Looks like Keith Olbermann is getting defensive about his policy of prohibiting any guests on his show who disagree with him. An MSNBC Countdown promo features Olbermann making an absurd non sequitur of an argument in defending his echo-chamber approach.
Keith claims he asks questions "to find out if I'm wildly incorrect about something," ignoring the obvious: that he's unlikely to find out if he's wrong if he hand picks guests who think he's right!

Keith hasn’t figured out yet that someday the power from above will not agree with his right to be such a jerk.
There may no longer be much hope that he will be anything else, either:
"... imagine one day waking up from the awful dream of being, say, Keith Olbermann. The worse the dream, the less likely it is that the person will awaken from it, since the shame would be too overwhelming. Thus, they defend against shame -- for they still have an inchoate awareness of it, and in Keith Olbermann's case, he oozes it -- by building an even stronger fortress against it. To quote the philosopher Butthead, this type of person is always trying to "run away from his bunghole." ~ GagdadBob 05/04/2010
I remember when Keith used to be intentionally funny.
If you insisted on putting that to its proper use, you would drown Uberdork...
I know people who actually like Olbermann.
