My dear late father used to say that whenever a person's reaction is disproportionate to the stimulus, something else is at work. Keith Olbermann's "Worsting" of Ann Coulter on last night's Countdown [video] is a good illustration of the principle. Olbermann ostensibly awarded Ann his "Worst Person" for what was, after all, a rather mild swipe at Rachel Maddow, a tongue-in-cheek reference to her "raw sex appeal."
So what had really gotten under Olby's skin? What caused him to refer to Ann as "putrid and evil"? Reference to the Coulter column in question reveals this paragraph, that Olbermann pointedly omitted from his Worst Person spiel:
"Soon we'll only hear about Keith when his creepy e-mails using his mother's death to hit on chicks start making the rounds again. (Tip to Keith: When a girl refuses to give you her phone number, her assistant's phone number or her personal e-mail address, and only gives you her assistant's e-mail address, you're not halfway in the sack.)"

They also could not survive, let alone thrive, if not for the good fortune of being born at a point in history where total jokes like him, Bill Maher, Barack Obama, etc, etc are able to exploit the lack of moral compass in our society to their advantage.
GOSH!!!!Ain’t he the cutest thang. Maybe he’d have better luck with Bawney Frank.
Introducing the 2009 Olbermann. Designed to go places where no sensible douchebag would dare to go. Ideal for enemas!
That is a water bottle for biking.
Loved the article. Spilling the Merlot right after opening it really hit the funnybone. Great metaphor!
We get a kick out of telling customers this when they shop in our pharmacy.
Why isn’t Ann on Twitter? She’s *brilliant* at one liners!
Hmmm. Page 6 says he had unsatisfactory one-night stands with seven women? There must be a lot of gluttons for punishment out there.
But,but,but he has the ‘highest viewership in the younger demographic’.
Olby is such a tool. Ben Affleck had him down pat!
They are part of the General Electric conglomerate, which is tied to liberal commitment to the global warming hoax for the success of its investment in the farce of large scale wind turbines.
GE's committed to using their other enterprises, (i.e. NBC), first and foremost as propaganda outlets to help those who can be of help to them politically, and harm those who can't.
Olberman is just one of the tools they're using. The fact that he's overpaid and able to pretend he's somebody in of little consequence in the process.
He'll be cast aside like yesterday's paper when he's deemed no longer of any use.
I’d say this publicly debunks the rumor that Olby “dated” Ann.
A lov'em & leave'em, well almost love'em, kinda guy.
It needs a thread of its own.

Keith gets low ratings in bed

Ahhh, from 2006. Ann hit a nerve it seems. hehe
There is so much personal ‘dirt’ to be exposed relating to those on the left, far more than anything being discussed about our side. Good for Ann to bring this stuff into the open. Maybe someone else will have enough guts to follow suit.
There is another story floating around about back when he was doing on air updates. He was due in front of the camera in a few minutes and was nowhere to be seen. They finally found him curled up under his desk crying. His internet girlfriend, whom he had never met in person, broke up with him. Someone else had to do the updates.
Just a rumor, of course.
Be nice. You wouldn't want to make the princess cry.
He is one of the ugliest lesbians that I have ever seen.
It’s actually what my mom called an “enema bag.” It was also used for douches.
If you DO use it for drinking water while biking, don’t use it for those other purposes FIRST. Makes the water taste funny.
