Special Comment Tonite..Olbermann

Tonight at 8PM ET tune it for Keith's Special Comment about the President who would rather protect the telephone companies from the law than the American people from the terrorists.
Here's an excerpt:

In a Presidency of hypocrisy, an Administration of exploitation, a labyrinth of leadership, in which every vital fact is a puzzle inside a riddle wrapped in an enigma hidden under a claim of executive privilege supervised by an idiot, this one is surprisingly easy.
President Bush has put, protecting the Telecom giants from the laws…ahead of protecting you from the terrorists.
He has demanded an extension of the FISA law, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, but only an extension that includes retroactive immunity for the Telecoms who helped him spy on us.
Congress has given him, and he has today signed, a fifteen day extension, which simply kicks the time bomb down the field, and has changed nothing of his insipid rhetoric, in which he portrays the Democrats as 'soft on terror' and getting in the way of his Superhuman efforts to protect the nation... when, in fact, and with bitter irony, if anybody is 'soft on terror' here it is Mr. Bush.

2. Keith will have a post-debate special edition of "Countdown" & will do an updated version of the
10 eastern show. From the same link given in the OP:

Keith fans, you're in for a doozie tonight. Not only willl we have our traditional, super-awesome Countdown show at 8et, but we will also do a special post-debate coverage Countdown at 10pm (after Senator Clinton and Obama duke it out on CNN). Then at 11et, we'll do an updated version of the 10 o'clock show and at midnight it's back to the original Countdown re-broadcast. It's almost wall to wall Countdown (with a little Dan Abrams goodness sprinkled in) so cancel your plans, put the kids to bed early and make a fatty sandwich...this is going to be good.
