From the boys at OlbyWatch. It’s okay to get choked up. I did.

Hmmm… All I got was an itch in a place I can’t scratch in public.

Has he ever uttered the words “President Bush?”
It reminds me of Clinton during the ‘92 debates.
Slublog on November 13, 2006 at 9:34 AM
“Mr. Bush”????
What a jerk.
Esthier on November 13, 2006 at 9:48 AM
I can’t watch it. I won’t submit to the Apple QuickTime cult!
Olby is a model for dingbats and pedophiles everywhere. Be nice.
Ringmaster on November 13, 2006 at 9:54 AM
…he just likes saying “bush”…sort of a Beavis ‘n’ Butthead thing. “He-he-he…I said ‘bush’”….
If this guy can have a cable news show, can I get one for one of our cats? She doesn’t dress as well, but it’s a damned site more articulate…and she’s clean.

Where do I sign up to make a lot of money for butchering the English language?
Oh, nevermind, forgot about that “being a nutroot” part. Sorry, can’t sink that low, no matter how much they pay.
y2church on November 13, 2006 at 10:08 AM
No… I think not.
I refuse to watch that moron, even to make fun of him.
It’s just too pain-drenched, sir!
mojo on November 13, 2006 at 10:13 AM
If the slur was like they’d like to portray it, would Olby be saying “Senator George ‘Nigg*r’ Allen”? Is it a nasty racial slur, or isn’t it?

Comparing KO to a man like Edward R.Murrow is like comparing a Yugo to a Porsche 911. Olbermann isn’t fit to have washed Murrow’s dog.
Dave R. on November 13, 2006 at 10:59 AM
Quicktime movies should be illegal. They never load for me.
lorien1973 on November 13, 2006 at 11:00 AM

Stupid F*(K nazi olberdoosh.

Can someone explain this one. I am particularly dense today.
Bill C on November 13, 2006 at 11:08 AM
renegade, n.:
2. One who rejects a religion, cause, allegiance, or group for another; a deserter.
ha ha ha…. honored by GQ, but PWN3D by the dictionary.
way to go, Olby!
Shine on you crazy diamond.
stevezilla on November 13, 2006 at 11:22 AM
Chocked up as in threw up in your mouth a little?
You know he’s an oompaloompah. Look how orange he is.
Mazztek on November 13, 2006 at 11:28 AM
OBEAJERK!?…won’t watch him…won’t listen to him…don’t care about him…
areseaoh on November 13, 2006 at 12:00 PM
That’s it? A few verbal flubs? And referring to Bush as “Mister” instead of “President”? Guess what: most of us Americans think of him that way.
From what little I’ve watched of O’Reilly, seems a tribute to his stupidity would be a sprawling 3-hour epic, not including the intermission.
Constantine on November 13, 2006 at 12:21 PM
Most of you Americans think of him that way? Why?
Here’s how you can tell a troll from a good-faith opponent: the troll will never laugh at his own side. Ever.
Allahpundit on November 13, 2006 at 12:25 PM
Totally unfair, DaveR! Olberdouche is perfectly fit to have washed Murrow’s dog. And nothing else.
Jaibones on November 13, 2006 at 12:28 PM
Not a good thing, in any explanation…especially see #3
Most of us Americans, including many on your side of politics, are way more decent than you Constantine.
AP, to imagine you at all, and then chocked up, especially over this, is devine :) You’re such a teaser!
Olbermann is really an Olberkind, with faux pretentions of politeness, and anyone who forgets that hasn’t grown up yet, either.
Entelechy on November 13, 2006 at 12:32 PM
Correctin self…s/b ‘choked’ and not ‘chocked’ :(
Entelechy on November 13, 2006 at 12:34 PM
I hope he is raped and can’t get an abortion!
Griz on November 13, 2006 at 12:42 PM
I’m not invited on Karmabites1 “forthisreliefmuchthanks” blog anymore…Oh boo hoo! I was tired of reading about Olby’s “ahem” beads.
kiakjones on November 13, 2006 at 12:50 PM
I can’t click the video for fear of pulling the rest of my hair out. The still picture alone is enough to make me want to lose my Chic-Fil-A lunch.
SouthernGent on November 13, 2006 at 1:10 PM
Help is at hand.
jic on November 13, 2006 at 4:18 PM
Olbermann wants to be the next Edward R. Murrow? That’s just fine with me.
Murrow has been six feet under for at least fifty years.
pocomoco on November 13, 2006 at 4:34 PM
Olby isn’t the only media member using the Mr. Bush tag. This crap has been going on for 6 years. I for one am sick and tired of it.
As much as I loathe Bill Clinton, I always refer to him as President Clinton, or Former President Clinton. And, so does the MSM. Listen the next time they talk about him. It’s never Mr. Clinton, it’s always Former President Bill Clinton. ALWAYS.
Where did this complete lack of respect for the nations highest office come from?
If you are going to throw Mister into the mix, it should be tagged with President.
RobG on November 13, 2006 at 4:47 PM
Renegade? Maybe he should hook up with Maverick John:
McCain/Olbermann ‘08
I like it, has a nice ring to it.
B Moe on November 13, 2006 at 6:09 PM

Zorro on November 13, 2006 at 6:32 PM
There’s just no humor there. The SNL Pelosi bit, that was funny.
Constantine on November 13, 2006 at 8:55 PM
“Constantine”, trolls do not deserve the nics of famous praiseworthy men. You gave yourself away defedning Olberjerk by attacking O’Reilly: Bill has an ego even bigger than his giant head, but O’Reilly at his worst is much closer to Murrow than Olberjerk will ever, ever be
Janos Hunyadi on November 14, 2006 at 1:13 AM
Allahpundit,
I wish you had a “twit-filter” button so I don’t have to read the ravings of certain posters.
Note, I don’t want you to ban anyone, I just want to have the ability to not read the blathering nonsense of certain posters anymore.
Thanks for your consideration.
georgej on November 14, 2006 at 3:32 AM
It’s Tuesday…1208pm…and OBEAJERK still sucks!
