Hey Keith Olbermann! Rachel Sklar is “My BEST Person in the World”
Rachel Sklar is “My Best Person in the World” for taking on Keith Olbermann with her Huffington Post column Katie Couric is Rubber and Keith Olbermann is Glue.
Finally someone from the liberal left has taken on Keith Olbermann (KO). Me being a guy who is slightly right of center, I find it so maddening that Sir Keith NEVER has anyone on his show that has an opposing opinion about ANYTHING! Whenever I watch Olbermann (or Obama Girl, as I like to call him), its just an endless parade of guests where he either cheerleads them or they cheerlead him as he gushes about and fawns over every Kennedy, the Obamas and the liberal left kookocracy — while demonizing every Republican, centrist and moderate Democrat.
Say what you want about O’Reilly, Dobbs and Hannity, but at least they have on guests with opposing viewpoints. KO? He only will book journalists and politicos who are in LOCKSTEP with him on EVERYTHING!
And then today I read about Ms. Sklar taking him to task for his Hillary Clinton comments. Bless her heart. I really don’t have a strong opinion on the whole “Sexism as the cause in Hillary losing” debate, but I absolutely take delight in someone from the HUFFPO taking on KO. Finally, some diversity of thought coming from the left wing of the Democratic party.
So will KO have Sklar on his show to debate this issue? Of course not. Then he might actually have to verbally spar with a guest and be forced to articulately represent his point of view. No, what we’ll get is some douche bag reporter from NewsWeek or some second-rate Obama operative who will nod their head attentively as KO spews anti-Hillary anti-Sklar venom, and then agree completely with KO’s petty ranting.
Like I said, just completely insufferable.
MEMO to MSNBC: Don’t even think for a second about even considering Keith Olbermann to replace Tim Russert on Meet the Press. KO is a partisan hack of the worst kind and makes no attempt to even feign objectivity. As it is, he is already featured way too much in so-called “objective” MSNBC election special reporting.
OK, enough of the KO rants. My original intent for this blog was to offer up KUDOS to Rachel Sklar for having the courage to stand up to the mouthpiece for Obama nation. Rachel Sklar, you indeed are “My BEST Person in the World” for June 15, 2008. But don’t expect an invite to KO’s show on June 16, 2008 or any day after that…
