2. The word "scare" should be in there -
Using Stupid People to Scare Other Stupid People - those were Keith's exact words.

:hi:

5. that's a pretty stupid thing to say
KeithO, remember that anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of public opinion. It's pretty stupid to call large groups of the voting public 'stupid'. If you care about winning elections that is.

6. I agree.

With you and Olberman both. I'd rather he use his time to educate, inform and persuade those "stupid people". Insulting them is only going to harden their resolve. While it may raise a chorus of Hallelujahs from the choir, it's really quite counterproductive.

8. I doubt Keith is concerned about winning elections. But he's right about the stupid people.

10. Oy. Bully for KeithO.
If I had $5 million then I might not care either, but as it is, I am concerned with winning elections, and KeithO is not helping here.


5, 4, 3, 2, ...

That's the Countdown to Democratic politicians being asked by the M$M to denounce Keith Olbermann.

7. Maher called it "dummies talking to dummies"
but missed the point that the dummies doing the talking are on right wing hate radio and are taking their orders from men who aren't dummies and who hate anything that will derail part of the gravy train the rich are riding.

We'll see if Olberman makes the same mistake.

9. The stupidity of the American pubic has been, and remains America's #1 weakness...
Nothing else is even close.
