Here are several examples of what the Merchant of Hate Speech, Keith Olbermann has directed toward President George W. Bush. The Irony is that if anyone else were to make such incendiary comments such as these about ANY President including our current one, Keith Olbermann would be leading the charge in his hateful diatribes to have that person removed from any association with Major League Baseball if they had one.

• “Two days ago, a Tea Party protester shouted the “n” word at Congressman John Lewis of Georgia (FALSE! ed.), one of the heroes of 20th Century America, and Congressman Andre Carson of Indiana and another shouted anti-gay slurs at Congressman Barney Frank of Massachusetts. Capitol Hill Police confirm no arrests were made and there were no serious efforts to identify the vermin involved. Television, print, and radio news organizations will not be asked to turn over their tapes and images of the event, nor subpoenaed if necessary. ” (source)
• It is 2010, which means it is way past time for decent Americans to rise up against this kind of garbage, to fight it aggressively wherever it appears. And it is time for every American of good will to hold the Republican Party accountable for its role in tolerating, shielding and encouraging foul, mean-spirited and bigoted behavior in its ranks and among its strongest supporters.

• “But in a backwards, sick-to-my-stomach way, I would like to thank whoever shouted at Mr. Lewis and Mr. Carson for proving my previous point. If racism is not the whole of the Tea Party, it is in its heart, along with blind hatred, a total disinterest in the welfare of others, and a full- flowered, self-rationalizing refusal to accept the outcomes of elections, or the reality of democracy, or the narrowness of their minds and the equal narrowness of their public support.” On Saturday, that support came from evolutionary regressives like Michele Bachmann and Jon Voight. On a daily basis that support comes from the racists and homophobes of radio and television: the Michael Savages and the Rush Limbaughs.” (source)
• “If you believe there is merit to your political argument, fine. But ask yourself, when you next go to a Tea Party rally, or watch one on television or listen to a politician or a commentator praise these things or merely treat them as if it was just a coincidence that they are virtually segregated. Ask yourself: Where are the black faces? Who am I marching with? What are we afraid of? And if it really is only a President’s policy and not his skin, ask yourself one final question: Why are you surrounded by the largest crowd you will ever again see in your life that consists of nothing but people who look exactly like you? Good night and good luck.”
• “The rationalizations of the racists are too many and too contradictory for the rest of us to keep them straight”
• “The whole of the anger at government movement is predicated on this. Times are tough, the future is confusing, the threat from those who would dismantle our way of life is real, as if we weren’t to some extent doing it for them now. And the President’s black. But you can’t come out and say that’s why you’re scared. Say that, and in all but the lifeless fringes of our society, you are an outcast. And so, this is where the euphemisms come in.”
• “Congratulations, Pensacola teabaggers. You got spunked. And despite the hatred on display, a few of you actually violated the penal code. But teabagging is now petered out, taint what it used to be. And when you co-opt the next holiday, Fourth of July, try to adopt a holiday food that does not invite the double entendres like, you know, franks and beans. On a more serious note, we’re now joined by actor, activist Janeane Garofalo. Good to see you.” (source)
• “The spontaneous nature of these protests might not be at all spontaneous.  That may be faked and the money and organizing power behind them are corporate and Republican—and, yes, they even come from Glenn Beck.  But that does not mean that the people are not real and that their anger is any less palatable.”
• “if the Republican Party and others were actively schilling for the health care industry, knowingly inciting a dissatisfied portion of the American public towards violence with propaganda, knowing that it‘s never going to be vetted or checked by people who want to believe this, who need an excuse to get riled up and perhaps actually violently angry.  How is that different than what Hamas or Hezbollah does?  How are these people not political terrorists?” (source)
