umc and i m going to get health care. can you hold my chicken? i ve been shot. and the comedian in chief. i happen to know my approval ratings are still very high in the country of my birth. all the news and commentary now on countdown. this is no ordinary dinner. good evening from new york. no confirmed reports as yet of oil having reached the shore, as a result of the massive oil spill in the gulf of mexico, but in our fifth story on the countdown tonight, huge numbers of dead jellyfish washing up along the beach on the mississippi coastline. meanwhile, the oil conglomerate bp attempting damage control for containment, as well as for its own image. the latter might be described as bribery. we begin with the effort to stem the volcano of oil spewing from the bed of the gulf, bp claiming some glimmers of progress today, a company spokesman say that crews have finished
our folks think that the oil of olay brand people and proctor & gamble in particular were advancing their former employee, and that s how it got in there. i think he was reading from his script. so somehow that got put in there, and how did it get put in there? well, if you look at the relationship between the story and the show s sponsor, i think it s pretty clear how it got in there. or maybe it was in the cincinnati newspapers, bub. we don t have a sponsor. we re not brought to you by anything. there are commercials during the show, but i don t see the commercials in the studio. we could be running ads for glenn beck and i d never know. we checked with commercial traffic department, there were no oil of olay ads for the show friday night. if you go to msnbc.com and watch countdown online, you might get an oil of olay commercial or toyota or oscar mayer. they rotate them somehow. i don t know. i don t know how. in fact, i don t even know anybody who works at msnbc.com.
room of only about 20 state and local officials, and the united states coast guard. bp came um, introduced themselves to everybody. when he found out that i was with the daily beast and the media, i was kindly asked to leave. it was actually governor crist got me back into the room, i waited by the elevator and just sort of walked in with his entourage, so they couldn t say much with the governor having his hand on my shoulder. is information from meetings like that trickling down? are local officials being briefed? are local resources, volunteers, being set up to be utilized to their fullest capacity as this thing becomes, you know, a shore problem and not just an ocean problem? it s really more of a sham. they tell us that they want our input. they have the escambia county here, they put their best minds at it, and they ve cup up with a plan to keep the oil out of pensacola bay and the santa rosa sound, and protect the fishes beds. but they submitted the plan on
i m sure they re lovely people. there s no conspiracy to keep david kikorian out of congress except, if hot dogs start driving toyotas over slicks made out of oil of olay, or tomorrow when voters go to the polls. runner-up, last week the rig was possible sabotage, even though he didn t have a shred of evidence, even though sabotaging a rig 52 miles out to sea and sabotaging a blowout preventer 5,000 feet down in the ocean would be a pretty neat trick. today, faced with the absurdity of the idea he switched. to minimizing the out-of-control spill in importance. i m not trying to minimize it here. but we do have all these, you know, ecology does take care of it. seawater is pretty tough stuff. try living in it for a while. oil has a tough time surviving in it. i guess he spent a lot of time trying to live in it. you know what else is natural according to rush? hemorrhoids. our winner, the chicken lady.
me as the kids say @keitholbermann. tonight s worst persons in the world. tv verse version. bronze, congressional nominee david core corian, he won for allegedly asking twice if someone with the name of his primary opponent could actually get elected. he responded, and as you ll find out shortly, may have just taken the hit and stayed down. keith olbermann is a buffoon for not checking his sources, for not even bothering to check. but here s one thing i will state. for the record, last night s program was sponsored by proctor & gamble s oil of olay brand, which is the exact brand that my opponent worked for. so how did they cover that story last night, who because i m sure keith olbermann is not reading the cincinnati press, so
