by Kaveh Nouraee on Wed Jan 28, 2009 05:38 PM PSTThe idea of Bill O standing naked saying, "I'm about to enter the no-spin zone" really creeps me out.
eeeewwww.
Kaveh please tell me what you though of O'reilly after
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Wed Jan 28, 2009 03:44 PM PSTthe falafel phone sex scandal? I was shocked because 1.I really thought Bill was just non-sexual before that. I was happy to see he was having sex, but disappointed that it wasn't having enough effect to help him chill out.
Rachel is a beauty. I always love to see what style she'll try out. In the beginning, she didn't even do make-up! And she doesn't need it, believe me. Good for her. She also doesn't have a TV which explains why she isn't a run of the network mill douche nozzle.
I won't say THAT about Bill
by Kaveh Nouraee on Wed Jan 28, 2009 02:49 PM PSTI will say that he definitely is his own favorite person. He does love himself a bit too much. I don't agree with everything he says and does, and I get nauseated at how much he loves to hawk his books and such.
To me, Keith doesn't humiliate conservatives. He goes after them in a "nanny-nanny-boo-boo,-your-dad's-a-communist" way that is just so juvenile.
If he just stuck to sports, he'd be great. That's his strength. His style of cynicism and sarcasm works perfectly in that venue. Talking about a football player who has "more DUI convictions that touchdowns" is where he needs to be. I like his antics, but when it's related to sports only.
Remember when Dennis Miller did Monday Night Football? He was a DISASTER. Every time he spoke during a game I prayed for an electrical malfunction that would short circuit his gonads.
Rachel Maddow is defintely more palatable than Blubbermann. Too bad she plays for the other team. She's kinda cute, in that short hair, unpierced ears, nice teeth and smile, soft butch sort of way.
Where to begin!!! ???
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Wed Jan 28, 2009 02:07 PM PSTJust do me this one favor. Admit Bill O'Reilly is a whiny old woman too. Do you remember how much $$$ he made off of bashing Hillary and Bill? Suddenly he became a big fan of Hillary. What a phony!
As for Olbermann - i think basing anything on Chris Matthew's personal opinion is bound for disaster. That doesn't do it. Keith is great, in his own way. You obviously can't stand him because of your leanings. He humiliates conservatives and doesn't spare any punches. Personally, I'm more of a Maddow fan chick myself. She is so professional and intelligent it makes me cry. But I'm just a whiny old woman so that's a fair reaction.
Keith is hilarious. I like his antics and he is very very honest about it. I don't like his fashion and I think he can stand to lose a few kilograms, cuz you know, a girl can dream!

by Kaveh Nouraee on Wed Jan 28, 2009 10:42 AM PSTHe's a whiny old woman. It has nothing to do with his politics. It has to do with the fact that he's a histrionic drama queen. So much so, I honestly wonder if he stands up to take a leak.
Even Chris Matthews, a very outspoken liberal who's never even tried to hide his political leanings, can't stand Blubbermann, going so far as to let him know live on the air last year. Matthews has his points of view, says what he believes, believes in it with conviction, but also allows for differences of opinion without Olbermann's penchant for pontification or acting like his medication has worn off or needs adjusting. That I respect.
Some of the people on this site who are so leftist they refuse to make right turns in their car can learn from him.
It makes me miss journalists like Tim Russert that much more. And to think that a complete class act like him and this miserable piss-ant were on the same payroll.
I feel the same way about Alan Keys and the "how would Jesus vote" crowd. I could care less how Jesus would've voted. If it was so important, there would have been a verse in the bible saying "cast thy hanging chad as you would cast out Satan, and purify your soul and honor the covenant with electronic ballots, Amen". I'm 200% for separation of religion and state. Thank Jeeezus that Alan Keys is a non-factor in the GOP. He couldn't even be named Miss Congeniality if the vote was rigged.
Honest? Yeah, maybe Blubbermann's honest when he says he doesn't vote. But I'm honest in my belief that if you're eligible to vote but don't vote, whoever you are, whatever you do for a living, you have no right to say jack about the government. End of story.
Oh please Kaveh. At least he's HONEST
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Tue Jan 27, 2009 05:25 PM PSTDo you really think these fartsy newscasters do anything on election day? or bother with fancy absentee ballots? I don't hold that against him. ACTUALLY. You Rethugs ought to be glad he don't vote as it increases the chances of more teenage babies having babies and saying "The Lord wills it" or Alan Keys telling us we should vote like Jesus votes.
Dubaya was great in one sense
by Alborzi (not verified) on Tue Jan 27, 2009 12:20 PM PSTYou know for years I had an absolute belief that most western countries will be fair. In the end Dubaya and even England showed that was a naive assumption. Don't get me wrong, Talabans are worst but that is expected, what is not expected is that rednecks are all over and once they get to power, watch out.

