BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nah, it's just that Wulf is intolerant! Unlike Jonggstraw, who believes in real freedom.

"Nah, it's just that Wulf is intolerant! Unlike Jonggstraw, who believes in real freedom."

Thanks Sig. I was laughing so hard at that one, I have a nose-bleed now. :(


Besides, Jong is sometimes right, just like I am. Just like you are.


So let me admit, I was wrong. Oh yes, the great Wulf was W-R-O-N-G.

Olberaman was NOT fired.

He quit.

And that somehow makes it so much worse/better/funny.

He quit over money, or because he didn't like his bosses. The great shining example of progspeak, the king of that little hill called MSNBC... had a temper tantrum. Had a great little fit, and left.

And while the interwebs are alive with the bemoans and crying-jags and teeth-gnashing of his faithful few followers....

There is me , laughing at it all.

Why? Because it is yet another example of liberals behaving like children.


While gas prices have soared past 3 bucks again (remember all the faux-outrage about this when Bush was in office), and they are using fucking predator drones to spy on us... not to mention trying to curb our free speech and ability to protect ourselves...

While ALL of this is going on,

you care more about some spoiled assclown quitting his job.

I'm not sure at this point if I should continue laughing, or cry.

Wulf, quite honestly one of the peeps who behaves like a child around here is you. A damaged child, a frightened child, but still a child, who has no control whatsoever over his emotions, little insight and apparently little ability to learn or empathize. And that is what we associated with childish behavior, unless you have a better definition.

AFA what YOU think I care about, I have NEVER watched Olbermann and have no particular identification with or loyalty to to him, so you missed the mark wildly. You might want to actually read what I write once in a while before you assign opinions to me!

I loved this. When I heard it I giggled to myself, thinking “Oh, Whozit’s gonna be SO happy...but who’s he gonna obsess about now?”

Why is that a problem? I want them there, uncensored, encouraged, and free to do their thing as they have in their own special way for years. With them, at least you know what you're dealing with. There's no professionalism, no ethics, no nuanced subtleties of context or intent; just in your face right-wing fanatacism along with obssessive liberal character assassination in its' crudest form.
Ahhh, Fox News, you mean...yes, I agree.

I don’t know O’Donnell, never bothered to watch; I switch to Jon Stewart and Colbert after Maddow, when I even watch her. The one I abhor is that Schultz character; talk about NO sense of humor and rabid partisanship!

They told him to lay off, and he told em to go to hell.
I’m not sure about that, only time will tell, if anything. I heard he was too controversial for the new owners, that he’d been job shopping for quite some time anyway, and given he’s been booted here and there before, he’ll probably pop up somewhere else before long. Matters not to me; I’ve been watching Parker-Spitzer during that time period for a while now, rather than reruns of “Scrubs”, which I used to watch. I think I may like Parker Spitzer, but I haven’t decided yet.

I AM finding Piers Morgan interesting, so I watch it when it’s someone I’m interested in. George Clooney was GREAT! But Olbermann? No, I gave up on him long ago and haven't watched in I don't know how long. I go to his website, as many others, to see if there's a SUBJECT I might be interested enough in looking up elsewhere, but actually watch his pompous assitude? Not my cup of tea.

And yes, “sacked” is the wrong word, and silly to use. Olbermann has enough pull that he could do his thing anywhere he wants practically (except on Fox, obviously--not just 'cuz he's too left for them, but because he might not be willing to LIE shamelessly), and if it hadn’t been a mutual agreement of some sort, we’d have heard by now; he’s not exactly one to keep his mouth shut when he’s pissed off!

One might as easily wonder if he was TRYING to get out of his contract ‘cuz he’s got better offers to play against one another. Matters not to me, just amused when I thought about Whozit’s reaction.

No, Wulf, dear, it’s one topic among many, and didn’t get that much attention from us. You ignore all the truly small and silly threads we get into discussing things of no import.

So if it’s an example of LIBS acting like children, then what are your posts, which are truly childish, like why you should be Prez, and a couple if I remember rightly just dissing ME. Given the videos you constantly post which have nothing whatsoever to do with the real world, much less real-world events, we should be surprised you’d make such a remark, only we’re not.

Given we have threads about Kaneman winning some kind of money, “why isn’t Rush in the hall of fame?”, favorite music/sci fi, the changes in the zodiac, your remark shows nothing but your sad, desperate need to SOMEHOW diss liberals, no matter whether it makes sense or not. Real sad. And totally irrelevant. Again no surprise.

Oh, and WULF? Let me add

If you scroll thru the thread, you'll see that the FIRST post was by our resident right-wing delusionist, and most of the rest are by.... guess who? The rest of the right-wing camp. Apparently YOU care about it more than we do. See what I mean by "no insight"?

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Huh. Weird. That definition doesn't include the word "resign" anywhere in it. But your very first post DOES use the word "resign".

So I guess it's safe to say that you've never quit a job in your life, you've only ever been sacked, right?
