MSNBC's Olbermann now "go-to guy for antiwar rhetoric"; words entered into Congressional Record
Advertisements [?]
U.S. News "Washington Whispers," by Paul Bedard
MSNBC Host: Now Playing in Congress

If he didn't make so much as host of MSNBC's Countdown, Keith Olbermann might be asking some very prominent lawmakers for speechwriting fees. That's because he's becoming the go-to guy for antiwar rhetoric. And, we're told, Olbermann's show-ending "special comments" have been entered into the Congressional Record at least twice. The last time occurred this month when West Virginia Democrat Nick Rahall, wowed by Olbermann's hit on President Bush's troop surge, called to get permission to include Olbermann's comments in Rahall's own House floor speech.
