Keith Olbermann goes missing, Kos Kidz in a tizzy
2009-07-24
"sloopydrew" @ Daily Kos

After a full week of a Keith-less Countdown; "Keith Olbermann has the night off," is turning into MSNBC's, "Hiking the Appalachian Trail."
"You don't suppose he has a girl in Argentina, do you?"
"Olbermann--with a girl?"
"Good point."

Nothing against David Shuster, as he does a good job, but the reason I have tuned into Countdown from the beginning is because of Keith.
"Without Keith to stoke my purple-faced rage, I might calm down and view the world rationally, and then Gaia only knows what might happen to me!"
If Keith is going to take extended, unexplained absences, he's going to have to let "Worst Person in the World" go. Right now it's essentially proprietary and only featured on the show when the show features Keith Olbermann. When Keith does come back, maybe he should name himself "Worst Person in the World" for leaving so long and so often.
Keith Olbermann, worst person in the world by his own admission. I could get behind that one.

#10  A Carradine? Well he verbally does that pretty much every night he's on TV.

#8  stopit, Hellfish! I'll be sooo disappointed when he merely resurfaces after a bender with a dead dwarf tranny and a rabid badger in his bed

#3  I thought it was Chrissie "tingles" Matthews who had the tingle in his leg.

Keith probably saw his own image in a pool and is now deeply, deeply, in love.

#2  No mystery. I have it on very good authority from friends at Mayo that he's there having the tingle in his leg removed - next week he goes to the Betty Ford Center to work on his coprolagnia problem.

#1  "Olbermann--with a girl?"

Nah, that's his own reflection in the mirror.
