KOEB 10/11/10: National Coming Out Day Edition

[SeattleGirl]

And Keith is wearing a tux!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

1. I'm wearing my formal housecoat.

:hi:

[RavensChick]

3. Hi, Pats!!

Good to see you!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

5. You, too!

:toast:

[SeattleGirl]

11. Hi Patsy! I'm wearing my formal "fuddies".

Yoga pants and a sports top. B-) :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

64. That would be

you fuddy duddies then? :)

[SeattleGirl]

67. That would be exactly that!

My fuddy duddies!

[Botany]

13. I'm wearing my crotchless t-shirt

WTF is wrong w/ these people?

Speaking all that crap about gays but then saying I'm not homophobic.

BTW being a straight guy I have found an easy way to "avoid the gay" .... I don't have sex
w/ men but i do have a 3 really good gay / lesbian friends and lots of gay-bors.

[SeattleGirl]

22. Hi Bot!

A crotchless t-shirt? :rofl:

Do you also have collarless underwear? (Never mind, don't answer that!)

[Botany]

25. I have my "date" underwear and my work underwear .....

..... it has all faded to a yellow grey.

[RavensChick]

63. Uh, ew!

Yes, please don't let him answer that, LOL!!

[Patsy Stone]

24. This post

is useless without pictures.

:hi:

That man is an idiot. Same goes for all those people listening to him.

[RavensChick]

30. Hi, Bot!

I don't know but obviously he's confused (he looks it).

I had 2 older brothers who were gay, I worked with gays for years, I went to school with gays, and my new friend in Atlanta has a daughter who's a lesbian, so I'm like, who the fuck cares? We're human and we should learn to be diverse and at the very least respect each other. But repukes and teabaggers and ordinary nutjobs are gonna have their say no matter what.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

54. Crotchless T-SHIRT!!!

Shhh! Don't talk like that, I'm in a freaky kind of mood tonight.:silly: :hi:

[RavensChick]

66. All Keith has to do is wear that one time,

and all of us will be on cloud nine for a MONTH!!

[CBHagman]

123. No housecoats for me.

Levis and this:

[Patsy Stone]

124. No

Do you really own that? LOL

[CBHagman]

125. Oh, yeah, I love CafePress.

And BBC TV shows.

[RavensChick]

2. Where's he going?

Hi, SG!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

14. Hi RC!

:hi:

[RavensChick]

34. How are you?

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

35. I'm good! How're you doing?

[RavensChick]

43. Pretty good.

I've been relaxing for most of the weekend so I'm getting ready to deal with the grind when I go back to work tomorrow.

[SeattleGirl]

48. Glad you had a relaxing weekend!

So did I. It was nice!

[Patsy Stone]

4. Orthodox Jews

dissing a minority. Nice.

[RavensChick]

7. Interesting.

If he wins I will weep for all of New York state.

[SharonRB]

17. Hey!

You can see right where we were standing.

[Patsy Stone]

27. Behind Josh Marshall?

Cool.

[SharonRB]

29. And behind Keith

Right where we took our pictures from.

[Patsy Stone]

32. Over his shoulder

through the window? I never noticed the cabs before.

[SharonRB]

38. Yes.

[SharonRB]

41. Nancy will be on Beck's show tomorrow, but

Glenn won't be there. Judge Napolitano is subbing and she'll be on the whole hour.

[RavensChick]

47. I wish her well,

but she may want to take a shower after leaving that place! Whether Lonesome Rhodes is there or not it's still a shit house!

[SharonRB]

84. She won't be there

She does her appearances from her studio here.

[RavensChick]

88. Good.

I would feel bad if she had to be in that place. Ah, the love of technology!

[SeattleGirl]

95. I got to see her studio when I was in Detroit.

There was still working going on at the time, but it's pretty cool! Unfortunately, Nancy wasn't there, so Sharon couldn't introduce me to her. Hopefully next time.

[rocktivity]

6. One tuxedo kitteh coming right up!

:headbang:
rocktivity

[RavensChick]

9. Hi, Rock!

Very handsome kitty!

:hi:

[ralps]

18. Hi rocktivity! Awww Cute Kitteh!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

23. Hi rock!

Cute kitteh! :hi:

[GigiMommy]

73. Hi Rocktivity!!!

Awwwwwwwww!!!:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SharonRB]

8. Oy!

What's with all the rebbes? And why is Keith all dressed up?

[Patsy Stone]

12. That's "homophobic hateful rebbes" to you

:eyes:

:hi:

[SharonRB]

19. Crazy

Even my mother supported gay marriage.

[RavensChick]

16. Hi, Sharon!

Trust me, I feel just as bad as you do.

I asked the same thing earlier so I think he's going to a banquet or something after the show.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

26. Hi Sharon!

Rebbes?

