Fighting the War on Error

2 outta 3 ain't bad, Olbermann



Take a listen to Insanity and Glenn Beck - Olbermann rightly slams them both in a recent installment of his Worst Person in the World segment.

Sean Hannity is so 20th century. No matter what President Bush says or does, and what political gutters his administration crawls through, Hannity always has his Clinton Cue Cards ready. Not only does he never miss a chance to mention Clinton, but he also never misses an opportunity to utter outright lies, too. Before the left had Media Matters, Keith Olbermann and Al Franken, there were precious few who even bothered to check on the right on its lies and smears. But, it's a whole new ballgame now. I think there's a short circuit inside Hannity's head, which doesn't allow him to reason that someone just might go back and check on the lies coming out his mouth on an hourly basis.

As for Glenn Beck's comments, I'll let them stand without comment. What could I possibly add that would further illustrate the absurdity and stupidity of his comments?

Olbermann just misses the trifecta, though. What, did Rush Limpbaugh and Billy have the day off? I'm sure either one said something completely hateful and stupid on the day these other two did. C'mon Keith, get with it.

You big tease.
