He's a buffoon, he got himself in trouble, he got kicked off television, but now he's back.
But enough about Conan O'Brien. :-D Keith Olbermann, MSNBC's resident jokester, is also coming back tonight. I'm pleased to report that his suspension from the cable news channel has been been cut short by popular demand. Viewers have spoken, and they've made it clear that they do not want Olbermann taken off the air for donating $7200 to three Democratic congressional candidates.
Besides, Keith should be commended for distributing his money equally - $2400 for each candidate.
By the way, in New Jersey, the amount of money Olbermann donated to political campaigns is exactly how much money you need to have earned in a year to qualify for unemployment insurance. If Olbermann can afford to give that much money to politicians like Arizona congressman Raul Grijalva, folks who make it their life's work to insure that people have jobs secure and well-paying enough that they don't have to worry about qualifying for unemployment benefits, more power to him.
Keith Olbermann returns to the MSNBC airwaves tonight. He's already apologized to his fans for the "drama" this episode caused, and he's likely to have more to say about it on "Countdown" this evening.
Yeah, we tease him a lot, 'cause we got him on the spot. But welcome back, Keith, we always could spot a friend. :-)
