NBC wallows even further in the gutter (warning: content)

I was looking for transcripts for Olbermann’s show tonight, because as I was flipping by I thought I heard him say “executed the teenagers.” It was probably a reference to the Somali pirates, and I was interested in the latest machinations of the Obama supplicants. What I found on the front page of Olbermann’s website was this:

GOP’s taste for teabagging

While the anti-tax “tea parties” are officially toothless, conservative teabaggers are full-throated about their goals. They want to give President Obama a strong tongue-lashing and lick government spending; spending they did not oppose when they were under Presidents Bush and Reagan.

 

If you aren’t familiar with the term, google “teabagging”. I won’t explain it here, and it may help you identify people who are obsessed with equipment that they seem to lack when they approach you tomorrow.

At any rate – if NBC wants to go completely in the tank for Obama, that’s fine. If they want to promote every left wing agenda item on the menu, there’s not much I can do about it. But I really thought that gutter humor befitting a pre-pubescent boy was beneath them.

I was wrong. There are simply no adults left at NBC, once a legitimate news organization. None.

    I’m surprised that the gay rights activists have not come out to protest the use of there word in ref to the right wing extremists that we apparently are.

    I bet we will in the coming days.

    Oh? I hadnt heard that Obama was spending all this money on the military. I heard he was spending it on the unions. But you know, to a Cownell grad, spending is spending. Spending to resod the mall and spending to kill the USSR are totally comparable.

    Anderson Cooper – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I64Ed5iLu4M – “It’s hard to talk when you’re teabagging.”

      And that is all I will say.

    I had the same thoughts when I watched Oberman and MSNBC tonight. They really teeter on the verge of being traitors to our country. Heck, they don’t teeter. They jump in with both feet.

      There are plenty of other places to spend your time…

    GOP’s taste for teabagging video

    On the homepage, the story was in the lower left, just above the headlines “GLAAD honors Keith Olbermann” and “Commentary on the DailyKos” and near the headline “Nancy Pelosi on the president’s agenda”. With a lineup like that, seems like sometime around the month of NEVER this show will catch up to Rush….heck, before that it might need to catch up to Curious George on PBS.

    But I don’t.

    I wish I wasn’t stunned by the absolute schoolyard quality of this, but I am. I will give them credit for one thing though – when NBC put on the ZObama uniforms, they flat put them on and went all-in.

    It’s Olbermann’s show, but David Shuster is filling in.

    How about this line? “If You’re Gonna Have Tea Bagging All Over the Country, You’re Gonna Need A Dick Armey!” Get it? And we thought liberals didn’t have a sense of humor. Classy, eh?

    In google, type cache:

    For example, “cache:www.redstate.com”

    You can also type “cache:www.redstate.com Savage” to search for “Savage” in the cache of www.redstate.com

    Hope this helps.

    Got it.
