126. I shall do that
In the meantime, here's the link for the transcript from that show.
Was going to post it yesterday, but all the (many) links I found from old DU posts on it were broken. Darn MSNBC must be moving pages.

But I found it now:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9231761/

The comment (I think it was Keith's 1st one) starts near the end with:
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
MICHAEL CHERTOFF, HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY: Louisiana is a city that is largely underwater.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
OLBERMANN: Well, there‘s your problem right there. If ever a slip of the tongue defined a government‘s response to a crisis.
Forget the history of slashed federal budgets for projects that might have saved the levees. Drop the imagery of the government watching “Monty Python‘s Flying Circus” while New Orleans drowned. Ignore the symbol of bureaucrats like Mr. Chertoff using only the future tense in terms of relief that they could have supplied Monday and Tuesday.

And a total aside, Happy Thanksgiving to you and some music for Thanksgiving:
