Love it…
Lame insults about Maddow's sexuality and the use of a son caring for his dying father as fodder for a half assed "street" diatribe. Somewhere Richard Pryor and Redd Foxx are spinning in their graves.
fantastic! Zo in top form as always! 'if i weren't holding this baby, sir'.. LOL
Does anyone take this metrosexual loser seriously? ANYONE????
Nice video. But would anyone expect the loser sportscaster to care?
Uberclown is a coward. Also a moron. But enough about the painfully obvious. Zo's point about clamming up until such time as you can put "your money where your big mouth is" is painfully pertinent. Being called out on hypocrisy that Ray Charles could see is bad enough, but throwing your relatives under the bus as a way out is just rude. I mean, who does this guy think he is? Barry Obama?
Dude, youre good.
No, because his dad's dying.
Rachel Maddow doesn't use Old Spice. She prefers Secret. "Strong enough for a man or a woman pretending to be a man."
as i posted above, check out your favorite websites, dailykos & huffington… keith uses his father's death to sound out govt care on us all and took a jab at sarah palin…. on his father's death… NICE.
I did, and he was insufferably pompous as usual in his extra long "special comment" a few weeks ago devoted to his dad. But…to call the man out as a coward for not showing to the tea party when he's been absent because of his dad's worsening condition…a little tacky, IMHO. Were he on the air as usual all this time, all's fair in love & war. Call me sappy, but Olby lost his mom not long ago, and having personally lost both parents after lengthy hospitalizations, I'm always gonna side with the guy dropping out of sight to be by their side, regardless of his politics. When he gets back, if he uses it as a soapbox again all best are off, but until then, I'm gonna cut him a bunch of slack.
FROM HERE ON, I DUB KEITH OLBERMANN… MIGHTY WHITEY MAN.
Great video. Sadly, Olbermann (and Liberals like him) really do believe that they know better what a black person is "supposed to" think. It's racist to assume that black people have a different manner of thought in the first place (not to mention an inability to have different thought from others), but it's the kind of racism people like Keith can't recognize in themselves (much like his belief that minorities need white Liberals' help to succeed).
Really? I would think that Richard and Redd would admire Zo. A man who lays it all on the line for his country and for his Lord.
Unlike you, a Troll! That's all that needs to be said.
Oh, yeah. Keith cares. He lives in a world (or at least works in a building) where it's all about him. His ego trumps all. And when someone throws pebbles at his ego, it is akin to a full frontal assault.
I had forgotten that the Death Panel would have freed Keith long ago of his burden of a Father….

Awesome Zo !
Mighty Whitey Man! hahahahahaha
Rebelcomix, how? How can you doubt or criticize anything that maatkare says, given that maatkare is now parentless? Don't you know the rules of common decency and civility? If someone has experienced loss, all that they say is valid and true, and you must not criticize, or you are an inhuman ghoul.
(sir.)
Maybe since I'm categorized as white and favorable to the "Tea partiers", I shouldn't like Zo because he is "Black"! I guess they are right, I don't just like him, I love him as the portray-er of his message/content, keep it up "Bro"!!!
Zo!….. you so bad………… NO you dint! …..Thank you so much! I loved it. Mighty Whitey Man!! LOL!
I wanted KO to show up in Dallas so bad. I saw the invite from the Dallas group and they were awesome, they would have put him to shame. Meantime, we are keeping track of the countdown on the KO meltdown.
.
I heart you, Alfonzo. Too funny!
Perhaps if the Dallas tea party was segregated Obie woulda shown up, if fact, the whole staff of MSnobody woulda been there. You don't expect Mighty Whitey and his friends at the Whitey Channel to show up at a non-segregated event do ya. That would be so, uh, what's the word, Conservative, um yeah, open-minded, yes, tolerant, yes, inclusive, yes, not sure what word to use but it's lacking in the progressive master race world of MSnobody. There were probably Jews there too, and that alone is enough to keep MSnobody away. But since Conservatives don't care I am sure nobody asked those types of questions so if some were there I hope they had a good time.
