Dan Rather clarification

It is worth reminding ourselves that Dan Rather's credibility as a jouralist was severely compromised at least as far back as the 1970s when he was the presentor in the one-sided anti-hunting documentary "The Guns of Autumn".  Rather just missed his calling, he was the original Michael Moore.

Not to mention how he ambushed then Prez George H Bush live on his nightly news broadcast and then did not let the prez respond !!

Dan Rather is an idiot. And that s all there is to it.

I remember during the last election when he thought Gore was ahead. He was a smiley, happy and when they announced that it was a mistake the look on his face made you think he had just seen his mother get shot.

How did liberals get such a bad name? I think we really mean "socialists".

When I was young being liberal or liberal minded meant you were open to lots of possibilities and willing to consider various possibilities. It was a good thing. Boy has that turned around now. These "liberals" are as close minded as it gets and will consider no way but there way.

You said it better than I could, GB. If I look up "liberal" and the political sense of "left", I feel comfortable identifying myself as a left-wing liberal. I really don't consider myself "conservative", except in a few matters of great importance, like interpreting the constitution in the way it was originally intended to be interpreted, and in marriage being a heterosexual institution.  Of course, this sort of extremeist right-wing lunatic thinking labels me as a fascist bubba in many circles today (the life membership in the NRA, the truck, and the hunting dog probably don't help my image in those circles either.)

Dang! I think I'm going to have to miss the debate tonight.

BALLAD OF DAN RATHER

(Sung to the tune from the Beverly Hillbillies)

Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Dan,
The documents were fake and he didn't give a damn;
He put 'em on the air, an' he thought he'd done the job,
But up from the web come a howlin' mob.

Blogs, that is.
Web logs.
Checkin' facts.

Well, the first thing you know ol' Dan's a-runnin' fast;
Made a false report an' it bit him in the azz;
He said 'dog-gonnit, I done thought I'd get away!'
But it turned out to be his a-reckonin' day.

Busted, that is.
Red-faced.
Mud in the eye.

Well, now it's time to say goodbye to Dan and all his men;
And they would like to shoot you folks for turnin' them in;
You're all invited back next week to watch the Evening News,
And see which correspondent's picked to fill Dan's empty shoes.

Y'all come back, now, hear?

Winston Churchill said;When you are 20 if you are not a Liberal you have no heart,when you are 40 if you are not a Conservative you have no brains'
Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like fire, it is
a dangerous servant and a fearful master. -- George Washington
