Keith Olbermann Rips GOP and Blue Dog Dems on Health Care

Keith Olbermann, in his best Special Comment in quite some time, warns Republicans and Blue Dog Democrats on health care reform.

Says Olbermann: "We do not need to call the Democrats holding this up Blue Dogs. That one word, Dogs, is perfectly sufficient...I warn you all. You were not elected to create a Democratic majority. You were elected to restore this country. You were not elected to serve the corporations and trusts who the government has enabled for these last eight years. You were elected to serve the people. And if you fail to pass or support this legislation, the full wrath of the progressive and the moderate movements in this country will come down on your heads...If you will behave as if you are Republicans, the prostitutes of our system, you will be judged as such. And you will lose not merely our respect, you will lose your jobs.

Olbermann: Obama 'Goddamned Wrong' on 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'

Keith Olbermann discusses "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" and wonders why Obama continues to hesitate in halting gay discharges. He talks to Dan Savage, who asks, if 75% of the American public are sold on repealing DADT, how many more "retrograde bigots" need to change their minds before he does something?

On that note, First Lt. Dan Choi was stripped of his officer's commission yesterday at a hearing as was expected and will be discharged. Alison Stewart covered it on The Rachel Maddow Show. 

Will "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" become as big a stain on Obama's legacy as it is on Clinton's? I suppose it depends on how many more lives he ruins because of it.
