Olbermann’s Opinion of Republicans

Written by PeacockWatch on November 3, 2009.

It interesting that MSNBC can jump on the bandwagon criticizing Fox News for not being a news bureau. Keith Olbermann’s program on November 2nd was an amazing display of being an excellent and dogmatic spokesperson for the Democratic Party. MSNBC should actually be paid for the service they perform for the White House. Oh, we almost forgot. MSNBC is owned by GE so they are, in effect, being paid by the White House. After all, hasn’t Jeffrey Immelt, GE’s CEO, spent several nights at the White House (along with George Soros). Perhaps that explains everything. We wonder what happened to the principle of not only avoiding impropriety but also avoiding the appearance of impropriety.

Olbermann performed his usual great service on behalf of the Democratic Party by launching attack after attack on Sarah Palin who he calls that hockey mom from the north. That wouldn’t be a sexist comment, would it, Keith? I’m sure it wasn’t because you criticized sexism so strongly later in your Democratic Party promotion hour.

Keith Olbermann goes on later to say that Scozzofava dropped out of the upstate New York race because of poor fund raising and influence from Sarah Palin who he defined as Miss Hateful and Divisive. He goes on to wonder why Palin pushed another Republican woman off the cliff. I guess he didn’t figure out what most others found to be obvious. Scozzofava is a Democrat trying unsuccessfully to disguise herself as a Republican. Guess you missed that Keith.

Olbermann and MSNBC are so far left that they think Sarah Palin is far right. This got PeacockWatch to thinking about the perspective of MSNBC. Indeed, during the program these MSNBC spokespeople for Obama opined about how Obama is reaching out to moderates. That finally explains everything. MSNBC and the White House are so far left that they think left of center Democrats are moderates. Perhaps we need to refer to history for perspective. Didn’t Obama have the most liberal voting record in the Senate? Of course, that was only true when he voted. If the people that Obama is reaching out to are moderates instead of liberals then he must have very short arms or Obama and his team can only be defined as Socialists. Or perhaps they are much farther to the left than Socialists since so many members of the White House inner circle are professed Marxists. No wonder Olbermann and MSNBC and the White House think Palin is far right. I once worked with someone who was very far left. When I told him that he was clearly a far left liberal he responded that he was insulted, that liberals are far too conservative and that he was a socialist. At least he knew what he was and was honest about it.

This all helps PeacockWatch to understand the opinion expressed during Olbermann’s hour of liberal power that the Republican Party has declared war on moderates. Particularly pithy was the MSNBC observation that the Republican Party is not big enough for the Twitter and Facebook poster child from the north and Scozzafava. If moderates are defined as those who Obama is reaching out to then Olbermann is probably right. There is no room for those types of moderates in the traditional Republican Party.

Olbermann’s perspective is made clearer minute after minute and night after night. One of his pronouncements this night is that the Republican Party doesn’t qualify for party status when only 19% of Americans are Republican. Pew strongly disagrees with Olbermann by a large margin. Learn to use Google, Keith.

This last bit of time with Olbermann and MSNBC has been like a trip through the looking glass. Watch out, Alice.
