Dan Blather

I can hardly wait for Dan Rather to cover Barack Obama I am sure that he will be fair and ask hardball questions, NOT. The only thing Dan Rather will cover Barack Obama with is kisses and hugs.

Rather will make...

...Matthews look objective.

The debut of the first

The debut of the first actual BullS*** detector get a trial run.

The unit performed well on David Gregory and other traveling press pool, but the unit broke as they tested it on Dan Rather.

"We just didn't think that there could be that strong of a reaction from the detector, we'll have to recalibrate for larger readings." says the inventor.

My airplane imitation,

My airplane imitation, honey? Fake, but accurate.

Good one, NBB

I can just picture Rather buzzing his lips.

What you don't see in the pic, Dan

Is that Sandy Berger is next in line to be scanned by the document detector.

Dan to SS Agent  "pssst, honey, you're going to have to do your detecting a bit south of here for the fellow in line behind me". 

David Gregory, do you know which damn network you lie for? ~ Uncle Jimbo, @Blackfive

 

Danger to himself and others

Just making sure you don't have any sharp objects Mr. Rather.  We both know the doctor said those were a "no-no". 

When a liberal speaks, the truth is busy elsewhere.

Anchorman Dan Rather...

Former CBS anchorman Dan Rather was tased by the Secret Service today while franticly attempting to board Air Force One without press credentials.

Dan's reduced to this (Caption)

After losing his multimillion dollar anchor gig at CBS, Dan Rather is searched by Walmart security for shoplifting South Park DVD's in his trenchcoat.

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

Wait a moment...

Is that a "Lil Bush" DVD in his left breast pocket?

 

Look ... I'm Flying!

1st SS agent, "Oh great, the I.Q. meter is acting up again."

2nd SS agent, "Nope, he rides on the short bus!" 

 

Dan Rather Abducted?

Dan Rather insisted on being checked for radiation after claiming he was abducted by several little men. “They were about this high and looked like Karl Rove in smoking jackets” Mr. Rather told athorities, “They told me they were looking for missing TANG memos.” The Secret Service, who performed the radiation check, seemed skeptical.

This is the kind of comment we detest when we see it in their loony forums. I like poking fun at the loons as much as the next guy (or gal,) but please...we need to watch that we don't sink to their level.

Just one guy's opinion...(but hope mine isn't the only one.)