Why bring up Foxx and Pryor? Is it because all three are darker skinned than you? Racist much?
Lame insult, you mean like calling people opposed to oppressive government "teabaggers?"
Lame swipe at Olberman…his dad really _is_ dying in the hospital and he hasn't been on his own show for weeks. And even more lame to make (really lame) jokes about Maddow. Seriously? She uses Old Spice 'cause she's gay! Wow. Cutting edge. Surely you can do better.
…. and this article belongs on the 'hollywood' site because……..???
p.s. 'jokes' about maddow's sexuality are no different than palin 'jokes' … lame and very, very tired.
Kieth O could have done SO much for his career if he would have shown up and just been a good sport. It shows what idiots he has managing him that didn't insist he fly out and back for a few hours of pure FREE publicity. Some people might actually start watching him. But… opportunity missed and his numbers will continue to sink into the toilet.
did you read olbermann's comments on dailykos or huffington??? he used his dad's death to push for healthcare reform and to take a jab at "death panels"…. hmmm….
Rachel Maddow's Old Spice, — hahaha!
or you know, he could have just cut out the middle man and admitted that there are obviously minorities (or people of color as he likes to call them) in the tea parties.
that would have been simpler– but it would require him to admit that he was wrong. and he could have just said "as soon as things get better, i will take you up on your invitation'.
sorry you lost your parents, but Olbermann is a hack. the one has nothing to do with the other.
Zo's right, Olbermund oughta shut his yap until he actually attends a Tea Party gathering – instead of believing the liberally-biased footage from BSNBC files.
Loved the Old Spice comment! The trolls though that was "bad"? I've heard a lot worse attempts than Zo's!
I'd be willing to bet Maddow himself will chuckle.
Maybe Olberman can be guest of honor at the Living Legends-a-poo-looz-a that Jeremiah is throwing for himself, Calypso Louie and Father Phleumer.
Zo is just another angry black man clinging to his bible and rights, welcome to Pennsylvania, your invited to Mercer Zo, you know the place where Obermun complains the Amish are segregated.
Because they were funny, this guy just isn't. Not one bit.
What's wrong with using Old Spice?
If Obamacare was in effect right now, his unfortunate dad would have been shipped off to the Soylent Green factory already.
These leftists still haven't figured out that playing the race card is old and dead. This is the tactic of last resort for the lefty ideologues. Give it a rest.
Cindy Sheehan syndrome, right? What was it the left called it? Moral authority?
Could someone send el_polacko the Big Hollywood mission statement? He/she seems to miss the point…frequently.
I sympathize with Olbermann's personal struggles right now…the suffering and/or slow death of a loved one is nothing to joke about (and Zo didn't). If he couldn't make it, he could have sent one of his staff (MSNBC still has a few staffers, don't they?) down to meet with Tea Party representatives. That's what a true journalist would do…but then I keep forgetting that Olby went to cow college rather than a real journalism school (is that an oxymoron?).
As always, You are irrelevant. Looking for food from conservatives. Ever wonder why you come come to these sites to troll? You should, it says a lot about you.
To bad his Mom did not take Keith's own advice to women.
Only a complete lunatic would defend Keith Olberdork's behavior. If that jackass represents the left (and he clearly does), then you have a lot of growing up to do.
I'll bet you think Jon Stewart is hilarious though. As long as it's liberals ripping conservatives it's funny, right??
So the LIbbies don't like comedy directed at their news mavens, Wah! Mighty Tighty Whitey Man has been on pretty much every day I channel-surf past MSNobody'sWatching. Prayers for his dad, though. The libbies are just mad because we won't drink the koolaide with them. Love to hear ya, Zo!
It sucks that his father is ill, I went through it myself so I can understand the things he's going through.
