Where are the ratings for the finale of pretty little liars?
Keith O had a good night last night!
Morning Express did well in the 25-54 demo again, almost catching up with FOX & Friends.
Compared to whom?
The only way half talk show host olbermann can beat the Great Bill O’Reilly is to get a rope and hang himself on air, even I would watch that.
Boy, you must like violence, CaptainKen. I mean, really, enjoy your Great Bill show, but come up with something more original, other than your desire to watch another human being hang. I’m waiting for your learned response
What a wonderful idea! I agree, what the heck was so good about Olbermann’s ratings? I am convinced
libs will say anything and reading posts like the boss man proves it.
Oh yes, I have a rope!
You righties have been calling for Keith O to get the can when Comcast takes over MSNBC. That is soooooo ridiculous. I’m sure Comcast will be thrilled with Keith O’s nightly ratings! Get over Keith O, Righties
The thing I can not stand about Kief Uberman and Mad Cow disease, is that they must be very ANTI-WAR and will not call this Administration out! I do not care for either, but if they told the truth about how Barry Soetero has betrayed them, they would get people to watch. The WikiLeaks documents give them plenty of red meat. Both Left/Right media fail to question, WHY? We are still chasing ghosts almost 10 years later. Perpetual war machine, Hell if Kief would get mad about that I would watch…….well maybe.
Mighty Mouse
Stepfordwife, you make no sense. Speak in rational sentences, please.
Why are you here? Msnbc is great for Fox and so are you! You make the right feel so right with your lodgic. Keep it up, your ratings reflect MSLSD’s and Obama.
You make the right feel so right with your lodgic.
And indeed, feelin’ right is the name of the game.
Sorry if I interrupt the right-wing love fest on this site, Raymond. I know the right doesn’t like other points of view. They don’t like straying from the party line. No dissent. No disagreement.
But, isn’t democracy grand? All voices can be heard. Including mine. Including Keith O’s. Including MSNBC’s. Get over it…..
And, another thing … I see how you righties like to constantly call MSNBC, Ed Schultz, Keith Olbermann, and Rachel Maddow names.
I don’t know if you think you’re being funny, witty, or cute. But what it is … is puerile. And for those of you whose vocabulary is limited beyond the name-calling, that means childish.
So, grow the &@#% up.
Allright 1nancy2, this country was founded on mindless violence, remember Tom and Jerry cartoons because that is what half talk show host olbermann has reduced himself too. a cartoon. so let the mindless violence continue give olbermann a rope and let him go to work. If he does this I will watch his show that day instead of the great Bill O’Reilly.
Obama still gets great reviews from MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and CNN, and of course, the New York Times. Obama belongs to the New World Order, he keeps company with Black Panther members, Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and many others. He’s stated numerous times that he thinks the US should withdraw all armed forces from Israel. I just don’t see why any Jews would support someone who clearly is against the Jewish cause. I’ve always thought of them as God’s chosen people. Most Conservatives feel that way. Most liberals don’t, they think we should just leave Israel alone to be defeated. So, how in the world do you end up with celebs like Barbara Streisand, who, year after year, support a political candidate who literally wants to wipe the floors with the Jews?
And yes, I feel right about being right, it is the name of the game for survival.
Ray, just buy some f*cking orgonite already.
WOW !
I see “BOSS” has one person supporting his inane comments !
Try this on;
FOX = SUCCESS !
MSNBC= FAILURE !
I trust you were able to get your rent voucher in that mob in Atlanta !
You know, Rod, there’s not one right-winger who posts on this site that doesn’t break the typical stereotype of a right-wing wacko. And, that’s a shame. Conservatism was not always anti-intellectual. Conservatism once embraced intelligent debate and dialogue. Conservatism once celebrated intellect, embodied by the late, great William F. Buckley, Jr. Gone are those breed of conservatives, though. It’s really sad. Now, the right-wing is populated by vitriolic simpletons … who name-call, spout cliches and platitudes and try to pass them off as profundity. They ridicule and mock those with whom they disagree.
I wish there were thoughtful conservatives on this site who challenged my dogmas and actually made me think … rather than lmao.
