Oh, I wondered what that noise was. It's the howls of anguish from Democratic Underground and The Daily Kos.
Olbermann blogs at the latter -I'm sure he'll be along shortly to spit venom at his ex-employers.
ETA: Hahahaha - they hired Elliot Spitzer to replace him?
Anthony Wiener wasn't available.Quote:

Tee Hee: His Twitter feed is perfect. Apparently AL Gore has no ethics, and Keith is gonna sue!

I gotta admit I take some pleasure when they eat their own. Most of the time there just isn't a good guy in the drama. More like mafia families fighting each other. Also, it's rather reassuring that people like Gore actually have to hire people like the shamed Elliot Spitzer. Makes me believe their little crime rings aren't so big after all when they have to hire the outted scumbags. Gore couldn't find a scumbag that hadn't been outted already?Quote:

Agreed. I think it's a requirement of the job to have blackmail material on them in case they develop a conscious someday ;).Quote:

Secretly recording them and then blackmailing them if they don't go along with the agenda. Now they appear to be gurus pushing the NWO's goal of unifying the religions.
According to The New York Times, following this shutdown and their imprisonment, on August 10, 2010, former owners and managers of Emperors Club vip, Cecil Suwal and Mark Brener, were married in Manhattan, New York and cofounded The One World Initiative.
Out of Prison, Ex-Procurers for Client 9 Get New Jobs

An untold number of customers were willing to pay $5,000 an hour for an escort from Emperor’s Club VIP, the Internet prostitution ring run by a 62-year-old former Israeli tax official and his bubbly 20-something girlfriend that in 2008 helped end the political career of Eliot Spitzer, also known then as Client No. 9.
Their One World Initiative, billed as “the perspective that unifies the world’s diverse religions and beliefs,”
Be very careful...these are first amendment issues--Limbaugh/Olbermann. I may not agree with these imbeciles, but I will defend their right to be imbeciles.
Sounds like the free market at work.
Olbermann issue doesn't seem to be anything to do with the first amendment; but rather being a prima donna employee that thinks he doesn't need to follow his employers rules.Quote:

It was all for publicity and attracting those progressive libtards to LINKTV. Kieth Uberfurhermann flopped on it... he didn't draw and was a huge liability in cash. Fred Flintstone aka Dink Cenk Uyygur has better viewership on TYT.
They gave him 5yrs 50 million!?!?!? Al Gore really is a stupid assholeQuote:
