I was this close to writing my third ever diary last night (Based on reader response, I'm batting .500) defending Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, and to a lesser extent Chris Matthews and Howard Fineman which was to have been in response to this diary,"Memo to Keith Olbermann: Go - - - - yourself" and similar sentiments expressed elsewhere. In the end I chose not to add to the glut of Meta diaries that already riddled the Daily Kos landscape. While laying in bed and checking the site on my phone, I read Keith Olbermann's justifiably disgusted response to this comment and more generally this diary on which the comment was made. Upon reading the many responses, I feel that Keith's main point has been lost on many of the readers whether they agreed or disagreed with his take on the speech. It a is point I feel needs to be highlighted even at the expense of yet another Meta diary.
