Keith Olbermann Offers to Pay for Sean Hannity's Water Time Fun
Well, this sounds like a really easy, really fun, really not-psychologically-damaging way for Sean Hannity to make 60 or 70 thousand dollars for the troops…
The debate over torture is getting personal for two of cable TV's prime-time hosts. After Fox News Channel's Sean Hannity made a seemingly impromptu offer last week to undergo waterboarding as a benefit for charity, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann leapt at it. He offered $1,000 to the families of U.S. troops for every second Hannity withstood the technique.
Olbermann repeated the offer on Monday's show and said in an interview Tuesday that he's heard no response. He said he'll continue to pursue it.
Man, if only I could afford it. I can't think of a better way to spend a couple grand.

Protip: the kind of balls it takes to go DURR HURR SURE U CAN WATERBOARD ME LOL IT'LL BE FUN on national TV are not the good kind of balls.
So maybe Hannity will realize how serious this is and stop making jokes about it on a "news show".
I don't know what flygirldreams is talking about. Olbermann should make a joke out of war crimes and be waterboarded for the sake of his ratings?
Keith Olbermann needs to grow a set of his own and stop envying those of others.
