Video's from Countdown with Keith Olbermann. He's the only newscaster who dares to tell it like it is and speak the truth.
Countdown with Keith Olbermann for Tuesday July 10, 2007. Stories: 1. Bush in the Bubble - You're not listening. Olbermann fact checks the delusional Bush. 2. Debunking Fredo - Gonzalez is caught in some more lies. So what else is new? I guess they'll call him up to capitol hill before congress so that he can tell some more. 3. Michael Moore vs. CNN - Moore pitches a shutout against CNN. In this segment, Rachael Maddow and Keith examine the news philosophy of feeling that they have to put on another side to a news story for balance, even if that other side is a lie or completely fabricated. 4. Springfield Vermont is the Simpsons winner. 5. Another Republican hypocrite brought to us once again by the state of Louisiana, this time in the form of David Vitter, who has a fine eye for young women in brothels. All this and more on this edition of Countdown with Keith Olbermann.

Here is part two of the June 28 episode of Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
Okay, since Veoh doesn't want to cooperate in letting me upload the whole show at once, I'll do it in parts. This is part one of Countdown with Keith Olbermann, Thursday June 28, 2007.
Keith Olbermann gives his theories on how the Harry Potter series will end in the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
And does it in a way that only Keith can. His obvious disdain about having to cover these crappy stories shines and because of that his segments on stuff like this are infinitely more entertaining than coverage you will find anywhere else.
Keith's show features segments on Dick Cheney, Habeas Corpus, Bill O'Reilly and Paris Hilton jail problems.
Starting off we have the House passing a bill partially funding the war up until the end of July, at which time Bush is suppose to provide a progress report. Don't look for the Senate to pass it and if they do Bush will veto it. The visit by the Republicans to the White House may have been nothing more than grandstanding. General Batiste is fired by CBS for appearing in a Vote Vets ad. A funny segment on Dueling Gonzaleses. Keith does a bit on Family Guy.
Republicans go to the White House and tell Bush he has no credibility on the Iraq war. Uh...huh. Tell us something we don't know. Attacks in Iraq are up since the beginning of the surge. Some Generals take Bush to task over the Iraq War. Fredo Gonzales is headed back to the hill. O.J. is asked to leave a restaurant and he cries racism. American Idol become I-dull.
Here is Tuesday's program. Better late than never. To find out what it's about check the opening of the show. My glasses are broken and I can't see a freaking thing.
So what do I have for you today? Kansas, the state that votes about 90 percent Republican (well, at least 70 per cent) regardless of how crappy the candidate is finally gets screwed by Bush. With National Guard troops and needed equipment in Iraq, there is nobody to clean up the mess left by a major tornado. Gonzogate is back. The attorney firing scandal may be part of what was a wide plan to suppress Democratic voters at the poll. Keith and Rachael Maddow discuss. The Yankees pay an obscene amount of money to a 44 year old pitcher to pitch for half of a year. When you have money to burn, I guess you burn. I mean, has Roger Clemens suddenly become impoverished that he really needs to do this? And now you know why I am no longer a baseball fan. Ridiculous. Bush insults the Queen, Lou Dobbs and Bill Orally make worst persons list.
Hillary Clinton wants to de-authorize the war in Iraq. Keith Comments on the Republican Debate. All you need to know about that is if you are a white male who believes a woman's place is on a Betty Crocker box, or if you want to double up the deaths in Iraq, if you are anti-stem cell research, if you like us to be beholding to big corporations and big business, if you believe some lawmaker knows more about what a woman should be able to do with her body more than her or her doctor , if you don't believe in the separation of church and state, then vote for one of these idiots. More on Karl Rove's involvement in Gonzogate. A segment on the the police attacking protestors in L.A. Britney gives a very short concert and it's 45 days in the pokey for Paris Hilton. Oddball plays of the month.
Tonight: Democrats and Republicans meet with Bush to try and move forward after his veto, but bush wants to go backwards. Did Monica Goodling break the law? The Police charged a crowd with tear gas and now warning. Imus suing CBS over dismissal. Dry Cleaner gets sued over a lost pair of pants for millions of dollars. And Idol jumps the shark.

Countdown with Keith Olbermann - On the Anniversary of Mission Accomplished
Most of Keith's show has to do with two subjects. The anniversary of Bush walking out on an aircraft carrier in a flight suit and declaring Mission Accomplished. Olbermann also covers Bush's veto of a troop funding Bill that would also have set a timeline to bring the troops home. On another story, we are back to Gonzales Gate and how Gonzales gave two subordinates the power to hire people whose only requisite for the job was whether or not they were loyal Bushies. At one point it becomes rather clear that we are not that far removed from resembling the Old Soviet Union as a country.
Keith is back and he is back with a Vengeance. Tonight, 22 per cent of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction. But...George and Laura suffer the most while they dance. Why is Rudy going back to the politics of fear? Keith puts him in his place with a special commentary. The Factor Fiction returns and Keith explains why Billo hates being quoted.....accurately. Rosie calls it a day on the view and so much more. Good show.
Keith is still gone, but I know he is going to co-host the pre and post debate shows on Thursday. There will certainly be no countdown that day. But again Alison is here to fill in ably. Check out her blouse. I know it won't be the same on here but that color she is wearing literally popped out of my big screen today. A bit much for a news person but who cares. Just watch the beginning for a rundown of stories but John Mellencamp is a guest.
