  <short_description></short_description>
  <description>Keith Olbermann's &quot;Special Comments,&quot; delivered on MSNBC's &quot;Countdown with Keith Olbermann&quot; have gained attention and praise for the unabashed way in which he takes governmental officials to task for their perceived misdeeds and misstatements.  The Los Angeles Times calls them &quot;blistering critiques of the country's leadership&quot; and the San Francisco Chronicle says the result has been a &quot;cultural earthquake.&quot;  On October 18th, 2006, in the wake of the passing of the Military Commissions Act, Olbermann delivered another shattering Special Comment about the loss of Habeas Corpus and &quot;a government more dangerous to our liberty than is the enemy it claims to protect us from.&quot;  In this Special Comment, Olbermann says the &quot;moral force we shined outwards to the world as an eternal beacon, and inwards at ourselves as an eternal protection&quot; is &quot;snuffed out.&quot;</description>
