Not a huge Olbermann fan, but its good to see Bill-O has finally been knocked off his pedestal.

No doubt, your ilk would silence him and anyone else right of Chomsky if they could.

He is a horrible excuse for a journalist.

First off; it was a narrow margin on a Bill Oreilly vacation. Don't get too moist over it.
secondly; Bill is not passing himself off as a journalist; he hosts an OPINION show. He is an entertainer that makes political COMMENTARY. Contrary to current juvenile understanding; COMMENTARY is not journalism.

You're a pathetic excuse for a human being, yet here you are.

Why is this kind of comment tolerated from a Moderator?

I'm not a moderator so I'll say it. Eyelids is a compulsive liar and exaggerator. He has been caught repeatedly and yet is allowed to stay at CU. He's almost pitiful.

Yes agreed. But Please don't ban him. I really need the exercise.:D

He is a true featherweight but at least he reminds us that insane people are allowed to vote in this country.

Well, cause this isnt DU and we can speak freely is probably the main reason. Freedom of Speech is a powerful thing, isnt it?

And that’s fine - from your status, but a Moderator should just stick to the rules of conduct (as in setting an example?) and the issues being debated.
