Did you hear that!? Keith Olberman's sub on Countdown's "Oddball?"
I was washing dishes, with the kitchen TV on in the background. She was talking about a Canadian who has placed a large wager on Bu$h's re-selection. Then she said (and I put it in quotes to relay what I think I heard), "Maybe he (the wagerer) knows the CEO of Diebold, who has promised to deliver the election to George Bu$h."

... promised to deliver the election to George Bu$h. I know I heard that much. Re-focus again: promised to deliver ... Houston, we have a problem.

Jebus Christo! Everybody knows.

1. if she actually said that,
i'll have to give her another chance. have never been able to listen to her octave-to-octave delivery, but am willing to suffer through that if she delivers the goods, i.e. truth!

2. Don't worry about Diebold. I have it on good authority..........
that the Democrats have retained the more talented group of computer hackers for this upcoming election. ; ^ )

10. Hackers would probably deliver the presidency to the
Rastifarian candidate.

3. I think she said something like, "Rumors that he (the wagerer) knows the
CEO of Diebold, who has promised to deliver the election to George Bush - are not true!

But the fact that she SAID it - and her very cheeky attitude was quite surprising.

Everybody is on to them.

4. That type of commentary is why I love Countdown. They seem to be
(other than The Daily Show with Jon Stewart) the only show willing to throw those types of comments into their stories. Bashing *, bashing Faux and O'Liely.

Letterman is another show that gives Shrub some nice hard elbows to the face.
