Olbermann, one of many Obama Groupies Who “Cannot Grasp Nuances of Sarcasm”

August 31, 2009 by B. Daniel Blatt

As per my last post, seems the hatred coming from the left is so close to the mainstream that it oozes from the website of the leader of the Democratic Party.  Now, someone blogging there is calling us “heirs of bin Laden” for opposing the President’s health care plan.

Jim Hoft links to a screed there, obviously by someone like Keith Olbermann, who took seriously this obviously sarcastic comment of a participant at a town hall for U.S. Representative Wally Herger  in Redding, California:

I have been known to say things that are fishy. I’ve even been known to attend Redding Tea Party dot com protests. And I want to say that I’m a proud right wing terrorist. (applause) I didn’t come prepared with a lot of notes tonight; I left them, actually, at home while I was looking for my birth certificate.

Burt Stead, the guy who uttered those words, admitted that with he did so in order to “poke fun” at things Obama Obama Administration officials have said and done.

But a left-winger blogging on the President’s behalf, missed the humor, reading Republican reaction as

Republican Representatives, Senators, GOP Party Leader, GOP Political Machine top personnel (e.g., Gingritch), etc etc etc — they’re ALL every one of them applauding and encouraging their zealot-horde by merrily referring to them as “Proud Right-Wing Terrorists”. Google it – I’m not pulling your leg.

No, this guy’s not pulling our leg, but he is taking himself far too seriously.  A clever Republican was having a bit of fun.  And he and his counterparts on the left, so eager to demonize us, saw this “wing-nut” defining himself (with a straight face) exactly as they see us (with their faces reddening).

Please note that I changed the title to eliminate a confusing double negative.

    Liberals in their bubble. They just don’t get it. And yes, this is proof that they have no sense of humor whatsoever!!!

    Again, you have to be stunned, simply stunned that this is the best they can come up with.

    Imagine you are Keith Olbermann for a moment (bear with me, it’s just a moment) and you have a brilliant idea for improving the nation’s health, fortunes, and even stature with other “industrialized nations.” And, as a bonus, this idea-made-flesh would guarantee your favored political party would stride the American scene like a colossus for a generation.

    Would you, Mr. Olbermann, take every opportunity to let folks know the exciting details of your scheme? Or would you focus like a laser on the intentional misreading of a lone-citizen’s joke?

    Doesn’t the fact that he opted for the latter tell you everything you need to know?

    Best wishes,

    Keep in mind that “sarcasm” or “I was just joking” is the excuse that liberals use when they accidentally let their mask drop and show their inherent racist/misogynist/anti-American views.

    In short, to them, sarcasm is never deliberate; it’s merely making the mistake of letting your true views be known in public. Since THEY are racists and misogynists, they assume everyone else is as well.

    Last time I looked Olbermann was attracting less than half the people who watched a live home baseball game to his show. Pretty lame.

    Keith needs to show his “Ivy League” diploma again. That will bring up the ratings. Clop, clop, moo, moo.
