As Twitchy readers know, Keith Olbermann ‘retired’ from political commentary yesterday.

And there was great rejoicing.

There were plenty of digs at Olbermann over his departure from being an annoying so-called political commentator, but no one hit him quite as hard (or as hilariously) as Iowahawk.

in other words, he's run out of places to be fired fromhttps://t.co/jOLzk4e8Cl

HA! How many times was he fired from ESPN? He could apply at Slate or Salon, they’d probably love him.

When GQ news fires you…

Ouch.

For once, Olbie sets a good example – for Stetler, Dowd, Acosta, Todd, etc . . .

YES! We can see this internal dialogue now:

Keith: Hey Keith, a word?
Keith: Sure, what’s up, Keith?
Keith: Sorry pal, but I’m gonna have to let you go.
Keith: BUT WHY?
Keith: We’re just not on the same page anymore.
Keith: *cries* I know, I’ve been feeling the same way.
Keith: Well, good luck to you.
