It’s true – you are really Zombies following Olbermeister.
Video: O’Reilly’s ‘The Factor’ Tells You what Keith Olbermann Won’t
—–
Apologizes to Janet Reno for once calling her the worst Attorney General Ever
Eric Holder, Dereliction of Duty?
Dennis, What part of BUSH ADMINISTRATION didn’t you get? The whole thing was dropped two weeks BEFORE President Obama took the oath of office.
db, forget it. He’s rolling, and no amount of facts will pry him from his stuck groove.
Well, if BILL O’REILLY said it, it must be true.
Pack it in boys, O’REILLY turned.
Jesus, you’re a cartoon.
Dennis, What part of BUSH ADMINISTRATION didn’t you get? The whole thing was dropped two weeks BEFORE President Obama took the oath of office.
That’s false, db. The ‘whole thing’ wasn’t dropped two weeks before Obama took office. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
Well, if BILL O’REILLY said it, it must be true.
Pack it in boys, O’REILLY turned.
Sorry, ODubya, the same could be said about you’re turning to Keith Olbermann for backup assistance.
Good Lord.
What, now that Daily Kos booted Olbermann is Media Matters going to take him in?
So … if “Bush didn’t prosecute”, how was he able to win convictions which were subsequently dismissed by Holder?
Read and learn, idiots:
Not only did no voters come forward to say they had been intimidated by the NBPP that day, there were no further incidents on Election Day 2008 that would have suggested a large-scale conspiracy to intimidate white voters. According to a letter sent to Rep. Lamar Smith by Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich, the NBPP “suspended” its Philadelphia political chapter over the incident and subsequently disavowed their actions, which seems like an odd thing to do for an organization that is supposedly disclosing its attempt to intimidate white voters in its publicly available materials.
Indeed, Malik Zulu Shabazz, the head of the NBPP, was pretty clear on their intentions in a recent video being passed around conservative circles that was flagged by Media Matters. “We decided that on Election Day, that we would go out to the polls. Because of what? Because they said they was going to be stopping black people from coming to vote,” Shabazz said. That’s a more plausible explanation for their presence at a majority black precinct.
At any rate, the decision to approve not going forward with the civil case was still made a month before Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandes joined the DoJ and sometime afterward supposedly issued a decree against cases involving minority defendants.
DA, per usual, you’re a day late and a dollar short with that non-sequitor, for which Serwer has already retreated.
Tom Maguire explains the idiocy:
Yeah. Keith Olbermann. The man who smugly claiming in front of millions…err…thousands that Abraham Lincoln only lost one election and that Sharron Angle was a maroon for even suggesting he might have lost more. Which Lincon of course, did.
Keith Olbermann = Twit.
Yeah. Keith Olbermann. The man who smugly claiming…
Oh dear heavens, that MONSTER! Anything that fascist has ever said is automatically inadmissible as evidence. Obviously.
Thanks so much, Jay, who awesomely pointing out this truly revolting fact. I will be sure to spread this information far and wide, so that The Truth may be told, and The People can choose Fox News if they want The Facts.
he has specifically alleged she was part of other decisions,
Again with the ‘alleged”, Denise the Dense.
I can “specifically allege” that there were raptors in my back yard last Saturday night, but without any other evidence, that’s all it is, an ‘allegation’, which isn’t even enough evidence for a parking ticket, let alone substantiating Adams as a reliable witness of some sort of wrong-doing.
Except, DA, things he has specifically alleged are being corroborated. And the only thing you have against him to call him a liar or an incredible witness is that he was appointed by Bush, so surely it must be the case that he’s a liar.
If you get corroboration to your raptor sighting last night, let me know.
That’s false, db. The ‘whole thing’ wasn’t dropped two weeks before Obama took office. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
Dennis, you linked to a O’Reilly segment in which O’Reilly, highlighting the guy with the baton in the video, says:
Is that an accurate account and description of the situation, Dennis?
No, Dennis, the fact that, as has been proven numerous times in posts you have weaseled away from responding to, Adams has distorted and/or completely omitted facts in order to create a false impression of what happened is why he’s a liar, and no amount of lying* on your part will change that.
*Since your continued defense of Adams means that either you are so stupid that you buy the lies your fellow travelers on the Right are telling, or you are smart enough to know that they are lies but repeating the lies anyway, I’m trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here.
