Sorry, I don't buy the sanctimony coming from the same company that just rehired Keith Olbermann for like the tenth time...


Among many others who have said inflammatory things.

The same liberals who think NFL players have a constitutional right to protest the National Anthem while on the job are demanding that a person be punished for private comments made on social media. What a bunch of hypocritical snakes.

reply

No not just NFL players have the Constitutional Right, everyone has. Until recently the Players were allowed to just stay in the locker room. It was the NFL who took money from the DOD to force players onto the field when the Anthem is played.

reply

You're an idiot. The NFL responded to White House pressure, including threats of tax penalties. It was government intervention, but yes the NFL can do what it wants and can fine players if it wants.

Exactly when did Keith Olbermann infer some looked like the offspring of a primate? Being controversial is not the same thing as being revoltingly insulting in a racist manner.

reply

So this is so much more appropriate in your mind:https://ethicsalarms.files.wordpress.com/2017/09/keith1.png

I'm pretty sure was among the legions who said Bush (correctly) looked like an ape. There was a whole show on Comedy Central about it in fact.

reply

Appropriate? I say the same thing. Donald Trump is a nazi sympathizer at the very least. Came out of his own lips, some of them are fine people.

reply

That says a lot about you and your purpose in coming here

reply

Here, as in the Roseanne thread? Who is coming here to talk about the show?

Why are you here if not to comment on the same thing. Like most RWNJ's, you have no sense of irony.

reply

"Being controversial is not the same thing as being revoltingly insulting in a racist manner."

That's exactly what Olbermann has been, many times. As evidence in the tweet I wrote, comparing Trump to people who gassed over 12 million people, half of whom were of the same faith as his daughter and grandchildren. Yet the same people sanctimoniously supporting this nonsense have no problem with hiring him for the tenth time.

reply

Whats RACIST in Olbermann's tweet? Nothing. Calling Trump a NAZI,(I call Trump a NAZI Sympathizer) is a political statement based on Trump's less than subtle racism.

reply

Back during the Bush years, like 2004 or so when he had that show on MSNBC, one of Keith Olbermann's ex-gf's came forward to say that his issues are rooted in the fact that he has a very small penis. I thought that explained a lot. And the kind of males who might share his views. It's the reason that porn star who supported Mary Carey wouldn't dare him and turned him down flat. She'd already been told.

reply

Smaller than Rush Limbaugh's micro-dick?

reply

I couldn't say, here's a couple articles about it I dug up. Not easy this was buried deliberately from all the other MSM outlets. Heard later he paid her off to take down her more detailed postings about how small his penis is and how bad he was in bed.

Note the specifics are left out and they refer to his shortcomings below and in bed as a "lackluster affair".

Then you're not doing a good enough job raising public ire about Olbermann. It's as simple as that.

reply

Why should I raise any ire of Olbermann being obtuse. He's being profane to an extreme, but he's not wrong.

reply

Oh that reply was to Coleburg

reply

ok.

reply

As long as the hate comes from the left it’s “ok”. See every hate night so-called comedy show on tv today. Just propaganda tools for the demokkkrat party. They know their lemming voters are too stupid to watch anything intellectual so they have to hide their propaganda in “comedy”.

The party of hate and blame. November is coming and their platform of hate is going to be a disaster.