BUT
That does not give him a blank check to behave like the venomous asshole that he is night after night. On a regular basis he says some of the most vile and slanderous things about people that don't see things his way. He's an angry, closed-minded, shill that probably hasn't had an original thought of his own since his first BM. People that think he provides some sort of constructive reporting or analysis should be on meds.
Funny is funny, it has nothing to do with right or left. Stewart makes fun of everyone, Stewart is funny. But really, it is just easier to rip conservatives, thats just how it is. Stop being ridiculous and it won't be so easy. So far anyway, conservatives are just too uptight to be funny. LIke this Zo guy, he comes off as angry more than anything, he is trying too hard, but, it is hard when you're angry and uptight and take yourself too seriously. Conservatives still have a complex about getting everyone to like them.
If being "opposed to oppressive government" was all the teabaggers are about, or even the main theme, it would be a mainstream cause. Btw, teabaggers labeled themselves teabaggers in the very beginning. How can a name like that not stick to such a ridiculous group of people?
"it is hard when you're angry and uptight and take yourself too seriously."
That's Olbermann.
And yeah Stewart can be funny when he's not being so obvious about his hatred of conservatives. You misunderstand, conservatives don't need anyone to like them but it would be nice if the cowards on TV took shots at this administration too. Stewart does it somewhat but it's so disproportionate it makes it not funny. Just old and tired.
Kind of like your assertion that conservatives are uptight and angry. YAAAAAAWN…..
You're actually right on with that. Trolling for bottom feeders.
I love it.
Only a complete lunatic would defend Rush Limbaugh's behavior. If that jackass represents the right (and he clearly does), then you have a lot of growing up to do.
And i guarantee Rush lies more than Keith. But they're both lunatics.
They can be found in your livingroom….
and that is why conservatives are what they are. The worst of the bunch.
So your stance is Rush is an asshole so Olbermann's allowed to be an asshole and that makes everything ok.
Wow, just wow. Let me know when you have recess so the grown ups can talk….
Why have a single standard when you can have double?
Black people to tea parties are like crocodiles to Alaska.
You mean like wishing cancer on the vice president? Oh wait…that was Maher, and he's one of yours. Or kidney failure on Rush? Damn, bad example….
And that is why liberals are what they are, steaming piles of self-righteous bullshit….good luck with that…
That floating 'L' on Keith's forehead, was that for liberal, leftist, loser, lizard-like, loutish, laborious, lacrhymose, lackey, lame, lamentable, lap-dog, laughable, lecherous, leprose, libertine, licentious, loathesome, logic-challenged, low-life, bootlicking luft-mensch or what?
Spoken like a good little racist.
Why, it's almost as if racial or ethnic minorities need someone with a low melanin count to speak for us!
Is he a Ho-Mo?
"Enemy of Ideology"??
So far you're lock-step with people like Olbermann. How lame….
"Conservatives still have a complex about getting everyone to like them."
Wow, I didn't know projection was up and at the computer this early in the morning…
Apparently it doesn't take a break with liberals…
Speaking of Rush, how come no one ever mentions the fact that for years conservatives were taking as gospel the rantings of a man who was wacked out of his mind on OC's EVERY DAY?! And yes, Olbermann is a big drama queen, even I'll admit that.
I love the "troll" concept. So everyone commenting on this site should be in favor of everything that's written here? Where's the fun in that? And if you look at my comment history, you'll see I don't disagree with everything on this site and I will tell the authors I agree with them.
Wacked out of his mind? Seriously? You think he was passed out on the air or something? This is not an honest statement.
He had an addiction and beat it. I thought you liberals were all about that sort of thing?
I don't listen to Rush or Ann Coulter because when they start to make a great point they immediately follow it up with something completely over the top and ridiculous. They turn into bizarro-Olbermann. Enough with the divisiveness already, it doesn't work no matter which side of the aisle you're on.
