My God, how the Bush Administration must hate this man. Keith hands 'Dr' Rice her ass with this one.

[lostnotforgotten]

1. Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? - Use The Google - Priceless!

eom

[Erika]

5. We burst into laughter

Condi evedently refuses to show the intelligence or knowledge of a 5th grader. Loved it. We all should email KO.

[DKRC]

8. Love it!

:rofl: :applause: :rofl: :applause: :rofl: :applause:

[TankLV]

2. Another one hit out of the ballpark...

The repukes don't even try any more, do they!

Just make something up and believe that noone will not look it up for themselves - like has happened for over 12 years now...

Gorgonzola rice better learn that WE have finally said "ENOUGH!" "Look - the Emperor has no clothes!"

and the rest of the ENTIRE world, except for the criminal minded dwindling repuke synchopants that still refuse to see REALTITY, has finally noticed, too...

It is a different time now - tell lies like you have done, Gorgonzola, and pretty soon people stop listening, let alone believing...

[wryter2000]

30. Gorgonzola Rice?

I'm not getting anywhere near that risotto.

And anyway, I think of her more like a goat cheese camembert...you know, the kind that gets runny and stinky if you apply heat.

[TheBaldyMan]

3. recommended n/t

[lumberjack_jeff]

4. "Saddam is not Hitler, and GW is not FDR....

... or Dwight D Eisenhower, or GHW Bush (who fought in it)..."

He should have finished the sentence with "... but more like George Herbert Walker and Prescott Bush, (the presidents grandfather and great-grandfather) who financed it - sadly, not for the good guys."

[Dangerman]

72. Yeah.

George Walker and Prescott Bush SUPPORSTED Hitler. G.H.W.B. is fighting in WWII to cover their collective asses.

[Jack Rabbit]

6. Absolutely scaithing

We've seen KO angry before, but never this preplexed.

[Martin Eden]

39. It looked like KO was having fun

I can just imagine the wheels turning in his head after Rice spoke those 42 words.

The Bushists have been spinning so much bullshit for so long, this one gave KO a perfect opportunity to illustrate how wrong and ridiculous they are.

[NastyRiffraff]

7. Best...Takedown...EVER!

Wow, just WOW!

"The reporter should have asked to see them (her degrees in history) on the SPOT!" Wonderful. And recommended.

[sweetheart]

14. yes, perhaps ever

He really, really got the sweet spot on his slugger with that one.

:-) wow!

[Hepburn]

9. OMG..........

....how in the HELL did she EVER get a doctorate in poli sci? I only have a bachelors and I knew how far off she was on her "facts." Gads, maybe they should start a "no doctorate left behind" program in honor of her?

Unreal!

[Forkboy]

11. "no doctorate left behind"

LMAO

You've been watching Keith too much :)

[mazzarro]

17. That is a good one - "no doctorate left behind condoleeza" -- n/t

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

38. Have the neo-cons ever been bothered that the facts didn't fit their theories?

I don't know how smart Condi Rice is, but she is probably brighter than we give her credit for here.

The problem isn't her intelligence, it just the damned lying.

I'm so glad their lies are becoming ridiculous. That is actually a hopeful sign, because they are getting desperate. If their grip on power was still firm, they wouldn't be desperate enough to "forget" about how WWII started and how the Marshall Plan came to be.

However, I can't believe that she didn't know the facts, I believe that she was ordered to make up some argument involving Hitler vis a v Saddam and that was it. Her lies on Fox were strickly for consumption by the sycophants.


OTOH, "use the Google" was pretty damned funny.

[Contrite]

63. My brother had dinner with her at Stanford once.

He said she is the coldest human being he ever met, smart but ICE cold. She'll say ANYTHING to push the agenda. What a great Step'n Fetchit she is, after all.

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

73. Step'n Fetchit with a PhD

Colin Powell was a Step'n Fetchit with a reputation for being an honorable soldier.

BushCo used both of them like toilet paper.

Gee, cynical manipulation using people of color, what a surprise.:sarcasm:

[Teena]

76. She' s smart all right...

but can't we hope that she's too smart to lie like that? Her "facts" are always so easy to disprove, it's embarrassing. As a woman, I am deeply ashamed of her behavior.

But, hey. Republicans have been looking for someone just this slimy. I wonder when he'll announce her intention to run for President! Watch the evil-gelicals get behind her.

[SemperEadem]

52. She counts on the fact that many of the people who watch those shows

1. don't know their history
2. are too lazy to turn off the tv and research what actually went on
3. believe that anything this administration says will be echoed by those who mainline the fear she and others in said administration push.
4. knows that no one on FoxNoise is going to challenge anything she says because they've got an edict from that derelict aussie threatening their jobs if they do so.

If she didn't believe any of the above, she would not boldly advance lies the way she does.

[Sherman A1]

10. Priceless!!!

absolutely PRICELESS!!!! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Forkboy]

12. Remind me to NEVER get on this man's bad side.

One of the things I regret about not having cable is missing his show (and Ed,Edd and Eddy,but that's a different story).

"YOUR office!"

God,Republicans are fucking stupid.