Just because someone in the Bush administration didn’t prosecute doesn’t change the fact that a member of the black panthers intimidated voters and said that blacks needed to kill crackers and their babies. Olbermann acts like these acts are OK just because the voter intimidation wasn’t prosecuted. Why is he ignoring the harsh act and statement?
Then you linked to Tom Maguire, whoever the hell that is, you wrote this:
Is that an accurate description? The DOJ had won a default judgment?
And how do you feel about the phrase “more or less drop the suit”? Is that an accurate reflection of what happened?
things he has specifically alleged are being corroborated.
Really?
And as for any kind of corroboration:
Thanks for playing, Denise the Dense.
Except, DA, things he has specifically alleged are being corroborated.
There’s a massive conspiracy by black attorneys to ignore charges against black defendants in Obama’s DOJ and the sky is blue and the earth is round!
Things I have alleged in this sentence have already been corroborated!
Leave Dennis alone. He’s found a narrative that makes him feel better about being afraid of the blacks — you can hardly blame him for clinging to it like the rest of the poor, fragile lots-of-black-friends-having people who keep pushing this story.
Racism is a disability. Would you blame a person in a wheelchair for not being able to climb stairs? Would you blame someone with one eye for lacking depth perception? Don’t hate Dennis for not being able to overcome his obvious defect — he’s fragile enough as it is, and you’re only going to make him feel worse about it. He’s probably going to claim that he doesn’t even *have* this pitiable condition — that’s how much he’s hurting inside, everyone!
Cut him a little slack. He’s differently able.
Dennis:
While you rely on a man who cannot tell the difference between a Falafel and a loofah and Doocey, kilmeade and Carlson, the three gimps on Faux “News” morning show as viable reliable credible sources?
Wow.
Hmmm…
Thats strange.
Olbermann has a diary up on Kos a week after he is supposed to be never posting diaries again. How could Dennis be so wrong?
As for Media matters, Olbermann has been using them as a reference for years. On this, as with other issues here you are as up to date as the Gregorian calendar.
keep going though Dennis.
Sysiphus has now stopped just cheering and is setting up a pep rally just for you.
Ukobs- Olbermann used Adam Serwer’s revelations from yesterday for that segment. Check out Serwer’s page today and you’ll find he’s backtracking. Oliver used Keith Olbermann’s video of him parrotting Serwer, and hasn’t seen fit to correct the record like Serwer did. Neither has Dave Weigel. We’ll see if Keith “”I have never knowingly reported anything false and we correct our mistakes.” Olbermann will correct his, or I should say his regurgitations of Serwer and Media Matters, or not, tonight.
We’ll see if Oliver admits that Olby did not in fact shred Fox News’ Black Panther story.
Cut him a little slack. He’s differently able.
He’s also willfully ignorant and, also a la George Bush, Jr., incapable of admitting any mistake, no matter how blatant.
Which reminds me:
Would you blame a person in a wheelchair for not being able to climb stairs?
and the reality:
Dennis is 0 for Infinity, which, I’ve read, is way below the Mendoza Line. Shooting fish in a barrel is easy, but occasionally fun. Just ask fafaroo, who recently beat Dennis with a virtual nightstick. Again.
Uk-unobservant,
Dennis, What part of BUSH ADMINISTRATION didn’t you get? The whole thing was dropped two weeks BEFORE President Obama took the oath of office.
Do you think that is an accurate statement? Is that an accurate reflection of what happened.
Wow, Indeed, your blood pressure just hit 150/110 because
you got caught in a blatant lie after pestering me several times for the link which I provided verifying your lie and weaseliness, so now you’re going back into stalk mode and pulling out everything in your Word file that you’ve compiled on me.
You are strange one, indeed.
Olberman is a joke. MSNBC is guilty of everything you accuse FOX of. Civil charges were filed on Jan 7 2009, the Bush DOJ never dropped the suit. These are facts,
The only one engaging in blatant lying here is you, Dennis.
You’ve yet to name one, Prodigal.
And you won’t, either.
Beat him? That was more like NYPD v. Louima.
Do you think that is an accurate statement? Is that an accurate reflection of what happened.
