5. He, in no uncertain terms, justifiably excoriates the pig.
  I have seen a butcher at a side of meat waste more strokes than Olberman tonight. Every word, carefully chosen. Every cut, unhindered by political sinew or gristle and did not stop until the point fractured bone.

  Do not give me more Olbermanns: Give me more Americans willing to listen to him and to kindle a fire in their own heart. With enough fires we just may see our way out of the darkness that has fallen over this nation.

16. Nicely put. No wonder you like his writing. Yours is also a thing of
loveliness.

Seems like Keith brings out the best and greatest eloquence in people.

6. DAMN, is he good!
Intelligent, thought provoking, well spoken. Almost reminds me of that extinct species, the journalist.

15. Tell me about it! Brilliant. Again. Every time, and I do mean
EVERY time I see him, I don't think he can top himself. And EVERY time, I'm wrong. Although he may have to work pretty hard to top tonight's commentary. He just gets better and better by the day.

8. All around superb piece,
I liked the way he quoted Rod Serling's Twilight Zone.

A masterful unspoken ending was there, too, I believe, when KO said,

"Mr. Bush, may America forgive you."


it begs the addition -


"Because I, for one, will certainly not."

9. Oh my God...
Succinct, exact, perfectly correct. I am crying.

Crying...for all that we have lost in the last five years.

13. He has
picked up the mantle of Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite.

I may finally start watching TV again.

14. Pulled me back from the edge.
I'm back. Thanks to every DUer who wrote me and responded to my intimate post about surviving 9/11 while losing family and friends. I'm a little bit embarassed. You're good people. :grouphug:

I'm never sick of being reminded how a nightmare of unimaginable proportions - Friends and colleagues are still dying from the after effects - was turned into a constant razor sharp stick being poked into each and every one of us every day.

Watch the video. Recharge your batteries. Spread the Truth!



and let Keith know: kolbermann@msnbc.com

18. Best damn thing I've seen and heard in years!
I'd suggest a DU campaign to write to Keith and thank him, I did. I wrote a 2 page e-mail thanking him and wishing him well for being a true patriot. This is some good stuff.
