He took on the lies and blivet's** "policies", Faux, and spoke of propoganda.

"To save our country"!

We MUST send our thanks and our thoughts to ALL at MSNBC tonight.

:patriot: Keith!!!!

Here's the transcript, for those who haven't seen it.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15004160/

Just a taste <snip>

The headlines about them are, of course, entirely wrong.

It is not essential that a past president, bullied and sandbagged by a monkey posing as a newscaster, finally lashed back.

It is not important that the current President’s portable public chorus has described his predecessor’s tone as “crazed.”

Our tone should be crazed. The nation’s freedoms are under assault by an administration whose policies can do us as much damage as al Qaida; the nation’s marketplace of ideas is being poisoned by a propaganda company so blatant that Tokyo Rose would’ve quit.

Nonetheless. The headline is this:

Bill Clinton did what almost none of us have done in five years.

He has spoken the truth about 9/11, and the current presidential administration.

Will add C&L link when it is up.

[azmouse]

1. Finally someone is speaking the truth to America!

What a great American Keith is! :patriot:
His speech gave me chills.

[smtpgirl]

2. That WAS TRULY

ONE OF THE BEST COMMENTARIES THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD

KEITH OLBERMAN JUST PUT THE SMACK IN SMACKDOWN!!!!

AWESOME, TOTALLY AWESOME!!!

[BrklynLiberal]

3. My heart is still pounding. Can't wait to see it agian at midnight.

[ChiciB1]

4. Totally Amazing! Will Do MY Job!

Now, it seems we will have to take on JOE SCARBOROUGH! He's actually trying to do HIS OWN job on Clinton right now!

Anyone have links for Scarborough??? We need to set Mr. Joe STRAIGHT! He actually laughed out loud at the Clinton interview! We fight back and HERE THEY GO AGAIN!!!

[rzemanfl]

5. I had e-mails all ready to go with the addresses all ready filled

in. I knew he'd be good, but this was ABSOLUTELY, MINDBOGGLINGLY, FUCKING AMAZING! Scarborough looked like he was having an unexpected colonscopy when his show started.

[ChiciB1]

13. We NEED To Contact Scarborough About How WE Think He's

being such an ASS!! Can't stop talking about Hillary, how this was totally planned hit job!

We're NOT TAKING IT ANYMORE! At least I'm not! Let's send as much mail to Joe as we do to KEITH! Let's light a fire to BURN HIM!!!

[fight4my3sons]

6. Done

[MoonRiver]

7. DONE and kickaroo!

:kick:

[City Lights]

8. I think his latest deserves a phone call.

I'll email too, but I really want to call with my support. Anybody have a phone number for MSNBC? I checked their site but only found email info. Any help is much appreciated. :hi:

[NMDemDist2]

9. done- my email

Keith Olbermann (or as we call him Edward R Olbermann has rapidly become a national treasure. I am constantly amazed at his ability to express so eloquently what I can only sputter in expletives.

Don't ever let him go, our country needs him.

[Patiod]

49. Sorry, Zona, but I believe *I* picked up the Murrow resemblance

first.....

On the night he did his first big Rant, I posted that he had is Edward R Murrow moment that night - that FINALLY someone had stood up and said what needed to be said. Okay, so it was buried deep in one of the 448 threads posted saying "Yay Keith!" that evening and the next. But you obviously read my post #345 on one of those 448 threads, and stole the analogy........;-)

[NMDemDist2]

57. LOL, perhaps, but my DH (who NEVER reads DU) started calling

him that too. so GMTA eh?

:evilgrin:

[onecent]

10. wow. YES Keith...You go fella. we love you.

I sent my emails...LOVE THIS MAN!!

[yy4me]

11. Got my list, going to start my e-mails right after reading

some of your comments. I am in a state of shock and awe. That was the best thing I have ever heard on TV. Thank you Keith.

[brettdale]

12. keep kicked

kick

[Democrat 4 Ever]

33. Well, either MSNBC has been flooded with thousands of emails

and they can't read them all or they don't care to hear from us.

