Olbermann's Kid Glove Treatment of Obama ... can you say biased?

The special commentary Keith Olbermann leveled at Sen. Hillary Clinton the other night was so over the top I refuse to post it on this blog. And his pontificating was triggered by a rather bland comment made by Geraldine Ferraro.

But what about comments made by Sen. Obama's spiritual mentor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright?


Now take a look at the kid glove treatment Olbermann gave to Sen. Obama, and THEN try and convince me there is no bias here:



ABC News reports:

In a campaign appearance earlier this month, Sen. Obama said, "I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial." He said Rev. Wright "is like an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with," telling a Jewish group that everyone has someone like that in their family.

And on another occasion said to ABC News:

"I would not repudiate the man," Obama said. "It's like a member of your family that says something that you really disagree with: You don't stop being a member of the family but you have to speak out forcefully on the issue."

Olbermann's bias is clear, and for that he owes all of us an apology.
