Show them the goddamned fang
Okay. I know I'm not American, and I know some of you aren't either. But watch this. Only so that you know where Keith Olbermann is coming from when you watch this.
Wow. Just wow. I am too used to thinking of Olbermann as just an ex-sports anchor. I can't justify it even a little, but watching him say what he needs to say makes me feel very, very proud (of being progressive? or rational? or just human?). I just saw it with my own eyes, and I still can't believe he said it on a national news show. He's not Edward R. Murrow, as he himself stresses, but if he's the best American news can do right now I suddenly feel better about their chances.

Verily.
So, quasi anonymous person... does the name mean we're supposed to dismiss you out of hand as a clever way of dismissing an actual argument?
