What we want is them to fire Olbermann and all the other fake journalists and their editors and producers and put in people with journalistic integrity.  If not, then we want them to go bankrupt along with GE.  I no longer buy anything with GE name on it.

MSNBC is such a joke !  Way too many corrupt and dishonest people there, all taking orders from higher powers ; just like the dishonest and corrupt representatives who are running around The White House !

Cynical, your post made me laugh. College equals smarts? Um, have you noticed the ratings of Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh compared to Maddow or Olbermann? Proving again that college isn’t worth crap. And if you take a moment to notice that many of the people in the last administration as well as this one who are running our country straight into the ground have educations from the most prestigious colleges in the land. Worthless.
Common sense and experience over college any day. This is why so many people relate to Palin and Limbaugh and Beck – they got their hands dirty or actually failed at something or actually WORKED or ran a business for a living.

Olbermann defines the lunacy of the left better than anyone I know.  Keeping someone like him who is so obviously partisan should be a constant reminder to all of us of how dishonestly news can be manipulated and slanted.  It must be noted, also, that Olbermann is so obnoxious that few listen to him.  Better an idiot we know than some really clever conman who might persuade people that a man with absolutely no qualifying experience can run a country.  [However, I do wish they would remove him from Sunday Night Football (The option of just changing the channel does on apply as well there!).]  The only thing I liked about Olbermann’s transfer to the news that it got him out of sports announcing where he also has absolutely no idea of what he is talking about, and is just as obnoxious!]

‘Smarts’ is something you are either born with or not, knowledge and education are things you acquire.  Both are valuable.  Would you allow a ‘smart’ person who never went to medical school operate on you?

Ratings are meaningless, after all, which sells more, Taylor Swift or JS Bach?  Checkers or chess?
The reasons for FOX ratings have been amply established, conservatives tend to be older people with little to do other than watch TV.  It’s also well known that Murdoch donates lots of TV’s to hospitals, health clubs, etc. with the requirement that FOX be the default channel.  This is the case at my local gym, at 8PM all 33 TV’s automatically switch to FOX until 11PM.

The bottom line is that the majority of Americans are fat and stupid, more than half of American adults can’t read above the 4th grade level, and the obesity problem is well established.  Stupid people turn to stupid people for their info, hence the popularity of Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh.

What’s interesting is that all three of these individuals TRIED college and failed miserably.

That says it all.

Matthews worked for Carter…need I say more? As for Maddow and Olbermann, there just is no excuse, all of them on that network are hacks. But Jeffery Immelt is getting them a Stimulus Package (under the guise of supporting NBC), he owns both…we still ban GE products.

If I watch Sunday Night Football, I record it and watch it 30 minutes behind the actual game so I can skip over the Half Time Show.

I have no doubt that the producers of Sunday Night Football have heard objections from a great number of viewers concerning Olbermann, both that he is obnoxious and also that his commentary is so patently worthless and inept.  They just don’t seem to care.  There so many other good choices for NFL commentary that they may just have low expectations anyway.  Or perhaps—and nearer the truth—the fact that they hired Olbermann in the first place may be an indication that the producers themselves are not too bright!

Well, I hope they are bright enough when I continue with my boycott of their Station’s Advertisers, hit’em where it hurts…In the pocket-book.

I am using my RNC/TEA Party list, they do not like Olbermann just because of who he is…although this really is not political. I used a Header above the Boycott Letter which says: “Want to see Keith Olbermann lose a job?” Then the message. It will be run through the RNC database…

Is there a list somewhere which conservative consumers are able to view of products which we might not wish to purchase, regarding who they sponser ? I stopped purchasing any product that has any connection with Princess Pelosi, for instance.

Hi Diane,

It is difficult to boycott a single or a few products (manufacturers) for a single candidate, unless you find an ad from a product supporting that person. Most ad agencies are not allowed to promote a person in either House, it would be seen as an illegal campaign contribution.

However there are many legitimate Party contributors, often times that money goes to the DNC/RNC to be distributed where it is most needed. The DNC keeps their list of Donors under lock and key, but some admit to doing so…

Thus in the past we have Boycotted; Ben & Jerry’s, Starbucks, G.E., Apple (My wife even gave her iPod away to the Salvation Army), Target, DirecTV, General Motors…just to name a few. But you must have an army of people behind your petition (boycott). We have really been going after the LameStream Media, especially NBC/MSNBC (they were hit so hard, they actually receive Stimulus Money from Obama), NY Times and all Liberal Newspapers (they too are expected to get Stimulus Money).

To hit the individuals the hardest, you might have to be in their district during a campaign. That way you can boycott the local Radio, Television, and Newspapers for running their ads. If you want to get at Pelosi, focus on California, especially the San Francisco area. But the Big Three all have local affiliates.

We are getting close to focusing on Union Companies, they stand to garner the most from supporting Democrats and are in bed with Obama.

This White House and its staff are a bunch of lying weasels. No offense to weasels.

Oh, I almost forgot, you can go to the Huffington Post Online, Media Matters site, and the Daily Kos website and see who is sponsoring their sites.

Thanks, Wes !

Once again, appreciated.  Even while I was in the grocery store yesterday…..I once again thought, “What brand am I purchasing here that I would much prefer to be purchasing from another company.”  And thinking that I need to become much more aware.

Happy New Year, by the way !  Let’s hope that this coming year will be the biggest and best year to celebrate !  Hopefully , we are going to kick out all of those thugs and criminals, and Marxists who are working so hard to steal away our country. 

Also, I wanted to mention somehwere along the way, but will choose here: I watched a long documentary last night on The Military Channel about Hitler and his body gaurd,  and leanred several new things. Always scares me to see just how much our current administration is doing much of what resembles what Hitler did in his early reign of power; and I wished that every American could have been watching the same program last night.  Interesting to me how they said that Hilter used a crisis sometimes , and even created a crisis when he felt neccessary to get control in his favor….all in order to take more control.  And I immediately remembered several in Obama’s administration during this past year saying. “Never let a crisis go to waste.”  I for one, think they are also a bunch of power hungry vultures !

Happy New Year Diane, and all! May it be a year of meaningful change…And to every-one’s health and good will!

Over the past year, comparison’s have been made often to Hitler, Karl Marx, Lenin, and Nero.

I hope they are not able to get ObamaCare out of Conference, it comes down to that one group between the signing of the Bill. But I believe Cap and Trade is DOA.

I think MSNBC has taken the role of more of a “team player” for the current administration and they report or don’t report accordingly. Before the election cycle of 2008 I liked to watch Hardball. I was watching Matthews when he had his “tingle up the leg” moment. That was pretty much it for me watching him. He was lovestruck. I tried watching Olberman a few months later, but honestly he speaks in some kind of code speak of left wing acronyms now. You need a decoder ring to try to keep up. He is unintelligible a lot of the time. I am done with this network.

The Hitler and Marx hyperboles are always bad, for two reasons.  One, it makes Hitler and the tragedy of Marxism less evil and devastating, and two, name-calling tends to block any real substantial argument.  Many young people have heard George Bush called Hitler and the Republicans called Nazi’s so many times these last eight years (nothing new under the sun, Truman called the Republicans Nazi’s!) that they they wonder what WWII was all about and listen to the contrarians like the Vidal’s and Buchannan’s who call our entry into WWII a mistake!.  Even the colleges are playing down American and world history these days,  preferring partisan anti-American rantings to footnoted history—if you don’t believe me, read one of the current college survey course American history books.
