Olbermann blog now gives it to kerry

Pretty funny and he penalized Bush after the fact due to "factual inconsistencies".

1. heh heh

The point awarded to Mr. Bush in the thirteenth round is hereby withdrawn and awarded to Mr. Kerry, for the latter's enterprising hoisting of his opponent on said opponent's own petard.

2. LOL! I love Olbermann...

Mr. Bush is also penalized three points for a truth foul.
Mr. Bush is further penalized two points for getting snarky while in the act of being factually incorrect.

The thirteenth round, originally scored 2-0 for Mr. Bush, now reverts to a 1-1 draw, and the rounds awarded total now changes from 12 Kerry, 4 Bush, 3 Drawn, to 12 Kerry, 3 Bush, 4 Drawn.

The final points scoring is now adjusted from Kerry 15, Bush 12, to Kerry 16, Bush 6. The Scorer thus designates the outcome as a Kerry victory outside the margin for statistical error.

The scorer's table reproaches President Bush for not knowing when he has wood.

So Kerry hoisted Dub upon his own petard, huh? Wonder if that was a WOODEN-SHAFTED petard?:eyes:

7. I bet he did this all on purpose...

I hope nobody sent an email to him that was too nasty. Mike Malloy kind of blasted him for his earlier judgement.

"... The point awarded to Mr. Bush in the thirteenth round is hereby withdrawn and awarded to Mr. Kerry, for the latter's enterprising hoisting of his opponent on said opponent's own petard."

PERFECT description of Bush on Olbermann's part. Dumbya is always trying to make a funny, and half the time he's putting his foot in deep doody or LYING HIS ASS OFF while doing it.

9. Olbermann's Best Line...

"The final points scoring is now adjusted from Kerry 15, Bush 12, to Kerry 16, Bush 6. The Scorer thus designates the outcome as a Kerry victory outside the margin for statistical error.

The scorer's table reproaches President Bush for not knowing when he has wood."

Yeah, I'll bet he fakes wood, too.
