Video: Countdown with Keith Olbermann – Special Comment on Hillary Clinton’s Assassination Remarks

by John Little on 24/05/2008

I’m not exactly fond of Olbermann. I think he’s a tool, actually. But watching him go off on Hillary is entertaining enough:

This, Senator, is too much.

Because a senator – a politician – a person – who can let hang in mid-air the prospect that she might just be sticking around in part, just in case the other guy gets shot – has no business being, and no capacity to be, the President of the United States.

Good night and good luck.

The Clinton campaign has to be hoping that this will fade away over the long weekend. I don’t expect that to happen.

This isn’t going to fade away any more than the Obama-Wright thing, and it doesn’t need to go away, we have to keep on exposing the Dems, and showing it over and over after they expose themselves, for the duplicitous degenerates that they truly are…

Keith Olbermann, WE WOULD FORGIVE YOU if YOU dropped out of TELEVISION forever…MANY “people are calling for you to STEP DOWN”.
Get a life or something like that.
You’re worse than a scorned, hormmonal woman on steroids!

Hooray for KO! We LOVE his brave tell it like it is. He is the face of leadership that the Dem Party elders ate up a long time ago. The Democratic Party elders and super-delegates should read these posts to understand why they MUST step in now to end the race. The Clintons have successfully incited their supporters and divided the party and nation into hate-Obama and hate-Clinton factions. Hillary’s negative polls must be somewhere close to Bush’s–she is clearly not electable. But she is rapidly making Obama perhaps not electable either–what with all the s**t she is throwing at him–the race and gender accusations, the fear-mongering, the assassination threat (to be read as not-so-hidden appeal to someone’s evil side), etc. Lady Hillary Macbeth must be lead out of the stage before blood runs on her hands. It may even now be too late.

Unusually forthright commentary from Mr. Olbermann but the more disturbing thought is what people in the Clinton group may not be saying publicly. Someone who thinks about the death of their opponent as one way to win a contest takes the Tanya Harding principle too far and thus ought not to be worthy of a position as their understudy (Vice-president) unless Obama subscribes to the theory of “keeping your enemies close”. Juxtaposing the 68 tragic event with this 08 contest might be food for thought to some Wacko and thus unforgivable.

Hillary Clinton can make a few remarks and it’s HEADLINE NEWS- but strangely, Barack Obama got a complete FREE PASS on sitting in the pews of his radical preacher.
Can anyone seriously think that she is implying anything about Obama…JEEZ!
As for Olbie- he should go back to ESPN if he wants to be JOHN MADDEN.
The guy is a jerk…what’ he have, 2-300 viewers at best-
during “SWEEPS”!!!

Huge Keith Olberman fan. No one does it better. Thanks again.

Keith Olberman can really lay it on the line! While I doubt Senator Clinton’s intention of any harm, her reference to “assassination” questions her judgement and common sense! The Clintons could care less about the Democratic party, only their power and greed! It appears they are willing to have McCain elected for another four years of McBush then support any chance of “Change” as expressed by Senator Obama! How sad and tragic for the nation!

hey keith, next time you try and bad-mouth mccain about voting down those bills for the vets make sure you also report WHY he did it. i know you are in love with the sound with your own voice, but you are the one who needs to grow up. he voted down those bills beause the didn’t have the measures that the vets wanted. you are just as bad as the democrats who wear a cheap flag pin and think they are patriots. you make me sick!! quit news, because you suck at it!!!
