Accurate Statement Re Olbermann's Displeasure with Speech...

[monmouth]

"I don’t have a problem with anyone criticizing the President, but this President gets it from ALL SIDES: tea-baggers, the GOP, conservatives and now even the liberal media? And what really gets me about this, it’s that it’s coming from people who don’t have to get elected to do their job. It’s coming from people who don’t have a constant wall of Republicans obstructing every single thing he does, calling him every name in the book, it’s coming from people who have the luxury of putting on little skits but don’t ever have to be held accountable for the real consequences of their words. Hell, Keith Olbermann doesn’t even vote!"

4. When the President takes the progressive side, I'll take his

Republicans and their ideology of hateful domination have been hollowing out this country, destroying its democracy, looting its wealth and weakening its people for thirty years. I didn't vote in 2008 in order to meet Fascists half way.

6. Here's another criticism. Try this one on.

"I don’t have a problem with anyone criticizing Olbermann, but this TV host gets it from ALL SIDES: tea-baggers, the GOP, conservatives and now even the liberal media? And what really gets me about this, it’s that it’s coming from people who don’t have to get on TV five days a week to do their job. It’s coming from people who don’t have a constant wall of Republicans criticizing every single thing he says, calling him every name in the book, it’s coming from people who have the luxury of putting on little skits but don’t ever have to be held accountable for the real consequences of their words. Hell, some of them don't even watch Keith Olbermann!"

If you think that's unreasonable, childish and defensive...well, the original defense of Obama was also childish and defensive.

Sorry...both guys are subject to being criticized for what they do. And you don't have to do it yourself to be qualified to criticize it. If you really think that's so, I hope you never again express an opinion about a movie unless you have made one yourself, or of an athlete unless you are a pro athlete yourself.
