It isn't all about you, K.O.
Keith, we tuned in because you are/were
one of the only talking heads to
tell the truth about Bush Inc. for
the last eight years.
But don't enlarge a large head by
thinking it's all about you.

26. Awwww, the poor babies, what did he mention?
The fact that she is a clueless moron or the fact that she is a vicious little gold digger. I never apologize or try to minimize the truth, if people don't like it, tough.

You know, this has always been liberalism problem both in politics and theology. They have some great ideas but have absolutely no militancy about them to see them implemented. Conservatism is by it's basic nature, militant, and consequently that is why the run over liberals all the time.

It's time to wake up. If you want to see your ideas prevail you're going to have to be ready to fight for them. That includes pissing some people off from time to time.

well, let's see.....
his point tonight was that if Sarah Palin
had joined ESPN like she wanted to, they
would have likely met and maybe been co-workers.

The other time he was irritating was when
he kept boasting that Sarah Palin called him
evil.

Maybe he just has a thing for Sarah.

14. So you watched the whole show gauging what would piss you off
the most so you could complain...about Palin??? Wow. Think about that.

What about a good part of the show. Consider responding to that, whydoncha?

22. it seems plenty of peeps are wondering what you are going on about
but I just saw upthread that you caught a few seconds of Keith while clicking between channels and based on the sentence fragments heard in those moments decided you needed to start a thread stating how annoying those few seconds were for you. So I get it now.

11. I thought it was a great show, capped off with that bat-sh*t crazy mom who had 6 embryos implanted.
Between the coverage of Obama's meeting with the 9/11 and Cole victims' families, Murdoch as Worst Person in the World, some comments on Palin, and this crazy mother of 14 who will live off the tax-payer's dime, I thought it was a great show, but I always like KO.

16. there is an endliess circus to choose from fortunatley for KO
I like the discussion, but sometimes KO thinks
we want to hear all about him. I don't.
My husband turned KO off during sports chats
for the same reason.

20. Oh, go to bed.
Sometimes Keith gets tickled by coincidences that connect with his life, and he makes it into one of his stories. So what? No skin off your nose...OR your husband's.

21. Much too early....
but thanks for the recommendation.

I'm sure KO is thrilled that he can't be given
advice on this site.

34. You concluded from what people said to you that criticism of KO is taboo here?
Do you get all your exercise from jumping to conclusions?

Of course KO can be given advice here. It just helps if it's GOOD advice.

31. It's been a long day on DU
Between the population control crowd and the lets fire teachers who have strange pictures on their facebook accounts, plus finding out that ZombieHoard values mosquitoes less than all other forms of life.

This thread though, is quite a night-cap.

"ZombieHoard values mosquitoes less than all other forms of life."

:rofl: I've been away for a few days, and somehow missed this! I have no clue what you're talking about, but it too sounds important. :D

36. I know we're not supposed to call people out
but ZombieHoard's profound statement should be known to all.

"I value mosquito life less than non-mosquito life.

To summarize; Human life > non-human/non-mosquito life > mosquito life."

37. Tell me about it.
The difference between Keith and Randi: When Keith fell in love with a woman half his age, it was annoying as hell to hear him go on and on about it on Dan Patrick's show, as if she hooked up with him for any reason other than his money and fame. But now that Randi's in love, we hear about it not only on her radio show, but even on the commercials. (Valentine's Day ad: "Valentine's Day is coming up, and you know what I want? Hint hint, Howard! (brand name) Chocolates!") We also have to hear stuff like, details about every time they had sex. At least we don't get those details from Keith.

There's little in the world more annoying than having to listen to other people rhapsodize about their lovers. Talk about "all about you."

41. I'm with you, realFedup. He's gotten so smug that it's becoming harder to watch him.
He does still have some good stuff, and of course he is only one of two progressives on the major networks, so I'm going to check in every now and then.


Thank Dog we have Rachel.

42. George Bush and Dick Cheney are criminal. Sara Plain is an idiot.
Thank God for Keith Olberman. He is no worse than Rush Limpballs on the conservative side.
It's about damn time that 'it's all about a progressive' than 'it's all about a damn lying fascist propagandist'.
It's all about the people that were incinerated on 9/11 because these criminals ignored direct warnings.
