Keith Olbermann's Bias Against The Military Is Showing

So I'm on the eliptical machine at the gym and low and behold my favorite idiot comes onto the tv. Unfortunately, I don't have any control over the channel, so I just pop my ipod on and read the subtitles in case he says something stupid.


While his condemnation of Hillary's "RFK assassination" comments were fairly accurate, I have noticed one thing; liberal politicians aren't on his "worst person in the world" commentary. He lambasts a General at Guantanamo Bay for basically saying that the inmates there aren't tortured and they basically live like they are in a frat house, and he's one of the "worst people in the world". Yet, Hillary gets much more of Keith's time and she's not the "worst person in the world" or even in the top 3.


What's worse is that I've now noticed (maybe I'm a bit slow here), that military officials are constantly on this list, but liberal politicians aren't. That's not journalism Keith. That's showing favoritism.














What I'd also like the point out, is in Keith's list of "things we've forgiven Hillary about", he mentions that Democrats have forgiven Hillary for her praise of John McCain and downplaying Obama.


Keith, that's showing that you can like a person's ideas even if they are on the other side of the political aisle. You constantly accuse Republicans of "towing the party line", yet you're doing the exact same, hypocritical thing. It's amazing that you even have a show with your outright lies that you've told, your misleading statements, and your bias against the military men and women who are capturing and KILLING terrorists.


Hard to believe as it may be for you Keith, but there are terrorists out there and they mean to do us harm. Since you are obviously too chicken shit to do anything but Monday morning quarterback tough decisions these people have to make, your opinion of them is of little importance. However, your half truths and outright lies mislead your audience into thinking these military people are monsters when they are trying to defend the nation against people who want you dead.


If you can't seem to see that, perhaps you should take your head out of your ass for a moment and stop giving snobbish comments and instead take a look at the real situation that we face and offer solutions instead of simply complaining like the fucking harpies on The View.
