Olbermann, the Rush Limbaugh of the left, not worth watching.

Joel: Your assertion of symmetry is a typical ploy ... the final bastion, the last gasp, the third time down, of a failed and vanishing ideology.

Greg: Your turn of phrase suggests you've watched far too much of Olbermann, his Edward R. Murrow impersonations, and faux outrage. :)

Limbaugh lies outright. Smears and repeating a lie to make it true are his only avenue. Olbermann certainly leans but he does not lie the way Limbaugh does. Comparing the two does justice to neither. One browbeats you with his mouth, the other (tries) to inspire you with his insight. Ditto-heads need not reply.

Bah, they both browbeat. But the point about blatent fabrication is well taken. Olberman has realized long ago that using someone's own words against them can be every bit as effective.
You don't have to make anything up to make Michele Bachmann look like a lunatic.
