(parenthetical aside)

If you have eight minutes to waste, I think you should waste it on this.


...and send the link to others.

Please.

link, to an MSNBC clip, Keith Olbermann and his commentary on 9/11 from ground zero, 5 years on.

It's a shame really; every now and then I used to mock Olbermann, because he used to do the sports over on ESPN. He has proven since 2003 (and earlier, I'm sure, but I wasn't following his reports then) that it is still possible, in corporately-owned media, for one man to have a voice and to say the hard things that need to be said.

disclaimer: as I've mentioned before, I don't make enough money to be a Republican. for some, since I don't claim affiliation with that particular party, that means anything I might say or believe in can be discounted.

If this even sort of applies to you, then you need to watch the video on the other side of that link. It's not about politics. It's NOT about politics. It's about action and consequences.

And if anything can shake you, even a bit, then that can only be a good thing even if you disagree with the POV presented. And I'll admit, you may still disagree with Olbermann, and his take on events, even after hearing his eloquent argument. That's OK; but if you refuse ahead of time to even watch one video clip because it might argue against points you've (for whatever dumb reason) already decided on, then I feel sorry for you and sorry for what our nation has become.

because I know you're lazy, and you won't page up if you don't have to, here's the link again. click. watch. it's only 8 minutes of your day.

Hell, here's the damn thing as an embedded object. (I don't post video; I'm making an exception)



...and send the link to others.

Please
