When the Wisconsin legislature finally did its job, Keith Olbermann slipped into a manic episode on his blog. Calling it The Suicide of the Republican Party he let loose with pompous hyperbole that would make the best propagandists blush. Lets start from the beginning:
Still having never learned to be calm, retract their claws, and sit around and act rationally in a situation that calls for panic, Wisconsins Republicans and their Corporate Puppeteers tonight guaranteed themselves an unprecedented and disastrous recall next January.
What? Retract their claws and act rationally in a situation that calls for panic? What does that even mean? Anyway, Scott Walker JUST won the election this past November. Is he predicting that the people who voted him into office arent going to come back out for him? Walker can just run on this platform. I think its a winner. Lets continue:
More over, they also guaranteed themselves that any cloak of stealth under which they have operated in their attacks on teachers, firefighters, policemen, unions, and the settled law of collective bargaining, has been stripped away. If you pass a supposedly urgent budget repair bill with key budget components cut from it, you forfeit the fiction that you are doing anything remedial, anything essential, anything except a naked power grab on behalf of corporations who will get the money stolen from organized labor civic or private.
First, firefighters and policemen were exempted. Maybe that has changed, but I doubt it. Second, the attack is on teachers unions, not the teachers themselves. Even so, asking them to pay less than the national average for their pension and health care benefits in exchange for agreeing not to turn around a few years down the road and raid the treasury through collective bargaining isnt an attack.

GOES?
He’s been insane for quite some time...............
Keith needs his ObamaCare now; a padded cell in the White House.
What the F does corporate anything do with government employees?
Please someone tell me someone why if a toilet overflows they call it due to evil corporations?
A corporation would other wise be known as private sector employees who pay salaries and make some kind of stuff. Makes it lots more valuable then government union employees.

Lock him up; And throw away the key. ...
Better yet, put him in a straight jacket in a rubber room with a TV (behind a bulletproof glass shield) permanently tuned to FOX News..................
A couple of them can......that’s about half..............
Thank you Gov. Walker for breathing liberty and individualism into America.
It must be awful to live as a socialist where you are oppressed. It must be awful to live where you are only valued not as a creative individual; but a robot who will only do as told to do. It must be awful to live where only guilt and hate are taught. It must be awful to live where you speak nothing but bad things and lies about others each and every day. It must be awful to come together as a group full of deceit where stealing from and tricking people are the only things they can do. What a dark picture.
Give me freedom as an individual any day. That is America.
...and throw Michael Moore and a pizza in the cell, after neither have eaten for four days.
Is “insaner” a viable word?
Liberal logic: That grand slam increased Braves the lead to 14-2 here in the 7th... that sure pissed off the Phils. Yes, the Braves are doomed now! Feel the fear!
Should be in the Smoky Backroom IMO. I had hoped to never hear another word about this lunatic on FR again.
AGW
Overpopulation
Global Cooling
The dangers of Dihydrogen Monoxide
Time to throw a net over all of them.
“Nurse Ratched, we're gonna need a 55 gallon drum of thorazine over here”
Olbermann went insane long before Scott Walker became governor of Wisconsin.
Corporations will get the money that the tax payers won't pay towards union pensions? OK, I get it now.
Olbermann writes “settled law” like it came down on tablets from Mount Sinai...surely there are some men in white coats actively looking for KO so they can get him back on his meds, right??? Right???
