"bombastic ass" is not the antidote to "boorish ass" (why Olbermann Cannot Do Cleanup for Matthews)

Olbermann is now claiming that he never called Malkin an 'idiot'.

I distinctly remember him making some smart ass remark when the show opened that included the word idiot.

I've checked the transcript and there is no record of the opening remark, just his standard opening, "Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow?".

In his blog, he says that he went and checked the transcript to see if he called her an idiot and of course couldn't find it. This gives him an out when he's caught.

Did any Freeper waste video tape on this loser?

Self-serving, falsified reports sent up the chain of command appears to have been the Kerry m.o. in Vietnam.
How many more examples are there, I wonder...


Navy Veteran Van Odell Responds to Kerry

Statement by Navy Veteran Van Odell, Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, in Rebuttal to Michael Dobbs, Washington Post, August 19, 2004

 

A courageous, soft spoken man of the Midwest, Larry Thurlow has a heart bigger than the great plains and a commitment to truth and honesty that is boundless. He is under attack, because John Kerry is feeling the heat of truth at the hands of this honest man and others like him.

The Kerry Campaign is attacking the truthfulness of this man and the Bronze Star he so richly deserves for his actions on March 13, 1969. I was there. I saw what happened.

The mine's detonation lifted PCF-3 completely out of the water just yards ahead of me. All boats commenced suppression fire in case enemy small arms fire ensued. None did.

All boats came to the aid of PCF-3, except one: John Kerry's boat. Kerry fled.

Larry Thurlow piloted his boat straight toward the mine-damaged PCF-3 from which thick, black smoke billowed. He jumped aboard and personally led damage control operations that saved the boat and rescue operations that saved the lives of badly wounded men. Larry's leadership was in the highest traditions of the naval service. His leadership allowed the other men and boats of the mission to exit the river safely.

This "single act of meritorious service" -- the chief requirement of the Bronze Star -- should be honored, not ridiculed, by the Kerry campaign and its allies in the mainstream media.

To reiterate, only one enemy weapon was deployed that day -- the command-detonated submerged mine that disabled PCF-3. Larry Thurlow's citation contained references to "enemy small arms and automatic weapons fire," because that was the language chosen by John Kerry who penned the "spot report" on the action that day. There was no "enemy small arms and automatic weapons fire" received that day. John Kerry's report was fiction -- a hoax on the entire chain of command.

Larry Thurlow's heroism and meritorious service, however, is real. To me Larry is one of the heroes of our country. He is a man who served his country when called and who returned home to be a productive citizen. Larry and men like him are the strong backbone of our society. I am proud to have served with him.

LOL...I try not to waste a minute of my life watching MSNBC and/or CNBC, let alone taping a DOLT like Olberman; however, I'm pretty sure Limbaugh's staff records most of these shows. They had Matthews' hijacking of his Malkin interview and ChrissieBoy sounded like a fool!! Perhaps they caught Olberman in his lie, too.

Good morning.

All excellent questions. Needless to say, the alphabet soup will ignore them (along with the nytlatwp). If journalism was a true profession, all the anchors (and editors) would be fined for malpractice.

Why don't Matthews and Olbermann have the intellectual curiosity, if not the professional ethics, to subject John Kerry to the same relentless inquisition to which they so casually subject his swift boat accusers?

Weenie Boy Olberman had the broken, crass, debilitated balls to call Michelle Malkin an idiot the other night.

He and Chrissy 'Spitball' Matthews should stay out of dark alleys for the next few YEARS!
