Video Olbermann: Facts lacking in Beck, Palin NRA speeches

Keith Olbermann recaps and corrects the important items covered inspeeches given by Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin this weekend. I haven’t the stamina, but can share some touching moments. Sarah Palin, having lied about President Obama’s actions to take away guns, went on to remind the NRA members, clutching their sidearms that they’re dealing with an ignorant public who are in love with cartoon character animals! We need reminding, "without being heartless," that that Bambi’s mother IS what’s for dinner! Really? Is deer served at the Wasilla Taco Bell? I digress, what a good time was had by all as she read ancient "you might be a redneck if" jokes from her Blackberry. Not only a crowd-pleaser but a knee slappin’ page our of ‘her own diary!" For a hundred thousand dollars, I’d read old jokes from a Blackberry, who am I kidding! Jan Brewer was on hand, pushing the latest lie in these circles, that the President wants "to divide us." The irony of Palin’s previous lie intended to divide the NRA groupies further from the President escaped Brewer.

I don’t know about the President and the touted divisiveness, but I may be having a split of the psychotic sort, now that I’ve seen the teary acceptance of an honorary doctorate by Glenn Beck! The sting is greatly lessened, with the degree coming from Jerry Fallwell’s Liberty University. Knowing how much he loves costumes and his blackboards, it will prove interesting to see his wardrobe in coming weeks.
