Oh Keith Olbermann, you are always welcome here with your idiotic rants and constant misleading stories about various topics. It gives me new material every time you open your mouth, and you do not disappoint again:
Wow, you'd think with a statement like "Republicans booing" that everyone was against John McCain's statement right? Well unfortunately for Olbermann, that's not quite the case. Take a look:
You can clearly hear cheers as well as booing across the board here. I'd say it's about a 50/50 split on the cheers/booing front. But Olbermann doesn't make you think that with his rant. He misleads people into thinking that the audience almost universally boos McCain's statement.
Look at how enthusiastic Olbermann looks in his video, I think he pissed himself a little bit.
But that's not to say that I agree with McCain's statement 100%. American's didn't want to get involved in the war in Europe until the attacks of Pearl Harbor. Once that happened, everyone screamed for blood revenge, just like they did after the 9/11 attacks.
However, the difference there was that we went in in WWII and decimated the enemy without piss ant backstabbing from politicians and parts of the public who claimed that we "deserved" the Pearl Harbor attack or how it was an elaborately staged plan by the Roosevelt administration to get at Japan's oil or some other such nonsense.
But, McCain is right on one front, isolationism and appeasement simply DO NOT WORK. They only allow that person or regime to gain power and when they turn their attention to you, then you have a bigger problem on your hands then when it was a growing threat and could have been easily taken care of had you had the backbone to deal with it then instead of now.
Just ask Bill Clinton about Osama Bin Laden and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
