth looked swollen.

[49jim]

4. I think she is having chemo

for breast cancer.

[calimary]

6. You would think that kind of life-changing ordeal would have made her

a better person. Maybe a TINY bit more compassionate. Maybe a fraction of an ounce more circumspect.

Ahh, no. I guess I confused her with someone who has a heart instead of a lump of coal.

[spooky3]

13. and more interested in authenticity. Amazing.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

29. Whether her demeanor is related to her illness or not...

...she has gotten worse.

I remember her appearances in the past on MSNBC and Fox...usually some kind of snarky, sarcastic "Ann Coulter Lite" waste of five minutes.

My understanding is that she's through with therapy...maybe, maybe not.

But what now stands in her shoes is a hard, cynical, individual who seems...as Keith Olbermann put it last night..."desperate and stupid" for carrying Karl Rove's water.

Having cancer doesn't make someone a good person or a bad person...it makes them a person who has cancer. Ingraham...professionally...sucked before she got sick and sucks now. It's a shame that she became ill and it's a shame that she's not doing something more constructive with her life.

[zulchzulu]

10. Karma is a bitch

Good riddance, Laura.

[bunkerbuster1]

17. umm...

I can't stand the woman, but I'd never wish cancer on anyone.

Anyone.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

3. Laura Ingraham is just another psychotic, mercenary right wing bitch

This is from Wikipedia:

In 2002, David Brock wrote in his book, Blinded by the Right, that while writing for The Dartmouth Review, Ingraham attended meetings of gay student organizations for the purpose of publicly outing them in the newspaper. According to Ingraham, she went to the meetings to report in the newspaper how tuition money was being spent.

[Justice]

7. she had a limited epiphany years later regarding gay life

when she learned her brother was gay.

The compassion she felt toward her brother apparently does not spill over into any other aspect of her life.

[Karenca]

9. Convenient...when it suits her

the bitch.

[zulchzulu]

8. That's all you need to know about her

Publically outing gays for...um...what reason...other than the usual hateful homophobic nature that most Repugs adore...even the self-hating closeted ones...

[Inland]

14. She's angry she lost the job

of blonde right wing harpy to Anne Coulter and is lashing out.

[Stinky The Clown]

11. KO's been en fuego for the last few weeks ... more so than usual

But his words about this loutish, thuggish bitch were spot on, angry, righteous, and most of all ..... heartfelt.

[GalleryGod]

27. Just had to be that Meet-Up with Gallerygod on March 3rd

That set him "ablaze" !? HMMM?

[radio4progressives]

12. damn I guess I missed it.. which segment?

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

15. Right at the top of the show...about 8 minutes in. n/t

[betterdeadthanred]

16. She said in the segment

that she was over in Iraq last month.....where was her taped report? Where are the right winger reports from over there? Does Faux News have nightly reports from Iraq from their reporters? Someone will have to tell me, Faux is not allowed on in this house.

Olbermann was spot on with this tonight and I was damn proud to hear it. These people make me sick. I don't see Limbaugh, I don't see her, I don't see Annarexic Coulter, I don't see Loufah O'Reilly reporting from other there. Bush and his cohorts fly in unannounced in the dark of night, do their little press conference and then get out of dodge. If it's so damn ducky over there, why do they go in Super Top Secret? Bottom line, it's very easy to sit stateside and bitch about the reporting that reporters are getting killed to bring us when it does not suit their agenda. Freeking cowards.

Kudos to Olbermann for also having Helen Thomas on and for pointing out that it has been THREE years since Bush has called on her in a press conference. I did not know that.

I'm sorry Laura I. has cancer but it doesn't rate a pass for her arrogant comments. Karma is indeed, a bitch.

rant over.

[AtomicKitten]

18. cancer?

Well, that explains her weedwacker haircut.

No excuse for being a tool, though. What she said was unconscionable, and she was rightfully nailed for it by Keith.

[betterdeadthanred]

20. She was treated

for breast cancer. Chemo explains the hair. I lost my sis in law to breast cancer last January, I would have thought going through something like that would have made Laura I. act like a decent human being. I thought wrong.

[GoldenOldie]

24. Laura got the full bs treatment in Iraq

She received full body armor complete with professional troops assigned as bodyguards. She got the photo-ops complete with comoflage dress, armor, arms dangling around bodyguards and humvee in background.
No where does she have pics of her interacting with Iraqi locals, children, touring hospitals, schools, shops, etc.

Meanwhile the real war correspondents are confined to hotels and closely monitored in the jail hotels which Laura speaks of.

What a crock of crap she spews.......how many real journalists have died and this brainless twit/whore shits on their sacrifices to bring us the truth. Just another Coulter only she communicates with more sanity?

[Catchawave]

21. Keith was AWESOME tonight

And Laura deserved that bitchslap.
*no offense to cancer victims* <--just trying to play the moderate, heh.

[GregW]

22. I thought the funniest part was ...

... where she challenged NBC to "go out with the American soldiers, go out with the Iraqi military ..."

Guess what Laura ... if things were SO FUCKING GREAT IN IRAQ you wouldn't have to "go out" with a military escort. When she was in Iraq (supposedly) did she "go out" with the military, stay on her balcony, or drive unannounced to a random street corner and start interviewing the "man on the street".

Now that I think of it, being a journalist on your balcony with an American tank nearby isn't something I would necessarily want to do either.

[ruggerson]

23. Keith was being too kind with her

the woman is pond scum

[jarnocan]

25. agree and WHY

are these pond scum types, these outright LIARS given so much time on the mainstream media? We are livng in very scary times. The mainstream media mostly will NOT take responsibility to set the record straight- and to seek out and report the truth. A site that makes a genuine effort to do so- is labled 'liberal' and then just dismissed by many people- no matter how well documented the facts are, like Media Matters. Same as infomation linked to via Michael Moore's site- for example Kevin Philips 'American Dynasty etc.
(Can't wait to read and hear more about his new book)

[blue neen]

26. Keith was spot on in his commentary concerning Ingraham.

She deserved every word of his indignation.
