Nafta???

Because Keith Olbermann is foaming at the mouth over this story (I turned him off when I heard
his 5 stories were going to be anti-Hillary)

What I read earlier today clearly stated that it was not confirmed.
Have any of you heard anything different??

1. someone from the obama camp met with a canadian official

but the canadian official said yesterday "SOMEONE" from the Hillary camp called him and said take the NAFTA with a grain of salt. Like I said, who called, and what proof? There were none, pure lies.

2. Then why is Olbermann 'reporting' it?

3. Because he doesn't care as long as it bashes Hillary. Obama's guy still met with them.

That isn't in dispute. Some unknown person supposedly called someone else. Nothing but more smears. They want to smear her all they can. I'm not surprised everything is Hillary's fault even when their guy admits doing it (meeting with them).

4. I didn't watch Olbermann - did he at least acknowledge that Obama did it too?

What an ass!

5. I didn't watch him either.

The only thing that I can figure out is that there is a specific name of Obama's economist who has admitted meeting with the Canadian at the consulate in Chicago. The Obama camp had to own up to this because of what the Canadian guy said.

Now this other thing concerning the Clintons that has been floating about has no specific names from the Clinton camp attached; and you can't really pin down a source for the story. Aren't you suppose to have at least two sources for good Journalism? To know that it's not hear-say or a deliberately planted smear?

Also. it seems that Keith got his information from bloggers here at DU.

7. There is a memo of the BO meeting - he lied about it. No proof on Hill - she sent

someone? She certainly didn't lie about it.

9. Hillary has challenged someone/anyone who say

who talked with the Canadians. She says it did not happen.

Pretty sure KO won't report that however. He is a lying juvenile wanker.

8. No one watches Olbermann anymore, anyway.

Except for Obama supporters. He lost half of his audience with his constant bashing of Hillary.

15. I heard he lost a great majority of his audience and

the fact is CNN is now #1 at 8pm, read that somewhere....

I hope he loses his entire audience. He's turned into a raving lunatic, GE must have thrown tons of money at him or he really is as insane as Matthews. Either way, Im saddened by it, but MSNBC will never see this TV again. Now I see Keith's real colors.

He's nothing but a hack and a GE tool.

Where'd he get this BS story? Obamababies?

16. Looks like the DU O people sent him this story, or at least encouraged it mightily.

I turned him off since January, ever since NH primary. No credibility for me anymore.

I've also begun to watch and get a more balanced and objective discussion on, of all places, FOX News. No, seriously. Not regularly - just the increasingly rare times I turn on the TV and watch something else besides C-SPAN and Bill Moyers for political discussion. They don't have the O slant all the others have now. Amazing, but true!

The world's upside down now!

14. obama plays dirty tricks in addition to being a smooth operator and claiming the high road.

his deceptive ways to get to the presidency remind me of george bush's deceptive claims to get to iraq.

and what is pathetic is how keith olberman who was so to the point in being enraged against GWB is now using his platform to turn his rage against hillary clinton while giving the deceiving BO a pass.

How can he be so blind?!
