ABOUT THE NEWS HOLE

It's the new award-winning blog* from the cast and crew of the award-winning television news hour** "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."

We heard about this whole "blogosphere" business from Tom DeLay, and came to the immediate realization that we too, "needed to become involved" in it.

So here it is. Covering the big news, the small news, medium-sized and irregular, The News Hole strives to bring everything you love or hate about Countdown to the internets.

Your feedback and hate mail is encouraged.

Why are Christine and Kevin Garrad so happy?

Because that iPod may have just saved Kevin's life from an insurgent's bullet in Iraq.

At least that's the story posted with these incredible photos on Flickr.

Oh, please...all of us are protected by having the stinking carcass of Nancy iPelosi hung around our necks to net all incoming bullets from terrorists...a solitary utilization for an otherwise useless blob of malignant tumor.

Gee Zune Pod - Arizuna: Wish I had thought of that wording for a posting. Very appropriate. Except I would have substituted Nancy Pelosi with G W Bush.

So we can thank God for saving this mans life, we can also thank God for taking the almost 4000 others? I'm sorry, I don't get it. What did the others do to not be saved?

Maybe we should all get ipods for when hell is brought to U.S. soil. Unfortunatly, they won't save us from nuclear attacks or "terrorist" attacks.

Seagate HDDs are known to be nigh invulnerable when shot with AK47s(don't ask me how I know)but all of the ahtiests, Troofers and other assorted paxil gobbling freaks have no right to comment on what a volunteer(not conscript) thinks of this war.I didn't reup because I have kids now and upon joining knew that I could face war and death just by signing on the dotted line in the first place and this guy knew it too.Remember that after 9/11 800,000 people joined the US military expressly for the purpose of going overseas and pounding our enemies to rubbish so if you really gave a damned you would give these guys some support(maybe send them an iPod)and stop discouraging themn with your mentally ill diarrhea of the keyboard