Great job
by farokh2000 on Mon Jan 26, 2009 01:41 PM PSTI saw this here a couple of weeks ago and I totally agree with him.
I am pretty sure the World Court will give this idiot and his buddies a call soon.
I agree that Obama has already shown more quality as a Leader than this moron did for 8 years.
The sad part is he had ruined Texas before being selected for the WH by his Masters. They just boxed all the records and called them Top Secret and no one could see who he really was.
Not that it would have mattered, he still lost the Election, but his Puppet Masters shoved him to the WH to serve them for 8 years.
I am not sure if they even got their money's worth out of this criminal. He may have disappointed them too!
olbermann DOES rock
by Anonymous fish unregistered (not verified) on Mon Jan 26, 2009 01:34 PM PSTbut i agree with the non-voting comment as well. he loses a huge amount of believability when he himself doesn't vote. my ONLY fault with him...:-)
the happiest day of my life, no, the second happiest day because the first was obama getting elected, no the THIRD happiest day because the first happiest was getting married, no... oh forget it.
it will be an extremely happy day when that pimple on the wart on the ass of a donkey gets indicted. but more so , his companion in chiefdom, Cheney. bush is just stupid, but cheney is EVIL personified.
but can i say a little tiny thing about bush that might sound nice? we were watching national geographic last night about air force one, etc. and i think i'd like to give him kudo's for going to iraq in the middle of the war.
no, i'm not talking about his STUPID banner but the fact that he had the balls to fly into bagdad. it was pretty cool.
but that's it. nothing else nice to say about that man.
great job Sadegh.

by IRANdokht on Mon Jan 26, 2009 12:41 PM PSTOf course there are! The guy who stole the presidency in 2000 was actually re-elected 4 yrs later. Nobody said there is a shortage of idiots in this world...

I believe this video was posted in the news section about a couple of weeks ago. See what you miss when you don't read this website cover to cover ;-)

Olbermann is worthless
by Kaveh Nouraee on Mon Jan 26, 2009 12:30 PM PSTSomeone who has said publicly that he doesn't vote doesn't have the right to take any position concerning politics, the economy or anything else related to the government.
That's what "we" believe.
I wish I'd seen this sooner...
by Monda on Mon Jan 26, 2009 11:50 AM PSTwould've been perfect for this debate my kid was working on. Thank you Sadegh, great share. I ditto IRANdokht line by line.
Some still love him
by Alborzi (not verified) on Mon Jan 26, 2009 11:40 AM PSTBack in 1979, in a class at NU, we had a professor who loved Hitler. He would spend half of the class saying how good/genius Hitler was. This Jewish friend of mine, once pointed out he left the country literally in rubles, invaded by 4 countries and divided. Yet there are people who think he was great. Go figure.
Thanks Sadegh jan
by IRANdokht on Mon Jan 26, 2009 11:21 AM PSTYou have no idea how relieved we are to be rid of this idiot! :0) Obama has taken more positive steps in less than one week in the White House, than this guy did in 8 yrs!!!!
he was just a complete failure and I hope some day he pays for the crimes he committed.
Oh yea and Olbermann rules ;-)
