WTF??? Keith Olbermann suspended indefinitely without pay by MSNBC for making political contributions to Democrat candidates without permission (a violation of NBC conflict of interest policy).
Apparently he gave $2,400 (the maximum allowable) to 3 candidates, Conway, Grijalva and Giffords. The FEC filings are available in pdf format at Politico.
This is an outrage! Are you telling me that NBC didn't know Olbermann was in the tank for the Democrats? Or are they just ashamed that his actions have now removed all doubt?

On a side note, Lawrence O'Donnell, also of MSNBC admitted to being a Socialist this morning on the "Morning Joe" show. I supposed they'll have to fire him too since it's obvious he can't be considered "objective" when reporting on political matters.

shhhh... don't make a fuss. Keith has become a bit of a liability and this is 'a convenient truth.' it's best if this just goes off quietly dontcha think?
The Party knows best and bathtub boy will be well compensated. (one beet a day for life)

I find this a head scratching moment. Did they think Comrade Oberblubberman was a Rethuglican? Did they think he was a Palin supporter?? Do they not know of his unfettered and fettered loyalty of dearest fearless Leader?? (he had just as much running down up his leg as Comrade Matthews!) Do they expect him to give equally redistritued funds to Rethugs??!! So confusing. So shocking.
Make all the bad news stop.
Babushka, this may be the big one.

Olbermann's suspension is useful for our narrative that MSNBC is just another GOP mouthpiece run by the KKKapitalist KKKabal. This is just another proof that all media is right-wing media. We must make sure that this story lives for generations to come.
Having established that even MSNBC is a right-wing puppet, we now have a winning argument for the reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine. Move forward firmly, comrades! The Current Truth™ is on our side!

MSNBC didn't suspend him on the basis of contributing to the Democrat Party many more equivalent dollars in daily free plugs to their policies on "his" show paid for by MSNBC. Combined over the years, those free ads and infomercials are at least a 1000 times more valuable than the measly $2,400 he gave them directly.
In other words, comrades: keep doing what you're doing, just don't be overt about it. Olbermann has lost the sense of caution and was rightfully punished.

Comrade, You know the rule, never never ever admit you are a Communist. He must be sacrificed so that others learn from his example.

(one beet a day for life) Yes, just like Comrade Van Jones are other fallen Comrades, they always resurface again somewhere, Comrade Soros makes sure they do.
Comerade Olbermanavich was not rated very high in the motherland TV ratings. He gave money to the Communsit Democrats. ALthough his heart was in the right place, he had a personality that begged to be hit in the face with the drooping breast of a 70 year old beet-farm worker.
Yes....for the good of the party....the party reported him to themselves and now they have to dispose of him. He will either be visiting Jimmy Hoffa or, if lucky, he will be Michelle obama's yard boy.

Red Square's current truth is closer to the other truth than thought by those who think.
There has been talk in certain talking circles that Comcast, the new owner's of MSNBC are intent on changing the political slant (lean forward to the left) in order to improve ratings (those capitalist pigs only see the bottom line). All that said getting rid of guys like Olbermann with his habitually low ratings was a top priority (since he would never moderate his feelings or leanings to appease upper management).
Just like Juan Williams and NPR, this is a termination of ulterior motives. Rachel Mancow and Chrissy Matthews may be the next to go.

I denounce Shovel 4 U! As comrade Red has shown us, there is no such thing as bad news, it's just news. The Party determines what the news really means, then they explain The Current Truth.
The rightwing kapitalist kabal took over the whole country in an open coup and now they're getting away with murder! Dick Cheney himself ordered Olbermann fired.
And to think that just a few short months ago it seemed the socialist revolution was just around the corner...

Those mean spirited Rethuglicans!!! I demand Keith's immediate reinstatement!!!
Because I need someone to make fun of along with Rachel Madcow.

This is an outrage. My political advisers recommend that I begin drinking heavily. Stunned, I am. Stunned and confused and mad and angry and hurt... This can not stand! I will begin calling the right people to get this rectalfied.
Remove his impartiality, are you kidding me?! Overbite's impartiality was gone before he stepped onto the stage, and that isn't even by default of being human. Let's not only forget his show is about him running a commentary on current events, meaning HE GIVE US HIS OPINION ABOUT A TOPIC. He's not suppose to report it unbiasedly, not that PMSNBC has a good track record of doing that though.
Comrades, I understand he took a glorious position with the dear leader. He is joining the glorious entourage and will be India helping to carry the throne dear leader will be riding. Just like Xerxes in 300. Watch out for the coconuts.