[sweetheart]

13. Dr. Rice is a disgrace

Its tragic that such stupid fools parade around for the world to see
how stupid the US has become, systemically base and ignorant,
crude and rude.

Dr. Rice belongs in a prison cell along with her moral equal, osama.

Boy, that really pisses me off that that stupid vich said that, what
outrageous revisionism from the thievin' stupid jesus party.

[burf]

20. Wasn't she the provost

at Stanford? What does that say about them?

[sweetheart]

21. What does it say about degeneration

that truth is so disrespected by the state casually
and heinously undermining all credibility of the
constitutional state and all its laws... all of it
is not credible if the truth is not adjudicated in
the public common.

It says she's on message with those straussian sickos
in republicana who say whatever they want, bullshit
whatever, and 'create reality' for us.

[ProudDad]

58. And on the board of directors of Chevron

She has an oil tanker named after her.

No conflict of interest there :sarcasm:

[monmouth]

15. Rice had to be infuriated... Gawd it was wonderful...Go Keith!!

[bluerum]

16. Slap! Whack! Slap slap! Talk about fried Rice. O punches her lites out. eom

[Klukie]

18. It is about time old Condi...

was taken down. Loved it!

[Felinity]

19. It's as if a dream came true for me K&R

A SuperKeith Public smackdown of Auntie Thomasina. If only he had mentioned the pitfalls of affirmative action. The Office of Secretary of State has become a throwaway position, first a soldier with a distorted sense of loyalty--and not to the constitution, then an intellectual lightweight with expensive taste in shoes. I don't think Cheney ever wanted anyone strong over there.

(Don't get me wrong, I believe in affirmative action, just not for world leaders; I prefer they pass a 12th grade history test)

[90-percent]

22. KO vs. Kindasleezy:

Keith knocked it out of the park and into a ball park in another state!

What a magnificent piece of PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISM!!!! Fact checking! WHAT A CONCEPT!

That our Secretary of State can un-self consciously spew such claptrap IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE WORLD is beyond the fringes of audience comprehension.

Keith absolutely exposes these treacherous cretins for what they really are. Lying ignorant intellectually lazy bastards, the lot of them.

This expose should be on the front page of all American MSM today, Tuesday, February 27, 2007.

-85% Jimmy

[geardaddy]

34. Throwaway position.

You aren't kidding. Jeez, she's the female version of Von Ribbentrop.

[Felinity]

53. You made me look that up!

Typo edit.


Not a very complimentary comparison for Sleeza, how could you be so unfeeling? Especially today, when I understand she pitched some real woo to the Senate about how there hasn't been widespread abuse of spending in Iraq Link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=302040&mesg_id=302040.

Perhaps she could enlighten us by comparing the current situation to the Marshall Plan performance. Oh, wait, she hasn't heard of the Marshall plan.

[agtcovert]

23. I wish more of the news was like this.

...it would be bearable to watch it.

:rofl:

[KoKo]

24. Thanks for posting this...Missed his Truth Telling last night...Amazing..

And we want to let Fox News host our Dem Debates in Nevada, after our ignorant SOS chooses Fox and their audience to spew her illiteracy about history. Imagine...

[fryguy]

25. "use The Google...." - n/t

[The Wizard]

26. And there's always this gem

Two months after dignitaries were moved to ships because of an Al Qaeda threat to fly planes into buildings at the G8 summit, Condi said no one could have imagined anyone would us planes as missiles and fly them into buildings. And she said it under oath. Lock up her ass in solitary until she gets her mind right.

[colorado_ufo]

59. Smoking gun, mushroom cloud, yadda yadda yadda.

[dae]

27. Olbermann is always great and Condi's KO has been

long over due. Thank you Keith, it was worth the wait.

[wryter2000]

28. "Use the Google!"

Awesome! What a masterful blend of outrage, humor, and...what do you call them?...oh, yeah!...facts!

:bounce:

[IWantAChange]

29. So that leaves WHO as the 'smart one' in this Administration??

Damn - I forgot - BARNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[waiting for hope]

31. KindaSleazy (Thanks! 90-percent)

makes me ashamed to be a woman sometimes, she's an embarrassment to all of our gender. We can look up to Nancy Pelosi with awe and adulation that she is the first woman as Speaker but KindaSleazy has tarnished Madeleine Albright's legacy. What a whore, she's been pimping so long now for the Bush Cabal, she's lost her soul if she ever had one to begin with.

[Hardrada]

56. Madeleine Albright sucked too.

Thinking the Iraq sanctions that killed hundreds of thousands were just fine!.

Both female von Ribbentrops.

[Fresh_Start]

32. I'm in minority

I wish KO had concisely responded to Condi's outrageous remark by answering simply

Unfortunately our SOS does not realize that Congress did a new authorization after Hitler was defeated to deal with the issues of post-conflict WWII. That authorization was the Marshall Doctrine which was approved in 1945. Condi, try the googles before you embarrass the country next time.

