MSNBC Keith Olbermann on Prop 8

Photobucket

Keith Olbermann delivered an amazing "special comment" devoted to the passage of Proposition 8.


IDK if this has been posted but you should watch it anyway. I cried like a frigging baby after watching it.

you know they lost, right?
kiminstein 12th-Nov-2008 04:35 pm (UTC)
I completely agree. Really? Keith Olbermann is taken seriously on ONTD? MSNBC is ridiculous. Why can't Bill O'Reilly get any love? ;). YAY PALIN, conservatism will reform and prevail!

has one of these petition thingys ever worked?
hoya 12th-Nov-2008 03:08 pm (UTC)
no. online petitions, like a lot of petitions, aren't taken seriously.
shanny_w 12th-Nov-2008 09:56 pm (UTC)
yay *signs*

Word.
radwimp 12th-Nov-2008 12:00 pm (UTC)
i don't disagree with the message, but ugh, his 'quivering voice' just screams fake to me.

yeah yeah i'll go ~*diaf now*~
piratesswoop 12th-Nov-2008 12:07 pm (UTC)
fake like anti-gay or fake just in general? lol if you listen to anything else he does, the man screams NO BULLSHIT to me but idk ~opinionz*
radwimp 12th-Nov-2008 12:10 pm (UTC)
no just a bit disingenuous about the emotion he was attempting to portray. i'm not a fan so it's a completely biased view, lol.
amateur_photog 12th-Nov-2008 12:51 pm (UTC)
I kind of agree. I think he is being dramatic.
sillycucumber 12th-Nov-2008 01:12 pm (UTC)
Yeah, he's always a bit fake. That's why I watch his show and cringe. But I do think he believes that prop 8 is stupid.
iheartcera 12th-Nov-2008 02:13 pm (UTC)
i think it's the fact he's emotional.

when i'm emotional my voice is totally different.
6a696c6c 12th-Nov-2008 04:48 pm (UTC)
nah this guy rules
orangeandblack 12th-Nov-2008 05:11 pm (UTC)
I think if you watched him regularly, you'd notice that it's genuine feeling in his voice. I can totally understand why someone who's not a fan or not familiar with him wouldn't believe it though. No need to go diaf =P
fan_ang 12th-Nov-2008 12:00 pm (UTC)
i voted against it, my parents voted for it. they were ill informed by the fucking media i was so fucking upset :(
ezcezy82 12th-Nov-2008 12:05 pm (UTC)
I think more people than we think were unfortunately misinformed about it :(

Anyway, yes, Keith's statement was amazing!!
aeryn 12th-Nov-2008 01:40 pm (UTC)
How were they misinformed? Just wondering.
_generalsmuts 12th-Nov-2008 05:15 pm (UTC)
Probably to do with the ads claiming gay marriage would be taught in school and churches would be FORCED to carry out gay marriages.
fan_ang 12th-Nov-2008 06:09 pm (UTC)
tv commercials! they were bombarded with false information
vandring 13th-Nov-2008 02:30 am (UTC)
I think that a lot of people thought that voting yes would mean that gay marriage would be legal.
threestories 12th-Nov-2008 12:01 pm (UTC)
incredible. perfect mixture of potential "what if" facts and emotion.
fan_ang 12th-Nov-2008 12:02 pm (UTC)
guys there is a rat in my room and it's too late to tell the landlord about this even though she lives upstairs and it's 2:01 am ;___; i cant sleep
hrhobo 12th-Nov-2008 12:03 pm (UTC)
scare it away by juggling keys at it or soak cotton balls with alcohol (or nail polish remover) and... idk place it near the rat and it will run away?

i think i read that in cosmo a couple of years back.
fan_ang 12th-Nov-2008 12:09 pm (UTC)
this rat is SO BIG, it's like a new york street rat ;____; thank you i will do this right now.
annaed884 12th-Nov-2008 01:36 pm (UTC)
You have just given me a reason to clean my room.
shanna 12th-Nov-2008 02:48 pm (UTC)
I would die. A few years ago, I went to visit my parents and came home to mouse droppings in my bed. My husband was in Iraq and I just could not deal, so I called my landlord, left a message, and drove 8 hours BACK to my parents house.
yellowno3 12th-Nov-2008 03:32 pm (UTC)
I've got to admit, this comment made me laugh until I cried. I wasn't laughing at you, but at the predicament. I hope you got the problem sorted. Plus, if it makes you feel better, I just ran into my kitchen and managed to punch myself in the face by accident. I don't really know how I did it, but I deserved it.
rubyredmangos 12th-Nov-2008 06:43 pm (UTC)
Haha gross. I found a brown widow spider in my room last night. I had a hard time sleeping knowing there may be more than one :(
joaniemaloney 12th-Nov-2008 10:16 pm (UTC)
omg, just reading this comment freaks me out.
i found mice in my room just a month ago and now i'm still paranoid as hell about finding more. they scare me so much.

:(
hrhobo 12th-Nov-2008 12:02 pm (UTC)

ewacat I do love this vid. It's all over my flist. — 12th-Nov-2008 12:02 pm (UTC)
How many British presenters would do anything like this?

All I can come up with is Jeremy Paxman, but he's more bothered by his socks and boxers from M&S.

:(

We don't really do comment with our TV news though do we. And if anyone on the BBC tried it it would be against regulations or something, because its supposed to be impartial.
jacquelantern Re: I do love this vid. It's all over my flist. — 13th-Nov-2008 03:22 am (UTC)
I love the BBC like no other when it's time to get down and catch up on my international news but it is just too dry for election season. I was so excited when I was told that the Oxford Union would be streaming CNN for Super Tuesday coverage but we ended up just getting regular BBC coverage. Needless to say, there were no special appearances by holographic will.i.am or Ohio-meters.

also...i love your icon.
anonymityblaize 12th-Nov-2008 07:29 pm (UTC)
Awesome icon. And I genuinely mean that it is inspiring awe in me!
piratesswoop 12th-Nov-2008 07:33 pm (UTC)
:D

it's a shame though because for me, it keeps showing up as some stupid myspace whore pic because lj's servers are fucked up. which is a shame, because i really love this icon.
harpsi_fizz 13th-Nov-2008 06:41 am (UTC)
I just want to say thank you for being an ally, bb. I love allies.