I sent a very polite, nice, short email complimenting Keith's show tonight.

I get back a "receipt" saying email had been deleted without reading. Damn.

I choose to think they are just swamped and can't read them all but damn.

[Cameron27]

14. Sydnie

Are KO's comments being archived here?

[Sydnie]

26. Not that I know of

[Cameron27]

28. Ok, thank you.

[onecent]

15. Done

17. Keith, keith, bo beith, banna nana fo fieth.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!

K E E E E I T H ! ! !

[BlueCentrist]

20. What do you say after a speech like that?

"Thank you" doesn't begin to explain my gratitude.

[raysr]

42. E-mails to all

with a little jab at Scarface. "Why doesn't he get his eyes fixed, is he squinting at the teleprompter?"

[yy4me]

18. E-mails sent to all. I'm too wired to call it quits for the eve.

Not fancy but here is what I wrote:

Keith Olbermanns commentary was the best I have ever heard on television. We need more people in the public eye who are willing to voice a real and untarnished opinion on the state of our country and of this administration. It takes courage and fortitude to face the eyes of the world with truth that will be painful for some to hear and accept. Please Keith, keep up the good fight. We appreciate all your efforts and we support MSNBC in their backing of your right to express your opinion.

[bear425]

19. Here's mine:

Dear Mr. Olbermann:
I have written to thank you before for your recent special commentaries, however, tonight's demands particular praise. You speak for those of us who have no voice; you assert that which others refuse to express. You, Mr. Olbermann, are what we've been dearly waiting for: the voice that will save our country. Don't ever doubt what you have undertaken; don't ever give up.

Most sincerely,
**bear425**

[truebrit71]

21. Done. Here's mine.

Once again Keith Olbermann hits one out of the park. He has FINALLY said what a very large majority of us have known for a vey long time. Rather than accept blame for their inaction prior to 9/11 the bush administration has tried every cynical trick in the book to escape blame and place it on President Clinton. It is no longer working, and at long last there is someone brave enough, someone passionate enough, someone honest enough to speak up and set the record straight.

Keith Olbermann is a national treasure, and is the only journalist currently employed in the corporate media in this country that has the intestinal fortitude to report the news, and speak truth to power.

He is the only reason I watch MSNBC, and has my full support and appreciation for the wonderful job he is doing.

[H2O Man]

22. Very important!

It's is important that we contact MSNBC, and also that we nominate & keep this thread going.

[trayfoot]

23. Sent messages to all links! eom

[shireen]

24. KICK AND RECOMMEND -- put this thread on "greatest" for max exposure! /nt

[quiet.american]

25. Thank you for the transcript link!

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

[NoodleyAppendage]

27. Done. Anyone have a list of their advertisers? We need to target them.

Sending love notes to Keith and MSNBC can't hurt, but the real support letters need to go to each and every advertiser of Keith's show. The Freepers will go for the economic support, so we need to head them off or at least match their avalanche of bullshit.

J

[Sydnie]

29. I will go through the TIVO a bit later and get that list together

You have a great idea there!

[democrank]

30. Keith`s commentary gave me chills.

It felt SOOOOOOOOOO good to hear someone finally say these things.

[brook]

32. Thanks, Sydnie.

Having the addresses included made it so easy to let all of MSNBC know how much Keith is appreciated and how important they are for giving him the platform.

[Imalittleteapot]

34. I'm drained. Saints opening and Keith.

What an emotionally packed evening.

Bravo to Keith. For me, this was his most courageous, emotionally charged and possibly dangerous commentary. I'm beginning to fear for his well being. He defended Bill Clinton!!!!! He smacked Bush!!!! He spanked Wallace and Fox news!!!!

:wow: :applause: :patriot:

Positive comments emailed to all MSNBC addresses.

Bravo to Home of the Dome and it's wonderful pre-game show with Green Day and Bono.

Emailed support for Keith.
He's speaking truth to power!

As for F*X news Samuel Adams had some choice words for the belly crawlers around him too:

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom--go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" Samuel Adams August 1, 1776 State House in Philadelphia
