Olbermann: Bush, Cheney should resign “I didn’t vote for him,” an American once said, “But he’s my president, and I hope he does a good job.

Of all of Olbermann's Special Comments, this is the one I've seen blogged, emailed, and talked about the most, and rightfully so.
What a patriotic way to celebrate the 4th of July.
Makes you long for the day of Nixon doesn't it?
Before they gave up any pretense of having any conscience or appearing to do the right thing.
Now they're only concerned about their hold on power and serving their own interests.
You shouldn't blame bush! His German "pilot" is suffering from premature commutation. See this post for more on "Bush's Pilot."