:hi:

[SharonRB]

109. Yeah

That's how the ultra orthodox rabbis are often referred to.

[SeattleGirl]

115. Thanks!

[Patsy Stone]

10. Pictures!

http://www.mobypicture.com/user/KeithOlbermann/view/7725941/sizes/full (more sizes)

[SeattleGirl]

28. Sweet!

[RavensChick]

39. Dayum!!!

I'm drooling (on Berry's behalf until she arrives)!!

:evilgrin:

[ralps]

15. Hi SeattleGirl!!!! Hi Everyone! No Carl! God doesn't hate Fags! God hates Figs!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/froboy/3343598218/

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :grr:

[RavensChick]

21. Hi, Ralps!

The man is an idiot!

:hi:

[ralps]

31. Hi RavensChick! Yep!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

33. He also hates fangs.

At least according to True Blood. :)

[Botany]

20. Maybe Keith is gonna "come out" tonight and the broadcast .......

.... belting out some show tunes.

[Botany]

36. The Ohio idiot dressed as Waffen SS

Waffen SS @ work in Warsaw, Poland

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/f/fd/20080217015610!Stroop_Report_-_Warsaw_Ghetto_Uprising_09.jpg

Their homes burned these people shipped to camps .... the women and children gassed right off ... the men worked to death as slave
laborers. And now the Ohio idiot is going for an "out of context" try.

[Patsy Stone]

37. I really have to give you credit for this one.

You may have finally out-Florida'd Florida.

[SeattleGirl]

40. The man is obviously shameless.

And sickening.

[SharonRB]

42. Award?

What award?

[elleng]

46. Ditto, same question.

[RavensChick]

53. Hi, Ellen!!

Glad to see another Marylander with us tonight! How are you?

:hi:

[elleng]

72. Hi, Chick! Fine!

:hi:

[RavensChick]

83. Glad to hear it!

Going to the Stewart/Colbert rally later on this month? I'm gonna try to go since I missed the One Nation rally.

[SeattleGirl]

56. Hi elleng!

Nice to see you again in the clubhouse! :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

87. Hi, ellen!

Nice to see you again. :hi:

[GigiMommy]

96. Hi Elleng!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Patsy Stone]

57. Google turned up nothing.

Was he just being snarky?

[Patsy Stone]

59. So, does that mean he's getting an award

or presenting an award? I'm so confused. :)

[RavensChick]

75. He's getting an award

but we still don't know for what. It doesn't matter because for all his hard work he deserves it!

Congratulations, Keith! (please tell us what award it is)

:applause:

[RavensChick]

68. He still hasn't said what award

he's getting. Guess we'll have to find out later unless someone posts a link or something.

[Patsy Stone]

70. Gene just said "Murrow"

But Google was little to no help with just the words "Keith Olbermann" and "award".

[SeattleGirl]

74. KO won for writing for "A Baseball Fan Named Marie"

[Patsy Stone]

77. That was announced in June

but the ceremony is today? That's a long time to wait!

[SeattleGirl]

82. I remember that now.

No idea why it took so long for the ceremony though.

[Patsy Stone]

91. Very odd... n/t

[RavensChick]

93. Oh, okay.

Well, at least that explains the tux. It'll be posted somewhere tomorrow so we'll know for sure.

[rocktivity]

44. Of COURSE the rest of the media is ignoring the US Chamber of Commerce story

They're jonesing for some of those foreign dollars in the form of ad revenues!

:eyes:
rocktivity

[CBHagman]

98. And the Weymouth-Brauchli Washington Post...

...has been falling all over itself to cover the tea party movement. The inanity (e.g., Real Housewives of D.C.) and insanity (teabaggers) surely must have Katharine Graham turning in her crypt.

[Patsy Stone]

103. That poor paper

RIP.

And what the hell happened to Tom Shales? He's lost his ever lovin' mind recently.

:hi:

[RavensChick]

108. That man has never been right!

He's just as delusional as the day is long. Besides, Keith raked him pretty good in Worst Persons twice in the last few months, so when Shales finally wises up and retires he certainly won't be missed by me or anyone else!

[Patsy Stone]

110. Back in the day

way back in the 80s, I enjoyed him very much. Sad when that happens.

[CBHagman]

117. Actually, I have to defend poor Tom.

He was on the mark about the crappy state of television. The History Channel showing Ice Road Truckers? Lisa De Moraes is too self-consciously snarky for me, and while Hank Stuever can be funny, he's so into the snotty postmodern too-cool-to-care thing that he sacrifices depth and substance in favor of wisecracks. Shales, a fan of Helen Mirren and Jack Paar and John Thaw, at least has taste. And I'll forever have a soft spot for T.S. as he declared, during an NPR review of the film Far and Away, that "even Mother Teresa would stand up and boo." :rofl:

[RavensChick]

104. Hi, CB!

You got that right. Btw, I saw the finale of the RHODC, and I can sum it up this way:

:boring: :boring: :boring: :boring:

[CBHagman]

121. Hiya!

:hi:

Oh, between what so-called reality TV has done with my beloved D.C. and New Jersey, I'm in a perpetual state of mourning for the national IQ. Bring back The Honeymooners. Hell, bring back My Mother the Car. We can't be this hard up for entertainment...can we?

