ATTN: KEITH OLBERMANN SPEWED RW TALKING POINTS ON COUNTDOWN TONITE!
Edited on Mon May-24-10 07:38 PM by boston bean
Good night and Good fucking luck!

on edit:

I am being sarcastic. He took the admin to task about it's response to the Oil Gusher.

Saying what many have been saying here.

But I have read right here on DU that to do that is pushing RW memes.

13. True enough
Some DU'ers have used right wing talking points in every reply that they have ever posted here.

But Keith Olbermann?

17. I think the OP is trying to be ironic, and failing miserably...
Edited on Mon May-24-10 07:40 PM by SidDithers
Olbermann probably said something similar to what the OP has been criticised for posting here.

35. I'm confused. Who's the DLCer and who is....?
That's the trouble with mantra-memes: the overwhelming procrustean desire to fit everything to them.

DLC doesn't have a fucking thing to do with any of this, Wrongway Corrigan.

38. sucking up to corporations like BP and letting them be in charge of their own mess
is a DLC move and it's not working.

25. I got the sarcasm (which is all too often lost on your target audience).
The RW has their talking heads, we have ours. Both sides and fans are equally convinced that their talking heads are so insightful and clever and have a hotline to the truth. Then both sides go out and parrot the latest gem from their own talking heads.

Although I mostly agree with our talking heads on the left I do not watch or listen to any of them. I can glean what they are saying by reading DU, but I just prefer to avoid being enlightened by whomever is the latest one to be on fire.

36. I saw that too. Axelrod was mumbling the same tired talking points from last week...
...I expected the administration to at least come up with something original for the new week, considering the outrage that is building. It was a pretty pathetic performance.

42. Some people will say anything behind the anonymity of ..
the internet. You can read anything, you don't have to believe it. Use your own good sense, look around and believe what you see and realize that they don't seem to be capable of doing that. Do you think one man's reputation is as important as destroying our environment? I don't, but apparently some do. I think they have lobsters covered in oil sticking out of their ears. What else could explain so much stupidity?

I think you might need to re-read the thread.

I was posting about people in general who went in with that assumption. I could tell your post was meant to be tongue in cheek and I thought when I put in those oily lobsters I was responding in kind. Please excuse any misunderstanding. :hi:
