Keith Olbermann: On "taking decisive action and knowing how to respond in this atmosphere"

In a breathtakingly well-written Special Comment, Keith Olbermann tears into "the scum Breitbart" for his risibly fraudulent media machine and race-baiting politics. Significantly, he also points his finger at the mainstream media writ large, the White House, and Barack Obama himself, whom Olbermann rightly criticizes for his bending over backwards to appease the racist far right and the equally racist and opportunistic FOX News gang, even as their smear campaign to paint him as the usurping and illegitimate non-American socialist/fascist president who poses a grave threat to the nation continues apace.

This impassioned editorial is one of Olbermann's best ever; I can't think of enough superlatives to describe it, in fact.
