Keith Olbermann: Spin Doctor of the Highest Order
Keith Olbermann is saying we all misunderstood Senator Kerry's comments yesterday. From the Countdown Preview e-mail I just received:
The Senator, in essence, called Mr. Bush stupid. The context was unmistakable: Texas, the state of denial, stuck in Iraq. No interpretation required.That's a stretch. These Bush 'minions' are calling for Kerry to apologize:
And Mr. Bush and his minions responded, by appearing to be too stupid to realize that they had been called stupid.
Rep. Harold Ford
"He needs to apologize to our troops"
Sen. Hillary Clinton
“What Sen. Kerry said was inappropriate”
Gov. Janet Napolitano
“It's just wrong"
U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez
“I think his comments were inappropriate”
New Jersey Senate President Richard Codey
“I think it's offensive”
Senate candidate Jon Tester
“Senator Kerry's remarks were poorly worded and just plain stupid”
North Carolina State Democratic Party chairman Jerry Meek
“John Kerry's botched joke was wrong and he should apologize”
Congressional candidate Bruce Braley
"I believe that Senator Kerry's brief statement was inappropriate”
Congressional candidate John Pavich
“I believe he should apologize to the brave men and women in service.”