The reason is because we need to start changing the worldview of the other hand of America. They need to realize that their 'all-knowing administration' is making shit up. The first 3/4 of his comment were peripheral to the main point which was that Congress appropriately controls the agenda of the people.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

44. our sexstate also doesn't know that we did not

capture or overthrow Hitler. The Russians were coming (literally), and he committed suicide.

She is incompetant, misinformed, and worse.

[krispos42]

46. Also, the Marshall Plan didn't involve a neocon paradise

And lots of cost-plus contracts and unmonitored, unaccountable contractors

[ihelpu2see]

33. AWESOME!!! I have always wondered which Cracker Jack Box Rice

got her PhD from???

[LibDemAlways]

35. Keith is the only truthteller in the corporate tv news business, although

the suits make sure he covers plenty of infotainment as well. It must pain him to utter the words "Anna Nicole." Nevertheless, he obviously puts a great deal of thought and research into his commentaries because he wants to get them right, and also because he knows people will hear that kind of brutal honesty about the Bush Crime Family nowhere else on tv. He's a national treasure.

[Cabcere]

36. That was hot.

I've seen KO pissed off before; I've seen him outraged at the depths of stupidity to which this administration is willing to plunge, but I don't think I've ever seen him this flat-out disgusted. Damn. :loveya:

[Felix Mala]

37. Condiscendra is supposed to go to Congress for help today? After

she makes these comments? I hope they laugh at her.

[tgnyc]

40. Oh, Snap! A Facial!

[smoogatz]

41. Damn he's good.

Yowzers.

[pdxmike]

42. one other thing that Rice screwed up on

We didn't "overthrow" Hitler. The sucker capped himself.

[SeanQ]

43. Wow!! n/t

[Demeter]

45. MY LORD! Hell with Obama--I'm Going With Keith!

That was better than any Academy Award could ever hope to be.

[BlueGirlRedState]

47. Heard this on podcast, video is even better

I listened to this as I drove to work, I couldn't wait to see the video. Love it, love it, love it.
K & R!

[Ganja Ninja]

48. They make it so easy for KO and ...

it really exposes the rest of the media for the lazy, slack jawed, boot licker's they are.

[Hardrada]

57. Blow dry airheads filling time with self-important blather between

the many commercials.

[Nimrod2005]

49. k

[Nabia2004]

50. I need a download link - must burn on DVD, mail to wingnuts

Thanks.

[xxqqqzme]

51. pretzeldent's life anbition was to be

baseball commissioner - kindasleazy's - NFL.........it is tragic they did not pursue those goals. The entire world would be so much more stable.




She has a PhD and doesn't know about The Marshall Plan? - I learned about that in grade school.

Get her credentials indeed.

[Tekla West]

54. I think she knows

She also knows her supporters believe in imaginary beings, creationism and the idea that the 2000 election was all above board. What she knows is that those fools will believe anything, and do.

[LosinIt]

78. Geez, you made me spit tea all over the keyboard

and the monitor. Imaginary beings, my Lord!

tee hee

and welcome to DU!!

[MasonJar]

55. Way to go, Keith. You are the Top!

[colorado_ufo]

60. What an AWESOME, no-holds-barred, commentary!

The Sec of State got bitch-slapped.

[mainer]

61. My friend the Sovietologist says Rice is a moron

And he says that everyone in her so-called "field of expertise" agrees she doesn't know squat. That's based on the papers she's written about Russia.

[onehandle]

64. I don't get why he and DU are being so critical.

She's just appealing to Fox's base. People who aren't as smart as a 5th grader.

[biggles1]

65. POW! That one's outta here....! Apart from her embarassing lack

of historical knowledge, Rice is also a classic defaulter of 'Godwin's Law' (albeit a televised example). When all else fails in an argument, dredge up a comparison with Hitler/ Nazism. Godwin suggests that this signals DEFEAT in the argument!

[StrictlyRockers]

66. Damn, he totally nailed her! He just tore her a new one.

Rice looks dumb as rice pudding right now.

[Danger Mouse]

67. She didn't say that because she's stupid, Keith. She lied. As usual.

That being said, he really torpedoed her, and it was beautiful to watch.

[emlev]

68. Gandhi Not Condi! (Link for buttons, bumperstickers, T shirts)

[DAMANgoldberg]

69. Two Words...

Just Damn!

[fearnobush]

70. Keith Rocks.

.

[kaygore]

71. The Republicans just count on their constituents to be dumb as dirt

[bif]

74. Keith is in rare form on this one!

[Old Smokey]

75. Great Special Comment

I was laughing my ass off last night. I love the way he calls them on shit.

Are you smarter than a fifth grader?

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::ro:ro:r:rofl::

[livingonearth]

77. Keith is great!

His brilliance is exactly why Limbaugh, Beck and the rest don't ever dare to bring him up or refute what he says. They can't compete and they know it. They would rather stay silent when it comes to Keith. They fear him.

[Hav]

79. .

Is that the new talking point? I bet it will be repeated again and again by some stupid Repubs.

[worldgonekrazy]

80. !

I know I'm Johnny Come Lately to this thread, but that was a FANTASTIC rant! Olbermann exposes Condi for exactly what she is: not very smart. How did this woman get so far in life? It boggles the mind!