Comrade Red;
Tonight all across the USSA, Children ™ are being denied Olbernoman reading them a Thurber bedtime story and this is somehow not bad news? They are not being coddled in the loving arms of progressive
Not to mention the Peoples Dairy ™ . Who else here has a degree in cow?
This means less cowbell for the collective. I rest my case.
Otis is right, and the rest of you don't get it. Why, the rest of you so don't get it that I suspect all of you of having voted Republican this last Tuesday.
Can't you see what's happening here? Not two days since they stole the House from The Party, and already the free speech-hating right wing is cracking down on anyone who doesn't march in lockstep with their fascist worldview. Why, so drunk are they on their newly acquired power, that they can't even wait until they're sworn in.
In fact, I hear John Boehner has had a seal made up with the words "Office of the Speaker of the House Elect" and that it's even on the back of his chair and along the fuselage of his private jet.
Cheney ordered the firing of Olbermann not only because he gave money to The Party, but because he consistently got higher ratings than O'Reilly. The Republicans know that in spite of their illegitimate win--or should I say, because of it--that they're outnumbered and their grip on power is tenuous at best. Because of that, they will be desperate to crack down and crush any dissent, and this time they're starting from the top--remember, THEY'RE the ones who cling to the long disproved, debunked, and totally wrong "trickle down" theory.
Knocking out those higher up is meant to instill fear and confusion in the masses, as it will leave them with no one to tell them what to think--except the likes of Fox News and Limbaugh.
And all of you are already showing signs that the Republicans' scheme is working!

Comrades,
The long and the short of this is do you cair if Keith has suspenders? He should be allowed to wear his suspenders as long as every comrade wears suspenders and approval has descended from Red Square.
However, suspenders of many or odd colors many not be worn, a standardized color is to be chosen. Most likely dark black, and the reason is profound: Black suspenders never get dirty.

Comrade Marxist, you are probably filled with all correctness. He smelled the $2million Juan boy is getting and wanted is fair share. Who knew he had a capitalist pig hiding inside himself. 
I must admit, I do not know what this says, but it is very impressive is it not.

Surely this is not Keith's Fault! Either Conway, Grijalva and Giffords are a treacherous troika that must be purged immediately for actually FILING Keith's pittance, which in essence was not a contribution but the standard 15% gratuity you tip the wait staff, or George Bush filed these phony so-called "campaign contributions". A Ha! Therein lies the rub! Who in theirright correct socialist mind would consider a mere $2,400.00 a REAL contribution? Only a stinking RethugliKKKan who doesn't know how to play with OPM, that's who!
Blame BUSH!

WTF??? Keith Olbermann suspended indefinitely without pay by MSNBC for making political contributions to Democrat candidates . . .Dearest Comrade Whoopie,
Er, uh, I hate to chastise you in front of other comrades, but over the past two years, there has been a strict policy among our kind to use the term "Democratic" whenever possible, or as I like to say: Democra-TICK, with the emphasis on the TICK. Your calling them Democrat candidates is a serious faux pas. Just to simplify matters, it is a good idea to use the term Democra-TICK (
It has been brought to my recollection that Comrade Olbermann has been guilty of overt crimes of disclosure in the past. He was taken off the '08 convention coverage for drooling on Obama in excess of Chrissy Matthews.
Leninka I do appreciate your point. I know how sensitive Democrats are to being called that. However to be grammatically correct the name of their Party is the Democratic Party and that would make them individually Democrats.
Honestly, the entire concept of democracy and being democratic makes me a bit queasy. The Party name is a hold over from the days of Andrew Jackson and bears little relevance to the modern day Party. Personally I think Social Democrats (as they are called in Europe) would be more fitting.

LUMBERJACKS AND COWBELLS OH MY!!!!
Rest assured Comrades...
of course it makes no sense....

This is not good. It really hurts our efforts. Olbermann was extremely effective with all of our useful idiots. I'm not sure that Ed Shultz can pick up the slack as he caters to our barking moonbats.
Sorry Whoopie... you brought the turd Olbermann up...
