Profiles in Useful Idiocy: Keith Olbermann Slips and Admits to “Right Wing Lies”

I think it’s hilarious when the left steadfastly denies what we have been saying, then slips and admits it.  Keith Olbermann slipped quite a bit recently, and exposed some things that have previously been hush-hush.  Of course, Newsbusters wasn’t going to let it pass, so here is their coverage.

KEITH OLBERMANN: Health care reform that benefits the industry at the cost of the people is intolerable and there are no moral constructs in which it can be supported. And if still the bill, and this heinous mandate become law, there is yet further reaction required. I call on all those whose conscience urges them to fight to use the only weapon that will left to us if this bill as currently constituted becomes law.  We must not buy federally-mandated insurance, if this cheesy counterfeit of reform is all we can buy.  No single payer?  No sale. No public option? No sale. No Medicare buy-in? No sale.

I am one of the self-insured, albeit by choice. And I hereby pledge that I will not buy this perversion of health-care reform. Pass this at your peril, senators. And sign it at yours, Mr. President. I will not buy this insurance. Brand me a law-breaker if you choose.  Fine me if you will.  Jail me if you must.

Whoa there Keith!  Now you know darn well that single payer is MOST ABSOLUTELY NOT PART OF HEATH CARE REFORM!!  I mean, even though Obama, Rep. Jan Schakowski, Barney Frank, and others have all said that it’s the goal of the plan, it’s all really TEABAGGER PROPAGANDA!!  You were just kidding Keith…weren’t you????

“Jail me is you must?”  Keith, why are reporting more of the insurance company/GOP/Bush/teabagger/racist/terrorist/astroturf/redneck/hick propaganda again?  We all know that people won’t go to jail for not buying the insurance.  The MSM told us so…right???

After all, not agreeing with this administration makes you a racist/homophobe/terrorist/redneck/teabagger/scum/nazi/fascist, right?  At least, that’s what you and your cohorts on MSNBC have been saying all this time.  Is it now OK to dissent?  Have you given it your personal approval?  Or, is it your unwarranted self-importance, you arrogant hypocrite?

About the Author

Matt I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom.
