Progressives can be so uppity. We either adore Olbermann or express our “can’t stand him” whines on the comment forums of the progressive blogs, including OPED. We can be like someone starving who would rather perish than accept nourishment that is not perfectly seasoned to our tastebuds.
Keith Olbermann has been the lone voice on the vast wasteland of today’s mainstream television media projecting the truths of the plundering and desecration of the United States of America and it’s peoples. Can anyone name another besides tonight’s debut of Rachel Maddow?
MSNBC has begun the process of making Olbermann their next Donahue by limiting his coverage of the Presidential Campaign. Should (horror of horrors) McCain/Palin win, Keith will be gone along with Rachel.
We Americans are odd in the way we rarely appreciate anything and anybody until gone, and only when gone for good.
If we won’t stand up for and defend Keith Olbermann against his bosses by saturating the e-mail box of MSNBC with our protests, if we won’t change the channel whenever that phony Dave Gregory fills our screens with his preenings; and if we don’t make MSNBC feel the sting to their bottom line profitability with gutter rating, then we are nothing more than hot air progressives and unworthy, ourselves, of expressing our points of view on these electronic pages.
So get busy. Stand for Olbermann whether you can stand him or not. Or archive his special comments, as I do, just to remember what could have been after he is gone
Our nation has lost so much. We cannot get it back without holding on to every precious voice that still remains to demand her restoration. .