This man is a ARSE….. I hate him and everyone else that is on MSNbC… just a BUNCH OF BUFFFONS's and they are another leftist rag…
Agreed thats Olbermann. He is the opposite side of the same extreme coin as right wingers.
I wouldn't say Stewart hates conservatives. Hes a jew, he is incapable of hating anyone besides himself. He is disappointed in conservatives, just like a lot of people are. I don't hate them, I disapprove of their conduct and priority for politics over substance.
It is kind of becoming a cliche that conservatives are uptight and angry. Stop being so and that will change. Its that simple. Conservatives totally need people to like them, its why sites like this exist and thrive. Its the need for reinforcement.
Rush is Right! He uses satire and you have to have a sense of humor to understand it.Well, we know who has a sense of humor don't we? I like Rush because he is never MEAN like virtually every liberal who opens their mouth.
That makes conservatives worse than steaming piles of self righteous bullshit. Seems about right.
Maher is an entertainer, he is on the same playing field as Limbaugh. They're both full of controversial comments. Doesn't make it right, just is what it is.
"I disapprove of their conduct and priority for politics over substance."
C'mon man, this is total projection. Liberal policies are based solely on appearance and perception.
And I still think it's hilarious that you think conservatives are uptight and angry while people like Olbermann scream purple-faced with the spittle flying. Along with all the naked hostility toward the tea party people, maybe liberals are the ones that need to lighten the hell up already.
"Hes a jew, he is incapable of hating anyone besides himself."
Ok, that one was funny….
Crisp, factual, measured, and completely hilarious. EXCELLENT video, Zo.
Don't let the haters get to you on this thread. This is some of your best material ever.
Agreed Scorpio! I'm with you on that.
Except I've never seen or heard Limbaugh or Coulter come close to making a great point. they only spew divisiveness.
No, you're not really a troll. I've seen some of your posts and you make some good points.
Oh and I see that your double-standard is alive and well….
Keith has never been known to have balls ….that's Maddow's job….I can't get over the fact that people at MSNBC think they are helping America ….how do they sleep at night ….belly down butt up….GE…. like how Chris Softballs Matthews tried to talk over Dan Rather when he brought up the water melon comment….that was funny… :}
You left out Looney LardButt.
Labeled themselves teabaggers? Horseshit. Anderson Cooper was the one who made it cool for the libs to chuckle to themselves whenever they saw the Tea Partiers, and guffaw at how clever they are for calling themselves tea baggers.
I'm still laughin' at the fact that he put the creature from Krull up when he called out Bill Maher. LOL
That's because your ideology won't allow you to listen to their point in the first place. You go in with a bias.
That's not to say they don't spew divisiveness, but no more than the loud mouth doucherockets on the other side of the aisle.
Rush lies more than Keith?
Also, to say he represents the right…. I don't even light like Limbaugh, personally. He sure as hell doesn't represent me.
And what have liberals done for black people recently besides make them dependent on the government and condescend to them because of their skin color through affirmative action?
Oh yeah, liberals hate when people get rich or turn themselves around. The same system that made them so wealthy and successful is no good for everyone else because they feel guilty.
All of the above?
Reminds me of a anti-illegal alien amnesty rally I attended here in the armpit of the left coast: Portland, Oregon. As we walked around the public square holding signs saying "No borders, No country" a black man came up to me and thanked me for what we were doing. He knew that the illegal alien invasion was hurting black Americans badly, as well as all Americans, and that he could not join us for fear of being ostracized. In contrast a young white female, stopped at a light on the adjacent street, practically became unhinged spewing hate at us. As she screaming obscenities at us and used rude finger gestures, you would think she was confronting the devil himself rather then citizens protesting the illegal invasion of their nation by foreign nationals. I literally thought she was going to lose it right there in their Subaru Outback. Another demonstration of how Mighty Whitey Liberal is going to save the brown man, whether he wants saved or not !!
