MSNBC Host Lawrence O’Donnell Admitts, “I am a Socialist” … Really, Who Would Have Thunk It?

Following the 2012 Midterm elections and the “shellacking” they received, the LEFT is losing their minds. It would appear that they noe feel there is no need to hide the truth … MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell admitted  … “I am a socialist”.

The truth shall set you free Lawrence, however, as the Gateway Pundit stated, so you are a socialist, “now tell us some thing we don’t know”.

More VIDEO can be seen at The Blaze.

UPDATE I: From Salon … self proclaimed socialist Lawrence O’Donnell now denied his own words. Wtach are you going to believe, O’Donnell’s words or your lies eyes and ears?

O’Donnell repeatedly insisted that I had attributed to him views that he did not actually express, and several times repeated that he said none of what I criticized him for saying; after the segment, he continued spouting that same accusation.  As I told him both during the segment and after, only the transcript will resolve that question, and — as I’ll demonstrate in a moment — it does.  First, here is the entirety of what I wrote about his remarks:

San Fran Nancy Pelosi Says She Will Run for Democrat House Minority Leader

San Fran Nan just won’t go away … Pelosi says she will run for the Democrat Minority leadership in the House.

Nancy Pelosi will soon have the gavel ripped from her hands after the 61+ US House  pickups after the 2010 midterm elections; however,Pelosi says she will run for Democrat minority leader. How out of touch is Pelosi and the Democrat party if they actually continue to make Pelosi the face of the Democrat House?

Nancy Pelosi has become the gift that keeps on giving …

I’m Back!!!

Pelosi told collegues in a letter that “our work is not finished” and announced her plans to the world via Twitter shortly thereafter by posting this message: “Driven by the urgency of creating jobs & protecting [health care reform and Wall Street reform], Social Security & Medicare, I am running for Dem Leader,” Pelosi Tweeted.

Nancy Pelosi has become like Jason from Friday the 13th … she just wont go away. The Democrat party has lost their collective minds if the elect Pelsoi minority leader, an individual with a job approval rating in the toilet.

For some shell-shocked House Democrats who held on in tough districts Tuesday, Pelosi’s decision is a bad dream come true.

Keith Olbermann Suspended by MSNBC for Making Donating in Violation of NBC’s Ethics Policy

NEWSFLASH … LIBERAL BIAS MSM TYPES DONATE TO LIBERAL DEMOCRATS …

Olbermann suspended from MSNBC for violating ethics and standards. Wait a minute, MSNBC has ethics and standards, since when?

MSNBC has supended Keith Olbermann  indefinately for making campaign donations in violations with NBC’s ethics policies. Olbermann was suspended without pay by Phil Griffin, President of MSNBC. Olberman supposedly violated NBC’s ethics policy that bars political activity, including contributions, without the approval of the president of NBC News. Oops, but of course the rules apply to others.

Keith Olbermann has been suspended indefinitely without pay from MSNBC for making donations to three Democrats in violation of NBC’s ethics policy.

“I became aware of Keith’s political contributions late last night,” Phil Griffin, President of MSNBC, said in a statement. “Mindful of NBC News policy and standards, I have suspended him indefinitely without pay. NBC’s ethics policy generally bars political activity, including contributions, without the approval of the president of NBC News.

Olbermann, who does not hide his liberal views, has acknowledged donations of $2,400 each to Kentucky Senate candidate Jack Conway and Arizona Reps. Raul Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords during this election cycle.

Does MSNBC think that Olbermann donating money to politicians would pose a conflict of interest? Does MSNBC brass think that the campaign donations showed a liberal bias? ARE THESE PEOPLE SERIOUS?All one would have to do is watch Keith Olbermann’s cable show, if one could stomach it, to see the conflict of interest and liberal bias tat takes place every night. Or as the Jawa Report states, wouldn’t a Olbermann commentary simply show the conflict?

However, one has to wonder what Keither Olbermann was thinking? Why would he think he was above the law in not disclosing who he had given campaign donations to his superiors and public. To not do so and have these very people on his show is a journalistic no no. Even the folks at the Huffington Post are scratching their heads at Olbermann’s actions.

So will Keith Olbermann make himself “the Worst Person in the World”. That is if he still has a job.

One also has to speculate whether the MSNBC reaction and suspension of Olbermann is a backlash to the poor media critique that MSNBC received for their disasterous and pathetic 2010 election coverage?

Bill Kristol of “The Weekly Standard”makes a rather compelling defense for Olbermann. And as much as I think that Olbermann is a clown, I have to agree in mant respects with Kristol. Olbermann is not a news man, he is nothing more than than an opinionated  liberal with a microphone.

First, he donated money to candidates he liked. He didn’t take money, or favors, in a way that influenced his reporting.

Second, he’s not a reporter. It’s an opinion show. If Olbermann wants to put his money where his mouth is, more power to him.

Third, GE, the corporate parent of MSNBC, gives money to political organizations. GE executives and, I’m sure, NBC executives give money. Why can’t Olbermann?

Der Spiegel Writes …’Obama Comes Across as Cold, Arrogant and Elitist’

I  thought that President Barack Obama was an International rock star, man of mystery and loved by Europe … Guess not. From the German media media Der Spiegel come the following that ‘Obama Comes Across as Cold, Arrogant and Elitist.’

It was a failure of historic proportions.With US President Barack Obama’s Democrats having lost control of the House, there seems little hope for progress during his two remaining years, say German commentators. Obama himself, they say, bears much of the blame.

On Tuesday, US President Barack Obama and his Democratic party were issued a stinging defeat in the mid-term elections as the Republicans gained control of the House of Representatives and installed themselves in 22 governor’s mansions.

Several German opinion-makers were clear that the election was more of a referendum on the president, who comes across as “cold, arrogant, and elitist,” and less of an endorsement of the Republicans and their policies. There is widespread agreement in the editorial pages that Obama failed to make the case for his administration’s accomplishments, a fact that he himself has acknowledged.
