The latest from Oldturdman
November 7th, 2006Keith Olbermann has another special comment that deserves comment.
In it, he mentions the verdict of the kangaroo court against the President of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, and then says:
[…] And whose fault is this?
Not truly yours. You took advantage of those of us who were afraid, and those of us who believed unity and nation took precedence over all else.
But we let you take that advantage.
And so we let you go to war in Iraq. To… oust Saddam. Or find non-existant Weapons. Or avenge 9/11. Or fight terrorists who only got there after we did. Or as cover to change the fabric of our Constitution. Or for lower prices at The Texaco. Or… ?
When you listen to this piece you will hear Olberman mispronounce the name of The Lion of the Desert, just like that buffoon Colin Powell did with sheer contempt and malice in the UN, substituting ‘Sodom’ (as in Sodom and Gomorah) for ‘Saddam’; two very different words, impossible for any educated person to mix up.
And here is where I take issue with Olbermann.
Bush and Murder Inc. will ALWAYS be able to take advantage of you because the best of you cannot even pronounce the names of your ‘enemies’ let alone find them on a map, and let’s not mention the congressmen who have never set foot outside the usa.
You know perfectly well that The President of Iraq’s name is not ‘Sodom’. You know that you should not be pronouncing his name like that, the same way that Colin Powell deliberately did when he lied in front of the UN.
You must be aware of the appalling behavior of your evil colleagues in the american propaganda machine who followed suit, and who did worse, ‘photoshopping’ The Presidents mustache so that it resembled Hitler’s. By mispronouncing his name, you demonstrate that you are not in command of the facts. You are another insular parochial nincompoop that has no business being in charge of anything so dangerous as a vote.
Your evil tune starts with mispronouncing people’s names, has WMD as a chorus (another despicable lie), has a middle eight of babies ripped out of incubators for variety and ends with dropping bombs on them after the dehumanizing propaganda machine is finished with your feeble minds.
Now bush has started the process by mispronouncing the name of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as ‘Ahmadinejihad‘ as is everyone else on the internets. Are you going to go along with that too, and then whine like a baby when these same people strip what is left of your rights from you?
We don’t have any sympathy for the likes of you, if you are going to engage in the demonizing and pure evil of your colleagues. This special comment sounded hollow and false because you tow the line of the liars with the same breath that you use to sing the praises of the founding fathers.
Looks like the sole voice of reason on american TV is just another empty shell. This is to be expected, because…The Revolution Will Not Be Televised! Hah!