C’mon, Dennis. You don’t really care. You’ve proven you have no interest in the actual facts of this situation.
So … if “Bush didn’t prosecute”, how was he able to win convictions which were subsequently dismissed by Holder?
Because you’re a complete moron, that’s how. Get behind Dennis in the stupid line, Save.
Come now fufaroo,
If you don’t have the answer, just say so. It’s a good question. Resorting to insults doesn’t win the argument
C’mon, Dennis. You don’t really care. You’ve proven you have no interest in the actual facts of this situation.
Right, fafaroo. You obviously don’t give a shit when liberals distort facts one bit. You know Oliver has had little regard for the truth in this saga and all you will say is that one of his misstatements may be a little vague and possibly sloppy. You want to pick at O’Reilly, but you know Olbermann fucked up here royally and you’re silent. You know Oliver called Adams a serial liar, yet when asked to name the lies you only mention one thing that you said was a lie by omission. You get on the bandwagon here and declare this to be a concerted effort to maliciously tie Obama to the New Black Panther Party, but you don’t show any specific examples of anyone doing that.
You’re a stooge, an apologist and a lemming, fafaroo. Nothing more and nothing less.
Dark Avenger and fafaroo are just the first two people that have proven Adams to be a liar that spring to mind, Dennis. Funny how you keep failing to respond to the posts where they did that…
Beat him? That was more like NYPD v. Louima.
So, Enlightened Liberal, if BP is able to get the oil well capped off, will that be the end of your ‘schadenfreude’ you said you were experiencing about all the people in the gulf region who were in favor of more drilling?
Asswipe.
…Until Dennis decided to change his desperate defense of Adams to “Well he only lied ONCE”, that is.
You’re a stooge, an apologist and a lemming, fafaroo. Nothing more and nothing less.
This virtual nightstick sure is durable.
You’re a stooge, an apologist and a lemming, fafaroo. Nothing more and nothing less.
Except, of course, everything I’ve written and linked to is true. You can’t make the same statement, Dennis, and you know it.
Except, of course, everything I’ve written and linked to is true.
Of course??? That statement right there is false.
You called me a complete moron. That is not true. That is a lie, fafaroo.
By your standards you place on Adams, you know Olbermann’s video is rife with bullshit, and you let it pass and instead harp on O’Reilly. You create the distortion that Olbermann is somehow in the right. This thread is about Keith Olbermann, you know. You are lying by omission.
This statement of yours “There’s a massive conspiracy by black attorneys to ignore charges against black defendants in Obama’s DOJ” is false.
You know db’s statement “Dennis, What part of BUSH ADMINISTRATION didn’t you get? The whole thing was dropped two weeks BEFORE President Obama took the oath of office.” is false, yet you remain silent, instead chiding me for having no regard for the truth as if that’s an excuse for db’s idiotic statement.
“Adams is a liar, Dennis. The “case” was not dismissed against the guy with the baton. Adams is willfully obfuscating that fact. He’s a lying sack of shit.” Prove this, please. What was Adams’ lie? And Adams has been called a serial liar here by Oliver. Willful obfuscation is a bullshit charge. Please back that up.
“Now, Dennis, in the NBPP case, a black defendant was charged, investigated and found guilty of the civil complaint that Adams himself filed. How is that evidence of a hostility towards pursing complaints against nonwhite defendants? It isn’t.” That’s a bogus statement by you. The guy was asked to sign a statement that he wouldn’t do what he did again for the next three years. That’s not even a slap on the wrist. That proves nothing and refutes nothing about what Adams claims. Nothing. That’s a false statement by you.
You said: “Note that he provides no other evidence corroborating his broader claims other than hearsay bullshit like this:
You and Oliver both keep saying this is hearsay bullshit. How do you know it is bullshit since no one seems to be denying these things happened and/or were said. No one is calling him a liar, yet you and Oliver call him that because you say it’s hearsay bullshit. And you say it simply because he was appointed by Bush. You provide nothing to back up that what he said is bullshit.
“Except, of course, everything I’ve written and linked to is true.”
Except, of course, for the things you’ve written that aren’t true.
Mook.
Prove this, please. What was Adams’ lie?
Adams’ wrote:
Perez testified, including reference to relevant court records:
So in the same month that Adams says his superiors ordered him to “dismiss the case” his superiors were in court winning a judgment against one of the defendants.