[GigiMommy]

113. Hi CB!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[CBHagman]

122. Hi, GM!

:hi:

[Botany]

45. fuck you Karl

Open and honest elections?



250,000 african americans were removed from voting in Cuyahoga County, Ohio (Cleveland) in 2004 ....
more than double bush's margin of victory

Karl Rove had lists of disenfranchised voters in his office in the White House.

The man should be in jail.

[RavensChick]

60. No solitary confinement for him!

Put his ass in general population and let's see how long he lasts before he hangs himself!

[SeattleGirl]

62. I just hope someone makes him their prison beyotch first.

[RavensChick]

97. That would be total justice for all of us!

[SeattleGirl]

101. Oh yeah!

[Patsy Stone]

61. What you said!

:puke:

[GigiMommy]

85. Hi Patsy!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

49. Hi Everybody!!!

My, Keith looks cute tonight.:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

51. Hi Gigi and Miss Cassie! Hugs!

He does look great in that tux, doesn't he? :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

58. Mmmmm! Mmmmmmmm!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[RavensChick]

55. Hi, Gigi!!

Hon, he looks so fine I can't stand it!!! And I'm all the way down here near DC. I would hop on the train and head up there but I'm lazy tonight!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

65. Hey Raven!!!

I'm farther away and I would hop on a train but I gotta put Cassie and Freckles to bed. Looks like you got a really good team this year. I hope Big Ben has his act together and keep the winning going. Wouldn't you know Charlie Batch would be good AFTER The Lions!:hi:

[RavensChick]

112. Yes, so far so good.

We have the Patriots this coming Sunday so I'm pretty much expecting a nail biter.

[ralps]

50. Here's the Think progress link

[SeattleGirl]

69. Whoa, Keith is getting the Murrow award?

:wow:

Congratulations to him! :bounce: :bounce:

It's for writing: "A Baseball Fan Named Marie", the piece he did after his mom died.

[GigiMommy]

76. Is it just me or are people in politics getting

dumber and dumber each day.

[SeattleGirl]

79. It's not just you, Gigi.

And not only dumber, but nuttier too.

[Patsy Stone]

86. I'm not sure

there weren't always this many dumb people in politics, but they are certainly getting more news coverage, for sure.

:hi:, GG!

[RavensChick]

118. The dumber they get,

the longer we're gonna suffer.

[ralps]

78. Well I guess He and/or NBC/MSNBC got an Edward R Murrow award

http://www.rtdna.org/pages/media_items/2010-national-edward-r.-murrow-award-winners1961.php?g=67?id=1961

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[RavensChick]

119. Thanks, Ralps!

Now we know why he's all gussied up! Kudos to Keith for all his hard work and his beautiful tribute to his mom!!!!!!!

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

[SharonRB]

81. This man is an IdIott!

[GigiMommy]

89. Hi Sharon!!!

I'll try to catch Nancy but I have a reaction when even getting close to Glenn Beck on the radio.:hi:

[Berry Cool]

92. Keith's finally marrying me. What can I say??

:hi: :loveya: Oh, of course you all know it's not so--he's just going to pick up his Edward R. Murrow Award. *sigh* Anyway, I thought I'd stop by anyway and......ahhhhhhhhh *KLUNKKKKKKK*

[Patsy Stone]

94. Hey!

I feel like I haven't seen you in a million years.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

99. Hi Berry!

Need the smelling salts? :-) :hi:

[GigiMommy]

107. BERRY! BERRY! BERRY!

WAKE UP!!! Get ready, he might need a date!:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[RavensChick]

120. I was drooling for you earlier.

Berry? Berry? You okay? I hope you are. I'll sleep real good tonight after seeing him looking so damn sexy!

Well, the Real Housewives of Atlanta is on so good night and good luck everyone!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

******************

BTW Gene .... he wasn't dressing just as a nazi but as Waffin SS

[GigiMommy]

105. You've got to be kidding.

Is that yet another politician?

[Botany]

111. The national republican women's federation meet up

http://www2.counton2.com/news/2010/sep/15/4/photos-southern-experience-gop-womens-meeting-caus-ar-830655/

they had an "old south" themed party

[Botany]

[ralps]

100. Today's worst person in the world is Mike Rosen of the Denver Post

For saying a plane should be hijacked & flown into the Islamic Center in New York City! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :wow: :wtf:

[SeattleGirl]
