I agree--I signed a petition to get him back on. He's the greatest commentator on the TV. |

280,002. Amazing.
It's not that he MADE a contribution, it's that he did it KNOWING it violated his employers policies, and his contract.

EXACTLY!!! The point IS that this was the MSNBC POLICY that was broken. This is an issue between an employer and an employee.....plain and simple!! Most media outlets don't have such a policy. |

All Olbermann had to do was ask permission from MSNBC, and I'm sure that they would have approved and granted him permission. Just wait until the Reps start investigating the offers of a job to drop out of the race to allow another Dem to win, the voter intimidation by the Black Panthers, and voter fraud by all the Dem organizing groups and then you'll hear the liberal press scream. |

and from Bumble: "EXACTLY!!!The point IS that this was the MSNBC POLICY that was broken. This is an issue between an employer and an employee.....plain and simple!! Most media outlets don't have such a policy." **************************************************************************************************** Two posters who are so upset about a "RULE" of a broadcasting company with it's employees. Not a LAW, but a Rule. When G WORST BUSH commuted Scooter Libby's FELONY convictions... NOT A RULE BUT A FELONY LAW, I didn't hear a roar of outrage on this board... or does the OUTRAGE only apply when it's a Liberal broadcaster breaking a company policy, not The President of the United States setting aside a FELONY CONVICTIONS. Selective Outrage! |

MSNBC may have a dress coded also... neither Olberman or their dress code are of interest to me... but I do enjoy the Selective Outrage of those who will celebrate any real or imagined Liberal misstep.
(For more see the bogus "$200million a day Obama India Trip" outrage) |

Selective Outrage!
Liberal rule #1 - In any argument, regardless of the topic, envoke the name of George W Bush to make your point. Box even dusted off Scooter Libby to make his fallacy argument. Did Fox News even report Olbermanns suspension? I've never seen so much misguided anger. Shouldn't you libs be angry at the Management at MSNBC? Yet somehow you drag Fox News, Scooter Libby, and GWB into the fray. Bush Derangement Syndrome doesn't die easy. |

In about 80% of cases... Bush DOES make the point. |

Did CNN cover the story?
Did Rupert Murdock suspend Olbermann? How about Ted Turner? No, I know, it was Cheney and Haliburton that suspended Olbermann. No,No,No, I got it, it was Nixon, yeah, Nixon is responsible for this unjust suspension. I've got a better one, how about this - the management at MSNBC are ASSHOLEAPHOBES, they discriminate against A$$HOLES. Hahahahaha...

I'll type slower so maybe you can get it...
A huge issue? Olberman??? Some guy gets suspended at MSNBC for stealing paperclips and it's a Conservative talking point.
GWB gets 4300+ Americans killed in a failed Iraqi Oil Grab... it's a mistake... hardly worth typing a post.
