Keith Olbermann Coined General ‘Betray Us,’ Not MoveOn

While right-thinking people across the fruited plain cast their anger at MoveOn for its disgraceful ad placed in Monday's New York Times, "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann should be sharing the dishonor.

As adroitly identified at Olbermann Watch Wednesday: "Long before the moveon [sic] ‘Betray Us' advertisement, back on August 16th, the infamous, deplorable Keith Olbermann began his ‘newscast' in the usual fashion, bellowing the opening spiel."

Taken directly from MSNBC.com's transcript that evening (emphasis added):

Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow? The Petraeus report, less Petraeus, more betrayaeus (ph). The definitive assessment of the surge will not only not be written by General Petraeus, it will not be presented by General Petraeus. Secretaries Gates and Rice will be the messengers. The White House insists General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker will be there to testify.

Furthermore, as he began his report, the picture to the above-right was displayed.

Does this make Olbermann the Worst Person in the World?

While he should definitely be dishonored Keith the Bedwetter is watched by no one. A baker's dozen of slobbering Demokratz and MSM surrender monkeys do read the NY Slimes.

OBLermann knows of this cockpunch they speak of?

[gusopol3]

speaking of Sunday night football, did you see him waving that red phone around and calling himself the world’s worst person in his debut a week ago? It was pitiful— I almost started a vanity thread to see if anybody else saw it. If Limbaugh got fired the first week for offending sensibilities, Olbermann should have been fired the first week for offending intelligence. Costas just looked at him when he was done, like “what did I do to myself, bringing this jerk on board?”

[Duncan Hunter] Of course on the side where the democrats put their political hat on, and that is with respect to policy in Iraq.  Obviously the person calling the shots there is Nancy Pelosi.  And I think she is calling the wrong shots.  I thought the statement by the democrat whip, Jim Clyburn, who said, "good news from General Petraeus in September would be bad news for the democrat party". The idea that good news off the battlefield is bad for a political party in the United States, I thought that was a tragedy that that statement was made and a sorry reflection on the fact that the democrats look at Iraq not through the prism of national interests; but through the prism of politics.  That is bad for our country.

I like that great old Senator Henry 'Scoop' Jackson who was one of the great democrat strong defense leaders of our time.  He said, 'in time of war national policy should emanate from our shore with one voice'.  He liked to arm wrestle over spending on transportation and other things; but he supported the President in matters of national security.  And the idea that the democrats are pulling away from us even before General Petraeus has made his statement, prepping the ground for the statement, that is a tragedy for our country.

Who is Olbermann? Does he still have a show? He is not worth a worry. I’ve picked things out of my nose with more substance than him.

[freekitty]

Keith is an oink oink.

[kinghorse]

refer to the evil bizitch as OBLermann pronounced OhBeeElberman.

[InvisibleChurch]

That’s just a ploy to allow him to attack others... he’ll say, “Hey, I was the first one I attacked. Can’t you take a joke?”

[Rummyfan]

Thankfully I missed that!

[RichInOC]

If true, KO needs to leave nicknaming to those who are good at it. Like his former colleague Chris Berman.

[elcid1970]

Good work, kiddo! He knows he is not universally loved.

But the best way to dismiss K-OlderMan is with a mean right hook to that perfectly confected grille of his.

With one’s weight behind it.

I type this time and again here........so what it is Olbermann, if not him it would be another..The point is NBC called Petraeus a traitor.......AGAIN, IT WAS NBC THAT CALLED THE GENERAL A TRAITOR

[gusopol3]

probably he’s playing to 50 X his usual boutique audience, so I doubt he’ll be letting the spit fly anyway.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

He is much more than just a punk and a traitor, but that is a very good start! You are dead right. The jerk really is a bully and a punk. Maybe a gun-toting jealous husband will be in his future... I can only hope.

I hate bullies and punks.

Boycott Sunday night football until this ass monkey is removed

Olbermann should be hung for treason (among other reasons).
