I knew there was a reason I loved this guy...

Keith Olbermann and I think alike, except his vocabulary is more impressive. I love a man with a big vocabulary. He may be more eloquent, but Keith mirrored what I said in the post below about Bush’s speech last night. Actually, the fact that he said almost the exact same thing in many instances makes me uncomfortable. It means I’m not off the mark with this uneasy feeling of dread. I think there are events of catastrophic proportions in our near future.

Keith: Only this President could extol the "thoughtful recommendations of the Iraq Study Group," and then take its most far-sighted recommendation — "engage Syria and Iran" - and transform it into "threaten Syria and Iran" — when Al-Qaeda would like nothing better than for us to threaten Syria, and when President Ahmmadinejad would like nothing better than to be threatened by us.

And to Iran and Syria — and, yes, also to the insurgents in Iraq — we must look like a country, run by the equivalent of the drunken pest, who gets battered to the floor of the saloon by one punch, then staggers to his feet, and shouts at the other guy's friends, "ok, which one of you is next?"
