the unobstructed view

Keith Olbermann nails it.

For the past 4 and a half years, I have dreamed of the perfect blog post. I have started it and stopped it in my head over and over and over again. It is the post in which I eloquently, emotionally and concisely convey my feelings about the way George W. Bush has led this country to its darkest hour. In that blog post, I express just how distraught I have been at times, wondering why our president professes to love America so much while he tears it to pieces. The well-worded blog post would expose Mr. Bush as the lying cheater he is; and why America — indeed the world — no longer considers him worth the effort of common respect. He is, without any doubt, the worst president this country has ever seen, and the most embarrassing leader a country of our greatness has ever had to endure. I hoped to capture that in written word here.

Last night, Keith Olbermann delivered the monologue I had hoped to write. I can finally point people to something that truly expresses how I feel about this president.

Thank you, sir.

    Keith gave me chills. in today’s oppressive climate i’m surprised that MSNBC allowed him to say such things about the president. and i could be wrong but it appeared as if he was contemplating saying “shut the F— up” at the end but switched it at the last millisecond to “hell.” either way, i tip my cap to anyone who speaks their mind, especially someone who is well informed and passionately driven to propose and hopefully insight change through intelligent and uncompromising dialog. thanks for the video Rob.

    Shoowee! Amen!! That was the most spiritually/emotionally/physically gratifying news clip I’ve ever watched. And yes, by physically gratifying I mean full release.

    While I am no fan of Dubya, I think it will take the cold eye of history before we can really be sure if he was the worst president.

    Historical perspective has a way of changing opinions.
