Olbermann Out on "Countdown"? New Host Named?

Eduard Khil, the perspective replacement for Olbermann, shares the political views championed by the network, and focus groups suggest that Khil articulates his views better than the blustery former ESPN sports anchor.

2 shares the political views championed by the network

How exactly are those views summed up? "Unhinged moonbattery with a side order of spittle"?

"Makes the Democratic Undergound seem like an island of mental hygiene"?

4 Is there anyone in the US that can sneer at us unblievers as he does? He is really able to convey his total disdane for anyone that does not believe in The One and the socialization of the US with just a single look. This is a great talent.

5 A Rottweiler could articulate views better than Olbermann.

6 I am afraid the Rottweiler would be far to bright for a spot in the news.

7 Hope this isn't an April Fool's joke. There are only two words I want to say to Keefums--"Adios Muchacho"
