Comments on: As expected, Olbermann defends Webb’s smut books, but a year ago he slammed a similar type book of Scooter Libby’s

Simply another example of lib double standards. Not at all surprised. I doubt if the three people who watch him are surprised, either.

But I have to say, that I never saw the need for such graphic depictions in either books or films, except for the obvious hope for boosted sales. It’s like cussing in stand-up comedy. Apparently there’s no faith in one’s creative abilities if one must fall back on sex and those who do so are quite deserving of derision no matter their party affiliations. I like naked women as much as the next guy, but if I must have it, that’s what porn is for. Some like to think it’s adult and sophisticated to pepper their films or books with such things, but they’re anything but. Even in the best movie, I feel cheated of some of my time and a piece of the ticket price if I have to sit through a sex scene, despite how attractive the actress might be. As to the actors or actresses themselves, they are every bit a whore and the producer and/or directors every bit a pornographer, if they think such actions make them more “important” or “progressive” in their work. OK, I’m done. I can’t see the Dallas-Carolina game very well from atop this soap-box.

Olbermann couldn’t care less about consistency, fairness, accuracy or even truth. Olbermann’s chief objective is to do anything in his power to make as many conservatives look bad on his show. It doesn’t matter if he has to lie, obfuscate, fabricate or whatever. He is more than willing if he thinks it will make conservatives look bad. As a result, he has become an absolute disgrace and shameful example of yellow journalism.

Oddly enough, KO seems to have missed Barbara Boxer’s bodice ripping political thriller altogether.

Thank for nothing! I’ll never get that image out of my mind!

It’s almost enough to make ya thnk they were more interested in the ideology of the authors than the actual stories, ain’t it?

Nah, that can’t be it.

Oddly enough, KO seems to have missed Barbara Boxer's bodice ripping political thriller altogether. A San Diego based Talk show host did some dramatic readings when it first came out. Just eeuuww.
