Joe Scarborough showed it this evening. It's not just the language that Rather used -- it's his smarmy, facial expressions along with his derisive voice inflections.
Ratherbiased lives up to his name once again. Pure Blather!
He's not gonna want to hear that it was the dems who leaked the story.
Oh, you must have been hallucinating. The lead up to the CBS nightly news said it was going to be a no holds barred interview.
Isnt this great? You know damn well if this was someone from our side they would be howling 24/7 about the impropriety of it all.
Hello, CBS program directors! Have you ever thought about this disconnect??
This would be even worse if Dan Rather still had an audience. I think only Cronkite and Sandy Berger were tuned in for this one. We'll forgive you for channel surfing and "inadvertently" seeing Danny Boy in action.
The Old Media isn't simply helping Kerry, it's more like Kerry is just their front man. The Old Media is doing the heavy lifting while Kerry takes one vacation after another.
What scares me is that the Old Media won't even care about the harm they do to our nation when they support Kerry's legal challenges to the election results in numerous states. They'll just repeat "count every vote."
I saw it Tuesday night and it was really a new low, even for Rather. His line was that the whole deal was a Republican dirty trick. I hope there's a wave of complaint about his total bias and dishonesty. (but I wouldn't hold my breath)
And their target audience is too busy watching "Will and Grace" sydnicated reruns on a local channel.
Is Dan Rather still alive???? Shoot! I thought he went "room temp" years ago.......
I don't watch Rather on CBS. A much better spot for news is Daly on the Comedy Channel.
Danny will be 73 this October. Rather and his audience are fading fast before the inexorable tick-tick-tick of the actuary's tables.
Your signup date here says you're not a newbie, so what's the problem again?

from tonight's show.Here's the info from Rather's show, including the intro from Ratherbiased.com
The only argument Berger can have is the timing. The only problem Kerry has is the timing. Timing and politics go hand in hand. This isn't the YMCA "everyone wins" concept. Berger is a thief, got caught, worked for Clinton and Kerry, what does Berger expect? It's about time the Republicans got the gloves off, if they did leak this. Good for them! Republicans have been getting hit left and right with the propaganda stick by the libs while not fighting back. Now the libs start crying when they get hit with the truth stick.
I went to cbs.com today just to see how SeeBS handled the Berger incident. It was absolutely pathetic. I wish I had a better word b/c "pathetic" doesn't even begin to describe it. It was: "Republicans accuse Sandy Berger....Democrats and even Republicans question the timing of the leak..... The Justice Department says criminal charges will probably not be filed." Gag me!!
I'm paraphrasing but believe me it was terrible. And then when Reagan passes he closes the show with a quivering lip. Either I just don't get the guy or he is every bit as good of an actor as XXX42 (which ain't that great if you asked me).
I'd Rather not watch it either.