Explain that to me, Dennis. Please.
dennis just doesn’t give up. he keeps up the bullshit until name calling is all he has left.
Are you saying that his superiors didn’t order him to dismiss the case, fafaroo?
Feel free to address Keith Olbermann’s falsehoods while you’re at it, too, mm-kay, fafaroo? You know, how he shreds Fox News Fake New Black Panther story….it’s the topic of the thread.
Do you think Oliver’s headline is an accurate representation of the truth? Please explain.
“You called me a complete moron. That is not true. That is a lie, fafaroo.”
Right on, Dennis! You big fat racist! Ha! This has nothing to do with your resentment of people of color, what with all the special deals they’ve always gotten and awesome treatment they’ve received throughout our history! They suck!! Unfair!!!
Seriously, though, this is bullshit. I mean, i hate when i have to point out to my Many Black Friends how they’re in a secret plot with Obama to legalize being Radical and Scary. I mean, honestly — if black people would just stop being so Radical and Scary, we wouldn’t be having this problem.
Am I right, Dennis? High five, buddy! High five for being sort of scared of black people and their many conspiracies against Us!!!
I love you, man. I do. You’re like a fountain of awesome.
Are you saying that his superiors didn’t order him to dismiss the case, fafaroo?
I’m saying that Adams’ superiors dropped the charges against two of the defendants and sought and won a final judgment against the third.
That’s an accurate description of what happened. Adams is distorting the facts by not telling the whole truth. The case was not dismissed against the Minister King Samir Shabazz and no one told Adams to dismiss the case against Minister King Samir Shabazz.
That makes him a lying sack of shit.
You called me a complete moron. That is not true. That is a lie, fafaroo.
Anyone want to have at that one? It’s right there on the tee.
Feel free to address Keith Olbermann’s falsehoods while you’re at it, too, mm-kay, fafaroo?
How about if you explain how Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandes being at the job before Olbermann said she was “corroborates” anything that Adams had alleged, at all. Let me give you a hint: It doesn’t.
Adams has ZERO evidence to back up his claim that Holder’s DOJ is deliberately dropping civil rights cases against black defendants because of their race. None. Zero.
The timing of Fernandes’ hiring at the DOJ does nothing to change that fact. Olbermann ran with information from a blog and he shouldn’t have.
Can you now, finally, address the distortions of O’Reilly or Adams?
Do you think Oliver’s headline is an accurate representation of the truth?
Dennis, the whole New Black Panther Party controversy is utter bullshit. Total, utter bullshit.
The DOJ dropped the civil action against two people because they did not have evidence of any wrongdoing and they prosecuted a third because they did.
You believe that the DOJ dismissed the case entirely, prosecuting no one, becuase the black attorneys at the DOJ don’t want to protect the voting rights of white people.
That’s why you’re a moron.
The timing of Fernandes’ hiring at the DOJ does nothing to change that fact. Olbermann ran with information from a blog and he shouldn’t have.
And Oliver, knowing that and going MIA?
That’s why you’re a moron.
I’m sorry, Dennis. Correction: That’s why you’re a complete moron.
So I’ve presented the evidence supporting this factual claim.
You can refute it anytime you want by proving that you are entirely correct to believe that the DOJ did, in fact, dismiss the case entirely, prosecuting no one, because the black attorneys at the DOJ don’t want to protect the voting rights of white people.
And Oliver, knowing that and going MIA?
Dennis, you’ve known the actual facts of this case since yesterday when they were spelled out to you quite clearly and you still linked to an O’Reilly piece which was TOTALLY FULL OF SHIT.
Can you explain that?
You can refute it anytime you want by proving that you are entirely correct to believe that the DOJ did, in fact, dismiss the case entirely, prosecuting no one, because the black attorneys at the DOJ don’t want to protect the voting rights of white people.
Adams testified under oath, fafaroo. We’ll see if he is charged with perjury, if, as you claim, he lied under oath. He testified that some career lawyers in the DOJ shared the apparent view of the Obama political appointees that no civil-rights cases of any kind should be brought against blacks. Blacks were intimidated at that polling station according to testimony, so your statement is a typically bogus one for you yet again.
