The biggest flip-flopping asswipe of them all is that intolerable Keith Olbermann.

Olbermann Mocks Limbaugh But CNN’s Brown
Defends Rush’s Rights

Two nights after lamenting how the views of the Dixie Chicks, Al Franken and Janeane Garofalo were supposedly suppressed, as “2003 was not the first time dissent, the American virtue, the unique right of us Americans, suddenly became an ugly word,” instead on championing Rush Limbaugh’s free speech rights and denouncing any idea of censoring him by removing him from ESPN, MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann criticized Limbaugh’s opinion of media coverage of an NFL player and presciently predicted: “He’s gonna be fired.”

Far from bemoaning the anti-Limbaugh media herd mentality, on his 8pm EDT Countdown show Olbermann mocked Limbaugh: “The only question is will he be fired because he sees life as a conspiracy against white people or because he doesn’t know enough about football to understand that Donovan McNabb has led his otherwise lackluster team to the penultimate football game two years in a row.”

MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann managed to link the supposed suppression of dissent by the Dixie Chicks, Al Franken and Janeane Garofalo with Kazan as he maintained that “2003 was not the first time dissent, the American virtue, the unique right of us Americans, suddenly became an ugly word.” Olbermann insisted that “when we talk about the death of Elia Kazan, overshadowing his work was the time he unreluctantly and unremorsefully identified eight of his personal friends as communists during his testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee.”

Notice how he was so quick to defend the Chicks and others but when Rush says something he doesnt like, he doenst defend it.

Now THAT is a liberal.
