Weird Liberal Head reports the news of the day, demands the re-instation of Keith Olbermann, the boycott of MSNBC and possibly NBC till that happens, the firing of MSNBC president Phil Griffin, and threatens the Blue Dogs with a primary challenges if they do not support Nancy Pelosi as Minority Leader (her challenger, Heath Shuler, is going to get a primary challenge I can assure you).
I was going to wait until Monday, but I want MSNBC to know we mean business, and I am calling for the boycott today. No more talking. No more waiting. Write a letter, call MSNBC. Sign this petition to get Keith back:

The time for action is NOW!
Liberals, we must not admit defeat on this. If we cannot depend on Keith, who can we depend on? MSNBC President Phil Griffin and his hypocritical stance(s) on campaign donations? The Blue Dogs, who are actively trying to sabotage and destroy the liberal agenda? The Republicans, who are more interested in their own re-elections and beating Obama than in America and the American people? Thank God Rachel Maddow is standing up against this hypocrisy, this outrage! On MCNBC, it's OK for Scarborough and Buchanan to donate to Republicans, just not for Mr. Olbermann to donate to Democrats?
MSNBC is cleaning house. You mark my words, it'll be Rachel Maddow next.

2. WLH, why don't you post a link to the petition in a seperate thread.

Just a suggestion. Very important stuff and I think that it deserves a thread of it's own.
