Dear Mr. Oberman,

Maybe this is not the place, but I want to thank you for putting the "real light" on Bill O'Reilly. He has never reflected my views and frankly drives me crazy. I have "found" MSNBC and watch daily. I was impressed with your interview with Scott McClelland. Maybe he wants to be a political commentator? He seems "ripe" for the job to me. Good Luck. Do not change. Although all news now has an "entertainment value, you maintain integrity with me, and not unlike "black churches" you do not 'tippy-toe" around what needs to be said. Now if you have any influence on Russ Limbaugh it would be appreciated.

Sincerely,

Dale Duke

      The democrats should impeach themselves. They stood by and calculated when the Bush administration made their fraudulent case for invading Iraq. If the invasion suceeded they could wave the flag and get on board. If it failed they could point their collective fingers and say "shame shame". They chose political capitol over human life. The people I mourn for most are the Iraqi people who lived under the boot heel of OUR Tin Pot strongman for 25 years only to wind up buried under U.S. Bombs and Al-Queda insurgency. We need a complete change in leadership. These @!$%#ing cowards don't deserve one more day in office.

              This is unrelated to the story, today I was watching you and you reporting on John McCain with the new battery situation. Did you notice that McCain was not wearing a Flag Pin. Now does he wear it when it is convenient or should he be wearing it all the time. Just a thought.

                yes, the entire government has failed us- yet you applaud barack obama on his support of the FISA bill, a bill which will allow this failing government to spy on us WITHOUT warrants or oversight.
                sadly this country has failed itself, we voted for a guy we would like to have a beer with
                we believe the information that the "news" media dishes out to us

                rome is burning, and we are all watching dancing with the stars- thanks for pointing out the obvious keith

                  Is Oberman for real? Is this the same guy who had no problem with Clinton committing perjury? He goes off on a tirade about to burst a blood vessel distoring facts and offering no solutions. Extremeists of either side are a bore and it is no wonder that MSNBC has such low ratings. What a putz!

                    Mr. Oberman should be assigned to cover women's beach volleyball. There, at least, aren't too many political stories he can write and screw up. Wasn't he a sports commentator some time ago, or am I confused. Either way, Keith is a good reason not to watch MSNBC. Come to think of it, he is contributing to the sucess of FOX news.

                      To HIM or HER, not "to he or she." When in English do we ever say "to he" or "to she"? Your essay was nice, but when you use unnatural English, it's like a sour note in a beautiful concerto.
