Left-wing NBC éminence fou Keith Olbermann is well-known for playing fast and loose with the facts when it comes to politics. Apparently he is ignorant of American geography as well.
On yesterday's "Sunday Night Football," the Ed-Murrow-wannabe, who is fond of pointing out the slightest error on the part of Republicans as proof of their "stupidity," incorrectly told viewers that Colorado's capital, Denver, is west of the Rocky Mountains.
I have to agree with Bryan Preston, this incident is just the latest example of how Olbermann is a pale imitation of Dennis Miller.

Technically Speaking
November 27, 2007 - 11:29 ET by Del DolemonteDenver IS very slightly to the northwest of some of the Rockie Mountains, namely the Rockies to the south in New Mexico and west Texas. I'm sure Keef will give that as his excuse.

November 26, 2007 - 22:25 ET by motherbeltKeith, back atcha with your own words that you so smugly intoned to correct Bill O'Reilly:

When you look at a map......The Rocky Mountains..... are to the left of....... the city of Denver...that means........

BATH-TUB-BOY...
November 27, 2007 - 02:13 ET by danybhoyKeep this in mind when you see/hear/read his latest idiodic rant, he is an ivy leaguer. Says something about our education system, eh?
When you watch BathTubBoy on his show Meltdown...or when you see him doing highlights, remember that he is a broadcast professional. Don't try this at home.
Keep trying BathTubBoy, someday, maybe you will be number 1 in your timeslot, but as long as O'Reilly is on the air, you will never, EVER, be a ratings winner.

RATINGS...
November 27, 2007 - 13:36 ET by danybhoyI believe the top rated cable show is WWE Raw. Yep, professional wrestling, which I find is at a higher intellectual level then BathTubBoy's rants, I'm just saying.
