Has Joe Scarborough finally had enough of Keith Olbermann's unhinged
personal attacks? It sounds like the answer is yes:

John Gibson has the details of how Keith Olbermann said Joe Lieberman
should commit suicide. A bit over-the-top even for Olby. (The first
half of the clip sets the stage with dramatic anti-Joe readings taken
from blue blogs, since we know blue blogs are the primary 'research'
tool for Edward R Olbermann.)

Olby: "In [O'Reilly's] nightly round of self applause last night,
designed to drown out the echo of daddy hitting him..."

Fixed the blooper error confusing Howard and John Dean. Check out this

It was Bizarro Planet tonight, as John Dean was explaining to Keith
Olbermann how horrible it is to call a sitting President a really ugly
name like 'fascist'. Did John Dean know whom he was talking to? This
little video will remind him. Check it out--I think it's one of our
best!

Kossacks are in an uproar over Keith's failure to take on Cramer, even
after the showdown with Jon Stewart. Olby tried to defend himself at
the site but as we demonstrate, he didn't tell them the real story.

One of the best Red Eye Olbermann segments ever!

It's another gem from Olby. This time he calls CPAC a bunch of
racists, but Olbermann Watch dug into our archives and it turns out
Olby kind of hung himself with this one. Watch the very entertaining
video:

Olds to Obama Campaign

Students at an elementary school in New Rochelle, NY, a suburb of New
York City, were recently assigned an in-class assignment to color in

Recalling Republican senators in the coming months would give Democrats their best hope of controlling the Senate next year - a task that would be all but impossible if Democrats focused only on the regular November elections.

Washington Times, by Joseph Curl Posted By: Photoonist- Mon, 06 Feb 2012 05:27:40 GMT When it comes to the unemployment rate, it’s nice to be president. Sure, it wasn’t so nice for President Obama in October 2009, when the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics declared the rate was 10 percent. But exactly a year from Election Day 2012, the rate began a precipitous plunge (Snip) See, the BLS boys, no doubt at the president’s direction, are busy rewriting the rules, and they’re in uncharted, and unchecked, territory. The federal government Friday declared that the U.S. had created — not “saved,” mind you, “created” — 243,000 jobs. Amazing, right? But wait, what’s that little asterisk

Washington Times, by Rowan Scarborough Posted By: Photoonist- Mon, 06 Feb 2012 05:24:49 GMT America’s aging tactical Air Force ' the jets that protect ground troops and strike hard'to'reach targets ' is shrinking just as the Pentagon is cutting even more planes to achieve nearly a half'trillion dollars in spending cuts. The trend has set off alarms among retired fighter pilots, some of whom wrote to Congress last month warning that U.S. “TacAir” is in trouble. They fear the political pressure to drive down the deficit will mean there will never be enough money to replace 1970s jets with advanced aircraft to operate against rising militaries such as China‘s, which last year unveiled its

Haaretz [Israel], by Amos Harel Posted By: Photoonist- Mon, 06 Feb 2012 05:21:45 GMT Hamas has been making concerted efforts in recent months to renew its activities in the West Bank, Israeli security officials note. According to the officials, over the past few weeks, the Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet security service have intercepted relatively large amounts of funds that Hamas activists abroad have tried to smuggle into the West Bank as part of these efforts. Since Hamas' takeover of the Gaza Strip in June 2007, and its expulsion of the Fatah leadership there, the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank has come down hard on Hamas activists in the area.
