He's only 49!! I don't see anything in this wiki entry that says he's married...

He's younger than Viggo!

I love you, Keith. I called you my boyfriend to the post-doc at work the other day, and I guess I must have seemed especially pie-in-the-sky in luuuuuuurrrveee because she wasn't sure that I wasn't being sincere. "Wait, he's your boyfriend?" She wasn't asking because she didn't know who Keith Olbermann was; she was just confused because I seemed to be entirely serious. (And possibly cuckoo.)

I wuv you, Keith, okay? ::pets:: Now, some honest criticism since I've been kinda obsessively watching Countdown with My Future Husband for a few weeks now. You, um, need to be a better interviewer a lot. I mean, you have pre-interviews, so you know what these people think. You really defeat the point of having an interview when you turn them into an echo chamber by stating their major thesis at them before they can even speak. Stop that, naughty boy, no cookie. (No metaphorical duvet either, thank you, Pushing Daisies.)

But yes, I love you still, Keith Olbermanns. This helps:

For those of you keeping score, my ideal man should be a confident, bushy-eyebrowed, possibly homicidal sociopath who is also capable of righteous fury on behalf of liberal causes. ::licks Keith::

And Rachel? The fact that you are a lesbian makes me hopeful, I'm not going to lie. It means my also-love for you could, one day, be returned! Alas, you are in a relationship. Well, I wish you luck. Your brand of intelligent snark is truly quality, but I won't be a heart-breaker. Keep on keeping on, you fabulous woman.

ETA: Oops! Forgot this gem.

At least Keith can sympathize with that last one. I told [livejournal.com profile] feiran and [livejournal.com profile] darkling1 and she was disappointed that the phrase wasn't "tax cunt" because she finds that phrase hi-larious. Sounds like a perfect LJ surname, no?

Also, you have a lot of people on line for Rachel Maddow ahead of you. Just sayin'.

Smart thoughtful people are hot.

Heeeee, I love that this is the first comment on this. If it ever comes down to it, it's going to be an UGLY SCENE with all of us fighting over her. It's probably for the best that she isn't single. ;)

Also, as for Keith, you have to get over both his girlfriend AND his ridiculous crush on Rachel. I strongly suspect that if it weren't for Katy he might be trying to climb into her lap or something between shows.

But it says it right there in the personal life section: "Olbermann lives with Katy Tur, a reporter with WPIX-TV, in New York City."

Still, what is fandom good for if not imagining out real-life significant others??? ;)

DAMN MY EYES, WHY CAN'T I READ!?!

I truly have become the laziest user of teh interwebs because I didn't see anything listed as "partner" (like it was on Rachel's page), so I got my hopes up.

NICE ICON, BY THE WAY. (TWEEEE!!!)

They totally are! Also, Rachel is just beautiful. I mean that with no qualifications. Every thing she is is made of win, and it just shines through.

?? I find him totally annoying. Weird. You must have terrible taste or something. :)

Or something. He's a silver fox, and you know it.

You are a complete and utter loon.
Also, wildly entertaining.
Best of luck with your stalking.

Apparently, he has a girlfriend!? OH NOES.

My mom calls Olbermann "our Rush Limbaugh". I will admit that I can see his appeal in much the same way you do.

Oh, I totally get that. Being the skeptic I am, even when someone is shouting things I like at stuff, I'm still enough of a realist to go, "Yeah, and this isn't really better than what the conservo-heads are doing."

For instance: each time Olbermann does the "Worst Persons in the World" sketch, I pretty much roll my eyes. Even when the people in it suck a lot, you can only put Bill O'Reilly on there so many times before it looks really, really petty.

Lol. I especially liked his "are you smarter than a 3rd grader" commentary on Sarah Palin and how she still doesn't know what the VP does. She'd have to read the Constitution in order to do that, and what with all the newspapers (ALL of them) she's got to read every day, who has the time? :-P

I love that. Rachel Maddow hit her on it, too, and she's like really smart and doing it from her cheeky angle, and I loved it.

Hah! I can never be sure how serious he is, but you gotta love this part:

To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. “Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?”

To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.

Yes, that seems to be the pull-out quote of the election :-P and now, in other news, gasp! He didn't even see it coming apparently... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/22/terrence-howard-shocked-a_n_136738.html

I saw that. My immediate impression was, "Wow, Marvel Studios really wants to tank their own projects." This is no less the third major tinkering and shitting around behavior that I've read about--first they wouldn't promise to re-hire the man who gave them their only definitive hit (Jon Favreau), then they tried to sabotage Ed Norton's Hulk movie, and now this. You cannot treat talent like this, not in this day and age, and still hope to keep it or attract anyone aside from the desperate.

God help them if they try to monkey with Kenneth Branaugh when he does Thor...

If you check out my tags you will not that I have long had a "Keith Olbermann is my boyfriend" tag. Though truth be told Keith Olbermann is really like the hot professor I want to hook up with. (I cheat on husband/baby daddy, Jon Stewart, with KO.)

YES, that's totally it: hot professor shagging. That's what it is. He's all "time to learn, class," and I'm all, "Oh, yes please."