It is an honest statement, as I got addicted to them after a surgery. You can function well enough, but your brain is mush. And the amounts he was ingesting apparently contributed to his hearing loss. Rush is like Howard Stern, he says outrageous things to piss off people who take him way too seriously. Even he admits he's an entertainer, not a politician. Whereas Keith thinks of himself as a journalist, instead of an entertainer, yet libs hang on his every word.
Maddow thought it was hilarious the way tea bagger rolled off her lips, too. Looks like PAC and Maddow might have intimate knowledge of the term, as do most liberal cheerleader clowns.
They don't make points, they make attacks. They take slivers of truth and use the slivers to represent the whole truth. You can't make a valid point using only part of the picture. That's ideology. For example, the argument waterboarding isn't torture because John Yoo's memo defines it as such. The rest of the story is that waterboarding has in fact historically been defined as torture, America has prosecuted people for it. You may still put more heft on Yoo's memo than historical precedent, etc., but you don't get that with Limbaugh or Coulter. They already made that conclusion for you, so all you get is the rationalization for the conclusion. Problem is, thats all their fans want is the rationalization.
I criticize LImbaugh and Coulter for what they do, how they do it, the disservice and dishonesty that it is, but I'll fight for their right to do it.
And I agree about the doucherockets (thats an awesome word btw) on the other side, with one clarification, its not so much the sides of the aisle that are the problem, its the extreme corners. Extreme left and extreme right are the problems. Stewart just had Marc Thiessen on his show and Jon dialed in on this concept, within the context of waterboarding/torture/detainees, beautifully at the end of the interview.
econey, as far as Maddow sexuality … does she have any?
"You see, here on Earth liberal policies cause more harm than good."
Thats your reality on this Earth. Sometimes its true, sometimes its not. Same for conservative policies. Thats THE reality.
You can have your opinion of Maher. It doesn't matter, he doesn't do his show to attract you. I don't have HBO so I don't watch him. I do think he's funny sometimes, and sometimes slanderous yes, but I don't really care. Its good to see a balance to turds like Hannity and Limbaugh.
I can't argue with that. But I will say that I am not part of the fringe and even if waterboarding is considered torture, I'm all for moistening terrorists to get them to talk if it means stopping another attack.
What Stewart does though, is stay just outside of being principled. He dances around the idea of taking a stance. When he does manage to grow a backbone he almost always sides with the left. The guy has no business acting like a pundit then cowering behind the "I'm just an entertainer" shield. Sorry dude, you're either in or out. You don't get to make noises like a political scientist then say "just kidding" when you're called on it.
That is something neither Rush nor Coulter do. They at least have the spines to stand behind thier convictions.
Fair enough. I've been fortunate enough to avoid any addictions so I'll bow to your experience.
The thing is though, Rush doesn't just say things to piss people off. He does make some valid arguments. My problem with him is that when he's making a valid point, he drowns it out with something that DOES piss people off and it distracts from what he's talking about.
Olbermann is neither a journalist nor an entertainer. He's a bomb thrower. An antagonizer. His schtick is to get his muppett-like face on the TV and bellow slanderous garbage. He looks and sounds a fool.
Same here.
I've never heard Hannity or Limbaugh wish cancer on anyone. But I can imagine the uproar if they did. Balance? There's no balance.
Maher is a much bigger turd than any 5 conservative "entertainers".
You're wrong. It was the teabaggers themselves carrying signs with the words that the name was born. Cooper just reported and repeated it.
It is pretty clever though. One word insult, can't get better than that. Its not descriptive. Loons would be more descriptive, but not as funny.
I'd be happy to teabag Maddow, and more.
But that doesn't change the fact teabaggers are maniacs. Conservative cheerleader clowns – thats a good line. Explains Big pretty darn well.
Mighty whitey man with his tighty whities!!! Love it!
Thats an incredibly ignorant statement. Nice work.
Don't take personal responsibility, blame the liberals.
I wasn't aware all liberals are "wealthy and successful".
