should the guy that made a horrible comment and then said:

"It is a metaphor. I apologize: the generic "he" gender could imply something untoward. It should've been "only the other comes out - from a political point of view."

i guess what's good for the goose is not good for the gander.

Keith's usually very reasonable. Maybe he should've waited.

But I've read part of the transcript, and he doesn't insinuate her calling for assassination. He says she needs to be more concerned about what she says.

He is a patriot.

Well i cant bring myself to watch him anymore after he suggested that HRC was responsible for the Ferraro comments.

david

why?

I'm so disappointed and angry with them. I'm all with you. None of their hosts honor the Clintons, in fact, they all hate them. I don't get it, for such a "progressive" network, they can't honor the only Dem President in 27 years. Talk about lack of balance. I was beginning to like MSNBC a while back too. I was willing to ignore Chris Fatthews until they piled on the Clintons this whole year. Then Olbermann went over the edge.  

Violence is as American as apple pie
and this is something that we need to end.

I lived through JKK, MLK, Malcom, RFK.  Reagan was shot across the street from my apartment in DC.

And not just political leaders died. John Lennon.
Four little girls in Birmingham
Students at Kent State

the list is too long for me to recount.

I've shed too many tears.  I have so many fears.
Let us pray that we can move forward towards a future without the senseless violence that mires us.

There are plenty who would kill Hillary too, you know. The whole world doesn't just hate blacks only you know. How do you know everyone who wants to kill Obama is white? How dare you say "there are many hate filled and twisted white men with guns wanting to kill Barack Obama" as if white men are the ONLY ones so evil as to kill someone. I am a white man, and I don't like being stereotyped.

but if i daresay - your thought say more about your fears than what HRC actually said.  inartful yes, in any way suggestive of anything negative - no.

obama is safer than any black man  has ever been.

you should pray for the thousands that are injured and worse each year at the hand of black on black crime.

this is a bogus story.

we as black people should invest in 1 person and start investing in ourselves and our families to do and be good.

obamas wins , obama loses, either way you as an individual still live in the greatest country and to focus on this nonsense is ridiculous.

it is esp. so since the race was over right? so how can this be damaging to a campaign that was already over?

And he apologized explicitly in the next show, stating that while it was a popular phrase it has no business being utilized against a woman and sitting senator.

more misleading.

he was complimenting her with that comment.

Its true, HRC values her "presidency" over the country.

This run is now all about ego.

So who is delivering better?

We have a game changer in the media and you would rather go back to 1999 or 2004.

Funny how "democrats" love an oppresive right wing media.

I wonder why we lose elections???

Yeah, Keith should really keep the outrage to a minimum.  He wasn't literally calling for her assassination, of course, but it was a violent metaphor directed at her.  Clinton's gaffe cannot reasonably be seen as promoting violence towards Obama.

Olbermann's legacy is those goofy suits he wore on ESPN2.

and what is the difference?  this is utter BS.  its like me lecturing my son for saying something bad but hiding behind the guise that i had no problem with what he said.  basically by doing this - he is implying that she is calling for assassination.  what a joke.

Of course.
