If you think for a second the left champions civil liberties then you have truly earned the moniker Melodic Rock's resident nut job.
Olbermann shrouds the diarrea flowing out of his mouth as journalism. Beck points out time and time again that he IS conservative and his "view points" (note the lack of the word NEWS) are rooted in conservative ideology. Can you say the same about Olbermann? I think not...
Until Olbermann's liberal views manifest themselves in more ways than the occasional show ending op-ed or "Worst Persons", it remains a non-issue.
When he transcends into genuinely advocating policy, like Hannity, Beck, or Limaugh, then you got a fair point.

Considering the fact Olbermann had a virtual on-air orgasm when describing Hillary's speech to the DNC as a "Home run", my money is on Olbermann becoming one of the Obama administrations biggest cheer leaders.
Considering Olbermann was the single reporter to hold Hillary to account for her repeated use of the Bobby Kennedy analogy (while everyone else would have you believe it was a one-off gaffe), I am willing to take that wager.
