Former MSNBC and ESPN host Keith Olbermann quipped that Senator Mitt Romney of Utah shouldn't continue his family lineage. It was a remark made in response to Romney wishing Americans a Merry Christmas.

"Somebody gift these people vasectomies," Olbermann said of Romney's large family—the immediate context here being about the senator's large family. According to the Pew Research Center, people of the Mormon faith have more children than Americans in most other religious groups.

Romney cited his faith in early 2020 as one of the reasons behind his vote in favor of impeaching former President Donald Trump.

This isn't the first time this month that an Olbermann gaffe caught people's attention. At the beginning of December, he accused Barstool Sports of fascism in a comment about the Oxford High School shooting.

Romney's colleague Senator Cruz of Texas condemned Olbermann for his bitterness. "This is the Left today. Angry. Bitter. Hateful. @MittRomney is blessed with a beautiful family, wonderful kids & grandkids, bound together by love. And that, apparently, is infuriating for @KeithOlbermann," he tweeted. "Really sad."

"What a weird thing to say."

"Imagine hating this much life + love."

"Children are a gift from the Lord, they are a reward from Him."

"Keith Olbermann has no children. Just an empty penthouse near Central Park where he yells at people about vaccines all day like the Scrooge."

"BRB… gonna make another baby."

"Aside from this just being a pretty vile comment, having a large (and observably happy) family…is now…a bad thing?"

In the past, Olbermann said that people like Justice Amy Coney Barrett and Vice President Mike Pence needed to be removed from society. Naturally, he was on the forefront of the progressive stack demanding Trump's ban from Twitter.

As for Romney, at the tail end of the Trump administration, supporters of the former Republican president heckled Romney on an airplane. They ended up being placed on a no-fly list as punishment.

Coincidentally, a story about liberals getting neutered in an act of protest against the potential overturning of Roe v. Wade was in the headlines earlier this week.
