On my daily net search for all things Olbermann I regularly have to deal with the likes of Newsbusters and No Quarter and similar pits of sewage. But today… Today my friends I indeed braved the innermost circle of Hell to bring a tidbit that would be hilarious if the context wasn’t so sad.
Where did I go? The site of the Westboro Baptist Church, the URL for which is too repulsive to even type.
Why did I go? To get this press release. It’s not enough that these hatemongers show up at the funerals of our fallen soldiers, but they feel the need to protest at the funeral of the great George Carlin.
What does it have to do with KO? From said press release: “Two fellow perverts scrambled to report the news, both of whom will no doubt in due time join Carlin and his buddies in Hell; to wit: Lying Propagandist Keith Olbermann; and fellow filth-monger Jerry Seinfeld.”
Like I said. Hilarious if not for the context.
I’d seriously sign up for Phelps!Hell. Sounds like they book the best talent there.

On behalf of the sane Christians, I would like to point out that Westboro Baptist “Church” is really a cult made up almost entirely of the Phelps family.

I think that the question is, What would Jesus do?

Did anyone get the first three digits of the zip code for the lunatic fringe church? 666!

Rafismom beat me to it. What would Jesus do, indeed.
*sigh*

We can only hope that some massive disaster has befallen the whole Phelps family before the day ever comes for Keith to meet his Maker. You know, such as spontaneous combustion.
For a second I thought this was going to be about today’s new, and stupid, Page Six article, in which the idiots were apparently forced to cover their asses by changing their story about Keith bitching all the way down to Washington on his train ride last week (now that he’s told us he DIDN’T TAKE A TRAIN) to a story in which Keith supposedly bitched BEFORE going to Washington about not being able to get a first class train ticket. The story about him bitching about lacking ketchup packets remains intact, however. MSNBC is obviously becoming weary of their persistent nonsense, too. They’ve essentially been given carte blanche by MSNBC to publish whatever they want to about Keith, because it will all be lies anyway.
Boy, that Keith. You can’t take him anywhere, even a funeral. Half the time he’s bucking for the dead man’s job and the other half of the time he’s bitching about ketchup.
I wonder when it will occur to these bozos that they’ve painted such an exaggerated and absurd picture of KO–literally, as a person who is angry about everything, all the time, and never behaves in anything other than a boorish, crude manner–that it just defies credibility. Especially when you consider that there is no video of KO on YouTube from years ago yelling: “@$%#@$!#! it! WE’LL DO IT LIVE!!!!! @$%#@$!#! thing SUCKS!!!!” I would be far more willing to believe their stories if they were about, say, that guy.
