Countdown Smackdown!

Keith Olbermann sticks it to O'Falafel:

OLBERMANN: But first, time for Countdown's list of today's three nominees for "Worst Person in the World."

Bronze, maybe we can just permanently bronze him. The latest is a flat-out threat against columnist Frank Rich and editor Bill Keller of The New York Times. He says the Times has been unfair in its coverage of the Bush White House. So quoting him, again: "If they want to attack people personally, then we're going to have to just show everybody about their lives."

Bill, nobody cares about their lives. If people cared about the personal lives of people in newspaper or TV, you would be working the change booth at a video arcade by now.

Uh, Bill...I don't think that's tahini...

As Atrios so eloquently put it:

Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!
Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!
Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!Falafel!
