Limbaugh, Wizardry, & Breasts. Typical News Day

Keith Olbermann today sums up a typical news day at Fox News. With so much important stuff going on in the world, Fox News cuts through the B.S. and gets right to juicy stuff. Breast size. Yup, that’s what’s important on Fox News Business Channel, a woman who enlarged her breast size to 34FFF!

Yeesh, I’m not even going to comment on that. 34FFF, WTF?

Keith also touched on more important, although only slightly more important issues like Rush Limbaugh’s “Operation Chaos,” and wizardry in the schools of Florida.

IRS Not Real Good Managing Money

Since 2006, private tax collectors hired by the IRS have been paid $86 million to collect unpaid taxes. How much have they recovered so far? $49 million! Yes, that’s right the same wing of the government that cleans out your bank account every year, is taking that money and giving it away to it’s contracted collectors, with getting absolutely nothing to show for it!

Typical government BS. Spend $86 million to recoup $49 million. There has to be a cheaper way to collect these unpaid taxes without breaking the bank? But as Keith explains, its not so important of how much the collectors recoup, but rather who gets to do the recouping.

Seems the FISA Laws Worked OK Before 9/11

Keith Olbermann questions why the pre 9/11 FISA laws seemed to work just fine because according to AG Michael Mukasey, the Government intercepted a phone call from a safe house in Afghanistan to the United States, about 9/11.

Mukasey said at a speech to the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco, March 30,2008:

“Before 9/11, that’s the call that we didn’t know about. We knew that there has been a call from someplace that was known to be a safehouse in Afghanistan. And we knew that it came into the United States. We didn’t know precisely where it went.”

Countdown Special Comment on FISA: President Bush Is A Liar And A Fascist

Keith once again opens up another can of truth for Bush to mull over!

(Please open the article to see the flash file or player.)

You are a liar, Mr. Bush, and after showing some skill at it, you have ceased to even be a very good liar.

And your minions like John Boehner — your Republican congressional crash dummies who just happen to decide to walk out of Congress when a podium-full of microphones await them — they should just keep walking, out of Congress and if possible, out of the country.

For they — and you, sir — have no place in a government of the people, by the people, for the people.

The lot of you, are the symbolic descendants of the despotic middle managers of some banana republic, to whom “Freedom” is an ironic brand name, a word you reach for, when you want to get away with its opposite.

Thus, Mr. Bush, your panoramic invasion of privacy is dressed up as “protecting America.”

The Presidency is now a Criminal Conspiracy

“We’re Americans sir, and we’re better than that. We’re better than you.”

This was from Keith Olbermann’s Special Comment on Torture which aired last night on MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann.

Once again his comment about Bush’s lies, half truths, doublespeak and his Administration’s atrocities reach down one’s throat and gives the soul a squeeze.

Keith has been saying about Bush and his Administration what Congress needs to say, but doesn’t have the spine to.

All one has to do is listen to his words, or read the transcript, and one is forced to ask themselves, “Why is Bush still President? And “Where the hell is Congress?” But the question that gnaws at the conscience the most is “How can we the people allow this to happen?”

Keith is right when he states “We’re Americans, and we’re better than that. We’re better than you.”
