Keith Olbermann analyzes Stimulus package misunderstanding

Is it just me, or are some Republicans just sounding like conspiracy theorists? And now Former Lieutenant Governor Betsey McCaughey is accusing the government of setting up a correspondence between doctors and the government to "guide" your doctors decisions. Well, the statements made by McCaughey were actual quotes from the bill, but they were (obviously) taken out of context. The medical database mentioned in the bill is actually there to "provide appropriate information to help guide medical decisions at the time and place of care". The way McCaughey mentioned it almost made it seem as if the government was going to control the people's medical proceedings. And this is the main reason I am accusing McCaughey of being a conspiracy theorists.
But MSNBC quickly caught up to the mistake, and sent its best and most brutal 'debunker', anchor Keith Olbermann, to clear up the obviously incorrect statement. In my opinion Olbermann is one of the best Liberal political minds in our society, and I for one believe that he should run for office. Watch the following video to see Olbermann doing what he does best, debunk.
