a happy good bye!

I would like to say thank you to the executives at NBC & MSNBC for making the choice to remove Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews as anchors of political events. I have never watched them for analysis, but I've read plenty of transcripts and watched enough video to know that these two are COMPLETELY in the tank for the liberal Democrats. My biggest problem with these two is that they call themselves reporters. That is a far cry from what they are. The Webster definition of a reporter is: a person employed to gather and report news. I don't see anything in that definition about interjecting their own biased opinion. Olbermann loves to bash conservatives and tout the liberial party line at every corner. Here's a quote from Chris Matthews during the presidential primary about a speech Obama gave;

"It's part of reporting this case, this election, the feeling most people get when they hear Barack Obama's speech. My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don't have that too often."

Does anyone really think that Matthews can be objective? I certainly don't believe so. Like Olbermann, he is going to hold the Democrats up any chance he gets. These two are not news reporters.

Don't get me wrong, while I have many problems with the Democrat philosophy (Socialism), I have no problem with someone wanting to be a Democrat. That's what is great about this country! You have the right to make that decision. I believe true Conservatism will win out every time, but you still have the right to make the wrong choice.

He felt a thrill going up his LEG?!?! I think that fella has deeper issues than being a democrat. ;)
