... how about next time you read your rhetoric before you spit it out! Maybe double check to make sure that in a twenty minute period you don't contradict yourself!
I noticed this slight problem the other night while looking for coverage of the Tea Parties. I turned on MSNBC to see that Keith Olbermann was on giving his 5 stories of the day (and by 5 stories I mean 5 talking points of the Democratic Party). Wanting to see an argument that was contrary to my own and wanting to maybe see how the other party thinks I kept watching. Needless, to say I was baffled and here is why...
Olbermann Story #5: Texas wants to secede from the Union! Basically, he misinterpreted the governor asserting state sovereignty as a sign that Texas wants to secede. He had on a guest and laughed at how stupid right-wing nutjobs are in Texas. However, he pandered to the left with the argument stating that the governor was merely trying to appeal to the right-wing extremists who make up his party and trying to garner their support for votes in the upcoming election.
Olbermann Story #3: twenty minutes later... Once again he is on with a guest laughing at how stupid conservatives are! This time he was discussing how stupid it was that the right was "crying" about a new report by the Department of Homeland Security labeling right-wing extremism to terrorism. They laughed together about how apparently the GOP is trying to tie itself to right-wing extremism in order to come off as a victim and garner support for its cause. According to him, the GOP does not contain right-wing extremists.
Whoa wait a second didn't Olbermann say that the Texas GOP consisted of right-wing extremist just twenty minutes prior? Yes... yes he did. Good job Keith Olbermann at not checking your work before you read it and giving an unbiased opinion on something.
