Forgive the sarcasm-impaired. Jerry Lewis should hold a telethon for them, too.

How far can Geraldo sink. His spots have been hilarious as he leans over into the wind at a 45 degree angle.

Glad you're not a kook, but calling me a dummy seems a bit excessive.

Hey..everyone screws up once in a while..
suck it up, take it like a man, forget it and have a nice day.

I don't think mere mortals like us we can imagine the depths to which Heraldo can sink.

There is that "Al Capone's vault" Jerry Rivers could sink back to. What's almost as entertaining are the Weather Channel info babes with their grossly-oversized rain jackets flapping around in the breeze.

The DEMS cried that a Homeland Security threat was posted on the Sunday after the DNC.., all we get after the RNC is uninterrupted FRANCES. I know it's a holiday weekend and no one in the news media wants to work, but sending the third team bench warmers 24/7 to flap in the breeze and totally ignore big news (job numbers, this capture, Bush afterglow) is a dereliction of duty.
I won't whine beyond that, less be considered a media girley-man.

There is also a report that an aide to Abu-Mus'ab al-Zarqawi was arrested in the city of Ba'qubah today. No official confirmation yet.

I see Geraldo on the screen and I think, "rogue wave NOW!" The funniest bit I saw was Al Roker on MSNBC yesterday. Lester Holt showed a shot of Roker being lashed by the wind & said, "We'll talk to Al Roker after the break." Roker said, "Lester, take your time. I'm having fun here," in a voice dripping with sarcasm. I chortled through the commercials.

But if al-Douri is caught--and I hope this is confirmed soon--it's a GREAT catch. Oh, yeah.

"Now back to our complete coverage of reporters in Fla standing in a storm."

Please, Fox, MSNBC, anyone, we sympathize with the folks in Florida, but this is just way over the top. On the other hand, if Kerry is out there doing anything, we're not hearing about it (could cut both ways), and we have all our FReepers attending Bush rallies and checking in with pics and reports, so it's not all bad.

IMHO, the more face-time a shaken Kerry & Edwards get, the better for Bush. These guys are on the rope and flailing wildly.
