Keith Olbermann's Countdown-Bush Owes Us An Apology

I've been mulling some comments over for several weeks now, but I will refrain for a few more days. I would like them to be fully formed before I put them to words. For now, I will let Mr. Olbermann speak (below is a link to the video feed of the episode of Countdown that segansca was referring to):

It may be that he was misquoted or he mispoke. I've been looking for news articles that go into more depth about what Senator Kerry actually said. The web seems to be kind of silent on the more complete picture that Keith Olberman put in his clip. That was interesting.

It has stirred up some commentary from people who agree with the abbreviated clip [John Kerry was right Mr. Bush]. I suppose that can be written off as pondering by the ignorant.

I do note that senator's statement doesn't make much sense. President Bush has a bachelor's degree in history from Yale and an MBA from Harvard. He is an educated person. Reports from people who've met him think that he is smart. I'd doubt that it's possible to make it the presidency without being pretty sharp. He is a bad public speaker and he's made some dumb moves.

So Senator Kerry's joke doesn't make much sense, but I guess smart people can say dumb things.
