More Olbermann Excellence

Keith Olbermann's latest Special Commentary last Thursday was another tour de force, taking Bush, then his top staff to task for their limitless ability to deny the realities of America's problems, especially the war in Iraq. The only problem, from the point of view of a blogger, is that the segment was slightly over YouTube's ten minute length limit. There are therefore two vids here. The first scours Bush himself. The second goes after Cheney, Rumsfeld and Rice.
"The President does not just hear what he wants. He hears things that only he can hear. It defies belief that this President and his administration could continue to find new unexplored political gutters into which they can wallow. Yet they do."

"Of course inherent in the Pentagon's warmaking functions is the regulation of Presidential war lust. Enacting that regulation should include everything up to symbolically wrestling the Chief Executive to the floor if necessary."
