MSNBC set up their “studio” in a dirty park full of dead grass and trash, just north of the Xcel sports arena. There are bums sitting around, and dogs exposing their penises while supporting John McCain, and it’s hot and humid like it is outside, here, and the 9/11 truthers scream at him during broadcasts, and it just sucks. So Olbermann refused to come to St. Paul at all. He’s sitting in New York or New Jersey or wherever, with green-screen video of some St. Paul street scene. [Gawker]
Once again KO gives Tweety the finger. “You go sweat outside with the crazies, I’m going back to New York to check out Rachel’s new set.”
It’s not like RNC beetches would talk to him anyway. Not with a fine journalist like Chris Matthews as an alternative
Well, since Keith hates flying, driving, and Republicans, odds were he wouldn’t go. It’s a shame because maybe someone could have gotten Olbermann and O’Reilly to burn off all that pent-up tension and wrestle in Jell-O.
“There are bums sitting around, and dogs exposing their penises while supporting John McCain….” What a colorful description of RNC delegates. Kudos to arch-reporter Ken Layne.
BTW, what’s up with Tweety’s Worst Hairpiece in the World! It looks like he clubbed a sewer rat dand decided it’d make a nice head covering?
NoWireHangers: I would have preferred coleslaw, but that’s just me.
dogs exposing their penises
Dogs generally don’t wear pants.
But what does Peggy “Bullshit” Noonan, America’s bullshitter, have to say about this?
Wil you guys STOP with all of these snarky stories. We want to see MORE advertisements.
Say you love it!!
Sun yu wil all no the troof.
Are you all sure you are in St. Paul because it was lovely today with a high of maybe 70 and not humid at all. The same could not be said of Monday though.

springfield_meltdown: What’s the weather like in Minneapolis?
tunamelt: Yes, but they are generally uncircumcised.
This may age me a bit, but I remember in my youth when the teevee had only about four or five guys (yes, males) who came on every night at six in black and white and told the news to a rapt and trusting nation. There were no talking heads, just the newsmakers themselves. Hair styling was not even an issue. In 30 minutes, the world was presented to you, and you moved on to My Mother the Car and Gilligan’s Island content that you were up to date. Those guys (Cronkite, Huntley, Brinkley et al) are twirling somewhere. There was a time when you didn’t need to fix a stiff drink just to turn on the TV.
Sorry, I just had to unload.
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: I need to fix a stiff drink just to turn on the shower.
But yeah, you’re an old.
That is sooooooo not true about Our Dear Friend Keith!! In fact he is seated in that dirty, filthy patch o’ weeds with the usual bum rush gathered ’round - Josiah Scarborough Faire, Miss “Pat” Buchanan and a couple of hunky shirtless Palin cousins (both male and female, including at least one part-Moose person), all chugging beers and throwing the empties in the direction of Iran’s natural gas-operatred cars…and what’s more, Keith has your winged, red-eyed squid dildo right there on his desk; he’s feeding it peanuts and Cracker Jack every few minutes, mumbling something about “Jeebus H. Crist”, whoever that is.
By the way, Sarah Palin says she is NOT part of the permanent political establishment, at least not until President McCranky expires around March 4th, after which Sarah will become figurehead of the permanent Republocrat majority that her boss, Karlotta Rove, is working so hard to perpetuate.
Olbermann was smart to stay back in the MSNBC Studios. Now that it’s been officially declared by the RNC that underage sex is good for the Republican Party, St. Paul is going to explode with more naked teens than Joe Francis can point a camera at. Any adult in the city will have some explaining to do if they mistakenly get in frame.
As a side note, Bill O’Reilly has just purchased two houses in St. Paul… one for himself and one for a full-time staff of lawyers who are well versed with sexual consent laws.
With a green screen of a dog peen…
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: When W was re-elected and I cried, my dad told me to shut up and get over it because he lived through Nixon. Moral of the story: let the crap times roll!
Have you not seen his special comments? The man is the epitome of protester nuts!
the funny thing about Olberwhatever is, he’s still working while Tuck and Abes are out on the street. Mika is looking hot, she should be on in prime time with Rach
OK, my husband spotted Olbermann sitting in the press box at Wrigley Field at both Saturday’s and Sunday’s Cubs games (not reporting, mind you, but just hangin’ out). I opined that maybe he was spending his between-conventions-time in Chicago before heading north, but now that theory’s gone. WTF Keith? Did your 23 year old girlfriend (or whatever) miss you that much that you had to head back to NYC?
He was probably banned. You know how worked up Keith gets. They didn’t want him close enough to spit in the kool-aid.
Can’t say I blame him
Good Call Keith
