Just refreshed & they all thought it was a Drudge rumor. Now heads are starting to explode, saying Gregory is for McCain & "boycott MSNBC"!

That seems to be their stock answer to anyone that doesn't agree with them! LOL LOL I suspect it will get hotter over there soon!!!

Wow!!! What a cap to a wonderful weekend!!!

McCain up 54-44 in likely Gallup Daily Poll. 0bambi makes gaffe saying he’s a muslim and making up story that he was considering joining the military and now has to run to Hillary for help in handling Palin. Biden about loses his top in Florida rally & looks tired as he## on Meet The Press.

Plus numerous articles stating Rats are panicking. Gotta love it.

And this, kids, is taken from the New Yecch Slimes article about the shakeup (barf alert):

The change — which comes in the home stretch of the long election cycle — is a direct result of tensions associated with the channel’s perceived shift to the political left.

**PERCEIVED** shift?!! Are they SERIOUS?!! They couldn't have written "BLATANT shift"?

But as the past two weeks have shown, that success has a downside. When the vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin lamented media bias during her speech, attendees of the Republican convention loudly chanted “NBC.”

“What a pathetic, plastic-haired bag of gas”
The only person more unhappy tonight than Olberman is a bald unemployed mannequin and the only thing that might be more humiliating to Keith than loosing his exalted anchor chair would be having to give his hair piece back to it’s rightful owner.

Apparently it was for medical reasons; they apparently had gotten ejaculate in each other’s eyes while watching an Obama speech and have temporarily gone blind.

Is it too late to give Olberman a full injection of Melleril and toss him in a rubber room?

Major Obama gaffe, Zogby and Gallup, Ravens won and now the 2 biggest dopes on TV get fired - what a great day!

Other than the fact that the U.S. taxpayer just got charged for the entire housing bubble/credit bubble fiasco....

I was at church today as well (morning & evening services) but in any case, as I understand there were actually two gaffes that Obambi committed...... well, actually one gaffe and then what appears to be an outright lie.

Barack Obama must need more sleep and after the week he has had he must need a cigarette. The Sainted One was on This Week with George Stephanopoulos and he made two mistakes. The first one dealt with the smears against candidates and Obama stated that the McCain campaign had not brought up “My Muslim faith”. Fortunately for Obama, George Stephanopoulos was there to immediately correct him like a good Democrat and to say "You meant your Christian faith?" to which Obama immediately concurred. Obama went on to say how McCain surrogates had been the ones and completely ignored the fact that Hillary and her peeps were the ones to spread this all over during the primary.

The other item is more than likely an outright lie. Obama was asked if he had ever considered joining the military and he said he had. This little tidbit has NEVER been mentioned during the oh so long campaign and according to the news, Obama did not mention this in either of his books. One would think that might be a big deal. It is likely that Obama is lying about this in order to ingratiate himself with people who actually support the military. The second part of the lie comes in when he said he had to register for the Selective Service when he graduated from high school. There was no registration for the Selective Service when Obama graduated.

The draft and the Selective Service registration were ended by Republican presidents (Nixon and Ford respectively) and the new registration requirement was instituted by a Democrat, Jimmy Carter. Yes, Obama was required to register but he graduated in 1979 and the registration was reinstated in 1980. Therefore, Obama was not required to register when he graduated, as he claims in the interview. He was not required to register until a year later.

George Stephanopoulos of course did not correct Obamamessiah on that fact and simply let that error stand as if it were the truth.

I wonder if Brokaw might have had some input in this decision.
