Keith Olbermanns commentary from Countdown.
quote:
...
In what country was Mr. Rumsfeld raised?
As a child, of whose heroism did he read?
On what side of the battle for freedom did he dream one day to fight?
With what country has he confused… the United States of America?
...
The confusion is about whether this Secretary of Defense, and this Administration, are in fact now accomplishing what they claim the terrorists seek: The destruction of our freedoms, the very ones for which the same veterans Mr. Rumsfeld addressed yesterday in Salt Lake City, so valiantly fought.

That was the best overall condemnation of the Bush administration, and the most powerful summation of its authoritarian tactics, and that I have ever heard.

Awesome.

Wonderful! The media is finally turning on these guys and it is about time.

Paul Hackett did a good job on O'Reilly on the 29th as well. I'm checking the 7 minute clip you can hear here. Click on the Rumsfeld piece. Some people don't agree with his ad homs however. It does make him look like the enemy. And on top of it the guest host addresses the ad homs as if it's the Dem's tactic when we know it's O'Reilly's standard act.
