        Good for you Lou. KO deserves that and more. I for one hope you do it!! Attacks on Lou's family are out of line. KO deserves anything he gets.

          I'd ask you to explain how KO attacked Lou's family. But unlike you, I heard what KO actually said.

            That would ruin POV's delusion, Julia.
            I too heard what Olbermann said. Sorry POV, no attack on Loony Lou's family.
            Go ahead and check it out. I dare you.

              KO called Dobbs' wife and daughter "Hispanic" and Lou hates Hispanics, so he considers it an attack.

          There was no attack, moron. Do you listen to everything the right-wing thugs put in your head, or do you occasionally do a fact-check just for giggles? My bet's on the first option...

          He didn't attack Dobbs' family unless you consider mentioning that they are Hispanic is derogatory. If that's the case, then it is YOU who is attacking Dobbs' family, not Olbermann.

          Wow. Even for you POV assuming that calling someone "hispanic" as an attack is beyond the pale. Why do you hate hispanics so much?

        And taller and more athletic. Lou doesn't last the first round.

        And our friend point(less)ofview wagers all of his credibility (heh-heh) on Dobbs.

      ha ha... nice plant call...

      CNN ratings are lower than MSNBC
      I watch KO and laughed my ass off when he ripped Lou Dobbs...
      I don't remember a riff on Lou Dobbs wife and kids other than him saying that Dobbs rails on illegal immigrants and his wife is Latina.

      I must be missing something.

        "I don't remember a riff on Lou Dobbs wife and kids other than him saying that Dobbs rails on illegal immigrants and his wife is Latina.

        Maybe so, but the caller said he heard them "viciously [sic] attacked" and Dobbs didn't correct him, so it must be true.

          Dobbs' wife is Debi Lee Segura . . . she is Hispanic and so are his children. Olbermann didn't "viciously attack" them. If the caller believes that stating that she and his children are Hispanic, then it is the CALLER who is viciously attacking them. Contrary to what Dobbs says day after day after day, Hispanics are good people deserving of respect. Apparently, his caller shares Dobbs' viewpoint.

      Lou has been roundly criticized by the right and the left for his birther affiliation and said some pretty nasty things about the critics, but he goes after Olbermann, and is insulted when Keith bites back? Buddy, you deserve it. And he didn't go after your wife, he went after your being against Latinos, you twit. She should be mad at you, too.

        Good point Bin...

        This might be something for the Justice Department to look at. Lou is now using the public airwaves to incite violence.

        It's one thing to be a sleazy moron, it's quite another to be a domestic terrorist.

        Meet Lou Dobbs!!

      This is all media hype, just a way to keep their watchers tuned-in.
      Keith at least makes me laugh. I have found a lot of truth in what Keith says though.

      "I believe the sky is purple. I believe everybody who calls in to comment on a TV program is exactly right. I believe people in the media are not fair subjects for exposes or satire."

      See, caller, regardless of what you believe, it does not change reality. I know, I know, it would be nice if it did. But it doesn't

      Or, in other words, Louie can dish it out, but he can't take it.

      One would imagine that Keith will reply tonight.

      Olberman will say things on TV that he would never say in person he is one of the few cable commentators who never discuss issues with someone with a different point of view.

        I don't see anyone complaining that they've asked to be on Keith's show and he has refused to have them on. I doubt anyone with a dissenting point of view would have the nerve to go on the show. They'd sooner face Matthews.

        He is a commentator . . . he doesn't have to. Understand the cable "opinion" networks . . . they are there to present opinion, not news. If you want news, you need to watch the little short blurbs on the half hour. If you want opinion, watch the prime time entertainment shows. Pick the one which most likely agrees with your viewpoint.

      Yeah, Lou will actually step up about the same time Hannity gets waterboarded for charity.

      I have to say, I disagree with alot of you when you said this nonsense would cost Lou his career. But, it looks more and more like he may actually not recover from this craziness. You can tell by his reactions the last week that he is becoming increasingly concerned about his career going down the tubes.
