Obama couldn’t sell watermelons

March 9th, 2010 | No Comments

That’s what Dan Rather said. Now, I would have said “ice to an eskimo”, or “s**t to farmer”. But, that would be stereotyping. In Chris Matthews minds, connecting a black man to watermelons is nothing to blink an eye at. Some people will fein shock and horror at Dan for being so, well, obvious. Me, [...]

Dan Rather bites the hand that fed him

September 20th, 2007 | No Comments

Dan Rather filed a $70 million lawsuit against CBS and his former bosses Wednesday, claiming they made him a “scapegoat” for a discredited story about President Bush’s military service during the Vietnam War. The 75-year-old Rather, whose final months were clouded by controversy over the story, said the actions of the defendants damaged his reputation [...]

Keith Olbermann melts down again

July 5th, 2007 | 1 Comment

I subscribe to most major news feeds. I do it because some media like to report some things, others will report other things. It’s just the nature of the beast of trying to stay somewhat informed. Because of this, I subscribe to MSNBC. They’re really good at getting the garbage news like what Paris Hilton [...]

Pt 1 Pt 2 Pt 3 Pt 4 Pt 5 Pt 6 Rather’s trump card was verification by a person named Major General Hodges. Look for headlines over the next day or two of Hodges recanting his “testimony” on 60 Minutes II. And Dan will STILL stick by his story, because he wants it to [...]

P 1 P 2 P 3 P 4 P 5 Pt 6 I am shamelessly stealing yet another post from The Motley Fool. This one’s by one of my favorite posters, MichaelRead, a charter member of The Motley Fool where this post originally appeared. ( He told me to say that, so I am. ) [...]

The War on Terror

September 8th, 2004 | No Comments

A few days ago, I wrote a long article, concluding with: “Straighten your house Islam, I don’t like feeling this way.” I know a lot of people aren’t going to believe this, but I subscribe to SaudiArabia.net. I do it for a reason, I don’t trust media enough to rely solely on it as my [...]
