Special Comment: The Four Great Hypocrisies
by Keith Olbermann

I'm glad this is the compromise. I would have hated to have seen the capitulation.

President Obama's greatest vulnerability in this tragic debt deal is not that he might appear to have failed, or appear to have abandoned the principles demanded of any humane president (let alone of a Democrat).

Tonight, after my guests, including Congressman Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO), the head of The Congressional Black Caucus and the coiner of the memorable 'Satan sandwich' phrase, Kos his ownself, and Al Gore, have had their say, I will have mine:

2. Obama has turned his back on the Four Freedoms that FDR supported 80 years ago.
I don't think Obama even knows what those four freedoms are.
Not now.

Because "getting re-elected" was not one of them!!
