Olbermann: Special comment about 'sacrifice'
BBC reports Bush will reveal troop surge plan in sacrifice-themed speech
SPECIAL COMMENT
By Keith Olbermann


If in your presence an individual tried to sacrifice an American serviceman or woman, would you intervene?

Would you at least protest?

What if he had already sacrificed 3,003 of them?

What if he had already sacrificed 3,003 of them — and was then to announce his intention to sacrifice hundreds, maybe thousands, more?

This is where we stand tonight with the BBC report of President Bush’s “new Iraq strategy,” and his impending speech to the nation, which, according to a quoted senior American official, will be about troop increases and “sacrifice.”

The president has delayed, dawdled and deferred for the month since the release of the Iraq Study Group.

He has seemingly heard out everybody, and listened to none of them.

If anyone missed this last night, it was one of the best, most moving commentary's to date.
I had tears in my eyes at the end................

1. Keith's all-time best. BEST.

Why don't the rest of the MSM robots share the outrage?

Tweety comes the closest- his response to the "new way forward" on NBC Today was appropriately contemptous.

2. Keith did his best to wake up the rest of America to the Failings of BUSH

The Group Think of the 27% Pubs need to do some serious thinking about their so called hero.

Other Dems might wanna emmulate Keith in similar commentaries/speeches

Its time to PILE ON....get the Bully outta there
