I think Olberman hits the nail on the head on this one. I am not a big fan of  mainstream media....but I cannot argue with these points.

  Sorry, I think Oberman is a fool!

 He is anti American, and all he does is Bush bash, which is very easy to do these days .

 What will he talk about when Bush leaves ?

Sep. 5, 2007 at 10:02 AM I used to be a HUGE Olberman fan! Its not that I dislike him now its just that ive become sooo distrustful of the mainstream media. BUT I agree! You can NOT argue with these points! and he is NOT anti American....it is NOT anti American to be against the war or to express dissent! Dissent IS patriotic!

Sep. 5, 2007 at 10:22 AM WOW! WOW! WOW!  I am no fan of the mainstream media either, but there is NO disagreeing with these points.  NOT ANOTHER PENNY!  Who has the balls to stand up to this president and sorry excuse for one and say NO MORE MONEY!  There are a few and we need to stand up and say quit killing our soldiers president.  Just cause he isn't pulling the trigger doesn't mean that all the blood spilled over there is not on his head.  Dissent is Patriotic!!  He works for us NOT the other way around.

What is anti-America anyway? I don't get that term.

There are some good points made here.

I think if Bush brings any troops home, it will only be to gear up for a war on Iran.

I was struck by Olbermann's comments about Bush's intentions to have those Republicans candidates currently vying for the Republican Presidential nomination "comfortable" with sustaining a presence in Iraq.

Republican Presidential Candidate Ron Paul is the ONLY Republican Candidate who will NOT follow this President's war plan ... but will bring our troops HOME!

No doubt this is another reason the GOP does its best to ignore Congressman Paul!

Good points. yes. But he wouldn't bring home the troops to gear up for Iran when Iran is right next door. Manicmondaymomm He is building HUGE military bases over there. He has no intention of bringing home the troops. HE is a LIER. Period.

Sep. 5, 2007 at 11:27 AM Agreed on all points, Strega. I said *if* he brings any troops home, or pulls back, as recent news reports have been hinting... :) I suspect people may be thinking end to the war is in sight, due to these reports.

  Anti American to me is giving our ENEMYS more amunition.

  someone like Keth O should have more respect for the words he uses aginst the president since he is on INTERNATIONAL tv.

 The terrorists watch tv too ya know, and by putting the President down ( even though its fine to disagree) simplr Bush bashing on tv doesnt change things and certainly gives the enemy what its looking for .

   I keep hearing Congress and left wingers saying Bush is wrong on this and that and some it may even be true, but I have yet to hear a good answer to the fact that  PLANES where put through buildings and of course all the other bombings in this country and others that where executed by these people.

 You all want us to get out ? Ok , then what , we sit and wait or do we try to talk and get therapy for the terrorists and their  " anger issues"

 Its like a Mom and Dad , you can disagree but you don't do it in FRONT of the kids , because that empowers them yo pit one against the other .

 Oberman is a Loser  Thats MY opinion and I am entitled to as youare yours .
