It's My Party and I'll Be a Little Bitch If I Want To

The folks at MSNBC wants us to make them the place to get our info on one of the most important decisions ever. Turns out we're getting that info from a bunch of whiney, back-stabbing, petty anchors.
MSNBC
An epic feud has erupted on the air between Joe Scarborough, Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews and David Shuster. They're all accusing each other of being bias, partisan and all around D-bags. They can no longer hide their contempt for each other on the air. The deal is that Scarborough is odd man out because he's a former Republican congressman. The others are known Democrats, except for Shuster, who claims he's never had an affiliation with anything except Just For Men haircare.

The New York Post is quoting sources who say Tom Brokaw is disgusted at MSNBC's play to make it itself the official We Hate George W. Bush cable net.

MSNBC's move comes years after FOX figured out that it could score big ratings by aligning itself with die-hard conservatives. MSNBC is now making the same play with whiners -- a large faction in this country that believes the economy is in bad shape.

136. It's so funny how Republicans seem to pigeon hole the Democratic party into a handout-loving bunch of lazy people? I don't know, but you couldn't be more wrong. Democrats are for change, moving forward and progressing, not digging in your heels cause you think you know whats best for everyone. I'm a Democrat and I'm all for DRUG TESTING for WELFARE, because if I need to take a drug test to earn the money to pay for your food stamps, you better have to take a drug test in order to recieve those funds. Now there's a way of putting a dent into the problem!! I also believe in laissez-faire, but I don't believe in you telling me I can't do whatever I want to do because YOU think it's wrong. America IS Pro-Choice, its what sets us apart!

137. I’ve decided that I’m not going buy anything produced by GE. As long as they are financing that type of Jerry Springer news reporting. I’m boycotting anything produced by GE.

MSNBC needs to get out of the news business as they don't provide professional and balanced news anymore. I feel sorry for Joe Scarborough and hope that FOX news will hire him when MSNBC turns on him.

139. If you think MSNBC is just "slanted" then you have never watched the bias that drips from that network. The viewing figures show people are losing interest in that network. I do agree that his constant losses to bill O'reilly have damaged him. You don't get respect by smearing people all the time. At one time MSNBC was a respected network.

140. why shouldn't there be a I hate Bush television channel? Theres a "I hate anyone that isn't a nazi channel", eg. Faux Snooze. Besides, bush has so earned everyone's contempt.

141. I love these guys. Sure, they go overboard but they're passionate and they're smart and they're funny. Regardless of your pov or political party, they're not completely insane as the Republican pundits on Fox. I love Fox, it drives me crazy but the condesention that people like Laura Ingraham and others exhibit, is really bizarre. All in all, it's fun stuff, something for everyone and I just love the guys and the mentality on MSNBC. As a poster said, if there's a Fox, why not an MSNBC?

142. Love Olberman's sarcasm. Love it when he makes fun of Bush and Bill O'Reilly. Can't wait to hear his criticisms of the over-rated Sarah Palin. She was Mayor of the town (population 5,700) she grew up in and was Beauty Queen for. Big Deal. She won the Governorship because people knew her. She's Governor of Alaska, which has the same population as the city of Charlotte, North Carolina, and she's Governor for only 20 months. Big Deal. Does that make her experienced enough to be the Vice President or even President of the United States. No way.

143. I'm so glad that people are beginning to wake up to the farce that is MSNBC. This is by far the most biased station on the tube. They annointed Obama and will not hear a word against him.

Olberman is far the worst. He should be his own "worst person of the day" everyday! What qualifies this douchebag to have his own show????

144. I was going to vote for Obama, until I started watching too much MSNBC. Chris Mathews, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddows are SO in the tank for Obama, that it disgusts me. Keith and Rachel are by far the worst. With their stupid little facial expressions, goofy voices that make fun of people and their obvious biased 'reporting,' I can tell you that they have single handedly turned me away from voting for Obama



McCain will now be getting my vote, along with my two daughters votes, one son and my husband, who was going to vote for McCain anyway.


Keith and Rachel, you two are shooting the Dem party in the foot!
And that's why I am going to have to name you both, The WORST persons....IN THEEEEEEEEE WOOOOOOORLD!!!!!!



Have a great day!

145. I'd say CNN and Fox make an effort, not always completely successful, to at least touch upon both sides of issues. Watching MSNBC--especially Keith Olbermann--is cringe-inducing. If anyone out there thinks there's nobody more obsessed with Bill O'Reilly than Bill O'Reilly, give this nutcase a gander. He must think about old Bill hours a day! Pretty bizarre. There are times I think KO's kind of funny, but the uneasy kind of funny when a butterfly net is--or should be--about to come down over his head.

146. I'd take MSNBC over FAUX NEWS anytime!

It's better to be known as a network of whiners than a network of sexist, racist, D-BAGS. BILL-O is the biggest one!

Posted at 4:52PM on Aug 31st 2008 by FAUX NEWS SUCKS!

147. I dont watch Msnbc anymore. I watch Fox and sometimes CNN. BHO is the reason for this change.

148. MSNBC is the worst station in the world.

149. Olberman is a dunce. His arrogance is much greater than his intelliegence. I'm pretty sure he is homosexual and hates the Republican party for not embracing gays as the the demo party has. It's scary how many fools watch his rantings every night. So, for all you suburu and prius driving nutbags that are watching Gooberman everynight: get a life!

p.s.. for the poster who wrote Olberman is "hot"; are you insane or just blind? Did you know he is about 50 pounds overweight?

150. No one with any intelligence watches MSNBC.
