Countdown with Keith Olbermann TV Show - Countdown with Keith Olbermann Television Show - Yahoo! TV

I have been watching "Countdown" ever since I discovered the show. When people accuse Keith Olbermann of arrogance, they fail to recognize that he is, instead, a refreshingly intelligent commentator who presents factual information to support his personal viewpoints. The farther rightward the Republican Party marches, the more they attract those people who are too ignorant to know what is in their own best interests. The Republican Party is the party of big business. Big business consistently exports more and more jobs outside of the United States, leaving American workers jobless. How do you think we got into this economic mess. The other thing big business, in the guise of large national financial institutions, has caused a housing crisis by giving deceptive mortgage agreements to people who they know full well will not be able to meet the obligations to which they have committed themselves. Now those practices are causing people to lose their homes and, in some cases, relegating them to the ranks of the homeless. Health insurers represent another big business that looks out only for itself. Why should healthcare be a for-profit business? Is it really fair that people who are born with pre-existing conditions be denied healthcare coverage for life? Because health insurance is most often provided by employers, it gives them one additional reason to discriminate by failing to hire people with health problems. It's about time people wake up and see that most policies of the Republican Party do not benefit the vast majority of Americans. At least Keith Olbermann is intelligent enough to recognize this and he professes his reasons every weekday.