Adams testified to hearsay. Give ‘em the chair!
Adams testified under oath, fafaroo.
Dennis, did the DOJ successfully prosecute the civil complaint against Minister King Samir Shabazz that Adams originally filed? Yes or no.
They downgraded his injunction from not going near any polling station into perpetuity to not going near one in Philadelphia until 2012.
No, fafaroo, I wouldn’t call that successful.
Would you?
Adams testified to hearsay. Give ‘em the chair!
You might want to watch Countdown tonight, Oliver. My prediction is he weasels his way through a half-apology.
But I think at least he will acknowledge his screw-up.
You’ve called Adams a serial liar, and he testified under oath. Is there no one at the DOJ willing to step up and say that this ‘serial liar’ is lying on the multiple fronts you say he is? He says other people if allowed to speak will back him up, those people being other than the ones who already have. Guess what, they aren’t being allowed to speak up.
And no one here has the inquisitiveness to ask why.
They downgraded his injunction from not going near any polling station into perpetuity to not going near one in Philadelphia until 2012.
So in other words, they didn’t dismiss the case against Minister King Samir Shabazz. Correct, Dennis?
Oh, and I’m glad you raised that point, Dennis. Because I just went back to re-read the original civil complaint filed by Adams and team. Here’s the full extent of the injunctive relief sought by Adams, in addition to paying for court costs:
So all the Adams and company were ever going to get in this case was to prevent the defendants from ever carrying weapons or wearing the NBPP uniform in front of polling places.
In other words, all of three of them could still stand athwart polling places, they just wouldn’t be able to do so with weapons or in NBPP uniforms.
That’s what this outrage is all about? Banning three guys from wearing berets for life?
Oh, wait. Of course, not. It’s about the completely unproven charge that the DOJ is refusing to prosecute black defendants, even though in the NBPP case it clearly prosecuted a black defendant.
But I think at least he will acknowledge his screw-up.
How magnanimous of you, Dennis. I wonder if O’Reilly ever will. Or how about you?
Olbermann doesn’t like being the butt of jokes like he was all over the place today over this. You’re the only commenting on O’Reilly, and even if he did read your lemming-drops, I don’t think he’d give a shit what you said. As for me, are you fucking serious….
“Except, of course, everything I’ve written and linked to is true.”
You didn’t link to anything. You willfully obfuscated
that fact. You’re as much a weasel as Indeed/Mister ed/Huh? is.
I don’t think he’d give a shit what you said. As for me, are you fucking serious…
Dennis, over a video clip of the guy with the baton, O’Reilly claimed that the DOJ dropped the case for lack of evidence.
That’s a completely deceptive commentary. You linked to it approvingly when you knew that O’Reilly was deceiving his audience. You knew it. But you linked to it anyway.
Why?
At that point I was still laughing at Oliver’s headline. What better way to mock the desperation of actually using a video clip of Keith Olbermann for back-up support than to post one of the guy who is literally kicking his ass back into last week every single night? So no, I didn’t fact-check all his good work.
Dennis, you are a homunculus. That’s what comes to mind the more I read your posts.
The desperate one is the guy posting in the comments of a blog non-stop with fake evidence vs facts.
the guy who is literally kicking his ass back into last week every single night
Literally!
So no, I didn’t fact-check all his good work.
So again, I go back to the original thesis: You don’t really care what the facts are in this situation.
Dennis:
Seeing that Andrew Breitbart’s fake pimp O’Keefe is looking at a lot of court time dealing wtih defamation lawsuits over falsifying videos in one of the last fake right wing outragefests promoted by Faux “News” are you doing all this to pad your resume in the hopes of taking his place?
I cannot for the life of me find any coherent reason where you would want to continue pushing a meme which is so discredited.
Unless you are on the Texas School Board.
keep fucking that chicken dude.
While the likes of dennis keep pushing the falsehoods Erick son of Erick drops the conservative playbook and reveals the next move:
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/36728_RedState.coms_Erickson-_Its_Willie_Horton_Time_Again
So once again, a major voice on the American right, someone who has a way of reaching out to the populace through the mainstream media wants to use racism to plant more fear in the white community knowing dul well the implications while laughably trying to claim the opposite of what he is doing.
And once again that Republican “big tent ” gets smaller and smaller.
