Video: Olbermann donates to Clinton’s charity — on camera (SUPREME Barf Alert!)
Hot Air ^ | September 22, 2006 | AllahPundit

Who thinks it’s a good idea to videotape his charitable acts and air them on his television show?

A smug, shameless douche with a pathological need for approval, that’s who.

You won’t believe what I’m about to tell you, but the on-camera donation isn’t the most repulsive part of this clip. That honor’s reserved for what Olby has to say about Chris Wallace’s interview with Clinton — an interview that hasn’t aired yet and which Olby almost certainly hasn’t seen.

Johnny Dollar, as always, has a superb recap of the show along with a partial transcription. As you read it, keep in mind that MSNBC advertised tonight’s program by promising that Keith would ask Clinton “the tough questions.”

You'll have to go to Hot Air to watch the video because it is one of those embedded thingees. BTW, be sure to hold the barf bag ready when Keith tearily grandstands by making his on air donation to his interviewee. Tough questions there, Keith.

Keithy is really trying to outdo Monica, isn't he.

I an only imagine the love shared in the green room!

Obby surely brought his knee-pads along with his check for his idol.

I thought Keith's impersonation of Monica was spot on.

I just hope his "Uncle Bill" was thoughtful enough to give little Keith a thank you cigar.

How in the HELL does PMSNBC let him get away with the crap he passes off as news? He sucked on ESPN and last I knew doesn't know how to drive.

This partisan loudmouth Olbermann is a demagogue !

Someone should find out where he lives and mail him a Ted Kazcinski letter . .

I think by posting this article you are doing just as Olbermann would want.
He and his ilk do these antics to attract more viewers and, according to some pollsters from yesterday, this scheme works for them.
The less said about these liberal twits the better.

Except you are watching a video clip, NOT the show. I consider this an EXPOSURE of the incredible bias of Olbermann. It is something that has to be SEEN to be believed. No one rational watching this won't think Keith was grandstanding and sucking up to Clinton.

Do you have a link for that?

And I also highly doubt your contention, PMSNBC is the celler dweller in the cable 24/7 ratings, and keithy trying to outdo Monica, ain't going to help those ratings.

Wouldn't it be funny if the SUM TOTAL of all Keith Olbermann's charitable donations this year was what he handed over to Clinton in his tearful grandstand manner?

Maybe he wept because the piggy bank which contained the 943 pennies he amassed since childhood was empty for the first time. Wonder if he asked for a receipt or made him sign an I.O.U.?

IRS auditor: 'So what's this $9.43 deduction you list here?'
O: 'Had to write off a bad debt.'

Dick Cheney gave $8M to charity last year - with no fanfare. Class - some have it, some don't.

KO doesn't report news, he editorializes.
