Description: CBS Anchorman Dan Rather and his news crew return to the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) after touring the island of Sumatra, Indonesia.
LOL!!!
Thanks for this!
I thought wearing a flightsuit had nothing to do with safety - it was all image. Right, Danny Boy!?
Anyone who flies knows that a flightsuit is a safety requirement. I'm wondering if Danny will be confessing on TV tonight? Or, maybe apologizing? Do you think?
GWB got an jump-suited action figure, maybe Dan can have a bobblehead.
Ping
You can tell that he knows that the forged documents will be remembered and is desperate to make some new impression before heading into oblivion.
"Well, out here aboard 'Honest Abe' the wind in Bay of Bengal is blowing harder than a spring gale banging up against a west Texas outhouse."
"Well, out here aboard 'Honest Abe' the wind in Bay of Bengal is blowing harder than a spring gale banging up against a west Texas outhouse."
The exposure is wrong. Hardly worth captioning, but here goes anyway...
"What are these cups for in this jacket?"
Please excuse double post...my computer is tired today.
It repulses me that he's even allowed to touch foot on the USS Abraham Lincoln!
I almost died laughing when Jay Leno did a whole mini video on all those stupid sayings of Dan's during the election!
Dan Rather in a flight suit? Ha hahahahahahahahaha HA!
I can only hope someone comes up with some Rather news quotes mocking W in a flight suit.
That's okay. It was funny both times.
For heaven sake. Sorry, Dan, you don't measure up to that other guy. Hilarious.
One finds it hard to believe that approval would be given for this man to be allowed to use a photo-op on the USS Abraham Lincoln (honest Abe must be spinning) for his next Bush-bashing segment!
He, no doubt, may use this footage when he campaigns for the next Far Left presidential candidate (flight suit and all).
Hope the idiot falls over the side and no one sees it.
I looked - can't find anything yet. I'll look more later. Duty (work) calls.
I stayed up that night and laughed myself silly with each new idiot statement out of Blather's mouth. His co-anchors were in stunned silence.
In fact, I don't think Dan has called Ohio yet.
Fashion note: Fat old leftists should never wear flight suits.
This zipper's tighter than a fiddle string at an all day bluegrass concert.
It looks like he's holding up the show.
This is a keeper!
Just proves he's either really jealous of "W" or a "W" wannabee!
Somebody's just gotta photocrop this with a "Mission Accomplished" sign hanging over Dan's head! And then we have to send it to all the media outlets! What a hoot!
Oh my. For some reason he doesn't look as good in a flight suit as the CIC.
"Now, tell me again. How do I cinch this outfit up so I look as hot as Bush in it?"
***Note that the sign is in TIMES NEW ROMAN font!
Happy New Year to you!
Thank you. May you and yours have a blessed year as well.
Me too!!!
This is as funny as an old hog dressed in pink polka dot silk and a straw hat on hot Texas day...
Dan Blather picked the wrong side....oh my what happened to his days in Houston, Texas when he was a Texan with conservative ideals. He is a disgrace....we would rather NEVER CLAIM this commie.
That looks more like a fatique jacket with a flotation device around his neck. The web belt is not standard issue on a flight suit.
and:
These might appear to bright or too dark on your monitor depending on how it's set up, but they should look better than the originals that were apparently raw images.
"...maybe Dan can have a bobblehead."
Not exactly a bobbleHEAD - Dan Rather's ought to be special. Not a moving head, but a fixed, transparent one with just his face on the front, and a tiny brain on a resilient brainstem bouncing around inside the empty expanse. In fact, a lot of actors, politicians, and other "opinion leaders" could be represented this way.
So is CBS going to reimburse taxpayers for the cost of transporting Gunga Dan...?
"What are these cups for?"
Maybe one of the talented folks on FR will do just that!!!
Sean Hannity would probably like a copy also!
Ping thanks, Aeronaut.
It's not your computer. Lately, I've had to go to My Comments (Pings) to confirm post success. For some reason, my post rarely if ever shows up on the thread page after clicking the Post button. I'm guessing that's an unintended consequence of some other site improvement.
"Somebody's just gotta photocrop this with a "Mission Accomplished" sign hanging over Dan's head! And then we have to send it to all the media outlets! What a hoot!"
My message in Post 44 referred to the above comment by you!!
The photo looks a helluva lot more like the faux "homeless vet" on the street corner panhandling, than the studly ace pilot known as GWB.
He just doesn't have what it takes to wear that.
