So Keith Olbermann got the boot. It was a surprise to everyone, with pretty much no one knowing before Olbermann made this statement on the air:
You kinda have to feel bad for since no one likes him. The guy was basically a dancing monkey for the left. He had this insular show with no one on to disagree with him so he could rant and rave his left-wing stupidity with no possibility of someone popping his pomposity; it was rather pointless really, and even many on the left started to recognize that and make fun of him.
Still, it was MSNBCs highest rated show, so they have to replace him with something. I’d say an actual dancing monkey. It would go on screen and dance and screech and liberals could watch and clap their hands and say how much that monkey was really giving it to the right. The left hasn’t been doing so great with reality lately; might as well embrace it.
As for Olbermann, I say reality show. Maybe one where he’s a bounty hunter. At the end of each episode after the perp was caught, Olbermann would give this bombastic speech about justice during which the perp would escape and spray Olbermann with his own bear mace. Now that would be some entertaining viewing!
How about a new Dating Game? Olberman would be the eligible guy every week, and then across the wall would be an assortment of fat chicks, really fat chicks, totally obese fat chicks, and a few guys for laughs! Olberman would be forced to sign up for 52 weeks…therefore 52 one week get-aways with his lovely picks on a cruise ship to Russia!
That was good. It sounds like it came out the wrong end though. Not too many things make me laugh on Monday morning. Thanks.

“I don’t begrudge Olbermann wanting more money, even though I thought he was wildly overpaid. If you think you can fetch a better price from a giant corporation for your low-rated show, why not go for it? Of course, putting your “greed” ahead of the cause you consider yourself vital to is a nice bit of hypocrisy for a prog like Olbermann.
But letting your staff sit in the dark until they hear the news on air, strikes me as precisely the sort of thing you’d expect from a self-involved jerk.”
I wonder if he took his chair with him. I hear it’s pretty badly soiled.
I thought I would feel like rejoicing when this news finally came, but since I’ve never watched AMessNBC the news is actually totally irrelevant to me.
“Still, it was MSNBCs highest rated show…”
That’s pretty much the same as being the king of the retards isn’t it?
Curses! I’ll never be “The Worst Person in the World” now. My life has lost all meaning.
Now who will tell us why we should all hate Sarah Palin and the Tea Party?
Marxists reality check: uberdooche was fired 3 weeks ago, but no one noticed so they had to repeat the story.
This just in, keef uberdooche has found a job as oprah’s stocking hanger. The washed up marxist will begin his new position immediately. Sources close to oprah state, keef uberdooche will make a fine garter clip, as long as his pasty whitness doesn’t clash with her legs.

I can’t help it. I keep listening to and it keeps making me laugh. It’s way better than the classic Dean scream.
Maybe olberdouche can play Sloth when they get around to remaking ‘The Goonies’
I just took a stroll over to Huffpo, and you know that things are bad for Olby when few of the posters there will stick up for him. Most of the posts I read went along the lines of, “too bad he’s gone, but he was a diva anyway.” That said, I have to pass along this gem from someone who was wondering what network might pick him up:
Who knew?
He’ll be back. Just wait and see. Excrement always rises to the surface eventually.
Being as he’s got a lot of experience being a professional a douche bag and all…perhaps he could go to work as national spokesman for the Acme Douche Bag Company. He could might find fortune and fame as the Billy Mays of the douche bag trade. Or he could run for Mayor of Chicago or senator from New York.
So the term douche bag can get you moderated!? Guess it could be worse look what happened to this poor guy….
Matthias: Look, I don’t think it should be a reason for moderation, just for saying “douche bag”.
[Everyone gasps]
Jewish Official: You’re only making it worse for yourself!
Matthias: Making it worse? How can it be worse? douche bag! douche bag! douche bag!
Jewish Official: I’m warning you! If you say “douche bag” one more time (gets hit with rock) RIGHT! Who did that? Come on, who did it?
Stoners: She did! She did! (suddenly speaking as men) He! He did! He!
Jewish Official: Was it you?
Stoner: Yes.
Jewish Official: Right…
Stoner: Well you did say “douche bag.”
[Crowd throws rocks at the stoner]
Jewish Official: STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! STOP IT! All right, no one is to stone _anyone_ until I blow this whistle. Even… and I want to make this absolutely clear… even if they do say, “douche bag.”
[Crowd stones the Jewish Official to death]
OK, since us picking at Olbernotevenclosetobeinghumann got him fired, whose next.
It’s part of Comcast’s master plan:
1) Buy NBC and the dancing monkey channel, MSNBC
2) Fire Olbermann
3) ?????????
4) Profit!!
Or maybe GE’s master plan:
1) Dump NBC and the dancing monkey channel, MSNBC
2) Relief.
I don’t know, guys. I’m going to miss the guy. He was good for an easy target when I felt like making fun of the typical, left-wing media and didn’t feel like having to be challenged. I guess there’s always Chris Matthews.
Maybe MSNBC will rehire him on the dancing monkey show as the stagehand in charge of cleaning up poo.
well now that FOX is a Pagan/Tea Party network that caters to Libertarians
MSNBC could become a Right Wing Christian News network. At this point they
have nothing to lose
OlberDork may be able to get a gig imitating Ben Affleck imitating himself on SNL. That, or he joins WWE, gets hit over the head with a chair, and becomes the amnesia-induced Olberconservative.
